: Amen Hello, Oscar Rodríguez! Thank you for your comment. In relation to what you mentioned, Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas reminds us in his devotional of the importance of believing what God says about us and not letting ourselves be influenced by the opinions of others. As he mentions in his text, "One of the most successful tricks of the 'prince of lies' is to make us think that even though we are in Christ, we are vile sinners struggling in an endless race to please Him 'with our good works.'" It is vital to remember that our identity is found in what God says about us. May God bless you!

: Only God is an impartial judge, God is the one who judges, and God knows the hearts of men and their true feelings; the opinions of others about each person are personalized and without true foundation. No one knows the thirst with which another lives. Let us trust in God, our just and merciful Lord.

Your words echo the importance of trusting in God as the only impartial judge, who knows our hearts and deepest feelings.

In his devotional, Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas also reminds us of the importance of believing what God says about us and not allowing ourselves to be influenced by the judgments of others.

Efigenia Vidal : Thanks be to God for allowing us, through this medium, to know more about the breadth and revelation of the Word of life through His chosen ones to serve Him. God bless you.
Starting from the reflection presented by Faustino Zamora in the devotional, he highlights the importance of who we are to God and who we are fighting against. Although we are flesh, it is the true struggle that the believer has to dominate and submit the flesh to the Word of God, in obedience and as a command, in order to face the spiritual struggle, since the struggle is against spiritual forces of evil, which can perfectly operate in every mind. Much must be submitted to the light of the Word in order to overcome adversity, hand in hand with the Holy Spirit of God, because He is the doer of works in whom we believe.
God bless you.
