In this Life, Friendship Matters

Proverbs 18:24 NIV
"One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother"

    Trust is one of the things we give to our friends. In fact, it is the foundation of every relationship. Our trusted friend/s is/are always there for us. They always listen, always understand, always encourage, always care, and always love. "Mere presence is a support". In friendship, you always have each other's back. It is a mutual relationship. The experiences you had with your friends, good or bad, made your bond/s stronger. Whenever and wherever I have faith that friendship grounded in trust is a rock-solid friendship.

A testimony of my calling and faith journey

 Gale, Jesemae Gael O. Senior-ABCE A testimony of my calling and faith journey                   I am Jesemae Gael O. Gale, a graduating student at Harris Memorial College, a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Education -under the Deaconess Program. The following paragraphs will revolve around my faith journey and calling to the deaconess ministry.                 When I was in grade 7, 13 years old, I started getting involved in church work as a youth. At that time, I gradually came to know the Lord. As a teenager, my only priority was to study. By taking the initiative to approach the Lord and read and study the Word of God with the help of fellow believers in the church, I realized that the relationship with God should also be valued. In 2016, I completely accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior,...

     Ika- siyamnapu't walong (98)  araw na ngayon (September 11, 2024) nang ako ay itinalaga bilang isang Diyakonesa (Deaconess) sa Pangasinan West Island District, sa kumperensya ng Hundred Islands Philippines Annual Conference, Baguio Episcopal Area ng simbahang United Methodist Church sa Pilipinas sa pangunguna ng mahal na obispo na si Rev. Rodel Acdal para sa ikararangal ng ang Diyos Ama sa pagliligtas ni Hesu Cristo at patnubay ng Banal na Espiritu.      Mahalaga ang araw na ito, sapagkat aking ipinapanalangin na samahan nawa ako ng ating Diyos sa aking pagsusulat.       Sa  nakalipas na mga araw, nagtanong ako sa ating Diyos kung ano ang aking gagawin at dapat isulat. Marami akong nasaksihan na mga pangyayari (kasiyasiya man o hindi), nakilalalang tao, napuntahang lugar, natanggap na pagapapala, at nakita at naramdaman ang kabutihan ng Diyos sa lahat ng pagkakataon. Marami akong naiisip na mga bagay-bagay  na hindi k...

THE CONFESSION

     While I am reading a book title "Leadership That Builds" by Glenn Johnson, on its chapter title "A leader Must Have Integrity", I remember my life verse in Psalm 111:10 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and all who follow His precepts have good understanding, to Him belongs eternal praise." The book explains that fearing God is trusting Him with confidence, but this may fail when you feel guilty at some point in your life.  The hindrance of our confidence in God is the feeling of guilt. In Nehemiah (Book in the Old Testament), which is the scriptural foundation of the said book, confession is Nehemiah's way on gaining confidence in God. He said in Nehemiah 1:6 " let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for your servants, the Israelites, confessing the sins of the Israelites, which we have sinned against you. Both I and my family have sinned."  ...
