Transcript
- 0:15Hello very good night, afternoon days, depending on how you are watching us,
- 0:20all of you are very welcome back to our Walcoln podcast. But today
- 0:26we have some fancy guests. We are now of long maintenance. We are
- 0:32remembering International Women' s Day and it is a holiday that we do not
- 0:37celebrate. But we also want to do a little bit, emphasizing God'
- 0:44s love for human beings and dignifying women a little bit, in the sense
- 0:51that God uses us, in the sense that God is also present in women
- 0:57' s lives. And today we have some guests, as I said,
- 1:03from superluxury. It is the Ministry, in the representation of the Massay Church,
- 1:07of its three headquarters, the e de tlakepaque are to four Guadalajara to
- 1:11the Ministry of Women which is called hearts in harmony. Very welcome. Thank
- 1:17you very much for accepting the invitation. Today' s topic, as I
- 1:21say to you, is not a topic of feminism and we are not going
- 1:26to talk about gender ideologies. Today we will talk about how God is able
- 1:30to dignify women and how, through history, he has dealt with women.
- 1:38This podcast is nothing more for women, but it is dedicated to them and
- 1:42dedicated to their great work which they have done throughout the history of humanity,
- 1:47which God has also created for us with a purpose in his image and likeness,
- 1:52created the human race and allowed us to be part of that special creation
- 1:57as well. And we' re going to talk about a few women.
- 2:05We are going to pass, from the Old Testament to the New Testament,
- 2:08the story of them and if you identify yourself with any of them, with
- 2:15any of their stories, because we are going to tell their stories and tell
- 2:21how God could touch their lives and how we are important to God that,
- 2:28although it is currently said that the role of women has been empowered, even
- 2:32beyond what God stipulates in his word of the role we should have in the
- 2:38part of the home rather than empowering them is how God has touched every one
- 2:46of their lives and we would like them to accompany us to the end to
- 2:51hear every one of the stories these women present in the Bible, that each
- 2:57one of them had struggles your life, gave dreams, had unfulfilled dreams and
- 3:04also made many mistakes. But above all, let it be understood from all
- 3:10that we are important to God and that you are important to God and that
- 3:15you are a woman of value to God and that, regardless of your failures,
- 3:23regardless of your achievements, there is someone behind them. And it'
- 3:28s not that I' ve been so wrong in life as not to have
- 3:30a chance. I think God tells you or carries all the scars on his
- 3:38body. Every one of the stories we' re going to present here is
- 3:46a story of tears, it' s a journey traveled, a difficult path,
- 3:52and each one is going to present the gospel of the part that touched
- 3:57him to live in his story. It is a journey or or one of
- 4:00the very few of the many women the Bible speaks of, because the Bible
- 4:04is nothing more. It' s a sexist book, as you think,
- 4:09because many say God is a sexist God. After listening to this complete podcast,
- 4:14you will realize that God is a sensitive being, who listens to women
- 4:18and listens to men and who is able to dignify the worst of the failures
- 4:23you have ever had, the worst mistake you believe, that you have made
- 4:27in which you say I no longer have a solution. I was really wrong,
- 4:33but we are going to see through the life of one of them,
- 4:38that there is no error, that God cannot forgive, there is no sin,
- 4:42that God has not considered the day he died on the Cross and I
- 4:47invite you to listen to each of the stories that will be told by each
- 4:50of our precious sisters who are here and thank you for their time, thank
- 4:56you for coming, thank you for accepting the invitation and to tell us a
- 5:00little bit of the story of each of these beautiful women they bring, who
- 5:05have shaped their lives through much suffering, many joys And if you feel identified
- 5:12with one of them, it is no coincidence. Okay, and thank you
- 5:16for listening to us. Okay, and we' re going to give our
- 5:23first place Aerica. Well, you guys already know her. Erika is going
- 5:26to tell us a little bit about why is Pugna not about why the sex
- 5:30war that even right now says hand And why the sex war? Who'
- 5:34s better than a woman or a man, and that' s all.
- 5:40Men can or women can too. Or now we' re the struggling moms
- 5:45who push the kids forward and nothing happens and society doesn' t happen to
- 5:49her and we' re warriors. Let' s hear a little bit what
- 5:55Erica brings us now, so she can tell us a little bit about the
- 5:59war of the sexes, where all this feminist situation comes from to see what
- 6:02you can tell us about the ca hello good night to all days afternoon,
- 6:08depending on the schedule you' re seeing us. It is a pleasure that
- 6:10you remain faithful to this and I remind you that all glory and all honor
- 6:14is for our God and we are here to reach those hearts that need to
- 6:19hear this. I repeat them again. I' m going to talk about
- 6:25what Mara comments about why is Satan hate women? And as we go through.
- 6:30Every one of us thinks we' re going to introduce ourselves. Not
- 6:32as long as he' s touching us in turn and I' m starting
- 6:38then why does Satan hate women? There is no Bible text in the Bible
- 6:42that specifically mentions that she hates a woman. For this reason remember that Satan
- 6:49came into this world to kill, steal and destroy, and to destroy a
- 6:56woman said to him it is a triumph, since woman is a very important
- 7:01work in the family. It' s an important point for the children,
- 7:06for the husband, for the parents. And Satan says. I' m
- 7:12gonna make you fall, I' m gonna make you fall down,'
- 7:15cause I know you' re important to your family. That is the main
- 7:18reason why satan uses or wants to destroy the woman, or wants to use
- 7:24the woman to destroy her marriage, destroy her children. And that' s
- 7:30why. And all this begins in Genesis Three. It' s true,
- 7:33Karina. That' s very nice to meet you. My name is Karina,
- 7:38representing more itlake paque, as you mention Sirikam, Genesis speaks to us
- 7:44in chapter three about from the beginning we see how the serpent, because Eve
- 7:49was deceived. True, we note how he questioned what God had said that
- 7:55they should not eat the forbidden fruit. However, there is a background far
- 8:01beyond and here we can see how there is this enmity in Genesis three hundred
- 8:07and fifteen, says I will put enmity between you and the woman and between
- 8:13your seed and hers. His seed will crush your head talking about Jesus says,
- 8:18but you will bite his heel. Here we see a direct attack by
- 8:24satan on the woman in the family, because I reach him to see this
- 8:28whole movement that you told us about empowerment, that women can alone. He
- 8:35' s telling us about a hoax. He speaks to us to induce us
- 8:39to an individuality that is not really biblical, because the word of God tells
- 8:43us that when we marry we are no longer two, he says that we
- 8:48are now one. So, all these voices, these things that are rising
- 8:54around society. What it causes is us to start listening to that voice that
- 9:01ever spoke to Eve and that tells us You can do it alone. You
- 9:03can go your husband. Your kids would be better off without him. You
- 9:07would have accomplished more without him your husband. Because he doesn' t support
- 9:11you. So, all those voices, all they want to do is this
- 9:13division and put that doubt into God' s original plan. I believe that
- 9:18the family is the sustenance of all the foundations of all of God' s
- 9:24creation. Satan' s attack is directly upon the creation he formed, which
- 9:30is the family. Then it is very important to realize that, beyond the
- 9:35arguments of movement, it is an attack on God’ s word, on
- 9:41a biblical foundation that has great weight and that we must be very punctual and
- 9:48very accurate in detecting these types of attacks. Because this father I have to
- 9:52recognize him at first, when I listened to all these movements, suddenly I
- 9:58said I can. I' m strong, I' m brave, I
- 10:01can be what I want to do. Right. How many times we hear
- 10:05that And if we are not attentive and are not in communion with the Holy
- 10:09Spirit, it is very easy to be deceived And more so, the Bible
- 10:13says that look and think to be firm, see that it does not fall.
- 10:16Then that calls us alert, because not everything that seems good or not
- 10:20all that we like to hear comes from God. Then we have to have
- 10:26that spiritual discernment to understand what God wants for our family. Amen. Thank
- 10:33you very much, dear someone that Erika wants to comment something, if God
- 10:43I believe to turn on the man and then the woman, why? The
- 10:45serpent had to deceive the woman first, why didn' t he catch the
- 10:52man and tell him to eat the forbidden fruit and you' re going to
- 10:58be like god that is, why to the woman why not the man.
