The Lord is near the brokenhearted; he saves those crushed in spirit.

Psalm 34:18

I thank you, heavenly Father for tenderly watching over each human being; I praise you for your compassion and sure help to those who are in distress, those who are in desperate situations and inconsolable. When there is no hope you lift them up and you save them.  Help us to trust you in whatever situation we find ourselves in, because you are faithful and only you have the answer. In Jesus name, Amen. ©Rhodi Alers de López 2023

Escondida entre los diversos colores están las promesas divinas. Ésta es una idea que disfruté mucho trabajar hasta que descifré el mejor método para crearlo. Es parte del proyecto del Diario de Cartas. Para hacer este proyecto, necesitarás:

• Tapetes de papel (utilicé tapetes de 6″)
• Papel añejado o papel de color sólido, contrastante
• retazos de papel
• Promesas impresas en vellum, en papel de oficina, etc.
• Pegamento
• tijeras
• Opcional: Tinta (distress ink)
• mariposas, pegantinas, etc

Para empezar:

• Reúne tus materiales.
• Pega un tapete al papel teñido o de color contrastante.
• Recorta cuidadosamente la forma.
• Pega la promesa en el centro.
• Pega los diversos retazos de papel (coordinando los colores).
• Añade tu mariposa, pegantina o detalle especial.

Para crear el sobre te dejo el enlace del video tutorial. Espero disfrutes tanto como yo creando algo bonito y diferente donde escribir o para usarlo como tarjeta de felicitación, etc.

Are not two sparrows sold for a coin? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. Buet even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than may sparrows”

Matthew 10:29-31

Dear Heavenly Father, what a blessing to learn of your constant care for even the tiny birds! What a blessing it is that you reveal to us that you have your care upon each of us and our families, even our hairs are numbered! What a detailed and tender care! My soul rejoices, I have nothing to fear. You are in control because you value me and each human being much more than many birds! I praise your name and give you thanks. In Jesus name I pray, Amen! ©Rhodi Alers de López

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Luke 11:13, KJV

Dear heavenly Father, I am so thankful that you are a loving father that gives only beneficial gifts to your children. Forgive us our lack of interest on your best gift of all. Grant me, oh Lord, a spirit of grace and a spirit of prayer. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and make me a useful instrument that you can use, so that I can share your love and the message of salvation to those around me, for the glory and honor of your name. In Jesus name I pray, Amen. ©Rhodi Alers de López, 2022

Thank you for we can live safely and have confidence in your promises. Help us not to dismay while waiting in your promises. We thank you for your individual and personal care for us. We will soon see your answer, for because of your grace, we never wait in vain. We ask that your will be done in every area of our lives and in everything that affects us.

The Lord bless you and keep you;  the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you;  the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace- Numbers 6:24-26, ESV.

My prayer: Oh, how I long, dear heavenly Father, for your blessing and protection this day! How I long for your face to shine upon me, to shine upon everyone in my circle of influence, and to shine upon all those in sorrow in this time of great need! As leaders and people in authority grow further away from your commandments and your will, I realize we need your grace now more than ever! Shine on us, that we might see our desperate need of you! Oh, Father, where would I be without your kindness and your mercy? There is no other who can bless without your blessing! Where would we go without your blessing and your peace? Oh, Father, only in your will we find true peace! In the name of Jesus I humbly pray, Amen. ©Rhodi Alers de López, 2022

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give  it to you. John 15:16

My prayer

Thank you, dear heavenly Father, for loving me so, that you chose me, unworthy as I am. Today, I praise you for such a privilege. I am humbled and thank you, Lord, for having a specific purpose for me: Help me to bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit, and that my fruit will last, so that my prayers get answered, because of Jesus, and for the glory of your name. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Dear Lord,

Even when sickness,

silences my voice,

you distinctively hear

the cries of my heart.

And in such audible silence

you show your mighty power

giving me your blessing

hour by passing hour. ©Rhodi Alers de López 2012

Thank you, dear heavenly Father, for listening so closely to our hearts even in those difficult moments when we cannot express them out loud. We praise you for your love, your tender care, and your willingness to work in our need. Help us be more like you. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Dear heavenly Father, In this time where true love is so scarce, I thank you for your everlasting love. I appreciate your unfailing love for me, unworthy as I am.
