Believe.

Believing.. For me, is very powerful. You can't do anything without believing. Some people doesn't really know what "believing" means. But for me, believing is one thing I can't live without. I've been through life's ups and downs, but I believed that I can make it through, not by myself but with the help of the one and only God. One of the happiest day of my life is when I came across with a girl 5 years ago.. whom I met in a virtual world.. a world where only few people know of. A world where people all around the world can meet.. a world where my love story began. One day, in our virtual world, I saw a girl.. sitting in the corner, watching people kill each other.. I went in and said "Hi" , she replied.. I met her, a girl named Angel in game.. which I never thought to be my "kababayan", and I guess it can't be helped, we fell in love... the sad thing is, even though we're "kababayan" she's 8 hours away from me.. and the only way for us to talk is thru Friendster.. for 11 months, we've endured that.. without seeing each other, without hearing each other's voices.. it's tough.. and then it came, we broke up.. I never knew what's the real reason about us breaking up.. but I respect her decision, we broke up.. And then I began to rebel... not sure why, but I felt that there's no one else in this world that can love me or WILL love me for that matter.. I went all-out... got into trouble a lotta times.. argued a lot with my parents.. then a year has passed, I finally moved on.. and decided to straighten my life.. I became closer to God, dedicated my life to serve God. said my sorries.. and learned to forgive and forget.. and just decided to "look" for another girl, but the feeling still remains.. I really can't tell myself why.. I've met some girls that could make me happy, but still, I'm looking, longing for that someone.. that's the someone I fell in love with in our "Virtual world" .. Still, I wait... every now and then, when she's online, I kept on reading her status message.. kept on sitting, waiting, wishing.. BELIEVING that someday, somehow.. she'll notice me. After 2-3 years.. I saw her online.. on that boring day.. I PMed her.. said "Hi" .. Then it all began.. said what's on my mind.. I never thought she'd listen.. and accept me.. again.. and now, we're back.. together.. I never thought a girl like her, would love a guy like me.. Thank you, Waifu.. for everything. I love you.

Word for you, today.

‘…KEEP AWAY FROM ANYTHING THAT MIGHT TAKE GOD’S PLACE…’

1 JOHN 5:21 NLT

There are some pretty extreme stories in the Old Testament that leave us scratching our head and thinking, ‘What..?’ Like when the Israelites started putting down the food God miraculously provided. ‘Then the LORD sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died’ (Numbers 21:6 NIV). Heavy scenes! Not surprisingly, the people repented and begged God to remove the snakes. Then something weirder happened - God told Moses to make a bronze snake sculpture, and said whoever looked at it would be healed - and they were. It was a bizarre sequence of events. But there’s more… For centuries the people preserved, protected and polished this bronze snake, dragging it with them everywhere, until they ended up worshipping it. Something that had once been an answer to prayer became an idol. The Bible describes how eventually a King called Hezekiah ‘…broke into pieces the bronze snake Moses had made, for…the Israelites had been burning incense to it…’ (2 Kings 18:4 NIV).
Think it can’t happen? John says, ‘…keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts.’ Anything or anybody can become an idol; your football team, your favorite band, your fashionable wardrobe, your fancy new mobile… Don’t get the wrong idea; there’s nothing wrong with enjoying all this stuff. It’s only when wrong stuff begins to take God’s place!
Jesus said, ‘Your heart will always be where your treasure is’ (Luke 12:34 CEV). Jesus deserves ‘…first place in everything’ (Colossians 1:18 NAS) – without exception. When He’s truly at the centre of your life everything else is just icing on the cake.

1 Cor 15- 16, Matt 1:1-17, Ps 103:13- 22, Pr 10: 14

Saviour King

And now the weak say I have strength

By the spirit of power that raised Christ from the dead

And now the poor stand and confess

That my portion is Him and I'm more than blessed

Let now our hearts burn with a flame

A fire consuming all for Your Son's holy name

And with the heavens we declare

You are our King

We love You Lord, we worship You

You are our God, You alone are good

Let now Your church shine as the bride

That You saw in your heart as You offered up Your life

Let now the lost be welcomed home

By the saved and redeemed those adopted as Your own

You asked your Son to carry this

The heavy cross our weight of sin

I love You Lord, I worship You

Hope which was lost, now stands renewed

I give my life to honor this

The love of Christ, the Savior King.

People get ready, Jesus is coming!

