A Thanksgiving Day Prayer

Lord, so often times, as any other day
When we sit down to our meal and pray

We hurry along and make fast the blessing
Thanks, amen. Now please pass the dressing

We're slaves to the olfactory overload
We must rush our prayer before the food gets cold

But Lord, I'd like to take a few minute more
To really give thanks to what I'm thankful for

For my family, my health, a nice soft bed
My friends, my freedom, a roof over my head

I'm thankful right now to be surrounded by those
Whose lives touch me more than they'll ever possibly know

Thankful Lord, that You've blessed me beyond measure
Thankful that in my heart lives life's greatest treasure

That You, dear Jesus, reside in that place
And I'm ever so grateful for Your unending grace

So please, heavenly Father, bless this food You've provided
And bless each and every person invited

Amen!

Jesus El Camino la verdad y la Vida

Quiero tomar este momento de escritura pues e querido escribir pero pues la verdad siempre estoy bastante ocupada con mis hijos y mi esposo y mis cosas de vida diaria.Queria primeramente dar las Gracias Al Senor por la oportunidad que nos a dado a mi esposo y a mi a perteneces en la presencia de el en los momentos mas dificiles de nuestra vida juntos . Le doy la gracias a nuestro Dios por mi esposo David quien realmente a sido un esposo esepcional por casi 11 anos de matrimonio . No hay ninguna queja para mi familia ni para mi suegra ni mi suegro . Le doy gracias Al Senor por darnos fuerzas a seguir adelante juntos hasi como el nos a mandado, Luchamos juntos hasi como dise la cancion como soldados y aca esta la prueva de que NUESTRO CREADOR ESCUCHA las oraciones que nosotros hacemos sin descansar para salvacion de nuestros seres amados . No me canso de orar a mi Dios por nuestra familia Lejana y tambien aquellos que estan serca que todavia no han tomado la responsabilidad de entregar su corazon a Cristo como su salvador . Hermanos y amigo La victoria se a GANADO en el Nombre del Senor al mirar a mi esposo bautizarse este fin de semana a sido uno de los dias mas importantes de nuestras vidas despues de su asepamiento al Senor cono su su Salvador .

EN CRISTO HAY VICTORIA!!! <<<>

En Segundo quiero agardecer a mi familia quien estuvo presente y pues aunque mi cunado y mi hermana viven tan lejos llegaron para apoyar ami esposo . Mi madre tambien vino para hacerle saber que ella esta aca para nosotros siempre . Me da mucho gusto que mi esposo mire a una familia unida en este momento tan importante para el y de fe como deve decer . No con pleitos y rencores y hipocresia y odios . Si no mas bien una familia no perfecta pero luchando para sobrepasar sus indiferencia y buscando la guia del Senor para su Gloria ...

En tercero quiero agradecer a nuestro pastor Daniel pues el ha sido un hombre de gran fe y de comprencion hacia mi esposo . Se que el a Orado por mi esposo y mi familia de la misma forma que mi familia lo a echo para que la fe de mi esposo sea mas grande y para que a pesar de sus dificultades el se pudiera bautizar . Gracias Pastor por ser tan bueno y amoroso con mi familia . Deseguro el Senor ya tiene un lugar muy especial para usted en el cielo. es usted y su bella esposa Luisa un gran ejemplo para mi familia .

Hermanos mis palabras no pueden describir lo emocionados que mi esposo y yo estuvimos . Le pido al Senor por nuestra familia que todavia no conosen al Senor para que ellos tambien puedan experimentar sus bendiciones.... y se que unos ya asisten a la iglesia y pues sinceramente le pido al Senor que toque sus corazones para que ellos tambien puedan experimentar la Paz que solo Dios nos da.




Mateo 28:18-20

Jesús se acercó entonces a ellos y les dijo:
Se me ha dado toda autoridad en el cielo y en la tierra. Por tanto, vayan y hagan discípulos de todas las *naciones, bautizándolos en el nombre del Padre y del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo, enseñándoles a obedecer todo lo que les he mandado a ustedes. Y les aseguro que estaré con ustedes siempre, hasta el fin del mundo.

A VERY SPECIAL NIGHT

CDC quietly revises autism rates to 1% of US children

Recently the Center for Disease Control (CDC) reportedly revised the rates of autism for the United States and the numbers are alarming. In 2007, the reported numbers were 1 in 150. Today, those numbers have skyrocketed to 1 in 100, and some say the numbers are closer to 1 in 89. According to David Kirby, the data is due to be released any day now.

