God's amazing love..






There is a story in the bible that tells about a woman being chased by the crowd. They dragged the woman to Jesus alleging that said woman committed adultery. They suggested that as a punishment, the woman must be stoned to death. But Jesus said to the crowd: "those who think to themselves that they did not commit any sin must cast the first stone...then nobody tried to throw the first stone, rather started leaving....

All of us are sinners...It is only God's amazing love that we were able to survive in this world. If the Lord will say... it is now your end and you will die today...we can do nothing...If we are still alive, then still He has a wonderful plan for us and still had a purpose...

Because of our sins, he was crucified. Instead for us to suffer due to our iniquities, he sacrificed himself. His amazing love saved us...Now, the questions is...do we want the Lord to suffer again on that cross? then why we are still committing the same sin that the Lord had already redeemed by way of dying on that cross...

It is time for us to repent and be used by God for His glory and purpose...

Because of our Creator's love....

We may ask, what will happen to the world if God doesn't love us...It has been written in the bible that you may hear rumors of wars and experience strong earthquakes all over the world..., however this is not yet the end of the world..it is only the beginning of pains...and even compared to a pregnant woman..the labor pains...

Where we can get our help? Even strong and mighty nations will fall...Only God's love can help us....because of his tremendous love to us..he may spare us from calamity...

pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...pray...

If tragedy may happen be sure to know the message behind...

Life is not always fair. The best golf drives of your life sometimes go to the water hazard... In every tragedy, there is always a message behind...


There is always a cause and effect...but whatever it may be...our duty is to offer help...we need also to pray...




Pray not for things but for wisdom and courage to face life realities and challenge....





God and the Universe...the universe and space both known and unknown, defy man's imagination. God's power both seen and unseen, sustain man's faith...

Ultimate preparation...


     We might be asking ourselves why there is always an end of everything. All of us will surely die. That is the very truth that we can never hide nor escape. The causes of our death soon will be different. Others will meet a tragic death, like accident, others may be due to their illnesses, some by the recklessness of others, some also by the greediness of other people and others by fortuitous event.

     No matter what the causes of our death will be, we need to prepare. Preparation is not merely on the physical preparation but more than what you think.

    Imagine yourself you were invited to attend a funeral:
As you park your car outside the Church or other common venue, you observe there are many people outside. When you enter, you see some of your friends and relatives. You walk directly to the coffin and you are so surprised when you look inside the coffin you see yourself inside. The receptionist handed you a ceremony program. As you gaze the program, you see that there are five people who were assigned to talk about your life when you were still alive. First is your best friend, second, your officemate, third, one of your relatives, fourth, your wife or your husband and fifth, one of the members of the church you were attending.
     Now, the question is, what do you want them to talk about?

    As early as now, you need to live in accordance with what you want them to talk about your life. It depends on you. There is a joke that says: “don’t worry, the number of people who will attend your funeral is depending upon the weather on that day…

Understand your function!

Man has become an expert at understanding how plants and animals function. We crossbreed animals to create a more significant one. We also graft stock from one tree to another to develop more  compact trees. We called it invention, innovation or whatsoever. But we are deficient in  our understanding and application of how we are design to function. We even neglect what its impact to the environment. Due to man' creativity, our mother Earth is the recipient of all our irresponsible actions.

We need to know how our body function. The desire to steal or covet is prompted by what we see with our physical eyes, and our sexual desires are provoked by the physical wants of our body. We are tempted to trait people like products to be manipulated instead of images of Christ to be cherished and honored. 

In the same manner, improvement or development is not wrong per se. What is wrong is when we still pursue it even we knew already that it can cause destruction to the environment. We are blinded by our greedy desires to own all the material things in life.

God loves us so much that He created the earth for us to live and enjoy and not to destroy.

"STRESS"

I am bogged down by expectations at work and responsibilities at home. 

God said, don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need through prayer and thank Him for all He has done. God's peace is far more wonderful than the human mind can comprehend.

Psalm 46:10
                      Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

You cannot solve your problem just by worrying. Pray...pray... pray... commune with God. There is no problem so big.... we have a big God.... but don't just pray because you have a problem... pray because you wanted to be with God...experience His love...

God's love

Sometimes we don't feel loved. The question is does God really love us?

For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Because of great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:4.

God loves us so much that He even sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. The question is, are we worthy of that sacrifice? If you happen to view the movie "Most", you will understand how God opted to sacrifice His Son for the sake of mankind. It is a story of a bridge-master who opted to pull down the switch even if by doing so, his son will die just to save the people in the train.  

God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

Now that God saved us, what is your responsibility? When we die it is not a question because it is our destiny, the question is why we are still alive?

For God so loved the World

John 3:17 - For God did not send His Son into the World to condemn the World, but to save the world through Him.
God is talking about the people in the World, that whoever believes in Him is not condemned.

I would like to focus my topic on the physical World. We need to care for the environment. 

Due to our own destructive actions, our world now is facing danger! Just only the beginning...
