August 2008 - When you pray, know that God will take very seriously the words that you pronounce with your mouth. I know this by my own experience.

The month of July last year a morning I prayed to God and I said “I want to work for you, spread your message, take out of my life everything that doesn’t let me, open roads, I am willing to everything”. The month of August marked the beginning of the new scholar year and I was very glad and with many expectations of what would happen with the grade I was in charge of. I was prepared, had worked many hours so that everything would be ready and with joy I began my function. For my surprise the things did not walked as expected. Conflicts, problems, tears; followed by my resignation within only two weeks when the scholar curriculum started.

What happened? I do not understand. Why? These were the questions repeated in my mind day and night. Now I faced a new reality (momentary situation) to be in my house when my mind was prepared to another thing. In addition, I becoming physically ill; felt out of course and alone occasionally. And worst of all be judge by people that didn’t understand the process I was going through.

You may ask if I prayed. A lot, with a profound cry from the bottom of my heart. I spent months in privacy, alone with God, studying His Word looking for direction. The messages were clear. “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Cor 12:8); “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jer 29:11); “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” (Rom 8:28); “Be still, and know that I am God” (Sal 46:10). How beautiful words and instructions! To this I add the prophetic word that I received the same month of August where God said to me that my ministry would take wings.

A New Year start and I joined “Facebook” to stay in touch with my friends as many others. To share with a friend the miracle that God had done in my daughter Soleil and, at the same time, she shared with me the one that God had done with her son, is then when I decide to use “Facebook” as a resource to declare the miracles of the Lord.

Thus, for the month of February I created the group “God makes miracles and I have the evidence” (Dios Hace Milagros Y Yo Tengo La Evidencia). I shared my testimony in the page and invited my near friends. Little by little the group began to grow and God put in my heart sending reflections based on His Word to all the members. After I send one message to the members of the group, one of them commented me that it was like refreshment. Then there was when Refreshments of God started… from Monday through Friday I share with the members of the group the word that God puts in my heart.

Today there are more than 1.000 members of the group. People from PR, the US, Center and South America; Canada and Europe, How many testimonies, experiences and prayers petitions! Now God opens the doors to spread his message beyond this means to the being spread through the Magazine God Today Free Newsletter.

God listened to my prayers and took it seriously, worked in me and fulfilled His word. I surrender Him my will and He straightened my path. Have you?
