Welcome - Bienvenidos

WHY ARE WE IN THIS SITUATION?

Simply because this is the result of our behavior and our way of life.

If we want different results or outcome, we must change and do things differently. Otherwise we will never be able to obtain different results if we persist doing things the same way. Remember, each one of us represents our country with our behavior and way of life. Let's start by saying that the change will get started when each of us, individually, decide to change as it is easier to change ourself before we try to change others. Let's be transparent, accountable, reliable, and shine and glow so others can notice it and willingly decide to change themselves.

As humans born with a sinful nature, we cannot do it alone as it is beyond our natural ability. Only God alone is good (Psalm 14:1) all the time. We are good only when we derive goodness from God through His Holy Spirit.

What is the meaning of goodness? It is righteousness in action, moral purity, strict ethical behavior, kindness with strength, goodness in action, live a moral life, stand for justice and for truth, confront sin and injustice.

¿PORQUE ESTAMOS EN ESTA SITUACIÓN?

Sencillamente porque la triste situación imperante es el resultando de nuestro comportamiento y nuestra forma de vida.

Si deseamos una situación o un resultado diferente, tenemos que cambiar y hacer las cosas de diferente manera. De lo contrario nunca obtendremos resultados distintos si persistimos en el mismo comportamiento.

Recuerde, con nuestro comportamiento y forma de vida, cada uno de nosotros representa e identifica a nuestro país.

Inicialmente enfaticemos que el cambio se iniciará cuando usted decida cambiar. Es mas facil cambiar uno mismo antes de intentar cambiar a otras personas. Esforzémonos porque nuestro autocambio séa tal que los personas en nuestro entorno lo puedan notar. Seamos responsables, justos y transparentes. Convirtámonos en una luz resplandeciente y brillante para que al observarlo otros quieran seguir nuestro ejemplo.

Por nuestra naturaleza pecaminosa, por si solos no podemos hacer un radical cambio permanentemente pues está fuera de nuestras habilidades. Solo Dios es perfectamente bueno todo el tiempo (Psalmo 14,1). Nosotros somos buenos solamente cuando derivamos nuestra bondad de Dios, a travez del Espíritu Santo.

¿Que significa bondad? Rectitud (virtud) en acción, pureza moral, estricta ética, buenaventuranza en acción, vivir una vida moral, proclamar justicia y verdad y enfrentar el pecado y la injusticia.