Corroboration of this number has been tough to find, with much circular logic, pointing to blog posts who point back to his blog. According to Lee Grossman, CEO for Autism Society of America, and quoted by Kirby, that number is correct.

When I tried to verify the numbers, the CDC still lists the 2007 statistics of 1 in 150 in their official report, the new report has not been released) but the numbers on the webpage have been modified to reflect "1 in 100 to 1 in 300 with an average of 1 in 150" for prevalence in autism. The last modification that was made to the page was September 25, 2009. When I checked the internet archives, for earlier cached versions of the page, it was odd that the data page was missing from the archive. But Google cache revealed the subtle refinement of the details. As of yesterday morning, the website was changed to reflect the new numbers. It is interesting that the modification occurred yesterday, Friday, the day traditionally known for burying news that the media doesn't publicize. I don't want to say there is a conspiracy, but why hide the data? Is the CDC trying to bury these numbers? Why isn't the media shouting this from the rooftops? Exactly how common does autism have to get in order to get the attention, research and funding for programs it needs?

According to the numbers David Kirby cites from a 2007 telephone interview of almost 82,000 children conducted by National Survey of Children's Health (NSCH), which is supported by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the US Department of Health and Human Services, your odds of being told you have a child with autism is a staggering 1 in 63. If that child is a boy, odds skyrocket to 1 in 38. That's 2.6% of all male children in the United States. Is this possible?

Further, the report goes on to state that parents told researchers that "60 per 10,000 children had autism at some point but not currently." My thought on this telephone survey is, were these children officially diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder, or is this parents who are finding quirky children and giving them the self-diagnosis du-jour? Of course, even accounting for that trend, the numbers are still incredibly high.

How much worse does it have to get? If 1 in 38 boys was born blind or with no legs, would we do something then? If 1 in 63 children was diagnosed with cancer, would we be moving heaven and earth to find out what is causing the epidemic? Would we be studying every avenue, leaving no stone unturned, simply on the word of a few? Or would we use all of science at our disposal, creating studies without exclusions, leaving out our biases and using every available tool that we have?

We don't know what causes these children to have autism. It is probably a complicated set of factors. But at what point do we start researching as though we really want to figure it out? Whether vaccinations are part of the puzzle or not, who knows? Can thousands of parents be wrong? It is just good science to actually explore the possibility. That is, if scientists really want to conduct science. To date, no study with real controls for vaccinations has been done. Is it that hard?

What does the CDC not want us to find out?

Cansado del camino, sediento de ti
un desierto he cruzado,
sin fuerzas he quedado,
vengo a ti.

Luché como soldado y a veces sufri
y aunque la lucha he ganado,
mi armadura he desgastado,
vengo a ti.

Cansado del camino, sediento de ti

Sumergeme!! en el rio de tu espiritu,
necesito refrescar este seco corazón,
sediento de ti. (x2)

CORAZON DE PIEDRA

Annette moreno really means so much to me since as a person when I started in the truth I needed to have strenth in many areas . Specially in the personal emocional area. When the Lord found David and me we had gone through a very difficult problem not between the both of us but together in our life. So I feel the Lord spoke to me via music and via Annette. This particular song I love because as human being we tend to have
"un corazon de piedra" In this song she descrives how we feel when we arent close to the Lord an we have difficulty being humble and bending to what the Lord wants us to do in our personal life or inour life period. I have been through many things in my life and I have had "Un corazon de piedra " at times. I feel bonding with the Lord has made me realize how wrong I was and how I ned to make the changes if I wanna live a happier life. Yes to be able to make a change we have to first recognize we arent perfect and we have made mistakes and we must want the change .I hope this osng can be a blessing in your life as it has been to me in mine.




"Corazon de Piedra "


No quiero pensar, en lo que fue ayer,

Porque ayer lloré como una loca y tan

duro me enoje así mismo fué me encerré me

puse a pensar en mil errores que

tengo que cambiar.

Que lástima que tienes que escojer,

si quieres o no quieres las emociones.

Sin querer te invaden el alma

y tu corazón todo te demanda.

Quédate como un paralizado
sin mover un pie,

sin mover la mano
te vas a quebrar si te congelas.

Eso es lo que espera
un corazón un corazón de piedra.

No siempre es fácil buscar la salida,

como un laberinto
no los pintan los temores de la vida.

No tengas miedo de

fallar en la vida mira hacia arriba

y sentirás tu protección divina.
