A good advise!

I visited a friend of mine who lives on the middle of the loneliness and as part of our conversation he shared with me "I give advise to no one, because those who are wise, they don't need it and those who are dumb, are unable to follow it". After our conversation, I was thinking of what he shared with me... on the popular phrases there is wisdom, nevertheless as my friend said, "dumbs are unable to follow advise" and there is a lot of people who believe "No one get experience from others".

I believe that wisdom depends of our capability to learn from the experience of others, so the wise have been those who are able to observe the other's actions, and they are able to get conclusions from there, avoid their mistakes and are able to improve the good.

There is a proverb that says "If you don't get advise you will never be an old man..."

And there is this olive for your cocktail...

"Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed."

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 ...

My greatest blessing.

9 years ago, I was having the most difficult time in my entire life. After a complete breakdown, I was ready to take my life on my own hands and God showed me his mercy and I knew for sure there was a real God. I remember my first kind of prayer was “All right, I understood. You want me to stay… I’ll stay here, but I don’t know what to do with my life… please show me the way, because I’m lost. Show me the path you want me to follow and I’ll do it. You want me to stay on this life, please, show me the way”. That was my first prayer… and the answer came to me. Few days later, He sent me an Angel on a shape of a woman. Some one with great patience, love and understanding that took care of that task and wisely she guided me to Christ, not inviting me to church or talking to me about Jesus, or judging me for my past actions… she just accepted me like I was… and prayed for me. Instead, she showed me Jesus on her daily actions, until finally I found Christ! My life was completely changed, tra...
