  “We might appear as opposites, but we are not opposed. We might appear to be different, but we are not separate”. This remark by author and poet Brian Thompson aptly captures our lives as Harris Memorial College students. We come from different parts of the Philippines, grew up in various cultures, and are now striving to live together in a dormitory while studying. But is it really possible to live together amidst differences while carrying the culture that we grew up with?                           Most students are to be deaconesses and home missioners. They are lay people who have had professional training and have been moved by the Holy Spirit to dedicate their life to serving others in a way that reflects Christ under the direction of the church (Paragraph 1913. 2, United Methodist Church Book of Discipline). Future deaconesses and home missionaries are ...

 Psalm 111:10 (NRSV) "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding.His praise endures forever." When we pay attention to who God is and submit our will to His, we will be reminded that God deserves all the glory. This verse keeps my feet touching the ground. All that we have are from God. There comes a point in my life that I felt entitled of something which I should not be. Through this verse, I realized that in every victory, every blessing, and every good thing we must acknowledge God. We should always give the credit to God. The more we fear the Lord and ackowledge Him, the more we see things according to His perspective. Also, we will learn and understand why various things are happening. Lord, you are the Most High, teach me your ways and guide me throughout this life. In Jesus' Namen. Amen.

 Colosas 3:1  "Yamang binuhay kayong muli na kasama ni Cristo, ituon ninyo ang inyong pag-iisip sa mga bagay na nasa langit na kinaroroonan ni Cristo, na nakaupo sa kanan ng Diyos." Anong ang mga dapat na nating talikuran bilang binuhay ni Cristo? 1. Kaya't patayin na ninyo ang mga pagnanasang makamundo: ang pakikiapid, karumihan, mahalay na simbuyo ng damdamin, masamang pagnanasa, at ang kasakiman na isang uri ng pagsamba sa diyus-diyosan (Colosas 3:5) 2. Ngunit ngayon, itakwil na ninyo ang lahat ng galit, poot, at sama ng loob. Iwasan na ninyo ang panlalait at malaswang pananalita (Colosas 3:8). 3.Huwag kayong magsisinungaling sa isa't isa, sapagkat hinubad na ninyo ang dati ninyong pagkatao, pati ang mga gawa nito (Colosas 3:9) Ano ang dapat nating gawin bilang binuhay muli na kasama ni Cristo? "Isinuot ninyo ang bagong pagkatao na patuloy na nababago at nagiging kalarawan ng Diyos na lumikha sa inyo, upang lalo ninyo siyang makilala" (Colosas 3:10).  Hin...

Title: I Still Believe Scripture: Proverbs 16:1 The plans of the mind belong to mortals, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD. Proverbs 16:9 The human mind plans the way,     but the Lord directs the steps. Hello, how have you been? Kumusta? Tonight, I unexpectedly watched a movie and its title is I Still Believe. This movie is based on the true story of an American singer and his faithful wife who died of cancer. I can relate to the movie because in the last two months my sister passed away because of her heart and skin disease.  Just like how the married couple in the movie keep their faith in God so as our family, until my sister's last breath, prayed for healing and God's will. My sister was in great pain. I saw her and it hurt me so much. I prayed to God. I prayed to God to heal my sister, I asked for a miracle. God has extended my sister's life for a week.  But not a single word did she say she's going to die. She said , "laban lang tiwala lang....
