We should not CONFORM...

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)

Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.

FATHER’S DAY: A TRIBUTE

Image
T oday is Father’s Day. A day of cologne.  A day of hugs, new neckties, long-distance phone calls, and Hallmark cards. Today is my first Father’s Day without a father. For thirty-one years I had one. I had one of the best. But now he’s gone. He’s buried under an old oak tree in a west Texas cemetery. Even though he’s gone, his presence is very near ¾ especially today.             It seems strange that he isn’t here. I guess that’s because he was never gone. He was always close by. Always available. Always present. His words were nothing novel. His achievements, though admirable, were nothing extraordinary.             But his presence was.             Like a warm fireplace in a large house, he was a source of comfort. Like a sturdy porch swing or a big-branched elm in the backyard, he could always be found…a...

KAIBIGAN - Sila yung mga kapatid mo sa ibang nanay...

Image
KAIBIGAN ? Sila yung mga taong tatawanan ka pag nadapa ka, babatukan ka pag nagkamali ka, iinsultuhin ka pag di ka maganda pumorma. Sila yung mga taong wala nang ibang ginawa kundi utuin ka pag may pera o pagkain ka, papasok sa bahay nyo ng basta-basta, kakantyawan ka pag may crush ka, at higit sa lahat, papagalitan ka pag may ginawa kang hindi maganda. Hindi ba’t nakakatuwa? Kasi kahit paminsan minsan eh pabaya ka, meron pa ring gaya nila. Hindi ba’t nakakataba ng puso, kasi may mga taong kahit hindi ka man kadugo eh ang turing pa rin sa’yo ay parang parte ng kanilang pamilya? Pero bakit ganon? Bakit minsan eh hindi natin sila makita? Oh sabihin man nating nakikita natin sila, bakit hindi man lang natin sila magawang pasalamatan? Sabagay… Minsan kasi sa ibang tao tayo mas nakatingin. Minsan pa nga, pag nagkaroon tayo ng girlfriend o boyfriend, yung mga kaibigan pa natin yung nakakalimutan natin. Tapos akala natin kapag iniwan tayo ng mga syota natin eh katapusan na natin sa...

You're still on the PROCESS

Image
All of us we're still on the process of LEARNING and GROWING. And as we follow His ways and teachings, we discover that we... Lose to gain. Surrender to win. Die to live. Give to receive. Serve to reign. Scatter to reap. In weakness, we are made strong, In humility, we are lifted up. And in emptiness. we are made full. God is not finished with you yet, you're still a work on progress! Just let Him mold you to be one of the most beautiful pot ever. God Bless You!
