NO ONE IS BEYOND GOD ’S GRACE Freedom Notes July—September 2016 Vol. 2 Issue 3
UNSEARCHABLE RICHES by Scott Taylor
Off the south shore of Nova Scotia, Canada lies a small private Island that is comprised of 140 acers. The Island has long been the center of a great mystery that has brought famous men to its shores. Some of those famous people ranged from Franklin Delano Roosevelt to John Wayne. It all began in the summer of 1795 when a young teenager wandering around on the island came across a strange depression in the ground that appeared to be man-made. The teen had long heard stories that pirates had used the island to hide valuable treasure. He quickly returned home to get a few friends to help him dig the area he had discovered. After working tirelessly for several days what they found inspired them to keep digging. Just two feet below the surface they found a layer of flagstone covering a pit. As they continued to dig they discovered that every 10 feet someone had put oak logs covering the pit. After 8 years and a lot more help they quickly dug to the depth of 90 feet discovering a stone in-scribed with mysterious writings. After removing the logs and the stone at 90 feet the hole began to flood. After numerous attempts to pump out the water it appeared to have been booby trapped which caused the pit to flood and the presumed treasure unreachable.
In 1849 a drilling company drilled to 98 feet discovering a gold chain adding to the mystery of a great treasure. Many believe the treasure is from Spanish pirates and others believe that the island could contain King Solomon’s temple artifacts such as the Ark of the Covenant. After 221 years since the young teenager dug the mysterious hole on Oak Island many people have dedicated their lives re-searching and searching for this mysterious treasure. Although it is a mystery and no one really knows for sure what treasure lies beneath the surface, one thing is certain, they all believe that a great treasure awaits to be discovered.
The Oak Island story has long intrigued me. As I think about what could possibly be found I am often drawn to the scripture in the Bible that talks about the “unsearchable riches” in Ephesians chapter 3:8-9.
"Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ."
In Christ has been hidden unsearchable riches. These riches are waiting to be found by men and woman who are willing to dig for them. Many times we fail to dig in our Bible because we think it’s too hard to understand. Just remember like all great treasure hunters, we must become students of the treasure maps given to us. Often times treasure maps are difficult to read at first, but if you keep study-ing the clues everything you need to discover the treasure is on the map. In this case the Bible is our treasure map and the “unsearchable riches” are waiting to be discovered.
DIG
Diligently – “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those 11:6)who diligently seek Him.” (Hebrews 11:6)
Invest - "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.” (Matthew 13:44)
Give – “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and run-ning over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” and it shall be given unto you.” (Luke 6:38)
Just like the mysterious treasures that awaits to be found on Oak Island, another treasure is at our very finger tips and is also awaiting to be discovered by each and every one willing to dig. If you’re not willing to dig then the treasure that awaits you will never be found.
War with the Word by Lisa Jenkins-Moore
There are times in life when we feel
surrounded. Perhaps the cares of this
life have choked our desires for inti-
macy with Christ; tragedy has struck
one too many times; our health or the
health of those around us continues
to suffer; or prayers remain unan-
swered. Everyone struggles—even
the phrase has become a cliché’ “the
struggle is real.”
Nevertheless, God is MORE real,
and His Word is a weapon waiting to
be wielded. I was reminded recently
to “wage war with the Word.” Too
often we are led by our souls instead
of our spirits. The soul consists of
the mind, will, and emotions. Any-
time we base our decisions on what
we think, what we want, or what we
feel, we are choosing our path based
on soulish desires. Rather than look
inward, we must look outward (in
His Word) and upward (to our God),
directing our lives accordingly. By
making outward and upward a habit,
we are training our souls to follow
our spirits.
