There are so many things na nangyayari sa mundo ngayon, especially sa bansa natin. People are dying due to Coronavirus or issues related to COVID. Issues about our Government, issues pa sa maraming bagay. And when you think about it, medyo nakaka-stress talaga siya. Lalo na sa Social Media, sobrang toxic din sinasabi ng mga tao. Imbes na magbigay kaalaman at buhay sa mga nawawalan ng pag-asa, sila pa ang gumagawa ng paraan para mawala sa landas ang iba. I know many of us are really worried and anxious right now. If feels like walang peace sa mundo ngayon. It feels like troubled ang maraming tao about sa life nila. Pero let me remind you na kahit hindi okay ang mga nangyayari, God is still in control. Sometimes, nakafocus tayo sa mga bagay na hindi okay kaya nakakalimutan natin maging grateful sa mga ginagawa ni Lord. The fact that we are still alive right now, is a blessing. The fact that we are safe, may kinakain tayo, may shelter tayo, is a great blessing from God. And madalas sa prayer pa natin, we are questioning God kung bakit nangyayari ang mga bagay na 'to. I just want to remind you that everything happens for a reason kahit hindi man natin naiintindihan ang rason, and everything works together for good to those who love God. What's God promises to us? When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. (Isaih 43:2). You will see a lot of God's promises that He will be with us. Kahit ano man ang nangyayari, even sa worst moment ng buhay natin, kasama natin si Lord. Faith is not asking God to give us answers sa mga nangyayari ngayon, but faith is trusting God kahit na hindi okay ang mga nangyayari. "God, I will trust You. I know You are sovereign, I know You are in control. Kung ano man nangyayari ngayon, we know that you have a greater purpose on this pandemic. Let your will be done, and not ours."
