God's Note

Light

Once upon a time , the earth was full of darkness . So as our life .

And God said, ''Let there be light,'' and there was light.

Genesis 1:3

In the scripture , sinabi ni God .. ''Let there be light !'' and there was light .

Light represented the life , our life .

When we were on our mother's womb , darkness was surrounding us . BUT ! nung lumabas na tayo sa tyan ng nanay natin , Let there be light ! Sinalubong tayo ng liwanag ..

Our problems , anxieties , fears and everything blocks the light in our heart . People who have hatred , lust , etc. have a black heart .

Black Heart ~~ Meron neto ang mga taong may galit sa kanilang puso . Darkness rule over them .

WHY ?? Its because they don't have Jesus in their heart , they don't believe in Him and they dont want to accept Him .

Kung mapapansin nyo yung mga unbelievers .. ang mga buhay nila .. puno ng paghihinagpis . Yung burden , palaki ng palaki . Di sila marunong magpatawad at humingi ng tawad .. Ma~pride sila . Di marunong mamigay . Ginagawa nilang sandalan ang mga bad friends ~ alcohol , drugs . And worst .. Suicide . Dahil sa tingin nila , ito ang makakapag palaya sa worries and problems nila . But they're wrong . Lalo lang nito pinapaitim ang puso nila . because the evil is controlling them .

But, if you have JESUS in your life, everything will fall into place .. You will have everything. Because JESUS is our Everything. He is our light. He gives us White Heart.

White Heart ~~full of joy, love, hope,peace,camaraderie and Jesus.

I have a question..

Where is Jesus ??

Jesus is in front of our heart, knocking endlessly until we open up our heart. Pero, panu natin mapapapasok si God sa ating puso kung marumi ang puso natin(black heart)??

You know what ? God wants to make our heart his home. At wala naman sigurong taong gustong manirahan sa maruming tahanan , magulo at puno ng kadiliman diba ?

Kaya, this time .. Let's begin the general cleaning of our heart in order for us to have a white heart, and for God to be able for him to live inside us.

•First .. we pray.

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful

Colossians 4:2 [NIV]

How to pray ?? We do the A.C.T.S.

A~Adoration..

Let's give praise to God. Even by just simply singing a gospel song as long as you sing with all your heart, God will listen to you.

C~Confession

You ask God for forgiveness. Lahat ng kasalanan mo, great or small, confess it to God. Wag ka mahiya kay God na sabihin lahat ng nagawa mong mali. First and foremost, God knows everything that you did. He's just waiting for you to repent. Ask for forgiveness first to clean those dust in your heart.

T~Thanksgiving

Give thanks to God, for giving you another day, for breathing your nostrils everyday, for giving you time to bond with your family one more time, for allowing you to go to school safe, for providing you food, financial and everything. And for giving you another chance to change your old,bad self. And lastly,

S~supplication

These are your prayer requests. Example. ''Lord sana po maunawaan ko po ang gustong ipahatid ni Eniam Rahs kasi ang labo po nya.'' okaya

''Lord, sana po pumasa na ko sa math.''

Ask everything to the Lord and he will give it to you. Di man agad agad, dahil si God, he's giving it to you to the right time. Pero syempre, wag lang nating iasa lahat kay God, kelangan kumilos din tayo.

•Next.. Have a heart to heart talk with God.

Cast all you anxiety on him because he cares for you.

1Peter 5:7

You can do this through prayer. At the end of the day before you sleep, makipag usap ka kay God. God is our friend, ikwento mo lahat ng nangyari sa buong araw mo , yung mga worries mo .. na isa rin sa mga nagpapadumi ng puso natin. Pack your worries up, put it in a trash bin and let God throw it away. Yung mga problema mo sabihin mo kay God and he will wash it away.

And lastly ..

• Do everything in love.

1 Corinthians 16:14

As i said a while ago, white heart is full of love. So we must do everything in love.

Reading bible and praying everyday maintains our hearts clean. But its not enough if you're not attending church.

My churchmate once said that..

''Alam mo ba .. Pag hindi umaattend ng church ng kahit isang beses ay parang di naligo ng isang buong linggo.''

Lets compare our hearts to our house.

Everyday you are sweeping the floor, pinupunasan mo yung mga t.v dvd, etc. Is like praying everyday, you're putting away dirt inside you to keep clean.

But, once a week di ka nag ge-general cleaning. Panu mo malilinisan yung mga duming naipit sa mga singit singit ?? Mag tapon ng mga abubot o di na kailangang gamit ??

Same as attending worship every Sunday, listening to the word of God, recieving blessings and revival. Putting away the trash from our heart na naipon natin for the whole week. Kaya kung mapapansin nyo, ang sarap ng feeling pag nagsisimba ka, yung tipoNg gumaan ang pakiramdam mo dahil nawala na yung burden at si God nalang ang laman ng puso mo.

Now, your heart is clean. Open up the door and let God enter your heart. At, wag na wag nyo na syang palalabasin .

Now that you have a white heart, you're life is also enlighten.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light.

Ephesians 5:8

Friend ! Now that you recieve the light, wag mo itong hayaang mapundi, charge lang ng charge.. through prayer.

And also , now you are the light, be the light to your friend's dark life. Encourage him/her to step with you in the light of the Lord.

''LET THERE BE LIGHT !''

P.S.

Don't forget to clean your heart , friend :)
