\u201c(\u2026) Jesus said to him, \u201cIf you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.\u201d (Mark 9: 23) <\/p>\n
There once was a time where a man went to Jesus and asked Him if He could do anything to help him, and if He could, and he asked Him to do so. And the answer Jesus replies gives much food for thought: <\/p>\n
\u201cIf you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Everything is everything! There is no impossible problem; there doesn\u2019t exist limitations, or excuses, not even human nature can restrain it\u2026ANYTHING is possible\u2026 but with one condition: \u201cIF you can believe\u201d. And that is exactly the point where many youths lose a marvelous opportunity to live a life that is unlimited and complete, without boundaries. <\/p>\n
What does it mean \u201cto believe\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n According to the dictionary of the English language, to believe means: TO ACCEPT OR REGARD SOMETHING AS TRUE What is the difference?<\/strong><\/p>\n When I began to give my all to God, I began to see how different I was from a woman of God. I wanted, I desired and I believed that one day I would be a woman of God, but when?! That\u2019s how it works? Whenever I want? I want it now! In the beginning it wasn\u2019t easy, it was very frustrating knowing that I was fighting for something more but my \u201cme\u201d was pushing me to what was wrong. I had to be RADICAL! <\/p>\n And in the moment that I wanted an answer, I couldn\u2019t delay any further. I assumed that word as true and what was impossible for me to change, happened! <\/p>\n It is difficult to explain what is faith. Faith is a revelation from God! For those who have it, EVERYTHING is possible! <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cIf you can believe, all things are possible to him who

\nI can say from personal experience that is difficult to accept, but to have something as the truth, that is a whole other story! To assume something that we don\u2019t see as concrete is a challenge!<\/p>\n
\nI liked things that came from the world, I had pleasure in things that were wrong, reading the Bible was bothersome to me, participating in the service was too much for me, I lived telling lies\u2026
\nBut even though I did all the that… deep, deep inside, I wanted to be a woman of God; I wanted to receive the Holy Spirit. But how was it possible?<\/p>\n
\nI went and asked that very same question to an assistant\u2026 and his only response:
\n\u201cWhenever you want to.\u201d
\nThese words liberated me.<\/p>\n
\nI want to be a woman of God now!
\nWhat are the attitudes of a woman of God? What are God\u2019s thoughts? What pleases God, what doesn\u2019t? I began to investigate and eliminate everything that doesn\u2019t please God and began to act accordingly.<\/p>\n
