Is there hope for me? Is there hope for my marriage? Could it be that at this age I can get a job? Could it be that my financial situation is going to change? Is it going to touch me all my life with this disease? Questions full of uncertainty swirl, that woman with Covid symptoms, unbearable, only thinks about her two children, what will become of them if I am missing? The husband apparently did not look worried but his interior makes a reflection, and he thought; “Although I walk in a valley of shadow and death, my heart will not fear any evil because you are with me, you are my shepherd and I will lack nothing”, that woman in the specialty clinic waiting her turn for a biopsy for the Oncologist, who detected signs of breast cancer, the days have passed slowly with small moments of depression but with a hope: “cry out to me and I will answer you” and that is what I am doing I cannot lose hope. That 10-year-old man on hemodialysis clings to a promise; He is on the waiting list, and in the waiting he says: “For this every saint will pray to you in the time that you can be found … and you are my refuge: you will keep me from anguish.” That lecturer three weeks before prepared with great care his message called: “PREPARE YOUR THINGS BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING”, an allusion that people are preparing this end of the year with certain customs so that this year that begins will go well: red clothes for love , yellow for money, take out the suitcases to go on a trip, make a toast, eat grapes, break a plate, kiss your partner, well there are many superstitions that people around the world do to make it go well, unfortunately this speaker three weeks after his speech he died of Covid. The people who heard him couldn’t believe it and only said about him: “He looked so strong and vigorous that I wouldn’t believe it.” Certainly life said Santiago the Apostle: How do you know what will become of your life tomorrow? Your life is like the mist of dawn: it appears for a while and then disappears. The problem could feel natural if we listen to the voices what people say, it even seems like Vitor’s program, one hundred Mexicans said. They see all things negative because of what they hear and not because of what the word of God says. Certainly it is good to reflect on being grateful to God and to life, we have that opportunity to jump this very difficult year from 2021 to 2022 but a new year and a new hope, to be grateful for everything that happened, good or bad, and we know that those who they love God, all things work together for good, that is, those who are called according to his purpose. People say: have faith, yes, but where do they sell it? Is it by kilos or how do they pack faith? More faith by hearing and hearing the word of God. If you don’t listen to the word of God then you can’t have faith, it’s that simple: we just celebrated a Christmas about which many write with great courage, that Jesus was not born in December, and that the scriptures and their sales announcements are not there. very angry it will be open all day, I do not celebrate Christmas. It is certainly not certain that Jesus was born at Christmas, but it happens that his birth marked a Before Christ and an After Christ, and it is the most sensitive month where even the most staunch enemies of the gospel say Merry Christmas remembering that child who was born with these attributes: “For a child has been born to us, a son has been given to us, the government will rest on its shoulders, and it will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. His government and peace will never end. Certainly God is not impressed by titles, riches the highest that man can reach, God is impressed by a broken heart which he does not despise. Preparing for the next year is learning to forgive yourself, in order to forgive and receive forgiveness from God. Life is very short and we do not know when we will have an encounter with God, therefore let us shed all weight that beset us, hatred, resentment, and enjoy this new year with a new hope in the one who left his throne of Glory, to humanize and dwell among us and give us hope of Life and life in abundance.
Happy New Year 2022.