The Bible tells us to “walk in the
spirit and not fulfill the lust of the
flesh” (Galatians 5:16). Our flesh has
many desires, and the only way we
will overcome them is by feeding
our spirit continually. How do we
make our spirit grow? First and fore-
most, we eat God’s Word. His Word
is life—relevant for every situation
we are facing. His Word is inex-
haustible, infallible, unchangeable,
and applicable to every issue in our
lives and in the world. The Bible re-
minds us in 2 Timothy 3:16-17:
All Scripture is God-breathed [given by
divine inspiration] and is profitable for
instruction, for conviction [of sin], for
correction [of error and restoration to
obedience], for training in righteousness
[learning to live in conformity to God’s
will, both publicly and privately—
behaving honorably with personal integ-
rity and moral courage]; so that the man
of God may be complete and proficient,
outfitted and thoroughly equipped for
every good work.
Every answer for every problem is
found in God alone. When you begin
to meditate on His Word daily (recite
it, sing it, turn it over-and-over in
your mind until it becomes a living
part of you), you will be amazed by
the changes you see within, AND the
changes that occur without! Below
are a few of my favorite verses.
Ephesians 6:10-13
Acts 3:19-21
Philippians 4:4-7
May they encourage you to continue
the good fight of faith!
Where is Your Faith? Wandra Johnson
There are times when we encounter great difficulties that we question whether God will do certain things in our lives. Things go from bad to worse; time is passing by, so we think about other possible solutions we will make just in case things don’t pan out. We begin gathering our emotions, reaching out to others to ensure we are well-prepared for an undesired outcome. However, when the Lord looks at this, it might be viewed that we are demonstrat-ing a lack of faith. God’s word encourages us to walk by faith despite the hard times we face; regardless of what the situation dictates. You may be walking through a difficult time right now; and you’re mak-ing preparations for things not to work out. Why not wait on the Lord, and ex-pect God to perform a miracle just for you? He has not forgotten you; He still has time to move.
Hebrews: 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Hear what the Lord says:
Wait on Me. Have faith in Me, and know
that I am faithful. It’s never too late for
Me to do the impossible in your life. Why
would you pray, and then expect things
not to work out? Why didn’t you pray
and believe in Me for a miracle? I thought
needing a miracle was why you prayed in
My name.
I am your provider, and I am well able to
take care of you. There will be times
when I allow you to experience difficul-
ty. However, do not be dismayed when
this happens; for I already have a plan in
place to deliver you. Trust in Me. I want
you to experience My faithfulness person-
ally. I want you to experience My mighty
hand of deliverance in your life so that
you will bear witness to others that I am
faithful.
Wait on Me; believe in Me, I will do
things in such an amazing way that it will
bring glory to My name, and have you
singing praise forever. Where is your
faith? Repent and put your faith in Him
once again.

From the Inside
We want to give a shout out to
the Mountain View Unit in
Gatesville, TX. We were blessed
to hear from one of our readers,
Angie Vasquez. Angie, we are
praying for you and believing
God to strengthen and encour-
age you . Just remember God
makes a way when we don’t
think there is a way. Hold fast to
the promises of God and see his
mighty hand work on your be-
half. I want to encourage you
and all of our readers to read
Isaiah 43 and just allow God to
speak to you and strengthen
you.

WHERE IS GOD? By Rev.R.Peek
We are constantly being bombarded
with the question, “WHERE IS
GOD?” This is due to the increase of
public violence! With just Sunday the
17th, the most recent act has occurred.
The measure of this violence has
reached the extreme point of the me-
dia- our reporting news casts are us-
ing the titles as AMBUSH and AS-
SASSINATIONS to describe the inci-
dents! This wave of violence is flow-
ing across America. We wrote this
poem:
WITH BULLETS FLYING: CHIL-
DREN CRYING: PEOPLE DYING:
BOMBS BOOMING:
WHERE IS GOD? WHAT IS HE
DOING?
“There shall not any man be able to
stand before thee all the days of thy
life: as I was with Moses, so I will be
with thee: I will not fail thee, nor for-
sake thee.” Joshua 1:5 Brothers and
sisters and unbelievers, this is one of
God’s most valuable promise to us!
He will NEVER forsake us! We are
asked if this is so, why are all the vio-
lent acts in the world happening? It
doesn’t matter if we are in prison, in a
nursing home, at work or eating at a
neighborhood restaurant. WHY?