Lord Im ready now

Im waiting for Your triumphant return

Youre coming so soon This world has nothing for me

I find my peace and joy solely in You Only in You

I want the world to see that Youre alive and living well in me

Let me be a part of the harvest For the days are few

Hes coming soon

There will be a day

When we will be divided right and left

For those who know Him

And those who do not know

Those who know Him well

Will meet Him in the air

Hallelujah God is with us

Those who do not know

They will hear "Depart, I knew you not"

For my friends you see

There will be a day when well be counted

So know Him well, know Him well

People get ready Jesus is comin

Soon well be going home

People get ready Jesus is coming

To take from the world His own

Good news to all!

Good news, but with a fair warning!

This parable stirkes the necessary balance. It's true that the door is open to all.. but when they come they must bring a life which seeks to fit the love which has been given to them. Grace is not only a gift it is a grave responsibility. A man cannot go on living the life he lived before he met Jesus Christ. he must be clothed in a new purity and a new holiness and a new goodness. The door is open, but the door is no open for the sinner to come and remain a sinner, but for the sinner to come and become a saint.

My Savior, My God

I am not skilled to understand

What God has willed what God has planned

I only know at His right hand

Stands one who is my Savior

I take Him at His word and deed

Christ died to save me this I read

And in my heart I find a need

Of Him to be my Savior

That He would leave His place on high

And come for sinful man to die

You count it strange so once did I

Before I knew my Savior

Yes living dying let me bring

My strength, my solace from this spring

That He who lives to be my king

Once died to be my Savior

My Savior loves my Savior lives

My Savior's always there for me

My God He was, my God He is,

My God He's always gonna be...

The Reason For The Season

Yes, it's December.. my favorite month of the year. What is it in this "December" and what's so special about it? Oh I know.. because it's Christmas!! but some people really don't know what's in this "Christmas" .. well, for those who don't know "Christmas" . . . I'll share a bit.. =)
In John 3:16, stated the gratest promise God had ever made.. and since that day, I thank God for Jesus Christ.. If it wasn't for Him, I wouldn't be writing this one now.. I could've died from my sins. I just wanna share how happy I am meeting Jesus... I'm thanking Him everyday, every minute, every second of my life..
Even though we're not that rich here on earth.. But I'm 10000000% sure... great is my reward when the time comes.. ^___^. Being a Christian simply doesn't rely on believing that there's a God.. it's the FAITH that you believed that He created you, He designed you.. YOU'RE NO ACCIDENT--GOD MADE YOU AND HE LOVES YOU! It's not about religion too, it's about a RELATIONSHIP! Ever cried out into the void and waited for something or someone to help make sense of it all? A lot of people have but didn't find much of anything except silence. The void won't give us answers, but there is Someone who can fill your every need, bring hope to desperation and give purpose to your life. That Someone is God. He's been wanting a relationship with you since before you were born. Now that's love! There are plenty of skeptics out there who will come up with excuse after excuse of why they won't give God a chance. But if you've never had a real encounter with the compassionate, powerful, loving Creator of the universe, what's to lose except hope, purpose and knowing what happens after this life? This will be the most important relationship you ever start... So how do you have a relationship with God? The idea of that might seem impossible. But it is possible with God's Son, Jesus. You've probably heard of Jesus before. Maybe you've thought of Him as a religious teacher or a really good man who lived a long time ago. he is all of those things, but He's also the son of God. It's important that you know Him. Your whole eternity depends on it. But how do you meet Jesus? And you might be wondering "Would He even want to meet me?" Well, the answer is yes. Jesus does want to know you--personally. He wants to be your friend, savior, mentor and constant companion. But Jesus won't force Himself into your life. Instead, He's waiting for you to invite Him in. Jesus wants a relationship with you. but He's not going to force it. The decision is up to you. You can accept what Jesus has done for you, or you can reject it. You can put your trust in Jesus, or you can trust some other plan. You can meet Jesus, or turn away. There is a day coming when time shall come to and end and all people who don't know Jesus will stand before God in judgment. If you don't accept Jesus, you will stand alone before God. You'll have to bear the consequences, which the Bible tells us involves eternity in hell, forever separated from God. (See Revelation 20:11-12). You may think that you're not ready to make a decision about Jesus, or that it's no big deal and you can choose later. But not choosing is the same as rejecting. So before you put off deciding, take some time to really think about it. But when you do accept Jesus, it's a different story. Jesus is sitting by God's side right now as your representative, sticking up for you because you know Him. You won't have to bear the consequences of your sin because Jesus already has. One day you will be welcomed into heaven and spend eternity with God. (See Romans 8:33-34).... Christmas.... It's Jesus' birth.. it's OUR savior's birth! the Reason for the season!! I hope you enjoyed reading... Merry Christmas to all...
