Hello Friends and Family,
We pray that you find yourselves doing well. The Estrada family is doing great. Today, I had a conversation with a brother and one of my best friends Carlos Isaziga. He told me a quote which I believe is a great place to start. Carlos told me "Luis...Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift, that's why they call it the present." Carlos, was actually quoting the turtle in "Kung Fu Panda." Well, wherever it's from, I believe as Christians this attitude will certainly help us out in our daily walk with Christ.
The last six months have been really trying for our ministry, church, and family. Rachel, told me the other day that she felt as if we were in an episode of "ER." There were fires to put out all around us with very little relief in site. Some of you know what I'm talking about and others don't. I don't want to get into it at this time. If you are interested please give me a call. Otherwise, I will take Carlos' advice. The past is in the past. And as God's word tells us, we must learn from the past.
Probably the only part of the quote that is questionable is the part of the future. As christians, we are certain of our future. The battle is done, the victory is won. We know where we are going.
I just received a phone call from Efrain Valverde asking me to cover him this evening in Bible class. He is not feeling well tonight. For those of you that don't know, Efrain has had a relapse with the cancer. Please keep him in your prayers.
I have added a photograph. This is a sample of what we are doing at Hialeah. Every Sunday we pass these out with the bulletin. We are trying to encourage our members to read their Bible's more. Rachel has taken many beautiful pictures like this one. She has been really blessed by God with this talent. She is a vital part of our ministry. Please keep us in your prayers.