- 11:07It says a biblical text that the wise woman builds her house more foolishly with
- 11:13her hands, destroys it and that is very clear to me in the aspect
- 11:18that if Eve had been wise, in fact, you know what not,
- 11:24because the lord my father said that I will not eat of that fruit,
- 11:30what would have happened. If I hadn' t eaten what you think would
- 11:35have happened. Look Erika, I think this goes beyond the characteristics and qualities
- 11:41of a woman. We women are very hearingful. We like to be spoken
- 11:46nice husbands convince us with tender loving words. And yet men are different.
- 11:54Men It' s not how we talk to them then the sensitivity of a
- 11:58woman. I think it' s coming from there, too, because he
- 12:01knew Eva' s weakness. Then he started and said the Bible. The
- 12:05Bible begins by saying that snakes were the most cunning animal of all. If
- 12:11you notice. Then he says he told Eve that God said no is true.
- 12:16So many times we ourselves allow thoughts or talks to enter that begin to
- 12:24leave us a little bit of doubt. But all arguments are thrown down by
- 12:28the word, because that is why the word mentions us. That we overthrow
- 12:31every argument that stands against the word of God, but for that we must
- 12:35have that intimate communion to understand our weakness. And often the weakness on the
- 12:41part of women comes from the ear. And well, as well as you
- 12:54eat, we' re sensitive women, but we' re also pillars and
- 13:03we know how to get what we want then I think that' s where
- 13:07the attack was. He knew that through us he could, through Eve,
- 13:11attack Adam. Then I believe that God has adopted us of many beautiful things
- 13:20and we are very intelligent. All of a sudden, we' re very
- 13:26sensitive and we let a lot of sweetening the ear, but we' re
- 13:31also very smart and we know how to get what we want then it'
- 13:33s there. I think it' s that way the attack, because we
- 13:37' re right says the Bible that the man is the head of the home,
- 13:41but we are pillars. The Bible itself says that the woman builds the
- 13:45house, so that' s where she comes from. I think that'
- 13:48s where he' s looking and he' s looking for a way to
- 13:54hit us hard. But sometimes Jesus Christ, who came to change things,
- 13:56to transform his life from women. That' s right. Thank you very
- 14:03much. Someone else I want to comment on this. Or excuse of Pastor
- 14:11General of Christian Church. And the same deception that the enemy used in the
- 14:22Garden of Eden to deceive the woman offered him independence, being just like God,
- 14:30and that same deception is what he offers us today. It is exactly
- 14:37the same thing that offers us that, as Kari said, we can do
- 14:43everything we are self- sufficient and many times and unfortunately we lend ourselves to
- 14:46that deception. No, I don' t. Thank you very much and
- 14:54well we are then starting with the introduction. Thank you for your comments and
- 14:58then we' re going to start right now, more or less. We
- 15:03understand all those who are to our new subscribers, thanks to those who are
- 15:07back there listening to us because sometimes women have been so attacked throughout the history
- 15:13of humanity through deceptions, through many inventions of satan to discredit the dignity of
- 15:20women and, as our guests rightly said, it is true not the enemy
- 15:26often attacks us, sweetens us. He knows what we like. Do you
- 15:35know at what point we feel alone? And do you know when to arrive
- 15:39and with what to arrive? To convince us, But, as our sister
- 15:45Martita and our manna Christi said, thanks to Jesus Christ who came to change
- 15:50things for all, true and let' s start then we already talked a
- 15:56little bit about Eve. Let' s talk now, let' s do
- 16:00a count for the old will of the women who were at some difficult time,
- 16:06in some situation that wasn' t very comfortable. Like me. I
- 16:08think that many of you are currently going through as you might be or as
- 16:12you have already been, and let us hope that each of these stories will
- 16:17serve you and be building for each one of them and can be identified and,
- 16:21above all, always be emphasized. We' re not alone on the
- 16:26road. We' re not walking alone. We have someone who has already
- 16:33walked and someone who is not against us, someone who also listened to us
- 16:37and who, just as he spoke to the great prophets of the Bible,
- 16:41spoke to these great women who perhaps had seen that their life had failed and
- 16:45that no one gave anything for them anymore. But there was someone who took
- 16:49them in his arms, who gave them the love that hol also tells you
- 16:52that same love, which is an incomparable love, full of grace and full
- 16:57of a new opportunity. Let' s listen now to our first woman is
- 17:08from Christi. I don' t know if you want to share with us
- 17:15what woman you brought here today to discuss her story. Hijole, I bring
- 17:18a woman we all know, is rather known as the Samaritan woman in the
- 17:26Bible Notice, that there is not her name. In fact, his name
- 17:30isn' t written, but he' s an impacting character. It'
- 17:40s in John' s Gospel, in chapter four he writes how Jesus Christ
- 17:48was on his way and makes a stop in Samaria and had something to do
- 17:56there, had something to do. There was someone there to visit and it
- 17:59was to meet this woman of the morning. He is already listening, he
- 18:03was studying and I was commenting to him a little while ago cari transforms my
- 18:12heart because I heard that the Bible relates that it was about the sixth hour
- 18:21and I was analyzing and studying and it was about twelve o’ clock in
- 18:26the day when this was happening, because it was an hour where there was
- 18:29so much heat. This woman, as the Bible relates, had passed through
- 18:33five husbands. She was going through a situation or adultery, or prostitution or
- 18:41something not very comfortable. Imagine in those times and having five husbands, imagine
- 18:48the situation in which we are emotionally abandoned, not all of it. She
- 18:52brought many empty spaces and sought to go to the water, to draw water
- 18:59from that well to one or where there were not many people and I imagine,
- 19:03by it, the same point of the people or people of what she
- 19:11was or what she had been. Then, Jesus Christ had to pass at
- 19:15that hour because he was going to meet her, he was going to make
- 19:21her the first disciple, the first woman to share and talk about Jesus Christ
- 19:26and he was studying and it was with the woman who had more time to
- 19:36talk. He dedicated himself to her, sat there and waited for her to
- 19:41arrive. He waited for her to arrive. He dedicated all the time to
- 19:45her and told her about the water. He asked her for water, he
- 19:51asked her for water. She was pulling water out of a well and telling
- 19:55her to give her water, and she was telling her how you asked me
- 19:57for water. She herself in her condition, I think she despised herself,
- 20:02felt pure, felt unworthy of a man. I think she even felt strange
- 20:07to see I guess she' s used to it when no one was there
- 20:11in that well pulling water. And I think he was surprised to see Jesus
- 20:17Christ standing there, Jesus standing there waiting for her and him to come and
- 20:22tell him to give me water. But this was just the beginning of a
- 20:27talk that was going to transform her life and is as shocking as Jesus Christ
- 20:36does not see our condition. He doesn' t see what you' re
- 20:41talking about, the nove what you did, the situations you went through,
- 20:45the situations this woman had gone through to change so many husbands from those voids
- 20:52she had, He left them aside. He had to meet her to heal
- 20:59her, give her, change her life, change her story and make her
- 21:07an example of life for each of us. How many women, sometimes in
- 21:12such conditions, feel unworthy to receive Jesus Christ? How many women today feel
- 21:19unworthy because they have been abused because they work on these prostitution issues, because
- 21:26they have changed even for the better. They' re not involved in prostitution,
- 21:30but they have two or three husbands. And we know that before society,
- 21:33because it is not well seen. And that makes you feel unworthy before
- 21:38Jesus Christ. But they do not know Jesus who is full of grace,
- 21:45a sufficient grace, a redeeming grace that transforms lives. And she is an
- 21:51example to us of how he approached, waited for me to reach this woman
- 21:57and offer her that living water grew. Yes, that living water that has
- 22:03for us that calms our thirst our headquarters in our soul of our feelings.
- 22:10We were talking at first. As women we are very emotional, we are
- 22:15very fragile, we are very earsy, we are a very special creation of
- 22:22it. He knows us perfectly and he knew what had happened and what she
- 22:26needed. And just as he knew that condition of her, he knows the
- 22:32condition of each of us. Perfectly. She knows what Sister Grey has,
- 22:37what she needs, she knows how to speak Sister Erica, she knows how
- 22:42to approach Martha each of us. But our condition goes further. It is
- 22:51not limiting to his love, our condition that aside, when we understand that
- 22:56he is full of love and grace for us, then it is so nice
- 23:04to see how this woman, he takes her out of the Bible. We
- 23:11know everything. In fact, the title of this evangelism of this chapter.
