December 30, 2015

This day, will go to the provinces to attend a funeral of a cousin, who died recently.

In truth, her life is but an extension already coming from God.

Her condition should have claimed her several years ago.

But God willed her to go recently, to rest in peace.

Meditating on death.

We will all die.

This is inevitable.

All of us one day will meet our end.

We must be prepared everyday to die.

When we die, we cannot take anything from this world to our final destination.

Nothing that we owned or accumulated can be brought to where we will finally be in the end.

In the past, I have met a person who died, but was given the chance to come to life again.

She died in the hospital due to a critical medical condition.

During her death, she saw herself in a court, in front of a judge, unlike any other here on earth.

She was asked this question: WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME?

Then, at an instance, she had her whole life being reviewed by her.

She had realized this: she has not done anything for God.

She pleaded for mercy, and gave the promise that if she is allowed to go back, she will correct her ways and do service for Him.

Then, she came back alive on the hospital......

She was revived from death.

Nowadays, she continue to help people in accordance to her capacity to do so, within her profession, as service to God.

I am lucky that I met this person and she shared her story.

May it also serve unto us a warning of what lies after death.

That we really need to prepare for our final destination.

That everyday, we need to do the will of God, for the good, for the love of Him.

When we die, we will be asked the question: WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME?

Hope that when our time comes, we can answer this way: I have done what I can God, for the love of You.

God have mercy.

God bless.

MATTHEW 25:40

Matthew 25:40

"The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'

MEDITATION:

REMEMBERING THAT MAN IS CREATED IN THE IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF GOD, AND GOD BESTOWED ON EVERY HUMAN BEING THE INHERENT DIGNITY AS CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF THE CREATOR.

THUS, WHEN WE DO EVIL AND WICKEDNESS TO ANY HUMAN BEING, ESPECIALLY THE POOR AND THE NEEDY, WE ARE DOING IT TO GOD, WHOSE IMAGE IS IMPRINTED ON EVERY HUMAN BEING.

THUS, INEVITABLY, WHEN WE DO ANY FORM OF EVIL AND WICKEDNESS TO HUMAN BEINGS, ESPECIALLY TO THE LEAST AMONG HUMANITY, WE ARE ALSO DOING THESE THINGS TO THE ONE WHO CREATED THAT HUMAN BEING.

THUS, THE GOLDEN RULE: DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WANT TO DO UNTO YOU, AND DO NOT DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE DONE UNTO YOU.

THUS, IT IMPLIES THAT EVERY HUMAN BEING IS A REFLECTION AND EXPRESSION OF THE SELF, THAT WHAT WE DO TO ANYONE, WE DO TO OURSELVES, AND WE DO IT TO THE ONE WHO CREATED US.

THUS, IT ALSO IMPLIES THAT THE TRUE NATURE OF EVERY HUMAN BEING IS THE DIVINE EXPRESSION OF GOD CLOTHE IN MORTAL FORM, WHICH WE SHOULD HAVE RESPECTED, AND GIVEN THE DIGNITY, FAIRNESS, COMPASSION AND MERCY, AND MOST OF ALL-- LOVE, FOR THE SAKE OF OUR CREATOR, WHOSE IMAGE AND LIKENESS IS UPON EVERY HUMAN BEING.

IT IMPLIES THAT HUMANITY SHOULD FROM THE VERY START, HAVE LOVED ONE ANOTHER, CARED FOR ONE ANOTHER, HELPED ONE ANOTHER, AND EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE LIFTED EACH OTHER UP, TO BUILD UP EACH OTHER FOR THE GOOD.

THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN WHAT GOD INTEND EACH HUMAN BEING TO DO.

BUT, HUMAN BEINGS, MANY OF THEM, HAVE TURNED AWAY FROM GOD, AND HAS DONE EVIL AND WICKEDNESS TO ONE ANOTHER.

THESE ACTS IS ALSO DONE TO OUR CREATOR IN THE PROCESS, FOR WHEN WE DO THESE TO THE LEAST AMONG HUMANITY, WE DO IT TO GOD.

