Coming Soon….

Comfort Or The Cross

This is not a story about easy faith or comfortable answers.
It is a journey through pain, loss, temptation, and the quiet choices we make when relief is offered at the cost of truth.

This upcoming Series asks one hard question we rarely want to face:
When suffering presses in, will we choose Comfort, or will we choose The Cross?

If you have ever lived with pain, wrestled with faith, or wondered what you would give up just to make it stop, this is for you.

Comfort is fleeting. The Cross is real.

Stay Tuned….

      Thank you so much, Mandy 🤗 I had so many in mind when I wrote this, especially myself and my family. I Hope I do God well and that His Words, not mine, are received and understood by those who need it.

      This series was really hard to write because it was so personal, even more so than a few others. God really had a message of Faith, Trust, and Carrying the Cross for me and for others. It’s a hard one, but I pray it speaks where it’s needed most.

      Thank you so much for Reading and Commenting…

    I’ve heard that if we don’t carry our cross, we can’t cross the other side to go to Him. We can use the cross for a bridge. I’m looking forward to reading your stories.

      Amen Hazel… That’s a powerful way to put it. The cross is not just something we carry, it’s the way we follow Him and the bridge that leads us home.

      I’m grateful you’re walking this journey with me. 🙏

    Vielen Dank lieber Willie, ich freu mich auf diese Serie.

    Aber gleich vorweg, schon bei Zahnschmerzen möchte ich weg von dieser Welt.

    Schmerze jeder Art, lässt uns unser Ohnmacht und Hilflosigkeit spüren aber auch ein Bewusstsein dafür schaffen, das wir ohne andere Menschen nicht überleben können.

    Aber auch in allen Kulturen gab es immer ein Interesse daran, Schmerz auszuschalten, oft durch Rituale, Magie, Glauben, z.B. Fakire.

    Liebe Grüße und ein schönes Wochenende. 🌞

      Thank you for sharing your heart so honestly, my Dear Friend. 💙 Pain has a way of stripping us down and reminding us how much we need one another, and God. I know this feeling firsthand…

      This series comes from that very place, not easy answers, just truth, compassion, and the hope that even in suffering, we are not alone.

      I’m grateful you’re walking this with me.

      Blessings to you and wishing you comfort and peace this week.

      You are in my Prayers…

    Powerful question. In a world that pushes comfort and ease, choosing the Cross isn’t always easy — but it’s always worth it. Looking forward to this series and trusting God will use it to challenge and encourage many hearts. 🙏✝️

      Thank you so much and Thank you for Reading, Commenting and for your Support…Your words mean a lot to me, especially in this season. This has been a time marked by pain, sorrow, and anxiety, but in every moment I cried out to God, He answered. Those answers are the testimonies I continue to share…

      Through the healing process, God’s Grace and Mercy have allowed me to be open in the hope that others, too, will cry out and lean on Him, knowing they are deeply loved, seen, and never forsaken. I truly appreciate the encouragement.

    I read this and your Three Kings piece–this I’m looking forward to reading more of, and your Three Kings blog was fascinating with the insights you discovered. How amazing to be able to celebrate Three Kings Day, seeing it as a national celebration, but also one that joins all of us who love Jesus. I appreciate your words and the effort that it took to write it.

    There is a weight to this announcement that feels very real. You’re not presenting a theme as a slogan, but as something lived — something wrestled through. The way you frame the choice between comfort and the cross doesn’t feel abstract; it feels costly, and that gives it honesty.

    What stands out most is the quiet courage behind it. Writing from a place of personal pain is never easy, yet there is strength in choosing truth over relief. That tension is where faith deepens, and it’s clear this series comes from that ground.

    Staying tuned for sure, Brother! A difficult question demanding total surrender, trust and faith that choosing the way of the Cross will never be easy, but the rewards will be well worth the price in this life and our Father’s coming kingdom!💛🙏🙏🙏

      You’re absolutely right. The way of the Cross isn’t easy. It calls for full surrender, deep trust, and real faith. But that’s where true comfort is found, not in avoiding the Cross, but in embracing what Christ has already done for us through it.

    God bless you for writing about suffering, Willie. I’m praying for this message to be heard, and for people to be ministered to–through it. So many are suffering, and so many have no hope. I pray your book presents the God who suffers with us, who walks with us, and who pours out hope in us. Love you brother. God bless you and yours!

Hello,

I’m Willie

Hello and Welcome to my Website.
My name is William Torres, but my family and friends call me Willie. It is a pleasure to be here with you today, and I am excited to share my faith journey with you.

My journey has been amazing and fulfilling as a new Christian. I have seen God work in my life in ways I never could have imagined. I have grown closer to my faith and have seen Him work in my life and the lives of those around me. I am truly blessed to call myself a Christian, and I am excited to continue to grow in my faith.

I believe that I have come a long way in life. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a better man, husband to Frances Torres, and father to our children. I have strived to be a good friend and companion to those I have been fortunate to build relationships with. I have learned to appreciate the small moments of joy and fulfillment that come with every human connection.

I began writing stories that I believe were inspired by the Holy Spirit. These stories are my testimonies about the different trials I have gone through, and how the Lord has helped me to overcome them. Through this process, I’ve discovered that I can forgive those I once vowed to never forgive, and in turn, my relationships with them have been restored. They are now a huge blessing and a special part of my life.

I hope that through my writing I can be a source of encouragement to other people in their faith and relationship with the Lord. I pray that those who read my words will be blessed by the Lord and find strength and comfort in His Word.

To be honest, I have had to come to terms with the fact that I am not perfect, but it is in this place of acceptance that I am able to truly worship a God who is. His infinite love brings me joy, strength, and peace, and I am thankful for the privilege of being able to serve Him.

I have also started a Social Media Ministry on Facebook, which I invite you to visit here. Being Crazy For Christ is a platform where I share my journey of faith, and I am also on YouTube – Willie Torres Jr. and I am excited to see all that God will do through it.

This is my hope, and I’m so thankful for it. I’m thankful for the love of Jesus, and I’m thankful for the chance to grow in Him together with you.

You Are Loved

Willie Torres Jr.
