A while ago I read a sign that said to not take life too seriously, since we are not going to get out of it alive after all. Life is rarely a walk in the park but it is in the moments of hardship and difficulty that God wants to come alongside to show us that not even death can separate us from his love. In those moments of difficulty, who will you trust to get you through? More than a manual of good principles and morality, the Bible is God’s life-giving story through Jesus Christ. Because of what Jesus has done for us, we are now able to choose life in spite of our spiritual blindness, Jesus is the One we can trust to get us safely through this valley of death.

Why is faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior God’s gracious provision to enable us to choose life?

Faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior is God’s gracious provision to enable us to choose life because…

In spite of our spiritual blindness, Jesus is the fulfillment of God’s Old Covenant promises who opens our eyes to God’s gift of life Luke 24:13-35.
1. Jesus is the proof that God always keeps his Word.
2. Jesus walks alongside us in spite of our lack of spiritual perspicacity bringing us to his table.
In spite of our fears, doubts, and troubles, Jesus has overcome death and called us to freely share his life through our life Luke 24:36-43.
1. Peace instead of fear.
2. Our mission: his suffering for our forgiveness.

To choose life -Trust and follow Jesus Christ.

Dios con nosotros en todo tiempo | Salmo 46

February 22, 2026by Dr. Hugo Gallegos

El salmo 46 es un cántico de “esperanza y confianza”. El salmo se divide en tres estrofas. La primera estrofa, es “una invitación a seguir confiando en el Dios de toda esperanza en medio de las crisis de la vida”. En la segunda estrofa, el salmista revela “quien debe ser Dios para nosotros”. Y, por último, “lo que Dios puede hacer por nosotros”. Entonces, este salmo enseña que el Señor en tiempos de dificultades, crisis, temor y desesperanza; Él es amparo, fortaleza, auxilio, refugio, fuente de esperanza, seguridad, y victoria.
