From the Pastor’s Desk
OW great is our God in His wondrous deeds in our midst! We thank Him for His granted victory in our pursuits to do His will, specifically in fulfilling His Great Commission. We give Him the glory for the triumphant start of our expanded Sunday School classes for young people last Sunday. All praises be to Him for the fruitfulness of our 7-Stage Discipleship endeavor as evidenced by last week’s graduation-promotion ceremonies. Likewise, we lift His name for the progress of our building construction, with the installation of a new transformer along our street. Furthermore, we honor Him for our new work in Singapore whose first worship service commences today. As we desire to be revived through healthy relationships, let us first submit to God for the strengthening of our fellowship with Him. We really are so blessed that we have the heavenly Father Who constantly reaches down to us in our unworthiness; we have the Saviour Who continuously invites us to come to Him despite our unfaithfulness; and we have the Holy Spirit Who ceaselessly seeks to restore us amidst our sinfulness. We must respond to God and to His compassion with humility and gratefulness. We should not waste His granted benefits for the enjoyment of a sweet relationship with Him. Let us grab all the opportunities which His Word, His will, and His work offer for us to experience His friendship. Let us begin now… while we are here in His sanctuary, longing to worship Him in spirit and in truth. Then, by His grace, let us continue nurturing our relationship with Him as we live for Him, reflecting His love in our dealings with others in our homes, schools, work places, and soulwinning sites.

“NAISIN KO SA PAKIKIPAGTIPAN SA IYO, AKING DIYOS” Beata B. Agustin
Nais ko laging makita ang kalooban Mo, aking Diyos… sa mata ng pananampalataya!!! …Iyan ang kalooban Mong matuwid na puno ng biyaya At nagbubukas sa diwa ko ayon sa katotohanan Mong mapagpalaya Para sa aking pamumuhay nang maligaya. Nais ko laging madama ang puso Mo … sa mapagmahal nitong pagtibok!!! …Iyan ang puso Mong mapagkalinga’t pag-ibig ang tinutumbok At nag-aalaga sa kaluluwa kong nadadaya ng hangaring maalabok Para sa aking katatagan sa pagharap sa mga pagsubok. Nais ko laging masilayan ang kabanalan Mo … sa malinaw na paningin!!! …Iyan ang kabanalan Mong maluwalhati sa Iyong pagiging maawain At nagpapaganda sa pag-uugali ko habang napapaayos ng panalangin Para sa aking pagsuko sa Iyo bilang isang buhay na hain. Nais ko laging marinig ang tinig Mo … sa gitna ng makamundong ingay!!! …Iyan ang tinig Mong mapagpayapa sa kaaliwan Mong taglay At nagpapahinahon sa isipan kong sa alalahani’y napapatangay Para sa aking kapanatagan nang sa piling Mo’y di mawalay. Nais ko laging matikman ang pagpapala Mo … sa panlasang makalangit!!! Iyan ang pagpapala Mong masaganang di nagkukulang kahit isang saglit At nagpapalakas sa kalusugan ko laban sa kasalanang kumakapit Para sa aking paglilingkod na may pagmamalasakit. Nais ko laging maamoy ang samyo Mo … sa bango ng Iyong kahabagan!!! Iyan ang samyo Mong mabisa sa halimuyak ng katapatan At nagpapasigla sa panawagan kong nabubugahan ng katamaran Para sa aking katungkulang gagampanan sa pagkilos ng Iyong kabutihan. Nais ko laging mapakinggan ang Salita Mo … sa liwanag ng Iyong turo!!! …Iyan ang Salita Mong maaasahan sa kabila ng panuntunang pabagu-bago At nagpapalago sa pagka-Kristyano ko sa katotohanan Mo Para sa aking pagsunod sa Iyo nang buong-buo.

Quotation Marks
All who wait upon the Lord shall rise higher and higher upon the mighty pinions of strong devotion, and with the unblinking eye of faith, into the regions of heavenly-mindedness, and shall approach nearer and nearer to God, the Sun of our spiritual day.” - John Angell James
Ayon sa Biblia, Iisa Lamang ang Daan Patungong Langit!
A
ng sabi ni Hesus, “Ako ang daan, ang katotohanan, at ang buhay: walang makapupunta sa Ama kundi sa pamamagitan ko.” Juan 14:6 Wala nang iba pang makapagliligtas sa iyo mula sa impierno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! (Roma 6:23)
“Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananam-palataya ka nang buong puso na Siya’y muling binuhay ng Diyos, ikaw ay maliligtas”. Roma 10:9 1. Aminin mo na ikaw ay isang makasalanan. Roma 3:10 2. Talikuran mo ang iyong mga kasalanan (magsisi). Gawa 17:30 3. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-10 4. Sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, tanggapin mo si Hesus sa iyong puso bilang iyong Tagapagligtas. Roma 10:13
MANALANGIN KA NG GANITO Panginoon, ako po ay isang makasalanan at nangangailangan ng kapatawaran. Nanampalataya po ako na nadanak ang dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Tinatalikuran ko na po ang aking mga kasalanan. Tinatanggap ko po si Kristo Hesus sa aking puso bilang aking Tagapagligtas. Amen. Kung tinanggap mo si Hesus bilang iyong Tagapagligtas, ito na ang simula ng iyong bagong buhay kay Kristo (Roma 8:1). Ngayon: 1. Basahin mo ang iyong Biblia araw-araw upang makilala pa ng lubusan si Kristo Hesus. 2. Makipag-usap ka sa Diyos sa panalangin araw-araw. 3. Manambahan ka sa isang simbahan na pinapangaral si Kristo at ang Biblia ang tanging pamantayan. 4. Ibahagi sa iba si Kristo Hesus.
