PERSONAL REFLECTION


 For your personal reflection this Lenten Season I brought to life this quotation taken from the Soul-Mate.
     
"It’s not what happens in life that determines your circumstances and where you are now. Bad things happen to all of us. What matters is the actions you take - blaming others for your misfortunes, will keep you in misery. Be responsible for your life; think how to change the situation to benefit you. It’s the first step to climbing out of that hole into a much brighter future" 

The first sentence from this quotation says, "It is not what happens in life that determines your circumstances and where are you now."  I totally agree with this, and yes all sort of bad things happens to us but what is important as the Soul-mate says is the action you take that will determine where you are at right now.

Blaming others for our misfortunes  is not the right thing to do and keeping that in your heart for a longer period of time will leads to further misery.


Yes, someone might hurt us, may cause us to stumble and fall or put us into a deep hole but it is our course of action that will change the situation.


We are responsible for our own life and no one cares so much about you except you. Think on how to change your situation to benefit you.


God gave us courage and determination, faith and strength as our weapons against all odds. Instead of blaming others use these weapons and your situation for your personal advantage.


God Bless!

COMPLETE SET OF FEET

Our feet works harder than what we think of. It brings us to lovely places we never been to. The feet carry our body weight all day out all day in. Though tired but never complained.   I was reminded of the song "Foot Prints On The Sands." Where most of the time the songwriter always noticed that there are two sets of footprints on the sand. Suddenly, the lowest point of his time came, at his amazement, there were only one set of footprints on the sands. He complained, because he thought God leave him. A voice from heaven was heard, "My son I never leave you. Yes, there was only one set of footprints on the sand the reason for that is that I carry you." This true to life story made me think that the complete set of feet is not one but two and we must always think this way.

"SALUBONG" - SEMANA SANTA 2019

I WAS RAISED AS ROMAN CATHOLIC BY MY PARENTS. WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS CONVERTED TO BAPTIST. THEN MY JOURNEY AS A BIBLE BELIEVER AND MY CURIOSITY TO KNOW RELIGION BECOMES STRONGER.  I FOUND MYSELF STUDYING THE BIBLE IN BETHANY BAPTIST BIBLE COLLEGE IN DIAN ST. MAKATI CITY. THERE, I FINISHED MY BASIC BIBLE COURSE. THEN I PURSUE MY BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY DEGREE IN CENTRAL BIBLE COLLEGE. I ALSO TOOK SPECIAL COURSES IN PRESBYTERIAN THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY WHERE I FINISH MY SPECIAL COURSE IN THEOLOGY. I HEARD ABOUT "SALUBONG" DURING SEMANA SANTA, AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, SEEN THIS DURING MY CHILDHOOD BUT MY MEMORIES HAS BEEN ERASED BY SO MANY NEW INPUTS ENTERED TO MY BRAIN. FROM A REFORMED CATHOLIC VIEW AND FROM WHAT I WITNESSED THIS MORNING, LET ME TELL YOU THE STORY OF THE "SALUBONG".  THE WHOLE CHRISTIANITY WAS SADDENED BY THE NEWS OVER THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST THROUGH CRUCIFIXION MUCH MORE MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS BEAR THE PAIN. ...
