Secured

You don't need to worry about what tomorrow holds; all you need to know is that God holds tomorrow.

Have faith. Your tomorrow is secured in His hands.

Giving

What you reap is what you sow. If you want to be happy, make others happy. If you want to have blessings, give to God and to others. The seed always have to come first.

Stressed? Nah.

When we feel stressed or depressed, we don't have to dwell on it. God puts everything on the right perspective.

How's Your Foundation?

Text: Luke 6:46-49

Introduction: During our school years, our school celebrated for what we called Foundation Day. It tells about when and how our school started. And you know what the amazing thing is? Our school is still standing! Just like our school, our spiritual life should also be built in foundations. But how is your foundation?

Background:  In the area of Palestine, the re were valleys and gullies that had been exposed by water from rain and storms. During heavy rain fall, it washes away everything on its path.

Exhortation:

In our life, we could have founded it in anything that brings us happiness or whatever satisfies us. The thing is, we often satisfy our earthly desires when we could have founded ourselves with: FAITH, WORD OF GOD and JESUS. According to our parable, there are two kinds of Christians.

1. FOOLISH - They are the ones who chose to destroy their life. v.49

Foolish people are the ones who may listen to sermon, attend activities, go to church, might have read the Bible but never live accordingly to it. In life, it is easier to go with the crowd. It takes less to maintain something with God and it's easier to show off. But a person that does not build his life on Jesus' words and not do it will never have a strong foundation. When storms come and as you reject a life with Jesus, you will fall down into an eternity separated from Him. This world is like sand. When we build our lives in whatever we want, we will sink on it. Being just a Christian isn't enough to stand up against the world, We will end up stressed, worried, driven by lust, angered broken and with a nonsense life, you will crumble.

2. WISE - They are the ones who build their life on strong foundation. v.46

But if you construct your life according to God's word, you'll never be disappointed. God will hold us up. Rely on Him. Being wise is doing and hearing and having faith. With that, we'll be able to withstand anything. Obedience won't ensure an easy life. But it will ensure that God is always our strong tower.

• Word of God. James 1:22
• Faith. Romans 10:17
• Jesus. Proverbs 3:5-6

Conclusion: When life is calm, our foundations doesn't seem to matter but when crises came, our foundations are tested. If we build our live on the basis of God's truth, we will be able to persevere. If our foundation is built on our worldly desires and own wisdom then we will fail when tested. 

Jesus is the only worthy foundation. And with a word to claim and a heart to obey and obeys, we can be assured that whatever happens God will always be there. (Psalm 46:1)

Salvation is by faith alone in Christ but obedience is important in our life to come. Now, how is your house's foundation built?

Exercise your faith. After all, nothing in God takes faith. Believe in it. Receive it by faith. Expect Him to manifest through you. Unless you put your faith in Him, you will never experience His amazing presence.

Really surprised, definitely blessed. I miss these guys.

The vastness of God’s love can’t be grasped by our human minds. It doesn’t come from head to heart but must be passed from the heart to the head. And in order to feel that, you must seek Him wholeheartedly.

1 of 365

We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that God has planned for us. He knows what’s best for us.

God works the night shift so don't spend another sleepless night overthinking and trying to figure out your issues in life. TRUST IN THE LORD. He is working that out. 

November nuisance

I've been so busy lately. Wala na nga akong time minsan para sa ibang bagay. This November eats my schedule pero feeling ko kain tulog lang ako. 

We've been preparing for our Anniversary and we're holding practices and rehearsal for the Children Ministry. 

I also had my emotional ups and downs that's why I felt so exhausted. Well, it us a part of serving God so I just shrugged things off and always try to put a smile in my face. Even fake smiles do the trick. 

November isn't ending yet. I may feel exhausted at times but God will be the joy of my heart. ;)

Birthday nito kanina. Di man lang nangimbita. Nakakaasar! LOLJK,

Siya yung tawa lang ng tawa. Masiyahin, maalalahanin at marunong makisakay. Yung tipo ng kaibigan na marunong dumamay. Naalala ko pa tuloy yung emo-emohan naming doodles nun. Naaalala ko kung paano kami nagkakasundo sa hilig ng kanta kahit pilit lang kami sa pagkantano gitara. Naalala ko kung paano kami mag-asaran sa lovelife ng bawat isa. Maumay sa ginusto naming size ng DQ at magwalkathon sa palibot ng school nila.