WHY? WHY? Mmmmmmmm.
Good question.
“I call heaven and earth to record this
day against you, that I have set before
you life and death, blessing and curs-
ing: therefore choose life, that both
thou and thy seed may live: Deuter-
onomy 30:19 WHAT? CHOOSE?
Brothers and Sisters; God is giving us
a C H O I C E? Yes, God has given
mankind F R E E D O M- O F- C H
O I C E from the very beginning,
henceforth the bite of the forbidden
fruit by Adam and Eve. THE AN-
SWER to the question of “WHY are
these acts happening?” is because--
Somebody chose to pick up a shank,
or a gun, instead of picking up the
Bible! Stop just one moment, look at
your bible. Within that book of God’s
Word lives all the answers to life. Got
a problem? Is that shank or gun really
the solution to the problem? Or are
they just keys to unlock the door to
more problems? Those of us who
grew up in the hood, it’s just a way of
life. But God gives us the choice to
start over. No matter what you have
gone or going through Jesus carried
the Cross on His shoulders so that we
all can start over!
“The thief cometh not, but to steal,
and to kill, and to destroy: I am come
that they might have life, and that
might have it more abundantly.” John
10:10 Here is the source of the vio-
lent activities across America and the
world. The thief, the Devil himself
roams rapidly in these last days of the
last days. Of course his henchmen
Hate, chaos, greed, covetousness
along with the rest of his evil spirits
are hard at work too! Mankind’s free-
dom of choice enters in to “play” here
if we dare use that word for such a
serious situation. Those who choose
to follow the thief, will steal, will kill,
and will destroy such as he. Hence-
forth picking up that shank, gun, or
some form of weapon, they steal oth-
ers joy, they kill others loved ones,
and they destroy others world! Thus
bringing curses upon their life and
possibly curses on their generation(s)
to follow! We who choose to follow
God, have life and have life in an
abundant measure. Of course there is
crazy, chaotic, raging storms causing
moments of regret, hardship, and dis-
appointment. But when we Let Go of
our brokenness and Give it to God,
we are put back together in His way
making us MORE valuable! Let Him
rain His blessings upon us and our
generations to follow. See we serve
an AWESOME God.
We choose to open the flood gates of
heaven!
You’ve Been Carrying Her for Five Miles
Pastor Glynn Davis
Years ago I came across this true story
that spoke volumes to me and caused
me to look inside; to see what I may
be still carrying that I should have left
behind.
Five monks had taken the vow of si-
lence and the vow to never touch a
woman. One day as they prepared to
cross a river, a woman was trying to
get across and was about to be swept
away. One of the monks reached out
and caught the woman by the arm and
pulled her to safety.
The monks then crossed the river and
went on in silence. After they had
gone about 5 miles, the other four
monks looked at the one who had
touched the woman. “I can’t believe
you broke your vow and touched that
woman.” The monk answered, “I left
her on the other side of the river,
you’ve been carrying her for the past 5
miles.”
It would be amazing it we could actu-
ally see all that we are carrying; in our
hearts and our minds. What if God
had a way to x-ray the un-forgiveness,
condemnation, fear, pain, and loneli-
ness in our lives. If we were to step on
heaven’s scales, we might be shocked
at how much we really weigh. Not to
mention un-repented sins.
That is why the Bible tells us many
times to forgive, to cast our care upon
Christ, to lay aside the weights and sin
that so easily besets us or weighs us
down.
The good news is God does have an
amazing way of allowing us to look in
to the mirror of His Word; and see
ourselves. He then offers grace, mer-
cy, peace, love and forgiveness to all
who ask and are willing to truly cast
our care on Jesus!
Does God Love Me?
What does the Bible Say?
Does God know me?
“Before I (God) formed you in the womb I knew you,” (Jeremiah 1:5a)
Does God love me?
“For God so loved the world (YOU) that he gave his one and only Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
“But God demonstrates his own love for US in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
Am I a sinner?
