This is a Happy B-Day!!!

Wow... This birthday had an incredible jump start. I got on my mail, a b-day card from Garland... the first I received on the mail on the last few years... we are so used to the electronic media that we forgot how nice is to open a regular mail envelope and get a nice wish from a nice friend... and then, after the 2:15 service, I went home to pick up my family to be all together at the 5.00 p.m. service and my beloved one was carefully prepared a surprise for me... unexpected, because my B-day is tomorrow... so she got me! Home-made-cake, candles, flowers, and birthday cards... she invited one of my best friends, Douglas and his family it's so I was really moved by the surprise. But what I can tell you is what was written on the cards... every one gave me nice and beautiful card, but also hand written very deep thoughts that reminded me how big is the God's love. I ended crying (I'm sorry, I'm emotional, so what?) of happiness and gratitude to my Lord for he gave me this great, loving and caring family and friends. I can tell you it has been the best pre-birthday I ever had.

An then we went together to the service to listen my Pastor, Troy Gramling on the launch of the new series Rationalies... almost 500 salvation's on the weekend... people who changed his destiny for an eternity... Isn't a great way to start a Birthday?

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...