Nawala ko man yung frixion na binigay mo, hindi ka mawawala sa puso ko. LOL. Masyadong cheesy, pwe. Hahaha. Masaya ako't nanjan ka naman palagibfpr late night conversations. Wag kang magbabago. Keep up the faith.

Happy Birthday Pot. Makita lang kita masaganang kumakain at nagdiriwang ng iyong kaarawan. Kudos at graduate ka na. 600 more birthdays to come (tingnan natin kung maenjoy mo pa) and God bless you more!

Kudos Pot!

PS: di din kita iimbatahin next time. Dejoke. Namiss lang kita. See you soon! :3

Ice cream friends.

Mas masarap nga naman idaan ang problema sa pagkain ng ice cream. Lalo na pag kasama mo ang barkada.

Kulang man, sisiguraduhin ko na babawi yung 2 lang. No suicidal tendencies at all! Yeheyyy!

Tabing ilog memories.

Naalala ko lang yung mga panahon na parang dati wala kayong kamuwang-muwang. Yung mga panahon na kung makapagtampisaw kayo sa ilog ganon ganon na lang. Yung mas masaya pa kayo sa mga ibong humuhuni. Mga panahon na kumain at maglaro lang ang iyong inaatupag. Yung wala kayong iisipin, aalalahanin at poproblemahin kasi mga bata pa kayo. At tanawin lang ng ilog, tumatalon na ang puso mo.

Ngayon, nagkakailangan pa. Iba't ibang hilig, iba't ibang dahilan kung bakit masaya. Ang daming iniisip, baka ganiito baka ganyan. Tahimik, nahihiya. Tumatawa pero hindi na ganon kalakas. Hindi na ganon kasaya. Kanya-kanyang laro na.


May pagkakaiba man ay sa isang bagay lang kami nagkaisa: ang ilog pa rin ang sa amin ay nagpapaligaya. Tumatalon pa din ang puso namin dahil sa kanya.

Graduation goosebumps

Malapit na pala ang graduation. Kinda excited pero sangayon, hindi ko pa kasi siguro ganon karamdam. Ang dami pa kasing pagdadaanan.

Napasa ko naman yung Comprehensive exam (Thank God, really) at certified na gagraduate na ako. But before that, hahasain ko muna ang sarili ko sa pagrereview. May ipapasa pa kasi akong Qualifying exam parang preboard na namin.

Oh Gosh. Akala mo pag natapos at napasa mo na lahat ng requirements, diretsong martsa ka na, hindi pa pala.

Ganon siguro talaga. Bago ka umalis sa iyong kolehiyong nakasanayan at sumalang sa realidad ng buhay ay sasanayin ka muna. Hahasain. Hindi man maging perpekto pero atleast, may alam. May ibubuga. May laban.

Kasi pagkatapos nito hindi na biro ang buhay. Kailangan sa bawat suliraning kakaharapin may tapang ka naman para. resolbahin. Hindi ka na magiging lampa sa tunay na laban ng buhay.

Here we go again.

May mga bagay na sobrang paulit-ulit nakakasawa na lang. Na kapag nangyayari yun uli, parang wala na lang. Heto na naman tayo. Palagi na lang. Paulit-ulit na lang.

Pabalik balik na lang. Eto na nga yung pinagusapan kahapon hanggang sa susunod na linggo, ganito pa rin. Eh wala eh, ganon talaga eh. Imbis na abangan natin ang kinabukasan, ayaw natin kalimutan ang nakaraan. Mistulan tayong may mga stiff necks na lingon pa rin nang lingon. Sa bagay, minsan mahirap nga maman. Mahirap magpatawad na lang.

Pag lagi na lang ganito, nawawalan na nang epekto. Wala nang saysay. Wala nang impact.

Minsan nakakaumay na. Na gusto mk nang tumakbo. Gusto mo nang lumayo at mapagisa. Kahit na minsan gusto mo nang kasama perpo ganon talaga.


Ayoko na. Paikot ikot na lang. Pwede bang kahit minsan, huminto tayo at maging masaya naman? :(

At the end of the day, you’re still alone.

;(
