New Beginnings
As of April 21, 2024, 9:18pm, I am officially starting new things in my life. What matters to us, matters to God. And life was never the same again with Him.
It's Monday today and I wanted to make my life worthy for my Lord Jesus. Finally, I can do things without any limitations and standards from men. I now realized that for the past years was really hard for me and now that I am free, I am excited to soar high, expand my vision and manifest what God has entrusted me, not only from the 4 corners of the room but to a more diverse and exciting ministry Jesus has given us.
I no longer have to work with people who were just there. But with people whom God will let me know and come to my life. Yun yung ministry eh. The title will not only take hold of you, but will limit you to become the man of God whom God wants you to be. And I don't wanna take part of that. Because God is a limitless God.
I'm doing this not only for myself but for the body of Christ who wanted to enjoy their fellowship with the Lord. And i'm excited for all the things that God set forth for me. Maybe not in the pulpit, but in the pulpit of my life.
Always I take hold of His promise, THAT I DID NOT CHOOSE HIM, BUT HE CHOSE ME..

Face Value
Having a career isn't enough to succeed in life.
I am at a cafe now, preparing for another story to share about life. Sometimes, its so easy to have a lifestyle na bongga pero minsan nakakapagod din. Para bang gusto mo na lang humiga, o magpunta sa bundok para suminghot ng sariwang hangin. Anyways, going back to my purpose on this story I'm gonna share. These past few weeks that I've been very silent on my blog was because of the whirlwind of events that happened.
I am a government employee during weekdays, a son after 5pm, and a minister during weekends. And also a partime student if available lang. I am supposedly finishing my review for the board exam, however, I still did not start anything kahit ang magbasa ng 1st page di ko pa magawa. Mahirap isabay lahat lalo na't you're working as a supervisor at work, sa bahay and also sa ministry. You need to manage your time and manage all your resources to be able to provide and make use of the time you have and have enough cash for leisure. And now that I am still adjusting at all areas in my life, it becomes normal to me that my leisure is just playing mobile legends whenever I have "free" time.
Life is still hard for us who are breadwinners and are dreaming a lot of things to manifest for our family. With God, all things are possible. With God, you are successful. These are the words I knew from the word of God. And every time I look back, God has blessed me immeasurably and the messes I am now at, He'll save me again from this.
Not because you have enough, it is enough.
That's why you never stop working hard, dreaming and working harder. Never settle for less. And never forget to take good care of yourself.
2024! Is a year of breakthroughs for me. I praise God for every victory since january. Now I am planting another seed for my life and for others. This is the only way I can have success with me, if I honor God in every area of my life.

Chosen Day (Tuesday)
Started our first meeting last night, December 19, 2023.
After a long time of not having a cell group, its like I'm doing it for the first time. Pero, siyempre, iba talaga kapag si Lord ang nanguna at sinundan mo lang ang utos Niya.
Like the first time, you're anxious about what you'll gonna teach them, worrying that you'll blurt out words that are not pleasing to them. But just like what i've said, iba talaga kapag naryan si Lord kasama mo. All I can is that everything was smooth, and we just became so in love with the Lord more. And all the more grateful for everything that happened. Since we were all praying for events like this in our lives that we can have a great family of God.
Like in the book of Acts, where Apostle Paul reached out for the churches who were persecuted and tortured by the Pharisees and Sadducees, there will be people out there who were asking for them to be trained and be empowered. It's like they were just waiting to be discipled. At eto na nga yun. And I'm excited that these leaders whom God led me to where people who are very hungry and excited to be trained in the things of God. You can just feel the atmosphere without competition, no jealousy, no malicious spirit, no pride, just love, just forgiveness, just freedom in Christ.
"God chose us" this is in accordance to 1 Peter 2:9. "A holy nation".. a nation that God called to multiply, to rule and reign and to be the salt and light of this world. This is where we will start discipling our own life, our own bodies, our career, our own families, our own struggles before we deal with others.
Maybe the reason why the others have not move forward, is because they did not take care of their own life. Kaya ayun, kahit anong convince mo sa kanila, mahirap silang kausap. Puro dasal at kulang sa gawa. I've realized this year that because you are chosen, you also need to know what you need to choose. Choose people, choose your friends, choose your priorities and choose whom you wanted to be with for the rest of your life. Because not everyone who are there with you will be loyal to you until the end. Kaya, just don't expect much from people, instead pray and just look at them the way the Lord wants you to look at them. With that, you'll be not disappointed whenever things changes or when PEOPLE CHANGES.
Honoring God pleases Him all the more. Kaya the whole time we were having our orientation during our first meeting, sobrang gaan lang at sobrang saya lang namin. ALL GLORY TO GOD! Sus, tanang desire to enjoy the ministry were coming back to life. And I pray that this journey with them will be limitless and endless as we serve God and be used by Him until the day of His coming.

