Wake up Philippine Islands

After the earthquake in Bohol and Cebu, the super typhoon of the world, typhoon Yolanda, hit our beloved country, the Philippines. Almost 3/4 of whole Visayas has washed out in the map. Hundreds of people died and thousands lost their home (official government figures  as of 6:00 am of November 11, 2013 click here), asking for food and water. My heart is tearing down when I watched the news report. I saw my kababayans crying, begging and asking for help.

Visayan people thought that that time is the end of the world. They totally surrendered their lives to God. It only shows that our biggest help is in the only one who made us. Our hope, our trust is in God. Only God is in control of everything.

"BE STILL AND KNOW I AM GOD."   GOD LOVES THE PHILIPPINES. GOD LOVES THE FILIPINO PEOPLE!

I remembered the verse written in our Philippine money, "PINAGPALA ANG BAYAN NA ANG DIYOS AY ANG PANGINOON."  We are blessed because we are loved by God. Our country is dedicated to God alone.

Again, we are loved by Him. He wants us to love him just as he loved us.

God has his own telephone number, Jeremiah 33:3 say “Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.”  He will heal the broken heart and crushed in spirit.

WAKE UP PHILIPPINES! THIS IS YOUR TIME!  "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you".

    Philippines is a nation of overcomers, we'll surely pass through this! My heart goes out for those who are affected. The good Lord comfort you.

    No matter how much falls on us, we keep plowing ahead and that’s the only way to keep the roads clear. That’s one of the attributes of the Filipinos, we have the ability to bounce back against life’s challenges. Rise up, stand up, and walk through our destiny! God is Adonai over Philippines. He is the God our Maker who gives us song in the night!
