In Your Needs, Trust Him
This caught my attention: sow, reap and store away—all which required time, attention, effort and labor. Toils one must do to eat to be nourished and to survive.
Birds need not to do such. When they wake up every morning, they have to search for food for themselves. In one sense, they too had to labor and yet had to depend on what kind of food our Heavenly Father would provide.. even the where,…

Filled in the Secret Place
Filled in the Secret Place
My heart is at rest
My spirit is at peace
When I am at the secret place
Our secret place
It’s where You speak
And I listen to You
Through Your Spirit
And through Your Word
It’s where Your presence comforts

Your beauty and power
Grace, mercy and splendor

Change My Heart
Change my heart
When I am in peaceful waters
Or when I am drowning under the mighty waves.
Change my heart
When I am savoring Your blessings
Or when I am in want and need.
Change my heart
When You give me my heart’s desire
Or when I’m in a period of waiting.
Change my heart
When I am alone
Or when I have all other people’s love around me.
Change my heart
When I am filled by the Holy…

The Flood and Jesus
The Flood and Jesus
This hit me like an unexpected pillow smacked to my face while I was walking to work (I wanted to cry not because of the pain but because of the humility felt for such an undeserving revelation).
Decreation – to go back to the “creation state” (from Bible Project Podcast)What decreation: the flood
If one thinks about it, God showed us through the flood that destroying all humanity and making a…

One Honest Prayer from the Heart
One Honest Prayer from the Heart
Jeremiah 29: 13
“And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart”.
A promise that really touched my heart.
A promise that I’ve taken hold of especially at times when I knew I had nurtured the callousness of my heart.
This stubborn, stubborn heart that had swayed from Your path countless of times.
A heart that, despite its rebellious nature, cries for freedom and…

KNOWING, BRETHREN BELOVED, YOUR ELECTION OF GOD. - 1 Thessalonians 1:4
KNOWING, BRETHREN BELOVED, YOUR ELECTION OF GOD. – 1 Thessalonians 1:4
Many persons want to know their election before they look to Christ, but they cannot learn it thus; it is only to be discovered by “looking unto Jesus” (Heb. 12:2). If you desire to be sure of your own election, assure your heart before God by asking the following questions: Do you feel yourself to be lost, guilty sinner? Then go immediately to the cross of Christ and tell Jesus so. Tell Him…

Our Patient Father God
I was staring at our “babies” a few days ago when this truth was instilled in my heart: the great patience of our Father God.
My sister and I got these plants a few weeks back and had to learn how to take care of them (I didn’t want any plants initially since I’ve always thought I would end up neglecting and killing them 😅).
Anyways, after a few days of attending to their needs like watering…

God in control
When fear and doubt
Pain reigns throughout
Above it all
God in control.
In wealth, in lack
Devil ransacks
Find rest my soul
God in control.
Lovingly wise
Grace hears our cries
Our great console
God in control.
Good and constant
Never dormant
Justice extolled
God in control.
Soul trust in Him
When future’s grin
Knees down you fall
God in control.
Run to His arms
Tell Him your qualms
He’ll fill that…

Christ: self denial and dying to one’s self
Self denial and dying to one’s self..
I thought I had a different understanding of what self denial and dying to one self means..
To be like Christ, to die to one self is to accept the lordship of Father God in one’s life and to place an immense urgency to honor and obey whatever His will is without any regards to self and other people.. no ifs, no buts..
Dying to onself is to be like..

In the beginning of 2019, I have been praying for a job that will not just be a source of provision but a place where He will let me “sit beside quiet waters”.
I can vividly remember the day when God dropped me a date “March 17”. During that time I was asking God about the significance of the message I received and His reply was, “Trust Me and wait patiently.” March 17, 2019 came and nothing…

Talents and Stewardship. Cilia and Stirrup.
Talents and Stewardship. Cilia and Stirrup.
This morning, I was lingering on thoughts about the church being as a body and have always loved how the apostle Paul did the comparison a few times in his epistles. The church, with Christ being the head, is one body composed of many, many parts. I remembered the time that I was literally imagining the church having there are major parts like the heart, liver, skin, bones, spinal cord, and…

Be Still! Rejoice! He is God!
Be Still! Rejoice! He is God!
Yesterday, I was taken aback by a post in facebook. On the post was one of our church’s original songs entitled, “Purihin Pangalan Niya” (personal translation: Praise His Name) and who originally composed it. What surprised me was that it was composed by the youth of Hope Taclobanin Philippines as a thanksgiving song after these youth and their families where transferred to their new houses…

Thoughts and Prayers on Wuhan
Just recently, fear has come across the world with regards to the outbreak from the 2019 novel coronavirus or commonly known as the “Wuhan virus”. News, videos of stories, even rumours about this incident are all over the internet. Masks are flying off the shelves despite the higher than usual prices.
Don’t get me wrong. The moment we had a suspected case in our ward, wherein I was currently…

The Heart of the Father
The Heart of the Father
“Communication” or “the way we interact with someone” (this is done by talking, facial expressions, hand gestures, and in our generation today we do communications through Facebook, sending SMS, voice call and even video call). The way we communicate with someone determines how we value them.
Examples:
We can talk freely with our friends and laugh about funny and silly things.
When we talk to our…
