May He be Glorified

(Read John 17 for reference)

This chapter reveals to me that in order for God to be glorified in us, we must go through something difficult; something painful; something that makes us suffer. It is not easy, and by just thinking about it, I fear. But the end, will always be amazing and perfect. It creates something in us; It brings something great; It makes us more closer to God; God shines more in our life. And He will be glorified. And that is the purpose of being a Christian - to bring glory unto God.

So remember that whatever you are facing, remind yourself that you are never alone, for it is God's way for Him to be glorified in your life. And no, He is not a selfish God who seeks glory, He is a God who deserves glory.

The Power of Giving

Speaker: Ptr. Jun Valenzuela
John 6:1-21

> God deserves your best.

> Give to God your best and let Him do the rest.

> The one who gives more are the one who will receive more.

> We need to constantly evaluate ourselves if we are still walking on the right path with God.

> Walking with God does not mean we are on a smooth sailing. Storm will come, but definitely, we are never going to be alone. He will call the storm to stop and calm the raging waves of the ocean. We are safe.

> God does not want a large amount of followers, He only wants the genuine hearts that is truly following Him. And so it has the same principle when it comes to giving unto Him.

> Number does not matter, our heart does.