SUCH EVILS AND WICKEDNESS REACHES GOD, AND INEVITABLY INCITES THE WRATH OF GOD, WHICH GOD IS ACCUMULATING THROUGH THE YEARS THAT HUMANITY HAS DONE EVILS AND WICKEDNESS FROM GENERATIONS, BECAUSE HUMANITY HAS LOST THE SENSE OF BROTHERHOOD AND SISTERHOOD AMONG EACH OTHER.

THUS, WE ARE FACING TROUBLED TIMES, DUE TO THE EVILS AND WICKEDNESS HUMANITY HAS DONE TO ONE ANOTHER.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

REMEMBER THE TEACHINGS:

'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'

THUS, WE REALLY HAVE TO DEVELOP A SENSE OF EMPATHY, COMPASSION, MERCY AND MOST OF ALL, LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER, ESPECIALLY TO THE UNDERPRIVILEGED, WHO HAVE NOTHING OR LACKING IN MOST THINGS.

WHEN WE DO THIS, WE FULFILL THE COMMANDMENT: LOVE ONE ANOTHER, WHICH LEADS TO THE LOVE OF GOD.

WE CANNOT LOVE GOD WITHOUT LOVING THE LEAST OF OUR BRETHREN.

THIS IS THE TRUTH.

FOR HOW CAN WE LOVE GOD WHOM WE CANNOT SEE WHEN WE CANNOT LOVE THOSE WHOM WE ALREADY ARE SEEING.

THUS, AS WE MEET OTHERS, LET US KEEP AT HEART GOD'S WILL FOR US TO BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER, AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

IF ANYONE IS EVIL AND WICKED TO US, JUST TO KEEP THE PEACE, WE TAKE MEASURES TO AT LEAST STOP THEM FROM PERSISTING IN DOING THEIR EVILS AGAINST US.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, AND FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS, KNOWING WHAT GOD WILL DO IF EVER HE SEES ANYONE DOING EVIL AND WICKEDNESS, I HAVE TAKEN THE INITIATIVE TO CUT OFF TIES IF NECESSARY TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN ADVERSE AND HAVE BEEN CONDEMNING ME FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS--- THAT I MAY NOT BECOME AN OCCASION FOR SIN TO THEM, THAT THRU THAT INITIATIVE ON MY PART, THEY WILL NOT FURTHER INCREASE THEIR SINS AGAINST ME AND GOD, FOR DOING SUCH THINGS THAT THEY DO.

GOD HATES THE PROUD, THE ARROGANT, THE BOASTFUL, AND THOSE WHOSE HEARTS ARE EVIL AND WICKED, WHO PLOT EVIL SCHEMES AT HEART.

KNOWING THIS, THAT GOD HATES THEM, AND WILL TRIGGER HIS ANGER WHEN HE SEES THESE KINDS OF PEOPLE, AND WHAT THEY DO, I REFRAIN FROM FURTHER MEETING PEOPLE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE ON THAT CATEGORY, FOR THE LOVE OF HUMANITY, KNOWING THE CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH, WHEN THESE PEOPLE INCITES THE ANGER OF GOD.

THUS, TO AVOID PEOPLE WHO WILL DO HARM TO YOU IS ALSO AN ACT OF LOVE, THAT YOU PREVENT THEM FROM FURTHER INCREASING THEIR SINS AGAINST GOD, KNOWING THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

FOR PEACE, THERE ARE TIMES WE MUST ALSO SACRIFICE IN FORM OF PATIENCE, TOLERANCE, UNDERSTANDING, AND AVOIDING PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN CAUSING TROUBLES AND PROVOKING YOU, AND PUTTING STUMBLING BLOCKS ALONG YOUR WAY, THAT YOU MAY STUMBLE IN THE PATH YOU WALK IN, FOR THE SAKE OF DOING THE WILL OF GOD.

THUS, FOR PEACE, THERE ARE TIMES WE KEPT SILENT, AND ENTRUST ALL OF THESE TO GOD, FOR THE SAKE OF THE GREATER GOOD.

TIME IS SHORT, WE CANNOT AFFORD TO WASTE TIME IN CONFLICTS AND CONFRONTATION AGAINST THESE EVIL ONES, FOR THE MISSION WORKS ENTRUSTED TO US BY GOD IS NEEDED TO BE DONE, AND THUS WE FOCUS ON WHAT IS IMPORTANT, AND LEAVE TO GOD THE REST.

