overcoming by His grace

Deuteronomy 3: 22 "You shall not fear them, for it is the Lord your God who fights for you." Deuteronomy 4: 31 "For the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you or forget the covenant with your father that He swore to them."

I can hardly express or explain what I'm going through right now. Plans have to be changed. A dream must be surrendered in exchange for a greater dream and purpose that is in accordance to His will.  But there's that peace that lives in my heart and I know that He's the reason for such peace. I'm truly amazed by what He makes me feel despite the things happening. Indeed, we cannot totally surpass, fathom or understand His great plans. They just lead us to full trust and faith in Him. According to Jim Stovall's The Ultimate Gift , "Any challenge that does not defeat us ultimately strengthens us." "If we are not allowed to deal with small problems,  we will be destroyed by slightly larger ones. When we come to understand this fact, we live our lives not avoiding problems, but welcoming them as challenges that will strengthen us so that we can be victorious in the future." Whatever I am facing at the moment, I believe this one's a preparation ...

"And the Lord said...'Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people.'" -Acts 18:9-10 wooohooo! take courage and share the gospel for you are not alone. the Lord is with you, and many of His people are sent all over the city with the same vision! :) 'greater things are yet to come, greater things are still to be done in this city.' let's all be part of it! win, consolidate, disciple, send! :)

The first time i heard the word kagyat  , i didn't know what it means. Then i tried to understand it through context clues and finally confirmed the meaning through the online translator in google. So, what does it really mean? kagyat is a Filipino word, which means immediate or urgent. I often heard the word last August, as used by some students of the university  (Unibersidad ng Pilipinas) . Sabi pa nila, "tayong mga kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan. Nararapat lang ang ating pagkilos sa kagyat na pagbabago." Anong klaseng pagkilos kaya 'yon? We'll i don't need to mention it. Alam niyo na kung anong ibig sabihin nila sa pagkilos na 'yon. We'll here's my point. Tama naman sila sa pagsasabing nararapat nga na kagyat tayong kumilos. Dahil tayo nga naman talaga ang pag-asa ng bayan. Kinakailangan nga lang natin 'tong patotohanan sa pamamagitan ng ating pananalita kaakibat ang paggawa. Kung kagyat na pagbabago ang hangad natin para sa bayan, tayo mis...