- 23:15That' s the Samaritan woman and Jesus Christ isn' t here? Jesus
- 23:18and the Samaritan woman are gone. There' s no man for her,
- 23:23yes, but she was the first woman to talk about him. How it
- 23:29dignified her truth. Sometimes we' re not able to bet on these kind
- 23:33of women. And the lord said I' m waiting for you. I
- 23:38am waiting here outside this well, because I have an appointment pending with you,
- 23:44because today I am going to give you grace, because today I am
- 23:45going to give you salvation, because you will know that love that covers a
- 23:52multitude of errors, that love that heals, that love that restores you already
- 24:00found someone else that I want you to think. Thank you, Christi.
- 24:02It is very true how God sought it. Yes, because he sought her
- 24:07that way and no one else wanted to seek her out and interfered in the
- 24:15city and he went looking for her, found her and gave her what she
- 24:19already needed, peace, a new life. He transformed his life, transformed
- 24:25his life, He thanked her that she went and told them come I just
- 24:30found the one who is the messiah told me everything he knew about me.
- 24:36That' s right, and it' s funny, not because I'
- 24:41ve seen her in her life. I can' t imagine this woman'
- 24:45s face when she spoke it, because she was surprised that this man spoke
- 24:51to her, but that this young Nazarene Carpenter told her. I know you
- 24:57' re in trouble, I know you' re not wanted and in your
- 25:03village, but if you come to me, you' re never going to
- 25:07lack anything, because everything you needed you found and cisterns broken and it also
- 25:15teaches us mara when we see this story. I mean, I didn'
- 25:21t have one, I didn' t have two, I didn' t
- 25:23have three, or life. So this means that by God' s standard
- 25:27all sins are equal. Yes, and unfortunately, as human beings, we
- 25:34often say or measure small sins, big ones, smaller than the other,
- 25:40but not by the standard of God, all sins are the same. Then
- 25:45there I was showing her that no matter what sin you have here I am
- 25:48to redeem you in the Book of America. Yeah, we were being bragged.
- 25:55Right now. This makes a comparison of the woman of the Old Testament
- 26:03with the women of today and many times we have or rather we feel with
- 26:10the ability to judge other women. I feel like the fairest and most submissive
- 26:17and humblest woman of this time. It is not compared in any way to
- 26:23the godly woman of the Old Testament. Women who loved their husbands, who
- 26:27respected them right now, calling their husband a lady, not us. This
- 26:34is not even a very distant prototype of woman from the Old Testament to the
- 26:42present day. And that now does not allow us to judge anyone like that,
- 26:49neither to point to anyone nor to say I am better than one,
- 26:55I am better than another, because in reality we are not. Not the
- 26:57love of Christ comes to transform our life in such a way that even in
- 27:03that intervenes by giving us the love for others they spoke of at the beginning
- 27:12that there are some marches. There are not some marches where women demonstrate and
- 27:18I would like to say that, because I do not agree with that type
- 27:23of march, but I am not against it either. I mean, and
- 27:29it' s not that they don' t judge me, because all those
- 27:34women who walk the streets bring a wound, a wound to their heart,
- 27:41a lost daughter, a rape or suffering that they carry. Now like the
- 27:48black Berry, his stone in the foot dragging no and this, but each
- 27:56of those women is going to have a personal encounter with Christ and it is
- 28:02necessary that at some point they have that encounter so that they can be healthy
- 28:07and can be free and can leave that weight that casino. And more than
- 28:12anything is the purpose of this little talk that we know the story of other
- 28:21women who have also suffered what we have suffered Perhaps on different levels, perhaps
- 28:26there will be someone who says no one has suffered sexual abuse. The Bible
- 28:30speaks of sexual abuse. Tamar a girl was abused by her own brother.
- 28:40Another girl was abused by her father- in- law. And there is
- 28:45no pain that you may have, that God cannot understand. And each of
- 28:51these women' s stories teach us that, however great our pain is,
- 28:56there is much greater healing. Still day is only to believe that we accept,
- 29:04that we believe and that we receive that love that we may have been
- 29:07owed since birth and that we have been looking for it in something that is
- 29:15not going to take advantage of and we have forgotten that there is someone who
- 29:18loves us as we are and did so to us and allowed the situations that
- 29:25had to happen to find healing to pass, as this woman had to spend
- 29:30five husbands, five failures in her life to find true love, the one
- 29:36that was never going to abandon her. And let' s talk now,
- 29:38then, to Gris, I don' t know if you want to share
- 29:42with us what woman you want to share with us tonight. My name is
- 29:47Gris Chris Celda I' m the wife of the pastor of Zone Four.
- 29:52Okay. One of the women who caught my attention was Lydia' s the
- 29:57day. She was a woman, a seller of purple cloths, and she,
- 30:07though she was a merchant, she gave herself the time to listen to
- 30:15Paul. But for that, she gave place to God in her heart.
- 30:26He was preparing Lydia' s heart for that word Paul was going to share
- 30:33with her, to reach the depths of her heart and it was the way
- 30:40she could accept Jesus Christ as her savior. And that' s a great
- 30:48example of how she since she became, she was a woman that she also
- 30:55began to evangelize, cared about others. Truth, and that' s a
- 31:02great example that I can see in this woman that how she was a woman
- 31:10who loved God why, because she did it from the heart, she gave
- 31:15it up completely and it was the way she served God, she honored him
- 31:21through her work, through her finances, because she was a woman. Well,
- 31:32speaking economically, because businesswoman, businesswoman, yes, you can say in
- 31:37your entrepreneur exactly then I can see in her how she was, then,
- 31:44very sensitive to God' s voice and gave herself up. And for that
- 31:49truly invites us as a great example of how she was a woman who loved
- 31:59salt more. And so, in the same way, we also have to
- 32:05do it. Not to be able to share with them those who don'
- 32:10t know him yet. It is within us to share with them the love
- 32:16of Christ of how much he loves them, of how, that no matter
- 32:21the condition that they find, that he always has a word and can still
- 32:30get it out of the problems very difficult that she is. She may be
- 32:35a woman more than conquering, true, because that is what we, as
- 32:42daughters of God, are more than conquering in Christ, Jesus, and that
- 32:47is what he was very little that is shared and was one of the women,
- 32:52the first woman in Europe to be converted to Christ. Well, what
- 32:59an interesting life for Lydia. I' m very struck by what you mentioned
- 33:01at the beginning that I was a saleswoman, that is. The women we
- 33:07talked about here weren' t extraordinary women, they didn' t come from
- 33:12royalty, they didn' t come from royal cots, they weren' t
- 33:17actresses. She was a woman, a housewife Eva who was alone away from
- 33:24her husband We saw a woman who had five husbands, who could not have
- 33:32a stable emotional relationship and we see a selling woman, that is, someone
- 33:39who was perhaps not very prominent, but how God touched each of their lives
- 33:46differently. That' s why I was talking to them at first. Maybe
- 33:51you' re going to identify with one of them, that is, an
- 33:53entrepreneurial woman dedicated to her business, perhaps alone, because it was also badly
- 34:01seen at the time that a single woman started selling. Now, that a
- 34:07struggling mom then and suddenly comes God and touches her life and changes her life
- 34:14completely. Not then some entrepreneur here is out there saying life is good.
- 34:20You' ve treated me so badly I have to do things. I'
- 34:22m alone, because she' s not alone. God sent Paul to Lydia
- 34:25to meet him and tell him you are not alone in your struggle to bring
- 34:30your family forward. It' s a nice story. He is a man
- 34:34who is hidden in the Bible that almost no one speaks of her and beautiful
- 34:39qualities, not what a beautiful character a fighting woman. Then I don'
- 34:45t know if you can identify with them. We' ve already had three.
- 34:49I don' t know, marita that you love the person you did
- 34:53live in the Royal Palace. She was Rispa. He didn' t go
- 34:58to talk about her. Not Rispancho. It' s a story that brought
- 35:04me and hid me. The truth is, this son was studying her and
- 35:07I was saying what strength a woman with that one, with that caste.
