A few days before our wedding!





Most of people that see us always tell us: “you guys look so calm for a couple that is getting married next week!”

God has been so good to us, that he is giving us total peace and enjoyment through this time of preparation for the wedding. Many of you may not know, but because of our ministry we travel quite a bit. Since the second week of November I and Mayerlin have been traveling. I was in Ecuador for 9 days, then stop at in Lima for less than 2 days, out of those days I only saw Mayerlin for 4 hrs. because she was in Iquitos for almost 10 days. Then I flew to Iquitos for 2 nights and just got back to Lima today ( less than a week before our religious wedding, and less than 2 days for our civil wedding!) 

Right before our travels, Mayerlin looked at me and said: “Honey, it is awesome that God is confirming and opening the doors for our wedding, but we are CRAZY!, we will be traveling and won’t see each other for a couple weeks, then we will met again less than a week before we get marry… I think I will be giving birth to our first child on the plane!”… We laugh so hard.

The reason why I shared this with you is because the Bible says: “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” (Proverbs 10:22). The word Sorrow in its original literally means “painful effort, or work with pain”.  We have learned what it means to enjoy God´s blessings, to enjoy the time of preparation for our new amazing adventure with God. We understand God´s blessing make rich and does not add painful work with it! 

Marriage is God´s idea, He created from the very begging for us. So He knows what we need and most importantly HE has what we need, HE IS what we need, whatever this might be. We are resting in His promises, we are resting in Him, because we know who He is, we have tasted His loving kindness and mercy. 

Once again, there is nothing better than be on God´s timing and God´s will! It truly brings richness, joy and fulfillment!

Thank you for everyone that have send us a love offering for our wedding! 
God is providing our needs and He has chosen you to do so, thank you!
