Inside your soul have you changed?

Another year is coming to an end. Thank you for reading my articles that I always post in this space. I have reached different countries, bringing the Word of God through texts inspired by the Holy Spirit.

I changed the format, putting it in a short text, always an impactful message. But have you in your soul really changed? Or do you keep repeating the same actions that have been with you for several years?

If you are married, have you been a great father or mother? Are you affectionate or affectionate, sweet or sweet, do you make your home an altar to the Lord? How is your relationship with money? Do you boss him or is it the other way around?

Do you consult God in all the decisions you are going to make, especially the simplest ones, or even, in your assessment, without any impact on your routine? Do you prefer to close the bedroom door and talk secretly with Jesus or do you lean on anyone's shoulder?

Days

Do you spend more time on social media than meditating on the Word of the Lord? As you look back on this year that is coming to an end, how many times have you pleased Jesus Christ and made the devil nervous or the opposite?

Never forget that everything that exists in this world, where we are passing through, is futile. Even the feasts of the world, which at most last three days, soon come to an end. Even the quick pleasure provided by drugs is a very quick thing.

Only the Word of the Lord is eternal. It is always fulfilled, regardless of our will, our ugly face, our bad mood or even annoyance. Contrary to what many pastors say, God doesn't need any of us.

Before the universe existed, He was God and will remain God eternally. Without Jesus Christ we cannot even dodge the arrows and darts launched by darkness to overthrow us. So before this New Year's Eve, take time to talk to God.

Years

Turn off your cell phone, TV or anything else that distracts you. If you prefer, go out for a walk in the streets or look for a quiet park and have a quality dialogue with Jesus Christ. Ask the Lord to change you forever. Do not repeat the same behavior that has been with you for many years.

Excellent 2023 to you and your whole family. Keep letting the light of Jesus Christ shine brightly in your face. May your life always be a source of joy for God, never of shame or humiliation. Be happy always in the Lord.