- 35:16This one has a lot to teach us. She was King Saul' s
- 35:22concubine. But while David I' m going to explain a little bit about
- 35:30who she was. Historical transport fund so we can understand what happened in your
- 35:34deal. She with Saul' s concubine, and when David was already reigning,
- 35:44there were three years of drought, scarcity, famine, and sterility.
- 35:50Then, in those three years, the whole nation was suffering and was suffering.
- 35:54Samuel consulted God to find out the reason or why God is his lot
- 35:59this nation in such a way. And God answered that it was because Saul,
- 36:06when he was king, lacked a covenant, a covenant with the people
- 36:10of the Ammonites. Then, Saul, that is, the covenant was that
- 36:19they would defend each other, that they would not attack each other, that
- 36:22they would be allies. No, but Saul lacked that loyalty and almost ex
- 36:30ended this Gabaon village. No. So, God upset with this, check
- 36:36it out. What I saw here was that previously there were no contracts before
- 36:42a notary. It was the word of honor. In fact, not many
- 36:46generations ago. The contracts were word- based and respected and now not.
- 36:54That' s why they have jobs, notaries. No. But, Saul
- 36:59failed this covenant and by that, rather, because of this, God whipped
- 37:06the nation ok So, David, what he did was to meet with the
- 37:12few of the remaining people of Gibeonites and told them, because we want to
- 37:19make up for that so that it is scarce, is to stop so that
- 37:23the nation can develop, what we can do. Obviously, they didn'
- 37:30t want money, like everyone else. I think, most human beings are
- 37:35bad. They sought vengeance and revenge to exterminate Saul' s offspring. Then
- 37:49he delivered them up, save to Mephi Bosheth, because he had a covenant
- 37:54with Jonathan. That he wasn' t going to support him, that he
- 37:58was going to take care of him. But the two sons of Rispa were
- 38:04Jamoni and Mephiboceth, not the son of Jonathan, but the son of Saul.
- 38:12And he gave them to him, two of them, and theirs to
- 38:15the rest of Saul' s descendants, and the Gibeonites hanged them all the
- 38:24seed together with the children of Rispa. And what Rispa did was that she
- 38:30spread a rough cloth, a stone. And she was for five months,
- 38:37which is what the barley harvest lasts, guarding the carcasses of her children on
- 38:43the day that they were not destroyed by birds of prey and in the night,
- 38:51that they were not attacked, that the wild beasts did not eat them.
- 38:58That time she was there, I mean imagine, that is the suffering,
- 39:05that is, the same pain that she had, she made her act
- 39:09this way, that is, she didn' t care about the cold she
- 39:14didn' t care about the and even face beasts or imagine facing one if
- 39:19I' m afraid of pitbully dogs, imagine a wolf or some are or
- 39:24I don' t know how to face it to care for a corpse,
- 39:31that is, for the animal forgiveness is served dinner and she stood between that
- 39:36acque. This came to the ears of King David, who was aware of
- 39:47this situation. This woman is not teaching us the deep love of a mother,
- 39:55loyalty and fidelity to her own principles, that is, to her demands.
- 40:02And this what David did went to talk to the Gabonites to recover not
- 40:09only the bodies of those people who had been liquidated on this occasion, but
- 40:15also the body of Saul and Jonathan who had them in their position, in
- 40:17their possession, Then she managed to dignify his name, honoring his memory of
- 40:28his loved ones and giving them a dignified burial. It' s not impressive
- 40:38that good and what I want to highlight and what remained for me, which
- 40:42sowed me that this woman made her pain her strength. I mean, it
- 40:50' s impressive, because we all, at some point, have a situation,
- 40:58whether it' s to a lesser or a greater degree. We all
- 41:00face difficult situations in our lives and often tend to cry and stay there.
- 41:12It is necessary that we learn from Rispa' s life to take strength also
- 41:20in our lives and do what we suffer a measurement so that we can get
- 41:29out of the situations of what the king is on this occasion dignified Rispa and
- 41:38fulfilled in her the request that she had to be able to bury her loved
- 41:45ones and also in Rispa, because also the woman, Mary Magdalene, but
- 41:54she told them to her soon, because I think it is already very good
- 42:00to look how interesting also the story of this woman, not how many people
- 42:06do not identify with the smell of a mother who has lost their children,
- 42:09who does not know where their bodies are and who, as the shepherd said
- 42:15well, how her sadness becomes her strength and do not give up? And
- 42:24even in the midst of your pain, God is? And even in the
- 42:28midst of her pain, God touched the king' s heart to do justice
- 42:32to her. And on the path of sadness, of despair, of abandonment,
- 42:37of not knowing where my children are, there is hope for you also
- 42:43as mothers. There is hope in God, there is comfort in God,
- 42:50and there is a faith that he can touch the hearts of people that although
- 42:54for that we that is impossible, but it was also impossible for five months
- 43:00to mourn the bodies of the corpses. I can' t imagine how old
- 43:02they might be. I want to think they were kids. I imagine it
- 43:07to have that pain for them and in the context of Saul, I imagine
- 43:13that now they have been little ones between ten and fourteen years old, when
- 43:19much and not being able to enjoy being a mother, because someone else snatches
- 43:23it from you. But in the midst of that pain, the Bible presents
- 43:27us that there is hope, that a miracle can occur, truth, and
- 43:37we are not alone on the path of sadness. Someone else who wants to
- 43:43comment on some of these stunning women, not who have brought us with their
- 43:49stories very hidden in the heart of the Bible, but who have been of
- 43:53strength to many others who know their stories and who I hope now that you
- 43:57know them, you can also buy to leave a little bit of identifying yourself
- 44:05in some area with these women. I want to share with you now the
- 44:08story that perhaps many people are passing it on to a woman called agar.
- 44:14She was a woman who wasn' t very well seen. Let' s
- 44:20say she was the third in discord and because how we would feel being the
- 44:25wife and having to live with the lover and, worse still, in the
- 44:31sense that Sara wanted to have a baby and she couldn' t. And
- 44:36this young girl arrives, much younger than her, I don' t think
- 44:44she' s more beautiful, because Sara was overbeautiful. The Bible says she
- 44:45was a beautiful woman, she was very intelligent. She loved God, left
- 44:52everything to follow her husband Abraham, who has been the mother of the Jews
- 44:58and the Hebrews. And suddenly this inexperienced little woman appears, a slave who
- 45:08was given to her when she was in front of Pharaoh. After Abraham sadly
- 45:15sold this woman to Sarah, how one would feel if her husband sold her
- 45:21not that I said I' m going to die I better die you.
- 45:27There' s a mine across the street, you go. First, where
- 45:30is Sarah' s dignity as a woman, and she accepted it and in
- 45:37compensation they gave her a slave and this was gripping. He spoke Egyptian,
- 45:42he did not speak Hebrew. Well, it' s adopted by the baby.
- 45:49She feeds him and suddenly she says it' s good to get there.
- 45:55I can' t have children. Take my slave, my slave,
- 46:00to do what I say. This woman earned Sara' s trust. Sara
- 46:04believed him well, you have a friend there not and suddenly she has a
- 46:12baby and wants to take away the kingdom and the slave wants to rule instead
- 46:16of the lady and the husband, because she beats the slave And lawsuits and
- 46:24lawsuits and lawsuits and one good day the slave feels bad. I wasn'
- 46:32t a very good person to say then the slave goes away and there in
- 46:39the distance she says I want to die with everything and I raise because I
- 46:44was kicked out of the house, but she didn' t contribute well either.