OUR DUTY AND OBLIGATION TO GOD IS TO DO HIS DIVINE WILL, AND ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL COMMANDMENTS IS LOVE.

THUS, WE TRY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO DO IN EVERY OPPORTUNITY WHAT IS GOOD, UNTIL THE END OF OUR LIVES.

DOING WHAT IS GOOD IS LOVE, FOR IT PROMOTES GOODNESS TO ONE ANOTHER, WHOEVER THEY ARE, IRREGARDLESS OF STATUS, RACE, CREED, BELIEFS, STANDING ETC.

GOD IS LOVE, THUS WHEN WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER, WE FULFILL THE DIVINE WILL.

GOD BLESS EVERYONE.

Isaiah 43:4

Isaiah 43:4

Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you, nations in exchange for your life.

SOMETHING OF NOTE:

WHEN YOU TRY TO DO HARM TO SOMEONE WHOM GOD LOVES, GOD WILL ALLOW OTHER PEOPLE TO BECOME SACRIFICES JUST FOR THE ONE HE LOVES TO LIVE.

GOD WILL GO TO THE POINT THAT EVEN NATIONS WILL BE SACRIFICED FOR THE ONE HE LOVES, IN EXCHANGE FOR THE LIFE OF THE ONE GOD LOVES, HE WILL ALLOW NATIONS TO BE SACRIFICED FOR THE ONE WHOM GOD LOVES.

THUS, IF ANYONE ATTEMPTS ANYTHING AGAINST THE ONE LOVED BY GOD, GOD WILL HIT THIS WORLD BACK, TO THE POINT THAT NATIONS WILL BE SACRIFICED SO THAT THE ONE GOD LOVES WILL SURVIVE.

KNOW THIS- GOD WILL GO THAT FAR FOR SOMEONE HE LOVES, AND WHO IS PRECIOUS AND HONORED IN HIS SIGHT.

THUS, NEVER PROVOKE THE ANGER OF GOD BY DOING THIS KIND OF EVIL.... FOR IF YOU DO THIS, GOD WILL TAKE REVENGE ON THIS WORLD, AND WILL INCREASE ITS SUFFERINGS THE MORE THAN IT ALREADY HAS.....

THERE ARE EVIL/ WICKED PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE THIS, WHO ARE DUMB BEYOND BELIEF, THAT HAS CAUSED FOR THE WRATH OF GOD TO FALL UPON THIS WORLD THE MORE BECAUSE THEY ARE HITTING AGAINST THOSE WHOM GOD LOVES..... AND AS CONSEQUENCES, LIVES WERE DESTROYED AND NATIONS SUFFERED DEATHS OF THEIR PEOPLE DUE TO THE WRATH OF GOD BEING POURED UPON THIS WORLD....

REGARDING RELATIONSHIPS

REGARDING RELATIONSHIPS.

RELATIONSHIPS CANNOT BE ONE WAY, NOR CAN IT BE ON ONE SIDE ONLY.

IT HAS TO BE WORKED OUT BY BOTH PARTIES, AND TO DO WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THAT RELATIONSHIP.

IT CANNOT BE ONE SIDED, AND IT CANNOT BE WITHOUT COMPROMISE OR MEETING HALF WAY BETWEEN THE PARTIES INVOLVED.

IT CANNOT BE A MONOPOLY OR SOLITARY RULE, OR A DICTATORSHIP.

IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE MEETING HALF-WAY, AND BOTH PARTIES SHOULD BE WILLING TO COMPROMISE ON A MIDDLE GROUND.

THAT IS IF YOU REALLY WANT PEACE TO BE WITH BOTH OF YOU.

IT CANNOT BE AN ABUSIVE OR CONTROLLING RELATIONSHIP.

IT CANNOT BE A RELATIONSHIP WHERE YOU WILL LOSE YOUR PATIENCE.

IF YOU DO, THEN THERE WILL BE A BREACH IN YOUR PEACE, AND PROBLEMS WILL HAPPEN AND CONFLICTS WILL GO DEEPER.

TRY TO RESOLVE THINGS HALF-WAY IN A RELATIONSHIP.

