Extraordinary things the Lord is doing with us! We are the most beautiful demonstration of what the He can do. If an artist has a canvas of premier quality, first class paints, brushes of quality, it is very easy to paint a painting. Therefore, if he has bad material, but even continues to paint and the painting comes out as first class work that means that he is good himself! We are the demonstration  of the how the Lord is “Good in His work”!

With us and through us God is realizing marvelous things. He is an artist! We are a “people” that need to be corrected, transformed, a “rablle” still very vain, filled with spiritual pride, jealous, stubborn disobedient…We are unfortunately. But the Lord is “Good in His work” and does marvels in us! We are a miracle of God!

Thanks to God, He already does marvelous things in our lives! But the beauty is what He already did, He is doing and wants to do also “through” us. With us the Lord is transforming His church. There what happened in the beginning of the Church is happening now! Praised be Our Lord Jesus Christ!

God bless you!
