Started our first meeting last night, December 19, 2023.
After a long time of not having a cell group, its like I'm doing it for the first time. Pero, siyempre, iba talaga kapag si Lord ang nanguna at sinundan mo lang ang utos Niya.
Like the first time, you're anxious about what you'll gonna teach them, worrying that you'll blurt out words that are not pleasing to them. But just like what i've said, iba talaga kapag naryan si Lord kasama mo. All I can is that everything was smooth, and we just became so in love with the Lord more. And all the more grateful for everything that happened. Since we were all praying for events like this in our lives that we can have a great family of God.
Like in the book of Acts, where Apostle Paul reached out for the churches who were persecuted and tortured by the Pharisees and Sadducees, there will be people out there who were asking for them to be trained and be empowered. It's like they were just waiting to be discipled. At eto na nga yun. And I'm excited that these leaders whom God led me to where people who are very hungry and excited to be trained in the things of God. You can just feel the atmosphere without competition, no jealousy, no malicious spirit, no pride, just love, just forgiveness, just freedom in Christ.
"God chose us" this is in accordance to 1 Peter 2:9. "A holy nation".. a nation that God called to multiply, to rule and reign and to be the salt and light of this world. This is where we will start discipling our own life, our own bodies, our career, our own families, our own struggles before we deal with others.
Maybe the reason why the others have not move forward, is because they did not take care of their own life. Kaya ayun, kahit anong convince mo sa kanila, mahirap silang kausap. Puro dasal at kulang sa gawa. I've realized this year that because you are chosen, you also need to know what you need to choose. Choose people, choose your friends, choose your priorities and choose whom you wanted to be with for the rest of your life. Because not everyone who are there with you will be loyal to you until the end. Kaya, just don't expect much from people, instead pray and just look at them the way the Lord wants you to look at them. With that, you'll be not disappointed whenever things changes or when PEOPLE CHANGES.
Honoring God pleases Him all the more. Kaya the whole time we were having our orientation during our first meeting, sobrang gaan lang at sobrang saya lang namin. ALL GLORY TO GOD! Sus, tanang desire to enjoy the ministry were coming back to life. And I pray that this journey with them will be limitless and endless as we serve God and be used by Him until the day of His coming.
