“To everything and to everyone there is a time appointed.” I think that statement had really shocked me—truly if we know the appointed time, then we won’t fret but we will prepare and do well in advance. What would happen if everyone knows the time that their loved ones would depart? Then they would all do what they can to be around them before that time comes. Likewise, what would happen if we know what time we are supposed to receive and get an employment?
Then we won’t be losing... Continue reading ...
Thieves and robbers
Sometimes we often think that God is like a cosmic KJ, that He is really after our money, and so we don’t really give Him the tithes, nor really trust Him in His word to test Him. In spite of the many exhortations that we hear and the testimonies of blessings from many other Christians, there are many rebels who don’t really trust God of their money. They think it as theirs, a product of their hardships and efforts. As Moses had argued before the Israelites, don’t ever think that it was... Continue reading ...
Access granted
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. Matthew 27:50-51
The greatest benefit of the cross is that it restored us to a relationship with our Maker. Through the blood of Jesus Christ that was shed on the Cross we have been granted free access to His grace. Through the blood of Jesus we have become children of royalty! Through the blood of Jesus we... Continue reading ...

Most of the passengers complained that the crew failed to give evacuation notice until the ship was already dangerously tilted so that even lowering the lifeboats were dangerous. Most of the passengers aboard were quickly evacuated but some 40 went missing. Sometimes an event like this can struck a similar chord that... Continue reading ...
Rejection and God’s Remedy
What is rejection and how can we remedy it? Sometimes in order to understand the concept of a word, we need to understand it’s opposite. The opposite of rejection is acceptance and a beautiful picture of acceptance is being honored in a banquet together with a king or a very important host. Another definition of rejection is to be denied access, to be denied fellowship, love or honor. The deepest wound one can receive is to actually be rejected, and there is a corresponding parallel between... Continue reading ...

Addressing calamities and vulnerabilities
Edison Macusi
Today the term most abused is climate change. Every time there is a disaster somewhere in the world, people in authority or even those with little knowledge always claim and quickly run to this term. When the disaster struck Cagayan De Oro, Iligan City and Dumaguete City down South in Mindanao, and the Visayas, people were quick to say that it was climate change.
However, the real culprit and the real story behind this destruction was m... Continue reading ...
Trusting God in this season
Celebrating New Year always evokes in us a new hope and a new beginning. Hope is sorely needed in a world that is greatly shaken, in a world that is currently in recession, experiencing earthquakes, political turmoil, unrest and floods. I believe that we have come to a juncture in time when everything that will be shaken will be shaken. Paul writes about this , “See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much ... Continue reading ...
