Livin' only by Grace

hehe... when i started reading this book [ a post-birthday gift from aj... thanks by the way... ] medyo parang di ko siya ganun na nagustuhan... kasi medyo maigsi yung chapters tapos parang ha? yun na yun..? parang di masyadong naexplain yung first chapters.. nung medyo half-way done na ko.. hehe [at may lapis na kaya nakakapag-highlight na..hehehehe at sinisipag magpost]... medyo naappreciate ko tong chapters na to eh..hehehe read on na lang... ; )) sabi niya dito... "I learned that the deepest spiritual lessons are not learned by His letting us have our way in the end, but by His making us wait, bearing with us in love and patience until we are able honestly to pray what He taught His disciples to pray: Thy will be done. Acceptance of whatever that means is the great victory of faith that overcomes the world." hehe.. medyo di ako nagcocomment na sa book ko eh.. heheh ngayon lang medyo hindi..hehe another one... When obedience to God contradicts what I think will give me p...

Do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven —Luke 10:20 Jesus Christ is saying here, "Don’t rejoice in your successful service for Me, but rejoice because of your right relationship with Me." The trap you may fall into in Christian work is to rejoice in successful service— rejoicing in the fact that God has used you. Yet you will never be able to measure fully what God will do through you if you have a right-standing relationship with Jesus Christ. If you keep your relationship right with Him, then regardless of your circumstances or whoever you encounter each day, He will continue to pour "rivers of living water" through you ( John 7:38 ). And it is actually by His mercy that He does not let you know it. Once you have the right relationship with God through salvation and sanctification, remember that whatever your circumstances may be, you have been placed in them by God. And God uses th...

as i was about to have my devotion this morning... hehehe that's the title of the devotional.... we all know that God is with us... God fights FOR us... but are you familiar with God fighting against us..? God will fight against us if... we will give our affections to other gods.... [you know that it's not just a god made of wood... but other gods that's everywhere... you can worship that without you knowing that you're already worshiping a 'god'] if our own hearts wander away from God.. we can count on Him to fight against us if we become proud and self-assured, if reading God's Word and spending time in prayer seem like a waste of time, God will step in and deal with us... God fight against us... for our own good... He permits us to experience defeat so that we will listen to Him when He says, "Rend your heart, and not your garments; return to the LORD your God for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness" (Joel 2:13). ...

kanina i've been asking God what's happening... =) hehehehe.. and then whew! ang bilis lang sumagot ni Lord... John 3:30 He must increase... but I must decrease... =j hoooh Lord... sometimes we wonder [or have you ever wondered..] why we undergo certain things in our life... certain "failures" certain "mistakes..." certain "downfalls..." ... He allows those things to happen for a special reason... =) to prepare us for the things He wants us to do... for us to realize that we are really nothing... we can't do anything apart from His Grace... =j we should not think that we are good -- just because we've learned a lot.. and we are not yet being tried -- after all, we are still humans.. whatever it is that we've learned, we should not think that we can do it by our own.. it's still HIS GRACE... alone... =j and that's great... Lord, if You've allowed these things to happen for You to be magnified in my life.. then be it.. don...

what's great about God... =) many things.. =) and one of them is that when you desire.. you don't have to exert so much effort.. when you desire to do things that's glorifying His Name, He makes it happen! HE MAKES IT HAPPEN =) all you have to do is desire... =) when God called you, He knew your limitations... your weaknesses.. everything about you... and yet, He chose you... because when He called you, all He wants is your availability and obedience... then He can fulfill His plan through you.. =) not by might nor by power but by His Spirit..

Oh Lord.. may You have mercy on the gays... I don't want to see this world dominated by gays -- influencing /encouraging other people to homosexuality... I want to see guys lead because that's the reason why they are created.. and please.. don't let the enemy distort it LOrd... please.. let there be an intense disgust to homosexuality but of course, utmost compassion to them... Oh Lord.... another thought came in while they showed pictures of the result if you're gonna work abroad.. of course, you'...
