…It is I; have no fear… (John 6.20)

            The sea is beautiful, but sometimes if revolt. The roar of water scares, the wind in the shaketh and death seems very closely. Are not few times when we lose hope.

            Jesus Christ never promised us absence of windstorms. They have always existed, until in the life of him. And he faced with great courage and total determination. But mainly, with faith. Waters revolts never startled. The strong wind never did tremble of fear.

            Looking to Jesus we see walking in the midst of the tempest. He does not follow before and nor afterward. He walks in the middle of the excitement of the waters.

            Jesus Christ not facing away storms. He penetrates "in the eye" of hurricanes. It dominates the untimely gusts of wind, soothes the fury of the waters, transforms the destructive forces and illumines the darkness murderous.

            The disciples thought that they were far, when he was so near. Not only had seen. And they have encountered Jesus walking within the tempest. In fact, even if not we are seeing - and not even we look for his presence - he is there.

            -Jesus, save us! - shouted desperate.

            But Jesus was already present. Even that eyes unbelievers, fearful and filled with astonishment, nothing to boost trade in addition to a ghost. The terror distorts the vision, overthrows the reality - but does not change the Person of Jesus.

            Is lack of bread or money; in the middle of great sorrow that wasted the soul or terrible illness which punish the body; a loss, an empty or hopelessness - I say to you now: Stop where it is. Firm his feet. Look ahead: Sharpen your ears and listen to Jesus say:

            - I AM. Fear not!

            He never promised you a calm sea, sky blue or soft breeze. But guaranteed pick you, welcome it and save it in the midst of storms. Not theme. The Bonanza is Jesus.

                                                         God bless you.

                            SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN SANTA CRUZ

              "Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of their mighty ones."

                                                (Salm 116.15)

            We were surprised this morning with the information of a serious accident with a micro-bus of Peniel Santa Cruz de La Sierra. The vehicle drove a missionary group, eight people. In consequence, the Missionary ERIC and one child died. The Missionary ABISMAEL, commanding the team, also suffered injury and has already been released. There was a collision with a truck in the Highway between Santa Cruz de La Sierra and Montero, on site called Park Aqualand.

            That the Holy Spirit console to work in Bolivia, to Peniel Pastor MICHAEL MONDINO - which is quite shaken, pastors and missionaries, to the beloved brothers of Peniel Santa Cruz de La Sierra and Montero. To Missions of Belgium, Colloradillo and Portachuelo, at this moment of grief. The whole work of Peniel feels solidarity in prayers and clamors the Lord of Glory.

            God is sovereign and everything has under your control. God bless all the work of Peniel with the consolation of the Holy Spirit.

                                                                    INDIA

            "Last month we went to Jammu (northern India) and the Andrapradesh to perform a missionary work. The trip was very fruitful. We met with the local missionaries and we conduct courses in their churches.

            The girls of the orphanage are doing wonders. They send greetings. The Church has faced great challenges, but God is moving in our favor. He is bringing new people to the Church. We did another meeting with the widows and we distributed food baskets for them. We ask for prayers, in particular, by two of them. They lost their homes due to the rains and need our help. Also we distribute books for children of Sunday School..."