“Therefore, by the offense of one (Adam) judgment came upon all man to condemnation…For as by one man’s disobe-dience (Adam) many were made sinners.” (Romans 5:17, 18)
“For ALL HAVE SINNED and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)
“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.” (1 John 1:8-10)
Is there a penalty for sin?
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23)
How can I get to heaven?
“Jesus said, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)
How can I accept Jesus as my Savior and escape his Judgment?
“Here I (Jesus) am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into him.” (Revelation 3:20a)
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord (Jesus) shall be saved.” (Acts 2:21)
“If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9 & 10)
Prayer of Salvation
Father God, have mercy on me, a sinner. I believe in you and I believe your word is not only true, but life giving. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and he died on the cross so that I may receive forgiveness of my sins. I know without you in my heart I cannot enter into your kingdom and will be eternally separated from you because of my sin. I recognize that no matter how good I am I cannot be good enough to earn my way to heaven. I understand the only way is through Christ Jesus who laid down his life for me on the cross. I know it is only because of what Jesus did for me that I can be forgiven of my sins.
I know in my heart Lord that you died on the cross to pay the price for every sin I ever committed. I believe you not only rose from the dead after 3 days, but that you rose victorious over death so that I can have eternal life and have life here on earth more abundantly according to your word (bible). Lord Jesus, please forgive me, for every sin I have ever committed. Jesus come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior today.
Jesus, I dedicate my whole life to you from this moment on; I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Congratulations if you made the decision to give your life to Christ!
In order to grow in your relationship with Christ you need to:
1. Pray - Prayer is how we communicate with God
2. Read the Bible - God speaks to us through his word
3. Attend Church - Being connected to a church helps us grow in our faith when we worship God with other believers.

Falta la marca por Scott Taylor
Pronto después de la preparatoria, mi
entusiasmo creció para una carrera en el
campo aeronáutico, donde fui a trabajar para
una empresa que fabrica piezas para aviones
militares y comerciales. Mi entrenamiento
dirigido a la certificación en cableado de
aeronaves sistemas eléctricos. Aunque mi
formación y titulación no se usó en ese
campo, siguen siendo mi fascinación por los
aviones. A menudo encuentro mirando
hacia el cielo cuando ver o escuchar un
avión y saber hacia dónde se dirige y es a la
derecha en. Cueste lo que cueste, si el
destino del avión es a cubierta de la nieve
picos de las montañas rocosas o la
esmeralda de color aguas del Caribe, una
cosa es cierta; el piloto sigue una simple
regla: regla de 1 en 60. La regla de 1 en 60
es un término de navegación del avión que
cada piloto sabe. La regla indica
simplemente que durante el vuelo, para cada
grado 1 que la aeronave está fuera de curso,
si el error se hace en un lapso de 60 millas,
el piloto perderá su zona del aterrizaje por 1
milla. Por ejemplo, si un piloto volando
desde Los Ángeles a Nueva York hace 1-
grado de error en su partida, él perderá su
zona del aterrizaje por 40,83 millas. Este
error tendría el plano falta el aeropuerto
todos junto y dirigirse hacia fuera al mar,
que ni siquiera viendo las luces de la pista,
por no hablar del aeropuerto. Esta regla
también se usa para asegurar que el piloto
golpea su marca en la pista de aterrizaje
cada vez. Tienen a la tierra con tanta
precisión y poner el plano exactamente en el
centro de la pista de aterrizaje cada vez. No
puede ser demasiado a la derecha y no muy
lejos a la izquierda. Tienen a la tierra
exactamente donde necesita o de lo
contrario podría resultar en un accidente.
Hace varios años mi esposa y yo tomamos
unas vacaciones a la isla de St. Thomas. St.
Thomas es una isla en el mar Caribe y uno
de nuestros lugares favoritos que nunca
hemos visitado. Sin embargo, el aterrizaje se
puede un poco de una gran experiencia.
