\nPlease pray against the spiritual attack our family consistently bears. Sometimes the burden feels so heavy to carry, but we know we must count it all joy and give our burdens to the Lord and leave them there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Peter 5:7 “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surprisingly, to be on social media is NOT our comfort zone. We prefer quiet and private. But, we push ourselves to share our lives with you to be a light for Jesus. To hopefully lead more to the cross of Calvary. To encourage the saints. Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Family has been offered several times to be filmed to have our own TV show and we have always turned it down. Fame and control from a TV show as to what we can or cannot say, has never been our goal. ONLY to lift up the Name Jesus and proclaim truths from His Word the Bible – for HE ALONE is worthy of praise and adoration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes misjudgement or envy coming from enemies, can cause the tears to freely fall from our eyes, but we are then reminded of these verses….II Corinthians 4:8-10 “We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some have asked why Nathan & Nurie do not have their own social media accounts. Because that is what THEY have chosen to do at this point in their lives and we highly respect that. They enjoy allowing you all a glimpse into their lives through our social media platforms and again- we highly respect and support that decision and we would ask each of you to do the same. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this world we have too much time on our hands. Time to hate or read hate, instead of truth. Time to back-bite. Time to criticize. Time to dishonor. Time to rebel against God and His ways. Time to be selfish. Time to forget to pray, to read our Bibles, go to church, and much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, may we encourage you to seek God FIRST – NOT the acceptance of this world. This world is hateful and you will NEVER receive acceptance from them. But, you can with God. Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”To you each of you, we love you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Because of Jesus, The Rodrigues Family\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