Finding what is your God-given gift.
This is what bugs me lately. Something I am wondering what could be God's gift to me that I need to invest myself with. I believe this is where the Lord led Joseph, Noah, Moses, Joshua, Daniel, and other biblical personalities that God used powerfully in His Kingdom.
Not because of my title, but because God ordained me to do so. But is it really God's plan for me to live a holy life. A life worth exemplary and a life that will continue to model others as well. I think, I am already anxious and becoming people pleaser after all. Instead of focusing on Christ, I am more focused on what others might tell me. And that I believe is not what it is to be in the Kingdom of God.
I don't know up to what extent I am going to move, as long as I know that I can still make things happen, gagawin at gagawin ko ang tama.
No matter what it takes.
I shouldn't be complacent and ignore the fact that I am already called by the Lord. Mahirap, because you will undergo a lot of discipline process as a man and align yourself to the ways of the Lord. Pero, I know for sure that this is the most exciting part of this life.--trusting God more than anyone and anything.
My emotions, my desires, all of my dreams.. has changed.
And now that I received this revelation of knowing what is my God-given gift, I pray that I'll be able to discover it immediately. Because all my life, I am searching for my identity, my destiny and my life. And this is where God is leading me now. And if taking my board exam was one of those key, i'll definitely devote myself reviewing starting tomorrow. I'll finish my bookkeeping assessment exam and finish my online courses. The job I have, though it was a stable job, it shouldn't limit me of who i am. I should focus in building the life that God has entrusted me. And one day, I know that I'll be sharing this story of my life. Not now, but sooner..
If getting a billion-dollar contract is easy for the Lord to give to somebody He trusted, then I'll make myself ready for it. Make me ready Lord.
Venue: Philomath

"All things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow. The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time."
--Updating myself today about the things that can be undone. Since I got only few days left before 2024.

Wellnessday (Wednesday)
Reflecting to everything that happened last November.
I thought October was a season of reset and November is the season of new beginnings. Instead of moving forward, November became a season of correction and learning and unlearning things. I've never expected such issues to come up and woallah! an open door to the devil trying to destroy what God has started in the beginning. For me, it was a refreshing November after all the season of rest during October. But it wasn't a season of rest after all. It became a season of yokes being exposed. And trusting God was the only way I've resorted since I, myself cannot control the situation anymore.
Indeed, "People changes when given authority." This is one of the example when Moses was given an instruction by the Lord and God led Him in raising leaders under him in order to govern a whole nation. God's favor was with Moses the whole time. The Holy Spirit moved the leader's lives, however, some of the appointed leaders were very agnostic and self-righteous that led them to their dealings. The same thing happened with me. Haist. It was hard. It was so painful. And it was very disappointing. People whom you trusted are also the people who will drag you down. And God made Himself true to me. Spiritual leadership should be understood by the people of God.
Imagine all the regrets, disappointments and complain I resorted why everything happened. This is the only time I even became more serious and wouldn't allow anyone to drag me down.
It's like you don't have a place you belong. But God opened doors and restored me. Humbling oneself before God, resulted me to reconnecting with my former leaders. And I was just thankful for what God has done.
What happened to the ministry, was also my accountability. I almost give up and wanted to just settle down and have a normal life. But I was not called to be normal. It's the Lord who called me and will always redeem me. No matter what challenges will come, He is at my side. He is in my heart. Yun lang, until now, single pa dinXD pero di naman issue to. Dami pa akong bills na aatupagin. IKAW NA BAHALA LORD.
I'm still young like david, still needs to learn like the young prophet jeremiah, and old enough to take the responsibility of a leader like daniel.. and God wanted leaders with a pure heart. HE IS HOLY. And even I surrender everything to Him, I'd still wait for Him.
*still at the office.. but was getting anxious of what happened this year. The more I felt giving up, the more I wanted to do more. Just as the result I'm seeing over my body as I trusted my gym coach on taking care of me. This is a race I will not give up.