Cuando se aproximan a la isla a la tierra,
eres incapaz de ver el aterrizaje desde las
ventanas del pasajero. Parece como si vas a
la tierra en el agua hasta que escuche los
neumáticos screeching en la pista por
debajo. Aterrizar en esta isla y falta la marca
en esta pista de aterrizaje serían
catastróficas. Falta la marca nunca es algo
que quiera oír cuando usted está volando o
en la vida en general. A menudo pienso en
esto las decisiones día a día que hago. Me
pregunto si mis decisiones y opciones, que
va a tener resultados catastróficos o si puedo
quedar en curso y de la tierra directamente
en el centro de la pista de aterrizaje. Falta la
marca no sólo afectará a te pero aquellos
que ponen su confianza en ti así. Usar la
palabra de Dios como mi regla 1 en 60 para
navegar mi vida. La palabra me lleva en la
dirección correcta y si me baje el curso me
ayuda a conseguir detrás en la dirección
correcta. Cuando estés listo a la tierra, no es
el tiempo que desea encontrar a has perdido
tu marca. Depende de nosotros como
individuos a permanecer en curso y a la
derecha en todo el tiempo. Falta la marca no
es una opción!
Ganar la batalla en nuestra mente
Por Scott Taylor
Sun Tzu fue un general chino militar,
estratega, filósofo y autor del libro el arte de
la guerra. Su trabajo ha sido reverenciado
por todos los tipos de personas que van de
los lectores comunes a los líderes
mundiales. Una de sus frases más notables
son, «cada batalla se ganará o perderá antes
de que se luchó». Lo mismo puede decirse
de nuestros pensamientos. Cada batalla que
tiene lugar dentro de nosotros mismos en
primer lugar se libra
en el campo de batalla de nuestra mente.
Cada gran batalla como WWI WWII fue
simulado y estudiado por generales militares
muchos antes de que cualquier máquina
militar fue enviado. Antes de que una guerra
comience todos los grandes estrategas
militares diseñar estrategias desde una
posición de cierta victoria en lugar de
derrota. Las batallas que luchamos en
nuestra mente con ganado o perdidas en los
primeros segundos basados en las
decisiones que tomemos. La palabra de
Dios nos dice en 2 Corintios 10:5 que
debemos llevar todo pensamiento cautivo,
pero en la mayoría de los casos es nuestro
pensamiento que nos llevan en cautiverio.
Demasiado a menudo nos rendimos nuestra
posición de victoria porque somos víctimas
de nuestros pensamientos y dudas.
Recuerde, tenemos la intención desde una
posición de victoria porque Romanos 8:37
dice, en todas estas cosas somos más que
vencedores por medio de aquel que nos
amó. Podemos superar cada decisión difícil
que afrontamos por tomar tiempo para orar
y se niegan a permitir cualquier
pensamiento negativo que dictan nuestras
acciones.
El precio del pecado ("El precio del pecado," 2015)
Un día, un águila poderoso se sentó en su
perca alta en una montaña. Era época de
invierno. Él miró hacia abajo sobre el río
que corría por el valle abajo, sus ojos
penetrantes vieron el cadáver de un ciervo
que evidentemente se había ahogado aguas
arriba. Deslizándose desde su posición, él
lentamente en un círculo y se desvió hacia
abajo, hacia abajo, hasta que aterrizó en el
ciervo muerto y comenzó a comer. De
repente, el sonido del agua caer le recordaba
a una cascada, situada aguas abajo. El águila
pensado, "tengo un montón de tiempo;
Comer y comer hasta justo antes de este
ciervo se precipita por el borde. A
continuación, levante mis poderosas alas y
volar hacia la cima de la montaña." La
cascada tiene más y más, y finalmente el
águila extendió sus grandes alas para sí
mismo para levantar el cadáver. Para su
sorpresa y consternación, sus garras habían
congelado sólidos a los ciervos, y como él
fue cayendo a su muerte, pensó, "qué una
costosa comida!" Pecado viene primero a la
puerta de nuestras vidas como extraños
espera conseguir en. Una vez que los
invitamos en calidad de invitados, que
sentirse cómodos con ellos y empezar a
disfrutar de su compañía. La tragedia es que
pecado deje finalmente de ser amigos y
convertirse en amos de nuestras vidas.
