Some thoughts regarding... our indentity
Deborah-Leigh:
I got a warm and comforting impression after reading your post Moises, that God is influencing your thoughts, impressions, feelings and conclusions to conform to what is pleasing to Him. Yes ~ The Kingdom of God is within, not without in the multitude of class distinctions, economic variables and among the thorns choked with cares, riches and pleasures of this life, that bring no fruit of His Spirit to Perfection.

Hi.
I have decided to post a new subject on these old tread, well, it was just made these present year in August. The reason is because I would not like to make a brand new one just for these.
Some here on the forum know that I was on a long trip since a couple moths ago. --From south center mexico I took a bus to texas and from there I took a plain to NY in the beginning of August. I was able to stop by to visit friends and alike minders, and in one occasion I almost was able to met again with other very meaningful people that I met at the Alabama's conference.
Then, in september I departed to the UK from NY, that was part of the plan since I was invited. Dave UK and her wife Karen welcome me gladly. I have been in contact with him since we met at the last year conference. Now at the present moth; november, I am back in mexico.
I believe I did a lot with very little. I still can verily assimilate these blessed past moths that felt to me like a couple of precious years to my perception.
I had many motives to make this long trip. Plus, since I still have many years ahead of me, I took these opportunity. In the UK I also was able to met more alike minders that behave very kind and gentle with me, and that also helped me out when they had a chance, just like Dave and Karen did. Dave is fortunate to be able to share the truths taught on these site with her. I was living in a small community and was very greatfull for the time spend there. Plus I had opportunity to go an admire many great landscapes in that nice region of the world.
So now I am back from where I departed from the beginning, and I am glad that I am not totally alone in my believes at these region of the world with such a nice template weather. Since I arrived I have been kind of busy, however, my mind is clear and running fast, I have been encoraged to hopefully keep on building an spiritual edifice.
One good memory of before departing the UK was a last meal-dinner reunion that we all had with another couple of brothers where we had a great time.
Even so, some trials at traveling, that I experienced, I would not dare to complain. I keep on seeing over and over again, how everything is preordained and when good and bad things that have very little possibilities to happen, do happen to you, --you have more evidences and proves of this truth. Another thing that I have noted lately is how we seem to be able to advance or grow faster, under certain amount of pressure. And God knows exactly how much heat do we need.
I guess that I could entertain many of you with personal stories or as they call them adventures, but, I no time for it, I am still a young (and please I would not like to be looked down because of it). And as I hear before; 'to know that the God of peace will be with us' when we are thankfull with what we already have and know ''is what makes it all worth it.''
By the way, I don't like the word adventure when talking about my trip, it feels to me as if I would just be going wherever the wind blows, looking for excitement, when these is not the case. Really, I am not a conventional tourist at all.
'' be constantly fleeing (taking flight from) these things. But
continuously pursue (rapidly follow and chase) fair and equitable dealings in right
relationships in the Way pointed out (justice), faith (trust; trustworthiness),
love, remaining under in patient endurance, meek and gentle sensitivity (mildness of
temper).'' Timothy 6:11
and how I wish these,
18. to be habitually doing good acts (working profitably), to continue being rich in beautiful
deeds (ideal acts; excellent works), to be liberal contributors (ones good with giving), ones
in community (ones who partner and share; fellow participants),
At these region of the world, I hardly can see what is next. It is not a bad ideal to be rethinking the present
empty ideologies found at this present predominating society. --(this last saying; way too generally speaking, I know)
Deborah-Leigh:
Dearest little brother in years, Big Brother in Spirit, Moises,
Your shared insights and experiences you have written, remind me of the love and affection that Paul had for Timothy. 8)
Your message makes my day, Moises, to see how much you have grown through the travells God caused you to experience in the UK.
To the Brethren of Christ, who served,shared, blessed and provided for you, THANK YOU! 8)
Your sister in Christ
Deborah