IF IT CANNOT BE SO, THEN THAT RELATIONSHIP WILL FALL APART, SOONER OR LATER.

HOPE THERE BE PEACE WITH OUR RELATIONSHIPS.

IF IT CANNOT BE, BETTER TO AVOID CONFLICTS IF POSSIBLE.

BETTER TO LIMIT COMMUNICATIONS, THAN TO TRIGGER POTENTIALLY HARMFUL CONFLICTS WITH ONE ANOTHER.

12-29-2015--- STORY

THIS DAY, I MET A DRIVER WHO HAS BEEN ENDOWED WITH THE SPIRIT OF GOD.

HE HAS RECOGNIZED THE TEMPORARINESS OF LIFE, THAT NO ONE WILL ESCAPE DEATH, THAT ALL OF US NEED TO BE PREPARED ALL THE TIME FOR DEATH, AND TO FACE GOD WHEN OUR TIME COMES.

THUS, THERE IS A NEED TO DO ALL THE GOOD WE CAN WITH WHAT MEANS WE CAN.

IT IS NOT WEALTH THAT WILL MATTER IN DOING GOOD, BUT THE HEART TO DO WHAT IS GOOD.

WHEN WE LIVE OUR DAYS FOCUSED IN DOING GOD'S WILL, WE WILL BE PREPARED FOR DEATH, ANYTIME OUR TIME COMES.

THESE ARE THE ESSENCE OF OUR CONVERSATION THIS DAY.

WE LIVE ONLY TEMPORARILY IN THIS WORLD, AND THEN WE FACE GOD, OUR CREATOR.

HAPPY ARE THOSE WHO FACE GOD DOING THE BEST ONE CAN FOR THE GOOD AND FULFILLMENT OF HIS DIVINE WILL.

DECEMBER 29, 2015-2

IN THIS WORLD, THE EVERYDAY ACTIVITIES THAT WE DO DROWN OUR LIVES.

WE BUSY OURSELVES WITH THE EVERYDAY CARES OF THIS WORLD.

AND AT TIMES WE DROWN IN OUR EVERYDAY ROUTINE.

IF THIS IS HAPPENING TO US, LET US TAKE TIME, EVEN FOR A MOMENT, TO REFLECT, MEDITATE, AND CONTEMPLATE.

THAT WE CAN FIND MEANING TO ALL OF THESE, AND MAKE OUR DAILY ACTIVITIES AND ACTIONS WORTHWHILE.

IN OUR LIVES, WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT WE HAVE LIVED OUR LIVES FOR A HIGHER PURPOSE-- A PURPOSE HIGHER THAN OURSELVES.

THIS WILL HELP US TO CONTINUE ON WITH LIFE WITH MEANING.

IF WE LIVE OUR LIVES IN LOVE, WE WILL HAVE OUR LIVES FULL WITH MEANING AND FERVOR.

GOD BLESS US...

DECEMBER 29, 2015- 1

LIFE IS SHORT, AND LIMITED... WE NEED TO LEARN TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF LIFE. TO FIND MEANING IN OUR EVERYDAY EXISTENCE. TO MAKE OUR LIVES MEANINGFUL TO CONTINUE ON WITH OUR LIVES... TO LEARN FROM EVERYDAY EXPERIENCE. OUR LIVES WILL BE BETTER IF WE LIVE FOR THE GOOD... THAT WHEN WE LEAVE THIS WORLD, THE WORLD HAVE BECOME A BETTER PLACE THRU TO US. GOD BLESS...

Matthew 4:8-9

Matthew 4:8-9

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor.

and he said to Him, "All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me."

MEDITATION:

IF YOU READ THESE VERSES CAREFULLY, YOU WILL COME TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE DEVIL.

THE DEVIL OWNS ALL THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD AND THEIR SPLENDOR.

ONE CANNOT GIVE THAT ONE DOES NOT POSSESS.

THE CONDITION GIVEN IS TO FALL DOWN AND WORSHIP THE DEVIL.

THUS, THERE IS A DIRECT OPPOSITION BETWEEN WORSHIP OF GOD AND WORDHIP OF THE DEVIL...

WHEN YOU WORSHIP THE DEVIL, THE DEVIL WILL GIVE YOU ALL THE MATERIAL BENEFITS, PLEASURES OF THIS WORLD, AND ALL THAT IS IN THE WORLD, IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR SOUL.

