Novel & Cerita Philippians 1:27

Nang mas magpatuloy ang pagsimba nila ay nakatutok lang sila sa gospel word ng pari na nagsasabi ng kapatawaran, parang malaking impact iyon sa kanilang dalawa, na pinagdaanan ang lahat ng issues sa buhay. "Psalm 16:1 saids, Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge. The Good News tells that we must asked to god, communicate to him that you can always trust in the Lord, no matter what. His love will keep you safe and protected in times of turmoil," sabi pa ng pari na nakangiting tumingin sa kanilang dalawa. Kaya ngumiti na rin sila.

"Kung ang pamilya ko kayang sumugal do'n, pwes ako hindi." "Legal naman 'yon. At mas lalo pang lalago ang pera mo." "It's hard to keep track of money as well as the time inside the casino. I don't want to waste my money and time for that. Maraming nagugutom sa kalsada. Mas gusto ko na lang mag-donate." "Ikaw ba talaga 'yan, Tatiana?" "Hebrews 13:5. Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”"

sambit ni pastor. Maya maya pa ay nag simula na ang reading, “reading from the Apostle Paul, The first letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 13, verses 4 through 7: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Father, as and pledge themselves to each other, help them and bless them that their love may be pure, and their vows may be true. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.”

"Alam kong masakit ito sa dalawang pinsan ko. Masakit mawalan ng ina, anak at minamahal. Hindi ko alam kung ano'ng dapat na gawin para lang matulungan sila." "Simple lang naman ang magagawa mo. Ang damayan sila sa kanilang kapighatian, ang pagtibayin sila sa pamamagitan ng mga aral ng Dios na nasusulat sa Biblia. Philippians 4:6. At ang presensiya siyempre ng mga taong malalapit sa kanila," malungkot na saad ni Gretel sa kaibigan. Habang sinasabi niya iyon, ramdam niya ang tila bikig sa kanyang lalamunan.

I will trust you and honor you And I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully. Through the best and the worst, Through the difficult and the easy. Whatever may come I will always be there. As I have given you my hand to hold. So I will give you my life to keep. So help me God. Father Geron, stop and pause and add and continue to say; "According to the bible verse John 4:7-12 Dear, brothers and sisters. Let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is born of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God—for God is love.

Iyon ang huli kong sinabi sa kaniya bago ako tumalikod at maglalakad na sana paalis nang bigla niya muli akong tawagin. “Ate Aliyah!!!” “Bakit?” tanong koa nang malingon ulit siya. “Psalms 37: 24!” sigaw niya na kinakunot ng aking noo. Bible verse? “Though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.” salita niyang muli na galing sa bible verse na kaniyang sinabi. Hindi ako agad nakapag-react dahil sa prosesong ginawa ng aking utak, ngunit nang maunawaan ko iyon ay naramdaman ko na ang pagtulo ng isang butil ng luha sa aking pisngi.

Labis na kagalakan at pasasalamat ko sa Diyos dahil biniyayaan niya ako ng isang mala-anghel na nilalang na nagsisilbing liwanag sa madilim kong buhay. “My soul is glad because God is my savior,” bulong kong naipahayag ang salita ng Diyos: Luke 1:47. “Ayon pa nga sa sinabi sa bibliya: Galacia 6:9-10, kayaʼt huwag tayong mapagod sa paggawa ng mabuti sapagkat pagdating ng takdang panahon tayo ay aani kung hindi tayo susuko. Kaya nga, basta may pagkakataon ay gumawa tayo ng mabuti sa lahat ng tao, lalo na sa mga kapatid natin sa pananampalataya.” Tumango naman ako sa binanggit ni Naniel.

Ilang beses ko nang narinig na kinanta niya ang awiting iyon ng Casting Crowns; ganito pa rin talaga ang epekto sa akin. Unang beses ko itong narinig sa bible study na ginawa sa bahay ng pinsan kong si Belle. Inimbitahan niya ako na pumunta sa bahay nila. I cried and cried after hearing the gospel of the day. Nakatatak na sa isip ko ang verse na binanggit ng aming worship leader. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Again, there's always hope. Sometimes... Thoughts like what if I'm never able to run again? What if I tore another muscle and couldn't walk for the rest of my life? What if I couldn't feel or be myself anymore? What if I had to stop doing the things I enjoy? What if everything was to change from here on out? What if I end my life now? Those irrational ideas were raging through my mind. But then this verse appeared out of nowhere and spoke to me. "Through Christ, who empowers me, I can do all things." - 4:13 Philippians (NKJV)

(1 John 3:8) "Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord." (Hebrews 12:14) "But she who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives." (1 Timothy 5:6) "Useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself." (1 Timothy 6:5) "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit." (Titus 3:5)
