Recently, we have had sad events. We give our condolences to the Bigornia and Ringor families, who had one of their loved ones went ahead and meet our Creator. I take this opportunity to thank God as well, for sparing my father, giving him a second chance (as my father repeatedly stated to his visitors).
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
Reminiscing the past, I remember the others that have already went ahead of us, Men and Women of Faith, I believe. I remember Ptr. Dawal, Ptr. Nick, and Auntie Aning; And, I believe they have faithfully served God. Perhaps just wanting to remind us of the life they have shown and the testimony that gives glory to God. I wonder, as generations go stranger by the days, will God find us faithful as well?
Through out the confusion, diversion, tragedy, corruption, etc., shall Christians strive for the Glory of God? Will Christians continue to be faithfully serving? Continue to become light of this darkened world?
Philippians 2
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Whereby, I continue to challenge Christians to let your light shine and in due time, our God shall state upon us, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.”