WHILE WHEN YOU FOLLOW GOD, YOU WILL LIVE A LIFE OF SELF SACRIFICE, OF SUFFERING FOR THE WILL OF GOD, TO ENDURE THESE SUFFERINGS, TILL THE VERY END, IN EXCHANGE FOR ETERNAL LIFE AND SALVATION.

WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE? THE DEVIL OR GOD?

WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE, THERE WILL BE SACRIFICES.

THE WAY OF THE DEVIL IS GIVING YOU THE REWARDS FIRST BEFORE BEING CONDEMNED FOR ETERNITY.

WHILE THE WAY OF GOD IS SACRIFICING FIRST, BEFORE RECEIVING ETERNAL LIFE AND SALVATION.

CHOOSE WISELY....

1 John 2:15

1 John 2:15

Do not love the world or anything in the world.
If anyone loves the world,
love for the Father is not in them.


MEDITATION:

TO UNDERSTAND THIS, ONE MUST REALLY DO MUCH REFLECTION AND MEDITATION.
THE BASIC QUESTIONS TO MEDITATE UPON ARE THIS:

WHAT IS THIS WORLD?
EARTH

IN ESSENCE, WHAT IS THIS WORLD?
MATERIAL WORLD

WHAT IS THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL THE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS WORLD IN ONE PHRASE?
SURVIVAL

WHAT DOES THE MAJORITY OF THIS WORLD REALLY VALUE?
SURVIVAL

WHAT IS THE MATERIAL THING THAT ENSURES SURVIVAL OF MOST PEOPLE?
MONEY

WHAT DOES THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD LOVE?
MONEY

WHAT THING CAN PEOPLE LIE FOR, DIE FOR, AND SELL THEIR SOULS TO THE DEVIL FOR?
MONEY

WHAT DOES THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER AT ITS BEST?
THE GLORY, HONOR, RICHES, WEALTH, POWER OVER ALL THE KINGDOMS, NATIONS, COUNTRIES OF THIS WORLD.

WHAT IS THE KEY PRINCIPLE IN THIS WORLD?
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST


IF YOU WILL LOVE THE WORLD, OR ANYTHING IN IT, WHAT KIND OF PERSON WILL YOU BECOME?

A GREEDY, SELFISH, SELF GRATIFYING, CLEVER, MANIPULATIVE, DECEITFUL, TO THE POINT OF BEING EVIL AND WICKED, JUST TO GAIN WHAT YOU WANTED.

EVEN IF IT MEANS MAKING OTHERS AS YOUR STEPPING STONES TO ACCOMPLISH YOUR PERSONAL GOALS AND AMBITIONS.

NOW, LET US MEDITATE ON THE WORDS OF GOD THAT WE COME TO KNOW OF.

ARE THE PRINCIPLES THAT THIS WORLD IS BUILT UPON IN CONFLICT WITH THE WILL OF GOD?
YES

IF YOU WILL LOVE GOD, CAN YOU LOVE THIS WORLD AND ANYTHING IN IT?
NO

WHY?
FOR THE VERY PRINCIPLES OF THIS WORLD ARE IN OPPOSITION TO THE WILL OF GOD.

THUS, WHO ARE YOU TO FOLLOW? GOD OR THIS WORLD?

THIS ANSWER IS FOR YOU TO ANSWER BY YOURSELF.

WHATEVER YOUR ANSWER IS, THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES, AND THERE WILL BE SACRIFICES INVOLVED, BOTH WAYS.

MEDITATE ON THIS, BEFORE CHOOSING WHOM TO LOVE, GOD OR THIS WORLD....

Mark 4:19

Mark 4:19
but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful.

MEDITATION:

THERE ARE TIMES THAT THE SYSTEM OF LIFE IN THIS WORLD, THE NEEDS, THE WANTS, OBLIGATIONS, BILLS, EXPENSES, AND OTHER THINGS OF THIS WORLD WILL LITERALLY PUT PEOPLE TO IMBALANCE, AND WILL CAUSE THEM TO FALL INTO DISBELIEF IN GOD'S WORD.

THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WILL SAY:

CAN PRINCIPLES FEED US?
WHERE IS GOD WHEN I NEED HIM?
CAN GOD PAY MY BILLS FOR ME?
CAN GOD DO SOMETHING TO SETTLE MY OBLIGATIONS?
IF I PRIORITIZE GOD, WHAT WILL BECOME OF MY FAMILY?
I WILL GO BROKE IF I GIVE FOR THE CAUSE OF GOD...
I WILL BE RUINED IN TIME IF I FOLLOW GOD' WORD...
THE WORD OF GOD IS IMPRACTICAL TO THIS WORLD...
MONEY IS THE ONE RUNNING THIS WORLD...
HOW RIDICULOUS ARE YOU TO BELIEVE IN GOD?
THIS MONEY I CAN SEE. GOD, I CANNOT SEE HIM. WHERE IS HE?
I LIKE TO PLEASURE MYSELF. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
THIS MONEY IS MINE, I WORKED FOR IT. THE HELL WITH YOU TELLING ME TO GIVE FOR GOD.
I RATHER LIVE MY LIFE PLEASING MYSELF THAN DOING WHAT GOD WILLS.

ARE SOME OF THESE STATEMENTS FAMILIAR?

THEY ARE THE VOICE OF THE MATERIAL BODY OPPOSING THE WORD OF GOD, CHOKING IT, SO THAT IT WILL NOT BEAR FRUIT.

OUR VERY BODIES ARE ENEMIES TO THE WILL OF GOD, FOR IT SEEKS TO PLEASURE AND BENEFIT ITSELF EVEN AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHERS.

THUS, IN THIS LIFE, WE ARE CONSTANTLY FIGHTING A BATTLE WITH OUR SELVES.

THE TWO OPPOSING FORCES: THE WORD OF GOD, AND THE BODY THAT WE HAVE.

AND AS WE LIVE, WE CONTINUE TO FIGHT, UNTIL EITHER THE WORD OF GOD WINS, OR THE BODY WINS.

THUS, EVEN THE BEST AMONG US, WILL SIN FROM TIME TO TIME.

FOR EVEN IF THE SPIRIT IS WILLING, THE FLESH IS WEAK.

ALL OF US ARE SUBJECTED TO THE WEAKNESSES OF THE BODY.

THUS, ONLY A FEW OF US WILL BE ABLE TO SUCCEED IN MAKING THE WORD OF GOD TRIUMPH IN US AND BEAR FRUIT.

GOD HAVE MERCY ON US.

12-28-2015-----1

GREETINGS OF LIGHT AND LOVE....

GOD HAVE MERCY UPON US...

IN EVERY BLESSINGS AND EVERY LESSONS LIFE HAS GIVEN US, LET US THANK OUR GOD FOR ALL OF THESE...

OUR LIFE IN THIS WORLD IS LIMITED, AND OUR STAY HERE IS TEMPORARY.

LET US BE GRATEFUL TO OUR CREATOR FOR THE EXPERIENCE OF BEING HERE, FOR BEING ALIVE, AND CONTINUING TO EXIST AND LIVING.

ONE DAY, WE WILL BE GONE, AND ONLY THE MEMORY OF US REMAINS.

LET US MEDITATE ON THE MESSAGE OF LIFE, THAT WE NEED TO SPEND OUR TIME FOR GOOD PURPOSES, FOR THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD.

GOD BLESS US...

the world hates us

John 15:18

"If the world hates you,

keep in mind that it hated me first.

John 17:14

I have given them your word and the world has hated them,

for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world.

MEDITATION:

IN THIS WORLD OF EVIL AND WICKEDNESS, WHEREIN HUMANITY IS IMPRISONED BY THE POWER OF THE EVIL ONE, ALL WHO ARE IN THE WORLD WILL HATE THE WILL OF GOD AND ITS FULFILLMENT.

THE WORLD IS ADVERSE TO THOSE WHO REALLY DO THE DIVINE WILL, FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT THE DEVIL, THE DEMONS INSIDE THEM, IS OPPOSED TO ANY IDEAS OF RELEASING ITS PREY FOR GOD.

THUS, HUMANITY IS IN A CONSTANT STRUGGLE IN DOING THE WILL OF GOD.

