The Power of Touch

The word touched was mentioned several times in the gospel of Luke.
When the Lord touched the leper he was healed, when He touched the bier of the widow's son, he was brought to life and when 12 years hemorrhaging woman touched His fringe garment, the blood stopped and instantly got healed.

He was able to performed all those "miracles" because He was able to live the highest standard of morality. His heaven-ruled deeds became a virtue that becomes the healing power. What a God-man He is and He is our man Savior.

We are also sick (spiritually), we need to touch Christ humanity.

Just one touch from you dear Lord...

FAC

Tomorrow I'm taking a leave for work...
I'll be the attending the 3-day Fellowship Among the Churches (FAC)in Malabon.
This would happen twice a year..
I'm quite excited this FAC because I'd missed the last one
Considering that I just gave birth at that time..

The churches from Regions 1-6 and some representatives from VizMin
Would come together to enjoy the timely speaking of the blending brothers
Regarding the flow of Ministry today.
I consecrate myself to be open for His divine infilling.
Thank the Lord for the one flow of Ministry..

Most Noble Profession

Maybe some would think that serving the Lord would just be a waste of time
But let me tell you, its the most noble profession on this earth.
Come to think of it, you will be serving the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
One would not be earning money and become rich and famous BUT
The reward is something eternal, without end.
You would be one with Him as co-kings in the New Heaven and New Earth in eternity.

The harvest is great but the workers are few...
Who would take heed for His need (?)
May you find favor in the eyes of the Lord
Serving Him is not something that He owes from us
But its something of His grace and mercy that you can serve Him.

The fact is, as a BELIEVER, its our LIFE and LIVING to serve Him
We have been bought with the highest price
His most precious blood
We are already His possession
Do you have the right to say no?

Will you enlist yourselves as one of the THOUSAND BUCKLERS???

His Faithfulness

Yesterday when I was heading home
I saw in the sky the rainbow
Then I remember the Lord's unfading faithfulness

Many times I seem to be unfaithful (to Him)
I always forgot the little portion that is ought to Him
But even though He always takes care of me (of us my family)
Day by day He is my sufficient grace...
The daily thorns are there but the sufficiency of His grace
Sustains me to live the day

What a mercy and grace
To Him I give back the glory and praises
To Him who's faithfulness is beyond words...

Lord I love you, I just love you...

Unto A Certain Destiny

I’ve found the One of peerless worth at a very young age. I was fortunate enough to be born and raised in a Christian family in the Lord’s recovery. I am a typical third-generation Christian where home, school and meeting hall was my usual environment. I grew up attending children’s meeting, young people’s meeting and the Lord’s Table meeting. It was the entire world to me. But as far as knowing Christ, He was still objective to me, until such time that I was brought to the water of baptism that I begun to experience Him in a subjective way. Although high school days had a very big influenced to me to be associated with worldly things but it never caused me to be lukewarm in enjoying the Lord and the church life.
It was during college days that I was exposed to the world. I studied in a university that is quite far away from home. I made friends with unbelievers, I tasted the worldly pleasures and sometimes I could not see myself different from them. But praise the Lord, God selected me and then marked me beforehand, before the foundation of the world, unto a certain destiny. I was caught by the love and shepherding of the full-timers assigned in our campus through our campus work and one-on-one pursuit of the truth. I had a great turned, back to my first love who is Christ Himself. After my tertiary level, I consecrated myself to join the Fulltime Training in Malabon (FTTM).

Lovely And Perfect Environment
I joined the 31st batch of the FTTM. My whole being was prepared to be trained and be perfected in life, truth, gospel and service. I was conditioned to it that I did not experienced hardship but enjoyment. I truly treasured the first year of my training wherein I was fully fed with the rich supply of the ministry. I would see to it that every session I would gain a certain amount of Christ. I became an enjoyer of the truths, everyday it seems that I couldn’t get enough. What a lovely and perfect environment to be soaked, saturated and permeated with the Triune God! I also experienced being dealt with by the Lord that made be broken into pieces. It was a great opportunity for me to know the Lord more in a much deeper way. I proceeded for another 2 years of training. I became involved in the literature works wherein I coordinated with the saints assigned in the New Man publication. I found joy and peace coordinating in this kind of work. I also learned the value of coordination when I was assigned for propagation work into various places like Bulacan, Laguna, Cavite, Bicol Region, and Iloilo City. I was teamed up with different trainees having their own dispositions. But the Lord never let propagation passed without working Himself in me. He is the inner operating God, stitching and mending my character to fully fit with others. Three years of staying in the training center just passed by so quickly that I have to decide whether to be a money-making full-timer or a job dropping one. Then, I finally decided to work as a money-making full-timer.

The Lord As Our Satisfaction
After the training, I served for a couple of months in our locality as a local full-timer. Serving with other full-timers my heart was enlarged and broadened as we worked with a burden in an environment wherein the real battle happened. My experienced of the Lord during those times was of another level. It was in a higher level that I consecrated myself to the Lord that whatever I do, it will be for His economy. Then I worked in a call center industry for almost two years. The pay was quite good. I could buy anything I want and I also can give something for the Lord. But deep within me is a sense of dissatisfaction. Praise the Lord that Christ is the bread of life for those who are laboring at the feast of the Passover and He is the living water that can quench the thirst for those who are resting and enjoying at the feast of Tabernacle. Only the Lord Himself can be our satisfaction. Nothing in this world is adequate to fill my hunger and quench my thirst. In His sovereignty, He changed my environment.

Living By and Of Faith
The Lord in His multifarious wisdom prepared a counterpart for me who also love Him to the uttermost. He could never be wronged in His arrangement and in His ways. My environment completely changed. We just got married and presently we are serving in the province of Bulacan, both of us also are coordinating in the training center in a matter of teaching and service. Although unworthy vessels we are, yet, we found favor in the eyes of God. We don’t know about tomorrow because we are just living from day to day, a living by and of faith. Now, we have a baby, an additional member of the Body of Christ, an increase of Christ, who would help us in carrying the burden of God’s economy to the churches where we are serving now. May the Lord carry us through that we will be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that our labor is not in vain in the Lord. (1Cor 15:58) Amen.

This Generation

Morning time is quite hard when your riding Metrostar Express or best known as MRT.
Passengers are skin to skin, and everybody is squeezing in just to fit in the train.
As usual, I'm standing holding at the handrail when somebody at my back hold me. When I
turned around to see her, she was a very old woman. Then I said to her, oh yes just hold my hand lola..I looked at the ladies who are sitting comfortably as if telling them to allow the old woman to sit but a big BUT nobody offered the sit to her. I can't help but ask myself 'What wrong with these people?'

This generation is quite far off from the past generations, Im only 28 years old but I could say this generation is getting worse. We need to spread the Gospel(Christ Himself) to this young generation so that we can change this crooked and perverted generation. Lord save us from this generation...

At the end of the day

My day usually starts at 5am.
Woke up, rushed to shower, get dressed...
Take a ride and off to work

Another typical day...
Work,work,and work
Sometimes exhausted
Sometimes it felt good
But whatever it is
Always looking forward
To the end of the day

At the end of the day
Is where my happiness is
Where I dedicate my work
Where I gave my all

He is my little angel
The love of my life
My Danlesh Eliakim....
