My Life Verse


"Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture..."

       My life verse is taken from Mark 9:23, it states that," Everything is possible to a man who trusts." For me, the meaning of this is that we should not doubt or conclude about the things we are not sure of. As the Lord trusts us with all His heart to take care of all His creations, we should also trust ourselves that we can do something, we can accomplish something even the impossible.

       There are things we can do to accomplish something, one is, we should think of the positive side. If you doubted something, you have refused to know the God's truth that should be revealed. Like God has revealed Himself to us, we should believe and trust Him beacause He knows the truth and He knows everything here on Earth. In addition, if we doubt, it may lead us to spiritual blindness. If we trust then that means that we believe that something will happen positively.

       

Worship Experience

Holy Redeemer Church

       "All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord; they will bring glory to your name. For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God." ~~Psalm 86:9-10
       
       When everytime I enter the church, I feel like the Holy Spirit touches my heart and makes me a better person. I really feel that when I enter the Church I will learn a lot throughout the whole mass.

       Last time I've attended the mass, I learned that I shall help others. I shall help those people who really need my help specially the poor ones. Here in the Philippines, there are a lot of poor people, but We have local organizations that's helping them to make their status in their life better. Base on the priest, the first thing I should do is to pray for them that in case they didn't fin the true happiness and treasure here on Earth, they will find them there- in Heaven. Next thing I should do is to make them feel that they're not alone.


       During the mass, I remembered all the bad things I have done to others, to myself and to God. I asked forgiveness to the Lord for what I have done wrong. I really feel sorry for what I have done wrong in these years of my existence.

       Before the mass ended, I made a promise to myself and to God that I will not do what are wrong. Instead, I will do things that are right, things will make me satisfied and things that God wants me to do. Truly, the Word of God is powerful that it can change anyone who wants to return to the side of the Lord and have an everlasting happiness and life.

Retreat Experience & Christ's Suffering


   "We should love the Lord with all our hearts, with all our souls and with all our minds..."

       The quote above is one of the things I learned in our recent retreat. Because God loves us, He sent His one and only son, Jesus Christ to save us from our sins. Jesus Christ was nailed in the cross just to save us from our sins.

       After our retreat at Capuchin, I viewed myself in the future and saw good things. I saw myself having good relationship to others, to myself and to God. This was carved in my mind because as a person, I knew that sometimes I'm not really doing good, I sometimes forget what is right and what is wrong. I am just a person that commit sins and mistakes but, I should try my best for others to see Christ in me and that I am a Son of God.

   Our retreat really made me better, whenever I commit sin, I quickly realize that it is wrong, suddenly, all the lessons I have learned in our recent retreat pops out in my mind. I know I should apply the lessons I've learned after the retreat but, sometimes I keep on asking myself if I really get the true meaning of things during that event, but it's the past, what's more important is that I have made a conclusion that I will change for the better. I now know that Christ carried the cross, suffered in the cross, nailed in the cross and died in the cross for us just to save us from our sins.