Debemos aprender a odiar el pecado como
Dios lo hace.
¿Dios Me ama? ¿Qué es lo que dice la Biblia?
¿Dios me conoce?
“Antes que te formase (Dios) en el vientre te conocí,” (Jeremías 1:5)
¿Dios me ama?
“Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, (a tí) que ha dado a su Hijo unigénito, (Jesús) para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pier-da, mas tenga vida eterna”. (Juan 3:16)
“Mas Dios muestra su amor para con nosotros, en que siendo aún pecadores, Cristo murió por nosotros”. (Romanos 5:8)
¿Soy un pecador?
“Así que, como por la trasgresión de uno (Adán) vino la condenación a todos los hombres…
Porque así como por la desobediencia de un hombre (Adán) los muchos fueron constituidos pecadores”. (Romanos 5:18,19)
“Por CUANTO TODOS PECARON , y están destituidos de la gloria de Dios”. (Romanos 3:23)
“Si decimos que no tenemos pecado, nos engañamos a nosotros mismos, y la verdad no está en nosotros. Si confesamos nuestros peca-do, él es fiel y justo para perdonar nuestros pecados, y limpiarnos de toda maldad. Si decimos que no hemos pecado, le hacemos a él mentiroso y su palabra no está en nosotros”. (1 Juan 1:8-10)
¿Hay algún castigo para el pecado?
“Porque la paga del pecado es muerte, mas la dadiva de Dios es vida eterna en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro”. (Romanos 6:23)
¿Cómo puedo ir al cielo?
“Jesús le dijo: Yo soy el camino, y la verdad, y la vida; nadie viene al Padre, sino por mí”. (Juan 14:6)
¿Cómo puedo aceptar a Jesús como mi Salvador y escapar a su juicio final?
“He aquí, yo (Jesús) estoy a la puerta y llamo; si alguno oye mi voz y abre la puerta, entraré a él, y cenaré con él, y él conmigo”. (Apocalipsis 3:20)
“Y todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, (Jesús) será salvo”. (Hechos2:21)
“Que si confesares con tu boca que Jesús es el Señor, y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo”. Porque con el corazón se cree para justicia, pero con la boca se confiesa para salvación’. (Romanos 10:9 y 10)
Oración de salvación
Dios Padre, ten misericordia de mí, un pecador. Creo en tí y creo que tu palabra no solo es verdad, sino que da vida. Creo que Jesucristo es el hijo de Dios y que murió en la cruz para que yo pudiera recibir el perdón por mis pecados. Se que sin ti en mi corazón no puedo entrar en tu reino y seré separado eternamente de ti debido a mi pecado. Reconozco que no importa que tan bueno sea, nunca seré lo suficientemente bueno para ganar mi camino al cielo. Entiendo que el único camino es a través de Jesucristo quien dio su vida por mí en la cruz. Se que es solo por lo que Jesús hizo por mí que mis pecados pueden ser perdo-nados.
Señor sé en mi corazón que tu moriste en la cruz para pagar el precio por cada pecado que he cometido. Creo que tú no solo resucitaste de la muerte al tercer día, sino que te levantaste victorioso sobre la muerte para que yo pueda tener vida eterna y para que tenga vida más abundante aquí en la tierra de acuerdo a tu palabra (la Biblia.) Señor Jesús, por favor perdóname, por cada pecado que he cometido. Jesús entra en mi corazón y se mi Señor y Salvador hoy.
Jesús, desde este momento te dedico mi vida entera; oro esto en el nombre de Jesús. Amen.
¡Felicidades si usted tomó la decisión de entregarle su vida a Cristo!
A fin de crecer en su relación con Cristo usted necesita:
Orar – La oración es la manera como nos comunicamos con Dios.
Lea la Biblia – Dios nos habla a través de su palabra.
Asista a la iglesia – El estar conectado a la iglesia nos ayuda a crecer en nuestra fe cuando alabamos a Dios con otros cre-yentes.
