WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT

Worry-Free LivingPtr. Agnes Tesoro Uganap

Year after year, a lot of things are changing. This year 2020, we have a lot

of things to do and to achieve in life. In this world, many things are uncertain and people worry about these things in life, while others are carefully laying down their plans to make it through. Nevertheless, worry begins in the mind - we can choose the right thoughts and cast down wrong ones in order to have a right perspective that leads to right living by the grace of God. 1 Peter 5:7, “Cast all your worries (anxieties) to the Lord because He cares for you.” To have a wor-ry-free living, give a careful thought of His Word and what He said in Matthew 6:26, “are you not valuable than they?” We

are God’s children and we are loved and cared for by Him and He will provide all our needs. Always look above focusing our faith to Him because:• Your Heavenly Father knows

everything.• While you’ve been worrying,

God has been working and aware and active.

• Don’t act like a faithless one.• Worry spoils your testimony

and others observe your faith.Live one day at a time. Stop worrying because it won’t help you. Stop being anxious, but in prayer and supplication let your prayer request be made known to God and the peace of God will guard your heart and mind (Philippians 4:6-7).

Matthew 6:25-26, “...do not woory about your life... look at the birds... Are you not of more value than they”

Why worry when you can pray?

who mocked and crucified Him. Even then, He asked for the will of the Father to be done. He saw the suffering. He saw the separation. But He also saw the salvation of the world and His ultimate victory. And so He was willing to give it all for His glory and for us. With or without people around you, God is with you. He is Em-manuel. His love will compel you to do good. Because we see His goodness and holiness, we are compelled to live the same way. And in times when

we lose our way and become unfaithful, He remains true to His character, always faithful no matter what. In your own simple way, share Him with others as well. Tell others that He never leaves nor takes us for granted. He is a God who never changes. Yesterday, today and forever, He remains the same. This is not the time to turn away but to turn to Him and serve Him with all that we can give. Be passionate in the works for the Kingdom and let us all fix our mind and hearts to Christ!

Christmas, everyone is so joyous and spreading cheer.

Yes, it’s the build-up, where everyone is having a festive and fellowship. We glorify the Lord God

for the life of Ptr. Nilda De Guzman, who shared a wonderful message in our Christmas Service and Thanksgiving. We are reminded again of the gift given by God to us. A gift

that is beyond happiness, beyond gathering, beyond celebration and beyond words. His Name is Jesus. Thus, “A Gift Beyond De-scription” (2 Cor. 9:15).
