Kwento Ni Nanay / Anita Sasaki

Ang bilis nang mga araw. Panahon na nang mahal na araw. Panahon nang pag ninilaynilay. Pag-usapan natin ang mga bagay na madalas, nakapaglalayo sa atin sa Diyos.

PRIDE - Ito pala ang root cause ng madalas nating pagkakasala. Pride, ito ay ang lagi mong iniisip na magaling ka, ikaw lagi ang tama, sarili mo lang ang iniisip mo. Pride ang dahilan kung bakit marami tayong nakakaaway. Pride ang ayaw natin ibaba kaya hindi tayo nagpapatawad. Pride ang dahilan kung bakit gusto natin tayo ang bida.

Kapag tumaas na ang iyong pride, hindi mo namamalayan, hindi mo na kailangan ang Diyos dahil ang lahat ng magagandang nangyayari sayo ay iniisip mo dahil sa sarili mong sikap at galing. Sabi sa Bible, "God is opposed to the proud." Paano nga ba natin ma-correct ang ating pride? Simple lang pala, gayahin natin si Jesus, maging HUMBLE tayo. Kapag may promotion, naging successful tayo, sa lahat ng blessing, huwag natin itong ipasok sa ating ulo at isipin na ito ay galing lahat kay Diyos. But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, "God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble." Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and He will ee from you. - James 4:6-7

Marami ka pang matututunan kung mapapanood mo itong talk about PRIDE. Beware of Pride, be Humble: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfVM G5qT_Bo

PRIDE IS EGO WHICH MEANS EDGING GOD OUT. IF YOU DRINK POISON, YOU DIE. IF YOU HAVE ANGER, RESENTMENT, YOU ARE PUTTING POISON TO YOUR HEART. SO YOU DIE.

If you are very extremely angry, take your blood pressure and you are chemically high. So, it is literally hurting you. Not them. So, who is hurt? It’s you who make a mess of yourself. Transfiguration. It’s the Holy Spirit who will do the message. To share the word of my message. The change of heart and minds, habits, life style. Are we changing for the better? Nagbabago ba tayo? Kung tayo ay may sakit, o di kaya nahiwalay sa isang mahal sa buhay dahil sa kamatayan. If we are sick, separation due to death. Kakatokin tayo ni Lord thru sickness, death, bankruptcy. The pandemic should have changed us. What did we learn? LISTEN TO OUR LORD. PRAYERS PRAYERS IF WE ARE REALLY DOING IT RIGHT. DEEP PRAYER THAT CAN CHANGE YOU AND ME. ARE WE REALLY PRAYING? DASAL NG DASAL PAREHO PA RIN ANG ASAL. LISTEN = SILENCE WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT US. CONVERSATION IS TALKING & LISTENING. IN PRAYING WE SHOULD TALK AND LISTEN. THE BEST PRAYERS HAVE NO WORDS. KASI IT IS SAID IN TEARS. PHYSICAL PAIN. MY TEARS ARE MY OFFERINGS. DO WE HAVE A REGULAR TIME AND PLACE TO PRAY TO GOD? Sa aking pagkakasakit last year. It was 3 months before the year end. Grabe ang pain kong naranasan. Ipinaramdam ng DIYOS na walang kuwenta ang mabuhay na meron galit, puot sa puso. Tapos ang dahilan lamang ay ang material na mga bagay na hindi naman makapagliligtas nang ating kaluluwa. Hayaan na natin yan mga material na bagay na iyan lamang ang makapaghihiwalay sa atin sa Diyos. Iyan ang ginagamit ng ating kaaway upang tayo ay magkasira at mailayo sa ating Panginoon. Ika nga. “We may profit the world but lose our soul.“ NOW IT’S LENTEN SEASON. LET’S FAST AND PRAY. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE PRAY? REAL PRAYING. WE MAKE GOD BIGGER THAN OUR PROBLEMS, OUR SINS, OUR BLESSINGS. STAY ON. PERSEVERING PRAYERS. TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO PRAY. DAPAT FRUITFUL PRAYERS. PRAY FOR OTHERS, TOO. INTERCESSORY PRAYERS. PRAYERS ARE POWERFUL. PRAY FOR OUR ELECTION, OUR LEADERS, OUR COUNTRY, THE WHOLE WORLD. THAT PEACE AND LOVE WILL REIGN. PRAY TO THE GUARDIAN ANGELS OF OUR ENEMIES. PRAY FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. REMEMBER …. PRAYERS CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS! “HINDI MO KAILANGAN MAGING MAYAMAN O MATAAS NA PINAG-ARALAN UPANG MAKATULONG SA KAPWA MO PILIPINO.”
