In the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power.
–2 Timothy 3:1-5 (ESV)–
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
–Psalm 139:23-24 (KJV)–
By grace are ye saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
not of works, lest any man should boast.
–Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV)–

Móntate
Móntate pa’ que veas como es
Móntate
Móntate pa’ que veas como es
Planificando tanto el evento
Que no hay momento ese es mi argumento
Todo te suena muy bien, en teoría big deal
Deja la filosofía
Te pregunto yo que es lo que estas esperando
Si es la oportunidad que tu has estado sonando
Pues abre los ojos y móntate ya
Que el tren se te va y no va a parar
Más, písalo…
Písalo, más
Más, písalo…
Písalo, más
Si mucho se planea no hay espontaneidad
Y entonces la clave; te puede quedar agua
Si mucho se planea no hay espontaneidad
Y entonces la clave; te puede quedar agua
Sube al tren para el ride de tu vida
Vamos a cien y es callejón sin salida
Trata de disfrutar el momento
Lo que viene después es solo un cuento

Get on
Get on so you can see what it’s like
Get on
Get on so you can see what it’s like
Planning the event so much
That there’s no time
That’s my argument
It all sounds great to you
In theory it’s a big deal
Leave the philosophy
I ask you, What are you waiting for?
If it’s the opportunity you’ve been dreaming of
Well, open your eyes
And get on now!
The train is leaving you
And it’s not gonna to stop
Step on it more
Step on it more
Step on it more
Step on it more
If you plan too much
There’s no spontaneity
And the thing is
You may be left with nothing
Get on the train
For the ride of your life
We’re going at a hundred miles per hour
And it’s a dead end
Try to enjoy the moment
‘Cause what comes next is just a “fairy tale”
–Puya, “Montate”–
A Theology of Suffering, Part 2: Waiting On the Lord
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee:
because he trusteth in thee.
–Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)–
He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might he increaseth strength…
they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles.
–Isaiah 40:29, 31 (KJV)–

A growing sickness in the heart
Defective, lack of control
The cure is somewhere in the silence
But I’m crushed by the noise inside
Don’t lock the door on me
You’d kill me, face down, dead
Another part of me falls for you
Another day in the dark
No, no
Stranded in the night
Stranded in the cold
Don’t lock the door on me
You’d kill me, face down, dead
Another part of you gone to waste
Please hear me out
You kill me, face down, dead
Another day in the dark
Leave the moment alone
–Gojira, “Stranded”–

Lessons About Being Spirit-Led from Paul’s Life
10 After we had been there a number of days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. 11 Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, tied his own hands and feet with it and said, “The Holy Spirit says, ‘In this way the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and will hand him over to the Gentiles.’” 12 When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem. 13 Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.” 14 When he would not be dissuaded, we gave up and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”
–Acts 21:10-14 (NIV)–
