Gerry Gutierrez' Update
First
Epistle from Los Angeles California to
my family and friends in the covenant with Jesus. Arcadia, California. Jesus the innocent who had all the rights to be offended; because
of Love and compassion in mercy abundantly and sufficiently covered the debts
of his children and never remembered to hold theirs sins against them and took
the blame on his body.” What a Father and what a Son is
our Heavenly Father and his Son Jesus our everlasting Father. I need not to say anything anymore but try to be like my Heavenly
Father and his son Jesus now that I am a Father and have sons. It is requires
of me to be “perfect” like my heavenly father is perfect and it is also
required of me to be like Jesus who said, “Learn of me that I am meek and
humble of heart and you will find rest for your souls.” God the Father who so loved me has given me his son. Jesus the Son
died for me and has given me the gift of life in the Holy Spirit as Counselor,
Helper, Teacher, Guide, Comforter and reminder of all things good. I am
speechless and without excuse because I have been properly loved and mentored
to be not like any other but like my Father in Heaven to my children whom I owe
so much of God and Jesus in the spirit. “Our Father who are in Heaven, make your name holy in me by making
me like your Son Jesus by the power of your Holy Spirit today and the rest of
my life on earth for your honor and glory alone. Please help me to focus on my
family is my prayer dear Lord today. Grant me success before I die dear Lord. “Have
thy own way Lord, have thy own way.” “You are the potter and we are the clay.” “Yours
I stand like a bullock before the altar ready to plow or ready to be
sacrificed.”
Unusual Hunger followed by a great breakfast fixed by Lois. THE WHOLE DAY WAS A TASTE OF HEAVEN IN MY VIEW.
I am a wounded soldier but by God’s Grace I am first and foremost
a soldier of Jesus. I could never be happy in such a place because it is too
confortable with immaculate room like a hotel with people making my bed every
day and serving me three deliciously prepared meals every day served on fancy
tables with fancy menus and beautiful young people as waiters and waitresses.
It is a place designed to be Cosy and make me forget
my longing for heaven. While there is a sigh of relief among those who love me at solving
my problems, I am sorry to disappoint you my loved ones. In that Center I would
have everything I need for the flesh, but I would not have the bold head of my
Matthew to kiss neither would I have the daily hugs of my Lois and the many
kisses per day of my little Katherin and have the
weekly Kiss of my Benjie. A house is not a home if
the family is absent. As someone said, “what is heaven if Jesus is not in it?” I could
care less to be in heaven if I am not going to be with Jesus. On the other hand
even Hell would be heaven if Jesus is there with me.” If the grace we preach is
not grace worth living everyday, I do not want to live that kind of life. As nice as the Kensington place is, it belongs to those who by any
and all means are trying to stretch their lives on earth in the numbness of
comfort. Kensington is a regular “Cape Canaveral” a “launching pad of souls” to
their eternal destiny. They enter in wheelchairs but get out horizontal and not
on their own. I will get out of that place on my own before they close me in
with a contract. I will make the little room of Luke a Heaven of rest if the
Cotta’s are willing to expend their savings of grace with me. I would like us to get involved in some sort of competition of
“who would love and love first every day”. I am afraid without this we have no
testimony to self and to one another of the grace of God we say to have. BTW yesterday was a sunny beautiful day after a week of rain. If I do not send this letter, more likely I will take the path of
less resistance. Please pray that my Lois and Matt see and agree what by grace I
have come to see. I love my family with passion and I am confident that this is
the will of God and I ask you to agree with me in prayer. “Whenever two or
three are together in my name I am in their midst.” If we agree about anything
according to his will we are guaranteed to have the
answer to our prayer. From you brother and friend “a pilgrim in progress.”
