Un nuevo comienzo

 Esta semana tenia un montón de cosas sobre las que quería escribir. Escribir por ejemplo sobre el poder de los pequeños gestos, que nos contó Luisma, que hablo de montones de cosas muy interesantes, y como debemos ser como los Anawin, los pobres de Dios, derramando nuestro perfume y aportando luz donde no la hay, y sin esperar nada a cambio, porque solo conseguiríamos desesperarnos. Esta es una lucha lenta, de décadas o incluso siglos, y aunque el resultado final es claro, y solo hay que ver lo que hemos avanzado, debemos ser como los Anawin, haciéndolo todo y esperando poco.  También quería escribir sobre el miedo. No temais, decía Jesus, y la carta de San Juan es muy reveladora sobre el tema. El miedo es quizás el mayor enemigo del amor, el miedo a lo desconocido, el miedo al diferente, el miedo a lo nuevo, el miedo a la diversidad. El amor no entiende de miedos, pero yo como persona LGTB si que se muy bien lo que es vivir con miedo, tener miedo de ser quien soy, de que me ...

Looking for the future

 Today I started this blog and copied/moved all the relevant posts from the old blog/thread. And now is also time to think what would be of this blog in the future.  To tell the truth I dont expect a lot of traffic on it, so I think it mostly would be a repository of my thoughts so after some time (lets say one or two years, for example) there will be a significant amount of posts which could serve as a initial reading of the bible from a lgbt viewpoint. And who knows? Maybe in that time somebody will be guided for the spirit to find this blog and those resources can help them/him/her.  My current goal is to comment every week with the text of Bible corresponding to that week. I think is a modest goal what would encourage me to read, to think and to write, so it can only be a good thing, and over the time it could provide some interesting resources for other lgbt christian persons. And even if there are little traffic in this blog, we should never forget Mathew 18:20 ...

Peace

Peace. Peace be with all of you. I know it sounds weird, but when I was permanently prohibited to post again in bgg I felt peace. Other times when I was being moderated I felt disturbed or uneasy but this time I just felt in peace. At first I was even a bit surprised to my reaction, but at the next day on the Sunday mass I understood the reason of my inner peace. The lecture was John 20:19-31, and on it Jesus repeat it up to on 3 different times: Peace be with you. So same like the disciples on those tought times when they were hiding because the world have been turn upside down, Jesus came and give them peace, He also give peace to me. And I would like to share that gift with all of you, so I sincerely wish peace be with all of you, because a heart in peace is the first step to happiness. But even when I am at peace, I still feel I could have done better. I shouldnt have commented  on that silly thread about spirit island, and I could still be posting and preaching the word of God...

We are legion (Mark 5:1-20)

And the last post* of that old bgg thread.  *It is the current last post at the time of writing this entry, but of course the thread is still live (although I cant post anything there) so I bet it wouldnt be the last post eternally   This monday I had a virtual meeting with James Alison   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Alison in that meeting he talked us about Marcos 5:1-20. Quote: 5:1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him from out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 who had his dwelling among the tombs. And no man could bind him, no, not even with chains, 4 because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him and the fetters broken in pieces; neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones. 6 But ...

About Mathew 25:14-30

Another interesting post from the old bgg thread which I would like to share here: About Mathew 14-30 is a very important parable for me. I was teached that parabole when I was just a child and somehow it stuck to me. At that time I was a brilliant child (I was a geek, as most of you here, lots of 10 on the exams and the like) and I suppose it was telling me to use my talents, my bran/intelligence to bring happines to the world, so I decided to made myself a scientist. I did that (By the way Im doctor in Molecular biology, which helped me a lot to understand me and why I was the way I am) but ultimately I changed my career to high school math teacher in order to have more time to dedicate to my family/kids. But Im disgressing a bit here, sorry. The important part was that at some point in my life I was looking for a change in my life. I feel I was finally ready to go out of the closet, but I needed to know what God expected of me, as for me the spiritual side is a very important part ...

The rainbow is God´s sign

Below it is copied the first entry of this blog, that started as a blog in bgg, then was transformed in a thread there ( https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2634352/rainbow-gods-sign/page/1 ), and now is a proper blog again in blogger. Quite a journey for a blog which is only 11 days old! Today I tried to start a blog called "The rainbow is God´s sign" but it was quickly removed by moderation who suggested it was posted here. I would much prefer to have a blog in order to keep all my post together and to have some kind of moderation on them, and I will probably get a blog in some place. I would appreciate any suggestion. ButI also feel quite appropiate that my blog had to die in order to resurrect as this thread and as the future blog in other site TBD yet And now to the first (and last) post of my first blog here: Today is Holy Sunday, the best day of the year from a christian point of view, because is the day that Christ resurrect and show us that indeed He can defeat dead, so...
