Pain gives us depth

 


We don't want pain. But if we are honest, it is under pressure testing of pain and failures that we discover the stuff we are made of. We achieved growth when we come to the end of ourselves and we learned to trust God for all things. 

Yes it is painful. But it can also be edifying. Pain is the best pedagogue. Without realizing and accepting our own limitations and embracing God's power and grace, we won't grow to become the person God wanted us to be. 

Athletes can practice their combinations and bag work all day. But without sparring and actual competition, there's no way to know what he can actually do.

The same things happens in our life. We won't learn grace if we never actually step into the arena called life, experienced getting licked and depending on God's grace to remain standing. If the only thing we know is prosperity and success, we'll become complacent and weak. More importantly we will never know God's resurrection power

It is only the believer who have come into the conclusion that only God is his salvation who will know what real power means. We are weak and it is in this weakness that God's power is revealed. 

I am thankful for the good things in life. I must be equally grateful for the pain. Both are tools for God to edify us. 

Manatiling nakapokus sa biyaya. Huwag ninyong hayaang nakawin ng mga huwad na guro ang inyong karapatang mag-isip ng doktrina. 

(Kung gusto ninyo ng karagdagang impormasyon, bisitahin ninyo kami. May pagtitipon kami sa Dahat, kada Linggo, kada 1:00-3:00 pm. Sana manampalataya kayo at kita-kita tayo.

Isang mahalagang paalala: ang mga blogs na ito ay personal kong opinyon at eksposisyon; hindi ito opisyal na pananaw ng Partido Christian Bible Church. Kung nais ninyong malaman ang kanilang opisyal na posisyun, magtanong kayo sa mga matanda ng simbahan. Ang Nieto Bible Page ay isang hiwalay na ministri mula sa PCBC at independiyente rito. Nakikipagtipon ako sa PCBC, pero may personal akong kumbiksiyon sa mga bagay. Bagama't miyembro (muli) ako ng teaching and ruling leadership ng PCBC, anumang mabasa ninyo rito ay hiwalay sa kanila. Anumang nasusulat ay aking pananagutan. 

Kung nakatulong sa inyo ang mga blogs na ito, mangyaring pasubscribe at pashare sa iba. Ibahagi natin at ikalat ang mga Salita ni Cristo at ang libreng biyaya ng Diyos sa lahat ng dakong Filipino ay lenggwahe. Salamat po.)
