Blessing and Benediction from Rev. Jeniffer Rodríguez Michel

by Rev. Jeniffer Rodríguez Michel

Time is not going faster as we would like to see
Time is not going slower as we would like to see
Time goes at it’s own pace, movement and balance
God constantly reminds us: There is time for everything

Let’s act when the time comes. Let’s speak when time comes
Lets not leave things for the wrong time or for the wrong place
Everything has its time to happen from our side, but mostly from God
Jesus continues reminding us: There is time for everything

The Spirit of action reaffirms: There is time for everything
Help us oh God to be patient in the world we live in
Our desperation will not lead us anywhere we want to go
Lord Jesus guide us to remain centered and focused at all times. Amen

El tiempo no pasa más rápido de lo que nos gustaría
El tiempo no pasa más lento de lo que nos gustaría
El tiempo va en su propio ritmo, movimiento y equilibrio
Dios nos recuerda constantemente: Hay tiempo para todo

Actuemos cuando llegue el momento. Hablemos cuando llegue el momento
No dejemos las cosas para el momento o lugar equivocado
Todo tiene su momento para transcurrir de nuestra parte y sobre todo de Dios
Jesús nos sigue recordando: Hay tiempo para todo

El Espíritu de acción reafirma: Hay tiempo para todo
Ayúdanos oh Dios, a ser pacientes en el mundo en que vivimos
Nuestra desesperación no nos llevará donde queremos llegar
Señor Jesús, guíanos para permanecer en el centro y enfoque en todo tiempo. Amén
