Gerry Gutierrez' Update
A Sunday meal for
you my friends on, “Nightclubs.” Who in his right mind will not admit in sincerity and confess with
delight to have loved a girl as the love of his life? I have loved a girl as a male, I
have loved a girl as a man and I have loved a girl after the example of Jesus.
I have learned to contemplate girls in amazement at their beauty
and grace, power and influence over men who seem to be unable to live without
them but difficult to live with them. I was warned at early age by my Greek Classics such as Socrates
who said, “Whether you marry a girl or remain single, in both cases you will
repent.” I took my chances and have not regrets. Some males at nightfall go to nightclubs in
search of females. Some good boys go on Sunday to the Light
club to find good girls. Nightclubs and light clubs are places where for sure you will find
bad little girls, some by profession and the others by confession. Some men are like two kind of hunters that, either they wait in advantage
by the water fountains knowing that thirst and need will drive the unsuspecting
“game” in front of their rifles to be shot down with cheap bullets. Other men are like hunters that use hunting dogs that with the help of others chase the
“game” from one end of the woods to the other end on the forest where they wait
with loaded guns for the unsuspecting “game” that is running away from the
danger of the world only to fall into greater danger. By the way, that method of hunting is illegal and unethical in
some states. There is too much advantage for the hunter over the “game”. At this time it is just proper to remind you a word from the
Lord, “The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous and his ears
attentive to his prayer.” How shall a man keep his life from danger? By
waiting and claiming in prayer the promises of God. “Wait for
the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” Psalm 27:14. Real men finds real women in real life and not necessarily in
nightclubs or light-clubs, but in the “Day clubs” of life as he waits in the Lord even in
sleep while the Lord painlessly take a rib from his body to place beside him a
women like Eve. Other times a real man finds a real woman as a wife in real life
by the harvest field like Ruth, or by the well as Rebecca or even among the
refugee camps of slavery like Esther or by hard work of many years like Rachel. Hunt without advantages, hunt legally, hunt at broad day light,
hunt if you must but a wife is a good thing and good things happen to those
that wait in the Lord. The mother of Jesus was a girl from the light club of God. I said to you today, “I am in awe, astonished and surprised by the
increasing knowledge of the perfectness, holiness and purity of God and yet he
stepped into the “nightclub” of my life where I was selling myself to the best
bet of ideas my youth, my vigor, my health and the best of me.” Jesus loved me at the worst stage of my life. Shall I doubt him who was never ashamed of me just because the
rejection of some men? No, No and No! Jesus was counted with the
transgressors as one of them for me, so I can be counted with Jesus in Heaven
as one with him. Alleluia!! Amen. What is left of me greets you in Jesus my friend. Gerry Gutierrez. PS. A personal note, my rehab is very slow and discouraging, but
my longing to resume fighting for the King and his kingdom is stronger that my
weaknesses. Pray for me as the Lord leads you because I no longer know what
specifics to ask you in prayers but the will of God and the strength to finish
my race for the glory of the name of Jesus who so loved us.