- 46:47And at that moment, when she says I want to kill myself because
- 46:52she tried. And then he says my son dies and I' m gonna
- 47:00go away so I don' t see him die. And I' m
- 47:02not even going to make the fight to help him, because I can'
- 47:07t fight anymore. Me alone and suddenly he comes to an angel who we
- 47:12believe is the same lord and tells him what you have agar, why he
- 47:19cries to your son and agar turns and tells him who you are and he
- 47:25tells him I am God, the God of the man you were with and
- 47:30the one who kicked you out of your house. How God can speak to
- 47:35one lover sadly grabs the other. There is forgiveness for when someone takes away
- 47:43my husband perhaps agar At that time he understood that he didn' t do
- 47:50things right, but there was no turning back. She went a desert to
- 47:52die herself and her son, and even in the midst of the pain she
- 48:00did feel of saying I don' t want to see when you die and
- 48:07turned around and no longer wanted to see her son die of thirst and she
- 48:10looks like the lord and tells her to see agar you' re not doing
- 48:16things well. Go back and put your mass on you. Ma' am
- 48:23they' re gonna give you a new chance because, regardless of what they
- 48:28did to Sarah, Sara had love in her heart. Sara was a loving
- 48:34woman, far from how they have not painted that because of her, even
- 48:38Ahorita is in the war between Jews and Palestinians. No, well, one
- 48:45part was right, no, but another wasn' t. So much,
- 48:49it was God' s plan. Then Sara returns, Sara forgives her and
- 48:57she grabs. Just at the moment when the lord speaks to him, the
- 49:00l in the desert agarle says children, you are the same God of the
- 49:06man with whom I slept and is talking to me. I' m not
- 49:12his family. You never talked to me, listened to them, worshiped,
- 49:20put up altars, killed animals. I' ve never been part of it.
- 49:23And now you see me and God tells her if I' m watching
- 49:30you, and I saw that you left your son there and I saw that
- 49:34you left and you said that my son died. They' re not gonna
- 49:36die. There' s a well in front of you and turn around and
- 49:40say I' ll call it that well in a way. The God who
- 49:44sees me was so important the encounter that this woman had with God. Pleased
- 49:52to tell me you see you care, it doesn' t matter that the
- 50:02whole store exiled me, that the one who was supposed to defend me my
- 50:07son' s father runs me with every son and tells me you die in
- 50:10the desert, because you' re grappling with my wife of those times that
- 50:16suddenly you discover infidelity and that they say I don' t want anything anymore.
- 50:17With you, woman, go you and your son and I stay with
- 50:21my family and don' t come and destroy my family and I get rid
- 50:24of you that way and how many women happen that doesn' t hear,
- 50:30I trust you, I believed you told me and suddenly you abandon me.
- 50:36And what do I do with my son Many even take away their jobs,
- 50:40many even denounce them, and what do they do? I go and I
- 50:45am the other and what privileges my son has according to the other son of
- 50:52the inheritance, because the other is of the marriage. I' m one
- 50:53of the other and God says it doesn' t matter. I saw you
- 50:59too I looked at You I appeared to you and I gave you the way
- 51:04out. Twice they ran Gar out of the house. Twice he misbehaved,
- 51:08once when drinking was small and once when he was too big. The second
- 51:15one did not return, but in the second one, God appeared to him
- 51:20again and told him again what you are doing, because they ran me again.
- 51:27It' s just that you misbehaved again. Yeah, okay, you
- 51:31can' t live with the tube of the afterlife and God gives it another
- 51:36completely different life. You' re going to the desert. Your son is
- 51:40already great, he is going to be a hunter, he is going to
- 51:45use the bow and his nation will be so great, so great that he
- 51:52will live by the sword and with the sword he will become a great man
- 51:55Among the nations nineteen peoples. Arab the national of the most powerful nations on
- 52:00the planet, with territories full of oil. Economically they ask nothing from any
- 52:07of the countries with the highest PIP, with the highest quality of life,
- 52:10and they came from one woman who was the other and God did not care
- 52:17that it was the other. He saw his problem and told gar they can
- 52:23' t fit both together. They' re always gonna be fighting. Maybe
- 52:29you didn' t do things right. Hagar won your ambition, he won
- 52:32your envy. You wanted to be in your place. Ma' am.
- 52:37Things didn' t go well, but I give you a new opportunity because
- 52:43we have a God of opportunities and gave Gar a chance, gave him a
- 52:49nation of his own, gave him a successful son and he saw for his
- 52:57son when Abram aba, because Abraham abandoned Ishmael financially he no longer maintained it
- 53:05and that lord was a billionaire. He didn' t even tell him to
- 53:08have a sheep to keep you in the desert. No more. He gave
- 53:12her a little omen and paclo to catch up with you. He didn'
- 53:15t give her territory, he didn' t give her a piece of nation,
- 53:22not even a car to cover the sun and agar was to blame.
- 53:27No, and he washes his hands and Sara stays in his shop because she
- 53:36was the wife to come. She leaves without work, without property, without
- 53:43money, with a son, without family, in a foreign land because she
- 53:46was Egyptian and went to a place where who knows where she was and God
- 53:52helped her in such a way that she raised her home. She alone gave
- 53:58what Wisdom to garla. The Bible does not tell how it helped him.
- 54:01The Bible doesn' t tell us. The only thing that tells us that
- 54:05more than four thousand years later, Ismael is one of the strongest peoples on
- 54:09the planet, equipped with state- of- the- art weaponry, composed
- 54:20endless oil tankers. Then she was not so bad and God gave her Wisdom
- 54:25to create a son alone with nothing, because it did not touch her inheritance.
- 54:31And when beyond, he didn' t even come back for the inheritance.
- 54:36The Bible does not speak of her being present at her father' s
- 54:37funeral. We don’ t even know anything about agar again, but the
- 54:46Bible takes the name of a slave and claims it by saying there is an
- 54:54opportunity regardless of the mistakes life has cornered you. Because agar had no choice.
- 55:02It was like that or yes, whether or not to be with Mr
- 55:07She was a slave, she had no opinion. He arrived as he left,
- 55:13with one hand ahead and one hand behind and worse, he still arrived
- 55:15alone. Now it took one to imagine those conditions. How many women are
- 55:21not going through that situation right now and are not alone yet in your pain,
- 55:28even in your sadness, even in your despair. I' m still
- 55:30going to give my son a gift because I don' t have to feed
- 55:32him. God will always provide, because God provided water to this child.
- 55:38Yes and he said good agar, for the child was not the promise.
- 55:45But I' m not going to leave it, that' s no way.
- 55:51I' m going to pick you up with everything and your son God
- 55:54has arms so big that he picks us up with everything and the family how
- 55:59beautiful and has them so strong that he holds us in them. And that
- 56:02' s what we come here to present today to all the women stories of
- 56:09real women who lived in the past. But they are the same problems right
- 56:15now and that there is a hope for me to respect, there is a
- 56:21hope this I believe that how many women do not live this condition of agar,
- 56:27how many women do not live in that condition of being the other,
- 56:34of feeling used, because that role, that site takes you to the lowest
- 56:40and the meanest thing to be being the other wave woman the other and that
- 56:45your child has no inheritance with the others. And it' s the same
- 56:45if he' s a son too. And here come two very curious things.
- 56:50Economic heritage and spiritual heritage. Yes, they are children of sin.
- 56:55That' s how they' re born out of conditions and she doesn'
- 56:59t ask for it. And that' s the deal. It was me
- 57:01to your son and everyone happy and food Ty was used. Finally, she
- 57:08was used by Abraham because abrad could have said. No woman, things aren
- 57:13' t like that. It' s good. You got upset, you
- 57:16got wild, you got desperate, but hold on, he didn' t
- 57:22take it. Sorry, I can see, like, many times women act
- 57:28and talk about resentment and anger. I can see that this woman, in
- 57:37her rebellion, did so many times for everything she suffered, because we do
- 57:42not know under what conditions she was sold. We do not know the condition
- 57:46in which his heart was and said ok, I have to pretend that I
- 57:52am happy, I have to pretend that nothing happens that this man takes me
- 57:54and I have to have a child nothing more, because this woman cannot in
- 57:59what condition she was, who cared about her feelings and her emotions. And
- 58:02what I can also see is that she also made this move and was rebellious
- 58:08at the anger of seeing them happy to say why they can have everything and
- 58:14why I can' t have mine. So many times we act with anger,
- 58:23anger, no matter what destruction there is, because lovers are what cause,
- 58:29cause, that is, arrive and make a whirl in the family,
- 58:31in the home, absolute destruction to the children, the husband who was unfaithful,
- 58:37but Jesus dignifies us by not giving all the blame to the women,
- 58:43but also responsibility to hold the man responsible. Jesus came and Jesus said I
- 58:49do not come to plead it law, I do not come to the law
- 58:51not be fulfilled. What is more, I come and clarify it as I
- 58:55had it a little bit clearer and I said that he that I look at
- 59:01the level of Jesus how adultery came up to the man when I was talking
- 59:06to them I said to them that he that looks at a woman to covet
- 59:12her and adulter, then he was putting the condition and the man by the
- 59:16eye that we talked about that little bit of qualities and of the woman and
- 59:19of the man. But this woman rained a lot of damage. I saw
- 59:22a lot of damage, but still. Behind all this, as you well
- 59:27mention, Mara, God dignified her, God gave her that authority in some
- 59:31way as a mother. She saw her mother' s pain and God spoke
- 59:37to her and loved her and cared for her best in her anger, because
- 59:39sometimes we have so much anger in life and we say why to me,
- 59:44because I cannot be the wife, because it touched me in an unfaithful husband,
- 59:47because I am happening these things since I was a child. But suddenly
- 59:52God comes into our life and we don' t know how to respond.
