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
a result, he waited too long to make the decision to perform an
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.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. —Psalm 23:4 |
When
fear is overwhelming, the Lord is there. His
comforting presence will
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 |

Me buscarán y me encontrarán cuando me busquen de todo corazón. (Jeremías 29:13) Muchos saben sobre la vida de Jesús y sus milagros principales, pero pocos lo conocen a él de verdad. Conocer a Jesús va más allá de saber quién es él. No se le puede conocer sin buscarlo de verdad. Aquel que busca su presencia en espíritu y en verdad lo encontrará (Juan 4:23-24). Conocer a Jesús es andar según su Palabra y ser un imitador suyo (1 Corintios 11:1). Más que querer o decir palabras, es necesario actuar, decidir. Cuando buscamos a Jesús de todo corazón, él se nos revela. Esa cercanía con él transforma nuestra vida. Si aún no has tenido esa experiencia, búscala. ¡Jesús también desea conocerte! Conociendo a Jesús Para conocer a Jesús, lo primero que necesitas hacer es invitarle. Abre tu corazón y deja que Jesús entre en tu vida. Acéptale.Lee el Evangelio de Juan y sabrás cuánto Jesús te ama. Búscalo en oración. Dedica un tiempo de tu día para hablar con él. Para orar: Jesús, quiero conocerte más...
