When I left the Philippines, the Word of God that I carry in my heart is the passage of 2 Corinthians 12:9 “my grace is enough for you, for my power is greatest when you are weak.” I came across to this passage when I was reading the encyclical of Pope Francis Evangelii Gaudium as it says in this document …. “While painfully aware of our own frailties, we have to march on without giving in keeping in mind what the Lord said to Saint Paul: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Christian triumph is always a cross….” I carry these words in my heart for I know it will not be an easy mission ahead and yet I am confident that God will always be with me. Give Your Best So There’s No Regrets Life for me is like a song where there are high and low notes. There are times that you will feel very high because of happiness and also there are times that you will feel low that everything seems wrong: you will feel helpless and you will lose your enthusiasm. I know many of us encounter this situation like I do.
Something NewLife is about experiences, there are times that our heart leap so high because of happiness and there are also times that we feel sad and miserable but one thing I believe is clear no matter what happens we must strive to continue to live and to still give our best.
