Who taught them?

What to you notice on this picture?


There is a little bird.

Few days ago, I was waiting for an insurance agency to be open, while I waited I observed a little bird who was getting little branches... pieces of grass one, two times, and more...


He was getting construction materials for his beloved... while she was working on the engineering's of the future nest for a new bird family. Many trips looking for a nice branch... a long one, or may be a not so long one...


She inspected scrupulously every piece he brought to the construction zone, and if the new material was not exactly what she needed for the project, she dropped out from the nest the unappropriated part.

Then he continued flying in and out many times...

My question is: Who taught the birds to be faithful, constant, to do amazing things like to fly thousands of miles and fly back to the same place... to be able to build a nest... to do what they have to do without questions about... Is this what I have to do? Why other birds are flying while I'm getting branches for a nest... or many others questions... they just do what they have to do... only a great architect of the universe was able to think even on the smallest details on this creation where we live... Thanks God!

Truth or dare?

One of the things that is surprising to me today, is the low value that many people assign to their own promises. Teenagers don't believe their parents, because they never fulfill their promises; Couples say "I'll stand by you forever" and few months later they walk on the opposite direction; politicians make promises to earn votes, and once the election is done, they forgot about it. I remember one of the first things I learned from my grandmother it was the value of my word. "A gentleman always fulfill his promises, a man with no word has no honor" and I learned to live by that principle. Few weeks ago, I was having a discussion with one of the leaders on the youth ministry at Flamingo Road Church about some technical difficulties we were experiencing during the broadcasting of our Student Service online, and I challenged him to fix the failures, so if he would complete the task with no errors, I will do my hair like him... (He had a Mohawk haircut with ...

World War II and my Dad... a little bit of history Part II

Antonio started a great military career, and he was from the first generation of Pilots who had a formal training with the Mexican Army and US Air Force. He graduated with honors and his generation was called “Los Penicilinos” (The penicillin’s). He was ranked on the 5th place from the Air Force School from 5,000 students. By that time, World War II was on its apogee and German submarines launched an attack against Mexican oil tankers that were providing fuel and materials to the Allies. These attacks eventually caused the Mexican government to declare war on Germany; Mexico was involved on the war and was part of the Alliance, so they needed to send forces to join the battle front. Antonio was promoted to Captain and because of his high qualifications he was part of the leading team of the “The Aztec Eagles” the squad that is historically recognized as the "201". He was trained at Majors Field in Greenville, Texas on November, 1944. Here, he and other pilots received advanc...