THE VERY SYSTEMS OF THE WORLD IS OPPOSED TO GOD'S WILL, FOR IT PROMOTES SELF INTEREST, AND SELF GAIN, AND NOT TO DO GOOD FOR OTHERS AT HEART.

THE VERY POWER THAT CONTROLS THIS WORLD ARE EVIL--- THEY ARE A SYSTEM THAT PERPETUATE EVIL, AND WILL REFUSE TO DISMANTLE FOR THE SAKE OF DOING THE DIVINE WILL...

THUS, WHAT WILL BECOME OF ALL WHO DO THE DIVINE WILL UNTIL THE END?

THIS WORLD WILL PERSECUTE ALL WHO DO THE WILL OF GOD.

FOR THIS WORLD IS UNDER THE POWER OF SATAN, THE EVIL ONE, THE OLD SERPENT, THE DEVIL....

THE REWARD FOR DOING THE WILL OF GOD DOES NOT LIE IN THIS WORLD, BUT IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD, WHEREIN THOSE WHO REALLY SACRIFICED TO DO THE DIVINE WILL SHALL BELONG...

OUR LIVES ARE TEMPORARY, AND THIS WORLD IS FLEETING.

IF WE REALLY ARE SERIOUS IN DOING THE WILL OF GOD, THERE IS A NEED TO SUFFER FOR IT, AND ENDURE THE PERSECUTIONS THE WORLD IS DOING TO THOSE WHO DO GOD'S WILL.

THE WORLD HATES ALL WHO DO GOD'S WILL, FOR IT HATES GOD FIRST AND FOREMOST.

THE WILL OF GOD AT TIMES GOES AGAINST EVERY SELF INTEREST, AGAINST EVERY SELFISHNESS, AND EVERY EVIL AND WICKEDNESS AMONG HUMANITY.

HUMANITY, MAJORITY OF THEM, LOVES THE WORLD, AND ITS WAYS.

THAT IS WHY MANY WILL REMAIN AGAINST DOING THE DIVINE WILL.

AND THIS LEADS TO A SOCIETY WHEREIN MANY ARE SELF SEEKING, PRETENTIOUS, LOVERS OF SELF, EVIL AND WICKED TO THE CORE.

THAT IS ALSO THE VERY REASON WHY THE WRATH OF GOD IS ALREADY UPON THIS WORLD, SLOWLY BEING POURED DOWN....

FOR THE EVIL AND WICKEDNESS OF THIS WORLD HAS BEEN EXHAUSTING THE COMPASSION AND MERCY OF GOD UPON HUMANITY.....

AND FOR THAT THIS WORLD IS AT PERIL TO BE DESTROYED ANYTIME...

ONLY WHO DO THE WILL OF GOD TO THE VERY END WILL BE SAVED, REMEMBER THAT.....

AND TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT, WE REALLY HAVE TO ENDURE BEING PERSECUTED FOR THE SAKE OF DOING GOD'S WILL.

TO BEAR ALL THEIR INSULTS, THEIR RIDICULE, THEIR ILL WORDS-- WHILE WE DO THE WILL OF GOD.

MAY WE ENDURE DOING THE WILL OF GOD TO THE VERY END.

GOD HAVE MERCY.

an explanation

WHEN WE STUDY THE WILL OF GOD, AND IF THERE BE A PART IN OURSELVES THAT WANT TO GO AGAINST THE TEACHINGS OF GOD- IT IS THE SEED OF THE ENEMY IMPLANTED IN US AS WE BECAME HUMANS IN THIS WORLD.

ALL OF HUMANITY HAS BEEN IMPLANTED WITH THAT EVIL SEED, TO OPPOSE ALL THAT IS GOOD, AND ALL THAT IS WITHIN THE WILL OF GOD.

THUS, IT HAPPENS THAT THOSE WHO DO GOD'S WILL BE PERSECUTED, TO HE HARMED, AND EVEN KILLED FOR DOING THE WILL OF GOD.

THIS WORLD HAS DONE THESE THINGS TO ITS PROPHETS, TO ITS SAVIOR, AND TO ALL WHO WILL CONTINUE TO DO THE DIVINE WILL.

THIS IS EXPECTED.

BUT WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL BE BETTER?

