Terrifying MomentsBen AyalaWhen our first
child was born, my wife, Marlene, was in labor for more than 30 hours,
creating tremendous stress for both her and the baby. The
doctor, a fill-in for her regular physician, was unfamiliar with her
and her pregnancy. As

emergency Caesarean section, and the resulting trauma put our infant
son in the neo-natal intensive care unit. There was nothing they could do to help our baby to overcome his trauma-induced condition. By God’s grace, Matt recovered—but I cannot remember any moment in my life as terrifying as when I stood by his crib in intensive care.Yet I knew the Lord was near as I talked with Him through prayer.

carry us through our deepest trials. When
peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll— Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say, “It is well, it is well with my soul.” —Spafford |

El mundo que nos rodea puede estar lleno de desafíos, pero la Biblia nos enseña que cuando buscamos a Dios, encontramos fuerza, paz y dirección para nuestras vidas. Buscar a Dios significa ponerlo a él primero, confiar en él y buscar su presencia todos los días. Cuando oramos, leemos la Biblia y adoramos a Dios, nos conectamos con él y recibimos su poder. Este poder nos fortalece para afrontar cualquier dificultad y nos da valentía para luchar las batallas diarias. La cobertura del poder de Dios ocurre cuando permitimos que el Espíritu Santo actúe en nuestras vidas. Él nos da sabiduría, nos guía y nos ayuda a vivir según la voluntad de Dios.