- 59:55This Samaritan woman you were talking to us with Christi was what gave her.
- 1:00:00He said you' re talking to me. You tell me that I give
- 1:00:02you drink surprised and surprised and many times we find it hard to understand that
- 1:00:08great love that Jesus has for us, because we are not used to someone
- 1:00:14giving us that value, giving us that love and all the characters that we
- 1:00:17are talking about, the base and the wounds that have led us perhaps to
- 1:00:24believe that we do not have that value that we need. We don'
- 1:00:30t deserve that forgiveness and that grace, although we don' t deserve it,
- 1:00:35but it' s free. That' s why it' s funny.
- 1:00:36We don' t deserve it. It is a gift from God And
- 1:00:39it is to all those who feel identified that they say that I have not
- 1:00:45done good things, they do not understand me. We' re talking real
- 1:00:47lives. We are talking to people, people who have done things and are
- 1:00:52in the Bible. Sometimes we believe that God is far away, that God
- 1:00:57does not understand our feelings. You' ll never understand the p that I
- 1:01:00' m in and of course not. He is always attentive to our cry,
- 1:01:05He is always attentive to our pains, to our rebellions, even though
- 1:01:10sometimes he does not like them. Obviously, he wants us to look for
- 1:01:14him, to live in a life where we really like him. So it
- 1:01:17' s awesome what we' re hearing. Notice that I also know that
- 1:01:24story to be born because I had to do a study on Abraham and I
- 1:01:34see another point different from how they commented and I am going to say this.
- 1:01:39Yes, I understand the point that I take your option because you'
- 1:01:44re a slave and you' ve been forced to take my slave so that
- 1:01:50you have a child with her, since I, Sara, can' t
- 1:01:52have children. To begin with, Sara, I don' t trust the
- 1:01:55promise God gave her and they were going to have a child, we'
- 1:01:59re going to put Sarah aside by talking about agar hejole, why satan uses
- 1:02:07women to agar well. He could have taken the option of saying ok already,
- 1:02:14God gave me the opportunity to live with my son and not die in
- 1:02:17the desert and gave me this territory to be prosperous. But what happened to
- 1:02:22aga many times the resentment and resentment of telling his son Ishmael is that you
- 1:02:28are the firstborn. It is not yes, I explain then that' s
- 1:02:36where the wars we have to this day for the fight in which Ishmael says
- 1:02:40we are. That' s right. So we have to be wise about
- 1:02:47what we' re building or putting into our children' s hearts, hatred,
- 1:02:53resentment, what are we feeding them? That' s how I understand
- 1:02:59the part of getting there if I understand, but he had the option of
- 1:03:02doing things differently and he didn' t. He sowed in his son Ismael
- 1:03:06Rencor and the resentment and wars between Palestine and Israel, for it is that
- 1:03:12issue, that problem that we still have today talking about agar, talking without
- 1:03:19taking into account the issue of agar, that he was a slave and that
- 1:03:24she was forced today as women, I think we deserve a respect in the
- 1:03:34aspect that if I know that Martita has her husband, I why I am
- 1:03:39going to mess with your husband. I' m not respecting and if I
- 1:03:46decide to be your husband' s lover, I' m going to suffer
- 1:03:51the consequences and I' m not going to victimize myself in saying that I
- 1:03:53' m the lover. I have no inheritance. I don' t have,
- 1:03:55because it' s the consequences of your bad decisions. In God we
- 1:04:01have mercy. In God we have forgiveness. Come closer, confess in the
- 1:04:09Lord the things you are doing wrong. It' s never too late,
- 1:04:13I mean, I see that point of a little bit different agar. I
- 1:04:18think the difference here is that she was in a state of slavery. Thank
- 1:04:23God we' re no longer slaves to that kind of thing. Already to
- 1:04:30the Lord that we are free from a long time ago and we can choose.
- 1:04:34And as you well say Erika, today we are free to choose what
- 1:04:40not to do. And that role of a lover or of being a third
- 1:04:45person in discord, is a role that ends morally and we see it as
- 1:04:51well as you say it, You led to convey all that to your own
- 1:04:59son, because although it is presented to him with all this angel and he
- 1:05:02met and was given all that. It is also worth mentioning that many times
- 1:05:06the Lord is always for us. I rescue in all these women who were
- 1:05:12never alone. He waited for this woman, Sara Maritana. There he took
- 1:05:17the time, He knew he was going to get there and there he was
- 1:05:21and we see with each of them how he presents himself at the moment where
- 1:05:27they need him and presents himself. But we also know he' s a
- 1:05:30gentleman. He' s a gentleman and he' s not gonna make us.
- 1:05:32We have the decision to walk, to let go, to be free
- 1:05:39in their arms, to leave us, to restore our hearts, to restore
- 1:05:45our lives and to change completely. Now we are weak and cooperating and that
- 1:05:48changes our lives, that transforms our generations, but also sometimes the foolishness,
- 1:05:57our heart is going to follow with all this is a role that does not
- 1:06:02dignify the woman and that many times now. At present, many women choose
- 1:06:10it on their own is more even as suddenly it is already some fashion for
- 1:06:15many to feel with an ego, although inside we know that it is something
- 1:06:21that fills them with voids of them. Well, imagine how ugly it is
- 1:06:30to feel that you are not able to have a man for yourself, that
- 1:06:32you have to share him with someone else than finally, as Mara said,
- 1:06:39Just like you came in like this, you' re going to leave because
- 1:06:42that' s how these women end up. But he' s always going
- 1:06:45to be Jesus Christ for them, he' s always going to be there
- 1:06:50when it comes to meeting them and telling him I' m what you need.
- 1:06:54I' m that love you need. You don' t have to
- 1:06:58beg for the love of one who shares it with you with another woman.
- 1:07:01When I can dignify you, I can fill you, I can restore you,
- 1:07:06I can make you feel a special woman, without needing you to lose
- 1:07:12your courage in a situation that will end you as a woman. But that
- 1:07:16is a choice that we too have to learn to learn. Thank you very
- 1:07:23much. Someone else who wants to comment Erri and finally, what a woman
- 1:07:28you bring us. Ok I bring one from the Old Testament is called Gomer,
- 1:07:34who married a minor prophet who speaks the Bible that is, I don
- 1:07:39' t know if you' ve heard of it. Okay, this woman
- 1:07:44was a prostitute and God commands her, so I' ll look for her
- 1:07:49and marry her. She says you' re going to find this woman to
- 1:07:56get married, you' re going to be your wife and you' re
- 1:07:58going to have children with her. I told him about this story. She
- 1:08:01is tremendous, she marries bears, she has children, but this woman was
- 1:08:08used to a joyful life, to a life of getting what she wanted through
- 1:08:13her body. No, and he says no. I' m not comfortable.
