To The Point

Sunday Service was full of surprises for the congregation and the Advincola family, too. During the Worship Service the Lord spoke to everyone present through an upcoming preacher that has a Pastoral calling over him. ‪#‎OhYes‬, The message was deep and to the point, with a Biblical foundation you can taste miles away ... #HaLLeLuJaH‬,
 
One more thing, tonight's Preacher was Brother Josue' (our Diamond son #2). What left the congregation speechless was that Mr. Blessed (that's what we call Josue' at home) doesn't like to talk a lot; but during the Sunday Service, he allowed God to have His way ... #‪‎ThankYouJesus‬,

Mission Accomplished

Society has numerous needs and wants; but not everything can be obtained right away. We're living in the Supply and Demand Generation. For example, a baby needs: love, food and some occasional playtime too. If all of this done then your babies or kids will wake up in a better mode.
 
In other words, we're also living in the Give and Take Era too; because kids demand attention and parents supply affection. Here are a few tips for you moms and dads that want to delight in some quiet romance time. Set aside some time for the following:
  1. Play with them (the kids) till they're a bit tired or close to being knocked out.
  2. Serve them up enough food (maybe even their favorite dish) so they can go to sleep with a full tummy.
  3. Cuddle up next to them (the kids), read a bible story, pray for them and let God do the rest
By doing some or all of the above Mrs. Wife & Mr. Husband, you'll enjoy a delightful night, just like this verse describes ...
 
Proverbs 5:18-19 (NCV) - 18. Be happy with the wife you married when you were young. She gives you joy, as your fountain gives you water. 19.  She is as lovely and graceful as a deer. Let her love always make you happy;  let her love always hold you captive.

Today's Preachers, Tomorrow Leaders

Saturday Bible Study, now the Lord used an upcoming Preacher in a Spirit filled matter, to administer to the congregation. What God allowed, us to view and hear is conformation of this ...
 
Romans 12:2 (NCV) - Do not be shaped by this world; instead be changed within by a new way of thinking. Then you will be able to decide what God wants for you; you will know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect.
 
Oh yes, for God's Glory (ALWAYS) the young Preacher was our Diamond son #4 - Elias Jacob ... 
 
Care to join us in the continual praying for tomorrow's leaders, which are today's youth?

Happy Birthday Elias

On this day, 22 years ago, the Lord blessed my GEM & I with our last bundle of joy Elias Jacob. While my GEM (hubby) was repairing my laptop; because it was acting up, all that I could think about was the day when the doctor told us this ... "It's a Boy". #ThankYouJesus, Before this baby boy entered our life's, my Dominican Danish & I constantly asked the Lord what should we name him ... When we least expected God told my husband Jacob and then He (God) told me Elias, so we came to the conclusion that this future leader would be known as Elias Jacob. If you look up the name Elias, it means The Lord is my God ... #HaLLeLuJaH,

Elias's nickname at home is the Professor; because he's constantly looking for new ways to come to the aid of our family. In my heart and mind, Elias Jacob is a continual reminder of his Papi (my Love Boat). When our 4 Diamond sons return home from school (college) they all have a question to ask their father and me. What makes me laugh is that Elias first asks for his blessing (that's a Hispanic tradition) and then shares a few long and deep hugs and in between them Elias asks me how was my day ... #Awe,

A lot of people ask me, aren't you upset because you don't have at least one daughter, my reply will always be the same "my husband & I only prayed for sons and our Heavenly Father answered us. Happy Birthday Elias, your love, determination and seriousness is a God given gift; so don't change it ...

Here's A Suggestion

Let's chat, dear youth? Are you having difficulty remaining pure in spirit, heart and mind? If the answer is yes, then why don't you give some mind to this?

Psalm 119:9 (NCV) - How can a young person live a pure life? By obeying your word.

Before you take another step, we'd also like to convey this thought to you. Today's the beginning of a new day, week and month, full of activities (both pleasing and offensive to the Lord), that's why you should seriously think about the following bible verse, when you have a few minutes ...

Psalm 119:11 (NLT) -I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

Indeed, the world offers many choices based upon your age or sex but we suggest that you pray before making your next move; because what you do now, whether it's good or bad, can leave behind consequences that last a lifetime ... #GiveMind2This?

Do Your Research, First

In the event that your on the verge of publishing a book, here's a company that you should NEVER do business with  and it's called TATE PUBLISHING and ENTERPRISES, LLC, which is located at https://www.tatepublishing.com/ ... Now, the department of Consumers Affairs online has 46 grievances against TATE, based upon them not adhering to what their contracts stipulates, ignoring emails and phone calls made by their clients, being irresponsible, a constant flow of delayed shipment and preposterous excuses made by their representatives who are extremely mean. However, when it comes to TATE's representatives,  noticing that their clients are seeking outside alleviation from their scamming tactics, a rep calls the client's home in an uneducated, disrespectful and unprofessional manner. Why I'm I saying this; because it occurred to me yesterday? Apparently, it's to imitate the person who's broadcasting the fraud; because what thief wants to get caught stealing?
 
It's a disgrace how this publishing company states that it's Christian based and they operate in the totally opposite. For example, if you go to their official website https://www.tatepublishing.com/, all you see are pictures of women and men of God, who supposedly published their books there. Using the imagines of well known Ministries of the Body of Christ in order to lure upcoming authors to company is their specialty.  It seems as if the founder and employees of TATE Publishing Company overlooked this bible verse ...  
 
2 Timothy 3:13 (ESV) - While evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
 
Perhaps, your wondering why I'm sharing this with all of you. Well, here are the three reasons that are  triggering me:
  1. Our oldest son Carlos Jr. has published a book at TATE and every time he makes an order, it NEVER arrives on time or complete, the quality of the paste they use on the book is terrible, the rep. that was assigned to Carlos Jr. is named Mr. Cody Crawford and he's the most: disrespectful, barbaric and definitely lacking in the public relation department.
  2. First Amendment ~ Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
  3. Article 19 ~ Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.

Closing Argument

Before I bring this detailed post to an end, I'd like to remind you how not to be fooled by wolfs dressed in sheep's clothing. Instead, affiliate yourself with a company that says what they mean and means what they say or in other words this  ...
 
Matthew 5:37 (NLV) - Let your yes be YES. Let your no be NO. Anything more than this comes from the devil.

As a wife, mother and Pastor of the Gospel of Jesus Christ it's my duty to remind all of you this ...

1 Peter 5:8 (NLT) -  Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.