Everything you experience now, whether good or bad will not define the destiny God has prepared and planned for your life. Something that no one can steal away from you. Kaya nga 'wag kang matatakot kung ano mang pag-subok ang kinakaharap mo. Kasi who knows nga, malapit ka na..
I'll be traveling back to mindanao today. Ngayong araw din mismo yung training namin sa Gensan. Pero, ayun nga, nasa bacolod pa rin ako for the last day of convention I've attended starting last October 18. 'di ganon kadali kapag nasa leadership position ka. Because you need to align everything to that purpose that God has called you for. Imagine, di ka pwedeng gumala or magpunta kahit san kapag linggo kasi nga, you're the ordained minister. Yung pahinga ko, kapahingahan sa presensya ng Panginoon.
Di naman sa nagrereklamo ako pero ito yung buhay ko since the day we started the ministry. It was a whirlwind of events that I myself didn't have enough time to reflect what is happening to my life. Until the day that I need to choose whether I obey God or not. I think, ito yung pinakachallenging part sa buhay ko.. Kasi, alam mo yung sagot pero gusto mong piliin ang ibang bagay. Hindi madali ang magsilbi sa Panginoon because challenges will be everywhere and you're expected to do what is right at the right place at the right time. Kaya nga kung iisipin, lahat ng mga anak ng Panginoon, kung totoo lamang, success will just be a product of their faith-walk relationship with God. The question is, why is it the more we serve God, the harder it becomes?
Well, ang totoo, matigas lang ulo mo.
Tama na ang pagsunod sa mga sariling kagustuhan para mabigyan mo ng pagkakataong makita ang move ng Lord. We were opted to trust and obey Him. Yun lang naman talaga sana. Siguro, matagal na akong **** di ko din alam. Wala akong naiisip na posibleng mangyari except sa kadahilanang baka wala na ako sa mundong ito. It is only by His grace that I am still here working, living and laughing about life and making things right.
Basta ano man ang mangyayari, kapag naexperience mo na si Lord, you will protect your relationship with Him. Sinubukan kong mahalin ang ibang bagay, pero ako lang ang napahamak. Ako lang din ang talo sa huli. Pero dahil pinili ko Siya, kahit ilang beses man ang luhang ibubuhos, may kapahingahan. May kabuohan. May paglago. And being here in this journey at Bacolod City now, I must say that these are just a prize of my obedience. Hindi naman alam ng lahat anong nangyayari sa buhay mo eh. They didn't even know the weight of everything you've been through. Kahit ano pa mang sabihin nila.
You need to fight the good fight and focus on the race.
Dami kong narerealize sa buhay habang andito ako sa ibang bayan. Grabe mag ispoil si Jesus. Grabe yung comfort at pagmamahal kahit anong nangyari sa akin. Kasi sabi ko nga, "HE WILL TAKE CARE OF ME", ayun lahat ng nangyayari sakin dito.. mafefeel mo talaga na naryan sya sa tabi mo. Pagbalik ko, I pray na maglelevel up kami. Not only the leadership, but the leaders will be more hardworking than the norm. I pray na yung blessing ng Lord will come to pass sa bawat buhay. At lahat ng bagay na gagawin ko, para lamang sa Kanya.

A New Start
Sabi ni Lord, "If anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation.. the old is GONE, the NEW has come. - 2 Corinthians 5:17". Kaya, why is it that I keep reminiscing about the past. Tapos na nga diba. Dapat hindi mo na iniinda ang lahat ng sakit, lahat ng masasayang alaala na hindi naman dapat.
Just be careful with your words. Because our words could create and destroy. Create good things, attract good things. But also could destroy, especially yourself. That's why God, thru Apostle Paul, has given us a powerful reminder of taming our tongue. And yeah, we could destroy ourselves and earn all the consequences one day.
Grace. It is only by the Grace of God, thru our Lord Jesus that we will not inherit any of the wicked things we've sown in the past. Buti na nga lang! wiw!
Going back, wala namang ugaling madaling baguhin. You need to discipline yourself and be consistent on it to be able to make it as your lifestyle. Because human as we are, our routines, ways of doing things are defined by the things we lived with. And the only way to change a bad habit is to take small steps daily. Yun lang unti-unti, kasi ang lalim na ng ugat, that embedded in our system for a long time, will cause a ripple effect in everything. Because changing one attitude, will start to change everything.
I've been through a lot this year and all I can say is that it is always glory to God. Because this was a product of my prayer, that I will live an honest, humble and successful life. Without anyone except God helping me. Kung irerecord ko lahat ng kabaliwan na ginawa ko, haist. Pero yung issue naman, binitawan mo na pero it keeps coming back again and again.

It's good to be back on track! Months ago I was struggling and suffering from the consequences of all of the messes I did. And I could really say that it was not easy at all. I only overcome those times because of the grace of God.
There were times that I wanted to give up and wanna sleep the whole day waiting for each trouble to pass and be gone. But it was not the answer you're waiting or asking at all. The answer to your problems is yourself. When you take a stand and focus your eyes on the Lord.
It's those times that I give up and surrender everything to God that everything has started to change.. all glory to God.