- 1:08:17I mean, it was like being a holy man. He was a
- 1:08:20rich man who had everything, had a home, had food, had luxuries
- 1:08:28and she felt, felt she didn' t deserve it just because she was
- 1:08:33a prostitute. Says I, as a positive woman, am going to deserve
- 1:08:39all this that he' s giving me. Being a good man, I
- 1:08:42' m going back to the lovers that I had them buy me my dresses,
- 1:08:47buy me my jewelry, buy me my paintings. She leaves herself and
- 1:08:54returns to Prostitute again ends up worse, ends up as a slave, that
- 1:09:04is, she finds her again because God says b and looks for her and
- 1:09:11went and looked for her and bought her for fifteen ounces of silver and one
- 1:09:19and a half oyster of barley that at that time will be a lot of
- 1:09:28money, that is, she fell lower from being a prostitute because being a
- 1:09:30slave. Before she sold her body for slave money it was nothing to do
- 1:09:35for free without one more weight. However, you paid for her and gave
- 1:09:42her the choice not to live as a slave, but to make the decision
- 1:09:45to love her for what she was. Then we see in this story that
- 1:09:54God will always redeem us, even though we think that we do not look
- 1:10:00like it to me, even though we think that our past accuses us.
- 1:10:04The past is behind us. God forgave you and wants you to live for
- 1:10:11him and make the decision to love him, not because you are a slave,
- 1:10:15but because he has redeemed you. You decide to love him so you
- 1:10:18can be happy. That' s the story I' m bringing. Tremendous
- 1:10:23is not a posititud and God gives it a chance, that is, there
- 1:10:30is no such thing as you want to be and at first there is no
- 1:10:33sin small or great. For God, just redemption. That is the synonym
- 1:10:41of God, redemption. Thank you, Enough, Enough, Grace, at
- 1:10:45the moment you need it for each of us and according to our needs,
- 1:10:49also what our podcast today seemed to everyone who is was interesting. It was
- 1:10:58not anything different with such a story of a woman who has marked us as
- 1:11:03in our Christian life. This is how we put them to work, really,
- 1:11:09to look for an iconic woman from the Bible. But for us to
- 1:11:13see that the Bible sometimes many people consider it to be so holy that they
- 1:11:16cannot speak of things as low as such a work. Not from Gomer,
- 1:11:24for example, or from a forgotten story, from a abandoned woman like the
- 1:11:29Samaritan, or from a lonely entrepreneur who had to fight her because she had
- 1:11:33no one in a man made to measure and likeness of men where the economy
- 1:11:38was of men, which was not easy And still there she said good all
- 1:11:44my wealth. I' m going to put her in God' s service.
- 1:11:48Amazing how life changes him. No And let' s see the last
- 1:11:55one already to Kari, the woman also spoke to us Martita of Risa,
- 1:12:00a woman as very rare, also with the love of a mother and the
- 1:12:04last woman who will impart Kary Forgiveness and we are almost gone. It was
- 1:12:11my turn to talk about Marta and Maria and it' s done to me.
- 1:12:14It' s one of the first things I love, because I feel
- 1:12:18like sometimes we talk about a Jesus, like he doesn' t understand us.
- 1:12:23And so when I entered the Gospel, that was my perspective as very
- 1:12:29religious. Then I might have been doing my experience to God or Jesus,
- 1:12:34far away, but I started reading the Bible and I started reading it as
- 1:12:40a friend. Then that made me see Jesus differently and I want to tell
- 1:12:45you about Luke ten thirty- eight where Jesus comes to visit Martha and Mary.
- 1:12:50He says he was in Ota Aldea and walked where they were. Then
- 1:12:55this was very much because he was tired. The disciples came hungry and here
- 1:13:00we see two Bible characters who are two women who were very attached to Jesus.
- 1:13:09Then the Bible tells us that a woman dedicated herself to making the food,
- 1:13:14to making the water fresh, because I imagine they came in a lot
- 1:13:16of heat. But another woman, who is Mary, says she sat at
- 1:13:19Jesus' feet to listen when he spoke. Then I saw it. But
- 1:13:25I get a little out of the context of the Bible and sometimes I take
- 1:13:31that away from things that we ourselves create or teach us. And I said
- 1:13:34wow is not like all men. True, in some way, Jesus told
- 1:13:41Martha practically, Martha no matter what the food, true twenty, you better
- 1:13:47be with me here listening to the word, because this is more uplifting.
- 1:13:53So sometimes I talk for moms because we talk different topics. But I,
- 1:13:58as a mother who works his wife as a pastor, that I have my
- 1:14:03daughters, Elementary, High School, University, then it is a lot of
- 1:14:08work And sometimes I have heard many women who come with this emotional burden to
- 1:14:12more than home that they say is that nobody sees me the value I have,
- 1:14:16because I only serve to cook and I see here the value that Jesus
- 1:14:21gave to Martha when he told her womanily told Marta, Marta, that is
- 1:14:27to say twice Marta Marta as tenderly, not because it was a friendship that
- 1:14:33they had. They Jesus loved Martha very much and Mary and Lazarus were his
- 1:14:40friends, They were people very close to him. And let' s remember
- 1:14:45that when he dies, I told my husband love is that Jesus doesn'
- 1:14:47t say, doesn' t say who moves the stone. When he arrived
- 1:14:50and that Jesus that Lazarus had already died. Then he claimed why you took
- 1:14:55so long. And Jesus didn' t tell you that you do believe or
- 1:14:59that' s to us so naturally and I say oh father. Sometimes we
- 1:15:01don' t understand you and you' re so clear and you say move
- 1:15:06the stone and I say love. I was telling my wife love, I
- 1:15:09love Jesus because he tells us I don' t want to eat twenty.
- 1:15:12Don' t make 20 of me. You' re strong enough. Perhaps
- 1:15:16he told them to move the stone and Jesus was like that. Then sometimes
- 1:15:21we feel that weight, that burden. I don' t know if it
- 1:15:28' s happened to you grandmas, like they' re the ones that the
- 1:15:31woman isn' t for the house and the woman doesn' t have to
- 1:15:33work the woman. This one' s for home. But here Jesus is
- 1:15:38giving us a value beyond the kitchen, because sometimes it is frustrating that nothing
- 1:15:44else we serve for the kitchen, for washing, for ironing, and we
- 1:15:47are hidden there. But Jesus, with all this that we have talked about,
- 1:15:51gives us such an important value and perhaps seems pointless. But really,
- 1:15:58many women frustrated because they didn' t perform, because they didn' t
- 1:16:02take a career because they think that their value as moms or as housewives don
- 1:16:09' t take it seriously, being that it' s very heavy, that
- 1:16:14it' s a really difficult job, because nothing else is washing, nothing
- 1:16:16else is making the season come out, it' s beyond truth. So
- 1:16:21it is also very, very, very beautiful the story of Mars of Mary.
- 1:16:28It is true how God says breathes no, or it is also necessary
- 1:16:35that you rest is understanding. It is a facet of God who gives us
- 1:16:40as a human that he was sympathetic to women. He understood the work that
- 1:16:45it was that he came to a house because they went and never walked alone,
- 1:16:48for he had twelve, that is, it was to arrive with twelve
- 1:16:54and hungry more those who were added to him and for how much food you
- 1:16:59had to make no, and yet, he a person incomprehensive, well loving,
- 1:17:02is that that is what defines God that woman. Yes, right,
- 1:17:05I imagine that she also invited Marta to her presence, also because in her
- 1:17:12presence we found rest. That' s when we' re home moms.
- 1:17:15As Kary rightly says, moments of frustration suddenly come, because it is a
- 1:17:20matter of never ending, it is a topic of every day and it is
- 1:17:25a subject that has no deadline. Then they come. I think we all
- 1:17:30get those moments, but he invited Marta and I think that' s how
- 1:17:34he invites us to come to me. So I rest there and I'
- 1:17:40m going to give you the strength to get up tomorrow and cook with more
- 1:17:43season, with more desire and every time you sit down. So frustrated come
- 1:17:48to me, as Mary did to my feet here come embrace. Kary spoke
- 1:17:55to him twice with love, because that' s how he talks to us,
- 1:18:00with that love of us getting close in any situation. I see all
- 1:18:02these women and the lord is for any of the situations that we are each
- 1:18:08experiencing so it is wo you want comforts. Comment, because for me it
- 1:18:15is my favorite passage. Martha loved Jesus, but there is someone who has
- 1:18:20to do the work, the service. Then I rescue Marta. And finally,
- 1:18:26I' d like to comment on Maria. Mary Magdalene, she writes
- 1:18:29a lot about her, a few phrases about Mary Magdalene. Many times they
- 1:18:34confuse her with the woman, that the prostitute, who was apprehended. But
- 1:18:40it has nothing to do with her. Nor was she the woman who poured
- 1:18:45perfumes on Jesus. Neither was Mary Magdalene. She was the woman who was
- 1:18:50freed from seven spirits and gives so much her love and gratitude to Jesus Christ
- 1:18:59that they gave themselves soul to body and all that she had, because through
- 1:19:04her finances, she supported Jesus And in the Bible she mentions that she was
- 1:19:14present in all the crucifixion of Jesus and she was the first to receive the
- 1:19:19firstfruits of the resurrection also of Jesus Christ. She' s been there today.
