¿Qué es estar verdaderamente comprometido con Dios? ¿Cómo podemos llegar a ese nivel? Son preguntas que siempre me inquietaban y muchas veces le pedí a Dios que me ayudara a estar más comprometida con él. Cuando busqué el significado del término encontré que es una obligación contraída o una palabra dada. Al leer esto entendí que el mantener un compromiso dependía de mí, también entendí que para llegar a un compromiso auténtico tenía que pasar por un proceso. Ciertamente iba a comenzar con una decisión pero debía mantenerla con mis acciones.

1 pedro 2:6-7

Por lo cual también contiene la Escritura: He aquí, pongo en Sion la principal piedra del ángulo, escogida, preciosa; Y el que creyere en Él, no será avergonzado.  
Para vosotros, pues, los que creéis, Él es PRECIOSO...

salmo 34:1

Bendeciré a Jehová en todo tiempo; Su alabanza estará de continuo en mi boca.

the dignity of man

By Joe Gibbs 

Do you ever go through seasons when you just don't feel like your life counts for very much? Everything seems about as pointless as a first-quarter NBA score in November. People treat you with less interest than a flight attendant's lecture on oxygen masks and exit doors.

But what's easy to forget at times like these is that your value is not something other people can assign to you. They don't get to grade this. You have been given great worth by your Creator. Your significance is inborn.

juan 3:16

Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que ha dado a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna.

When Your Heart Needs a Father

by Max Lucado

"Our Father who is in heaven …” With these words Jesus escorts us into the Great House of God. Shall we follow him? There is so much to see. Every room reveals his heart, every stop will soothe your soul. And no room is as essential as this one we enter first. Walk behind him as he leads us into God’s living room.

Sit in the chair that was made for you and warm your hands by the fire which never fades. Take time to look at the framed photos and find yours. Be sure to pick up the scrapbook and find the story of your life. But please, before any of that, stand at the mantle and study the painting which hangs above it.

Your Father treasures the portrait. He has hung it where all can see.

Stand before it a thousand times and each gaze is as fresh as the first. Let a million look at the canvas and each one will see himself. And each will be right.

Captured in the portrait is a tender scene of a father and a son. Behind them is a great house on a hill. Beneath their feet is a narrow path. Down from the house the father has run. Up the trail the son has trudged. The two have met, here, at the gate.