TO SUFFER FOR DOING EVIL. OR TO SUFFER FOR DOING WHAT IS GOOD?

IT IS WRITTEN:

1 Peter 3:17

For it is better, if it is God's will,

to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.

THUS, AS WE SUFFER IN DOING THE WILL OF GOD, IT MEANS CLEANSING AND PURIFICATION OF OUR BEING, THAT WHEN WE DO GOD'S WILL TILL THE END, WE MIGHT BE SAVED.

GOD HAVE MERCY.

GOD BLESS...

SEEK THE GOOD OF OTHERS

1 Corinthians 10:24

No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.

MEDITATION:

This teaching is not that easy to be done by people who are used to gratifying oneself, and satisfying one's own desires and wants.

Yet, it is written, for us to do, for the good...

When we seek the good of others above our own good, we will really learn how to truly love.

This means that we regard others higher than ourselves, and we keep in mind what is good for every person...

If we can sacrifice for the greater good, then more good will happen--- for those who really matter to us.

If we seek the good of others instead of our own good, we will promote good in our very communities that we are in.

Life in God is not that easy, and it requires discipline to do His Will....

It will require everyday practice, till it becomes second nature, resisting the opposing force inside us, to do the Will of God.

Thus, we sacrifice, for the good of others, for the Will of God to be fulfilled.

Thus, when we do this, we consider those who are in need, who are in a state of utter lack, and really are in peril, due to lack of resources.

We also then sacrifice our time and effort- in order to fulfill the Divine Will, for the good.... which in turn promotes the good of others.

How to be able to do this? If we truly love God with all that we are and all that we have, we can do this, even if it is hard.

It is not an overnight process, but as we go along with our mission works, we will learn this and it will become second nature to us--- to seek the good of others.....

God have mercy upon us....

God bless us...

THE TRUE PURPOSE OF OUR LIVES

THE TRUE PURPOSE OF OUR LIVES:

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHY WE ARE CREATED BY GOD AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE?

Philippians 2:13

for it is God who works in you to will and to act

in order to fulfill his good purpose.

GOD CREATED US THAT WE BECOME CO-WORKERS OF GOD, THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO WILL AND ACT TO FULFILL HIS GOOD PURPOSE.

THUS, WHEN GOD'S PRESENCE WORKS IN US, IT IS FOR US TO DO THE DIVINE WILL, AND THE ACTIONS RESULTING TO THIS WILL BE FOR THE GREATER GOOD.

1 Peter 4:19

So then, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.

AND EVEN IF IT COMES TO THE POINT THAT WE SUFFER PERSECUTIONS IN DOING THE DIVINE WILL, WE SHOULD STILL CONTINUE TO COMMIT OURSELVES TO GOD AND DO WHAT IS GOOD.....

WE ARE MADE BY GOD FOR THESE, FOR GOODNESS....

THUS, WHEN WE DO EVIL AND WICKEDNESS, WE GO ASTRAY, AND TURN OUR BACKS FROM GOD.

THIS IS WHAT MAJORITY OF HUMANITY IS DOING--- THEY IGNORE THE VERY PURPOSE OF THEIR CREATION....

FOR EVERY VIOLATION OF OUR VERY PURPOSE OF BEING CREATED, THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES.

HUMANITY HAS BEEN PLANTING THE SEEDS OF EVIL AND WICKEDNESS IN THIS WORLD, BECAUSE MANY AMONG HUMANITY HAS TURNED AWAY FROM GOD....

IN DUE TIME, THESE SEEDS WILL GROW TO FULL GROWN, AND BEAR FRUIT.... AND HUMANITY SUFFERS FROM ITS OWN EVILS AND WICKEDNESS....

IF WE REALLY INTEND TO COME NEAR TO GOD, AND RECONCILE WITH HIM, FULFILL OUR VERY PURPOSE OF BEING CREATED: TO DO HIS DIVINE WILL FOR GOOD PURPOSES.

IF WE DO THAT, AND CONTINUALLY DO THAT, THERE WILL COME A TIME THAT GOD WILL HAVE MERCY UPON US, AND HELP US ALONG HIS PATH.... THAT WE MAY BE SAVED....

GOD HAVE MERCY....

GOD BLESS....