- 1:19:29We care a lot about how people see us, how it is the
- 1:19:36reputation that or what people have about us, but I think that, just
- 1:19:43as Mary Magdalene cared little that she was sighted and Jesus dignified her in such
- 1:19:48a way that he became part of his tem part of his work team that
- 1:19:53it was impressive and did not care what people thought. She put herself at
- 1:20:03Jesus' command to serve. So when we understand that part of what we
- 1:20:11should care about is how God sees us when we find the meaning of life,
- 1:20:15he says in the first of Corinthians thirteen in the last part that says
- 1:20:23I don' t remember very much. When I a child spoke as a
- 1:20:26child, I thought as a child, I judged as a child more when
- 1:20:30I was a man of gel that was as a child. Now we know
- 1:20:32in part more, Then we will see clearly, Now we see in mirror
- 1:20:40darker, then we will see face to face. And now this one I
- 1:20:45know in part, but then I will know how I was known something like
- 1:20:49that, less words, more words in the version, in the new international
- 1:20:58translation says I will know how God knows me. So imagine, I mean,
- 1:21:01thinking about that opinion. What God thinks of me And it' s
- 1:21:11not that God sees the whole world and that He says this world is getting
- 1:21:15bad. He does not see each person individually, just as Job even presumed.
- 1:21:20No, in this situation he also sees us as individual That' s
- 1:21:28how he can see what Jesus thinks about us. That is what should interest
- 1:21:32us and that is what we must put in first instance, how he sees
- 1:21:42me and what the opinion is, because at some point I will run into
- 1:21:45him. I' m going to be in front of him and the only
- 1:21:49opinion that' s going to matter at that time from the world ent is
- 1:21:54going to come out leftover. No And it' s beautiful when we have
- 1:22:00a loved one who dignifies us and gives us the opportunity to be those good
- 1:22:05women, those women full of integritys, are women full of love and compassion
- 1:22:12toward others. OK, thank you, thank you. Yes, it is
- 1:22:15true what a beautiful story of Mary Magdalene. Very few of us knew her,
- 1:22:19well. And so, to finish, what do you want to share
- 1:22:23with us now gray to say goodbye, what do you think of all these
- 1:22:27women, of God' s opinion. No, because the truth gave this
- 1:22:29now yes, I blessed myself greatly with each of the stories. This,
- 1:22:38the Lord here shows us how he, in his great mercy in his great
- 1:22:42love and forgiveness. He is always, always ready to embrace us, to
- 1:22:50console us for very difficult yes, of what we are facing. He'
- 1:22:57ll always be there. That' s right, those can invite you what
- 1:23:00we want to do to all the women who are going through some difficult situation.
- 1:23:06The Lord is always with open arms to embrace, love and heal them
- 1:23:16and heal them mainly from his soul and heart. Thank you, Christi,
- 1:23:23what do you want to share with us, that you leave us with him
- 1:23:26as you teach. In the end we talk that these women are not always
- 1:23:34alone. He always looked for ways to get to them, but he came
- 1:23:44before them and was with them. But it' s your stay and your
- 1:23:50presence. It is for every day, Martita said, how he sees us
- 1:23:58that the day we open our hearts to him and receive him from that day
- 1:24:03he is with us until the last days. We' re not alone and
- 1:24:11I think we' re all transformed women here. We have received thanks,
- 1:24:16we have a witness each, but you too can be a transformed woman,
- 1:24:21a woman of grace to a woman of witness, a woman who can walk
- 1:24:27and say I am not alone. From today, Jesus Christ is with me
- 1:24:32and every situation that comes before my life, he will give me the way
- 1:24:38out and he will be with me until the last day of my existence.
- 1:24:44That' s nice. Thanks, Luis and Eric What do you leave us
- 1:24:48at the end, Who' s left and I' m going to go
- 1:24:53back a little bit to what Kari said about Marta were sisters and what to
- 1:25:02say goodbye, what do I say? Many times we are busy in our
- 1:25:06day to day, in our work, in our work, and we leave
- 1:25:12in the second part, which is more important, God says the word of
- 1:25:18God instructs the child in his way and when he is great, he will
- 1:25:23turn us away from him. Why I' m talking about it. And
- 1:25:25I' ve told them in previous podcasts and I' ve told a lot
- 1:25:28of people who know me and people who know me. I lost my son.
- 1:25:32If I, far from striving in my day to day, to take
- 1:25:38out to eat, to take out for their studies, to take out to
- 1:25:42underdress me, I would focus a little more. Or let' s focus
- 1:25:45a little bit more on what' s really important in your child soul,
- 1:25:51things will be different. That' s why we' re women, we
- 1:25:56' re pillars for our families, and if we focus our knowledge on what
- 1:26:02' s really important, believe me that our children would be right here right
- 1:26:05now is true. Thank you, I do, Martita, she does love
- 1:26:09us. I want to sow in you, friends and in those who are
- 1:26:14seeing us making our life a delight for God, that he sees us and
- 1:26:18smiles not yes, what a beautiful Council. The applause of the people lasts
- 1:26:26two seconds for Princess Leonor of Spain. They lasted a minute applauding him and
- 1:26:33it was the record, a minute that is already the queen. They'
- 1:26:38re two always deadly. Just be two seconds. It lasts the applause of
- 1:26:42the people more the love and gratitude to God for us that rewarded eternity.
- 1:26:50Yes, that' s what I want to sow and a greeting. I
- 1:26:54love them so much. Thank you, thank you, that' s nice,
- 1:26:58advice. Finally, you want to leave us good, because I want
- 1:27:01to let them know our value. We are virtuous, we are loved,
- 1:27:09we are valuable to that God who gave his son or to die for us
- 1:27:13and the day we understand that, we are going to value ourselves and we
- 1:27:17are going to give ourselves such an important place, because it is the one
- 1:27:20he gives us. We have a lot of responsibility for our home, in
- 1:27:26our home, we have many struggles that in prayer on our knees for our
- 1:27:30children, because since these times it is complicated by our marriage, for this
- 1:27:35protection. And that' s just a mother who dedicates herself to prayer,
- 1:27:40a wife who dedicates herself to prayer, has the power because she doesn'
- 1:27:45t have enough time to maybe more than men. And we are capable because
- 1:27:48God put and deposited in women very important and very valuable things. And all
- 1:27:54we have to do is search and understand what our role is And so,
- 1:27:58I invite you to continue in those podcasts because I think you' re going
- 1:28:01to be of great blessing and greetings to everyone. Thank you very much.
- 1:28:03Well, then, thank you all very much for coming to the end and
- 1:28:08I hope you have kept each of these beautiful blessings that you shared with us
- 1:28:12every single one of our weeks, which are from the Ministry of Mass and
- 1:28:15Hearts in harmony, represent, as I said at the beginning, each of
- 1:28:21the churches in the area. Thank you, for being with us, thank
- 1:28:25you for trusting the project. I hope it' s not the last time
- 1:28:28or the first time you visit us something you' re going to do to
- 1:28:30us. A second one is missing, yes, and we are invited to
- 1:28:32a second private one to put it there in the comments. And they want
- 1:28:35a second part, because there are still many women to talk about that we
- 1:28:41needed and thank you very much for being here, thanks for your time and,
- 1:28:45well, many congratulations to all for your day and for our day and
- 1:28:50thanks, above all, for having trusted in the project again and for being
- 1:28:54here that we hope that it will be repeated again. Thank you very much,
- 1:29:01well, we' ll see you until the next podcast is excellent.
- 1:29:05See you later.
