CHAPTER 16
Month of December na ngayon.
Ngayong gabi, nandito ako sa harap ng aking study table at nagbabasa ng Bible. I'm reading right now the book of Matthew chapter six.
"Mag-ingat kayo na huwag gawing pakitang-tao lamang ang inyong pamamahagi sa mga kahabag-habag. Kung magkagayon ay hindi kayo tatanggap ng gantimpala sa inyong Ama sa langit."It's a reminder para sa akin na yung mga ginagawa kong paglilingkod sa Diyos ay hindi ko ginagawa para lamang iimpress ang iba. Hindi ako naglilingkod sa tao, kundi sa Diyos. Sa bawat ginagawa nating mabuti, hindi na kailangan ipagkalat na gumawa tayo ng mabuti sapagkat kung magkaganun, ang gantimpala nati'y magmumula sa tao. Kaya nga mabuti na lang niremind ako ng Lord ngayon.
Kaya nga as much as possible, ayokong masyadong napapansin ako ng mga tao sa mga ginagawa ko. Pero in those situations, we are tested whether we will remain humble or not. At kung matuwa man ang ibang tao sa ating mga ginagawa, it's just an additional reward. Ayokong bumase sa mga tao dahil paano na lang kapag gumagawa ako ng mabuti tapos walang nakakaappreciate, edi panghihinaan ako ng loob. Kaya talaga, the joy of the Lord is my strength. Gagawin ko ito dahil ito ang kalooban ng Diyos.
Kinuha ko ang aking gitara at sinimulang tumugtog.
"Don't wanna go back, Lord
To the way I used to be
The way I used to live
I won't go back, Lord
To the way I used to be
Before you rescued me"
Lord, I just don't want to be the way I used to be. Whenever you're placing me on the platform, I humble myself before you dahil alam kong hindi ko kaya kung ako lang. I acknowledge you, my God in my life. You're the greatest desire of my heart. Nothing else.
"I will not stop
'Til every tribe and nation
Bows before You
I will not stop
'Til they all see your glory
See your glory"
Lord, I will not stop 'til these people see you. Help me to share your words. Right now, I know I can't.
I can't on my own.
"Your fire burns within me
Burn within me with Your fireLift up your eyes to see
The glory of the Lord is on the earth"
Hallelujah! Yes, Lord. Let Your fire burn within me, within us.
We look up to you, that Your glory is within the earth. I know, even if we can't see you Lord, we know You're moving.As I play my guitar, I can't help it but to cry because of God's goodness. He is just so good. Sa bawat pagsasalita ko, sa bawat paglilingkod na ginagawa ko, alam kong si Lord yung kumikilos sa pamamagitan ko. Sapagkat alam ko kung ako lang, mahina ako.
Out of a sudden, I saw a vision. Nakakita ako ng langit na puno ng ulap at nakakita rin ako ng bukas na pinto sa gitna nito.
I was amazed. This is the first time I saw something like this. Hindi lang siya imagination kasi kitang kita ko.
I see heaven invading this place! The place of my ministry! I know it's also an open door of opportunities. God is telling me na malaki pa ang gagawin niya sa buhay ko at ng mga taong nakapaligid sa akin. Hallelujah!
My eyes are full of tears right now. Sa nakaraang mga buwan, marami na siyang ginawa sa buhay ko. At ngayon, alam kong may gagawin pa Siya kahit hindi ko deserve. I don't deserve such love like this. Pero patuloy na pinapadama Niya pa rin.
It's already 10 pm and I need to sleep already. Pero I still can't sleep and my eyes are still full of tears. Para bang ayokong matapos ang gabing ito. In the presence of God, there is really fullness of joy.
My heart is crying for more of you, Jesus.
I want more.
I want more.
