A Different Spirit
Numbers 14:24
Loving God (truly) means keeping His commandments, and his commandments (what to do) are not burdensome (oppressive, causing difficulty)!
I John 5:3
As a Loving Shepherd, everything the Lord does for us is for our good, His commandments.
God commandments is for our good- to position us for greater blessing and be a blessing.
When we submit and obey the Lord’s loving authority, lean on His wisdom, and when we don’t act presumptuously and irresponsibly, we can be safe, be protected and preserved.
Let us not test the Lord by making irresponsible and unwise decisions that ignore the written Word of God or the Godly counsel spoken to us.
As a believer in Jesus we don’t do good works to become righteous.
You are instantaneously and perfectly righteous when you believe in Christ Jesus- you’re one in Him.
Your holiness is an on ongoing process in your growth in Christ.
Hebrews 10:14
To be made new in the attitude of your minds and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Ephesians 4:23-24
Like Father, like sons.
1 John 4:17
The Lord does not demand obedience, but He loves it when everything we do for Him, we do it within the cycle of love and faith.
Galatian 5:6
When we obey and honor the Lord out of love for Him, and not of slavish fear, our lives would become so much different that the world- that is holiness.
Do everything without grumbling or arguing.
Philippians 2:14
Do not slander one another.
James 4:11
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances;
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Bear one another’s burdens,
Galatians 6:2
When we honor the Lord in all of our ways, we will be blessed and be a blessing, God is glorified in us, then we can have an impact to the world.
And Caleb did so even when he was sorely outnumbered 10 to 2.
He never murmured or complained unlike the other spies for he believe God is on his side.
Murmuring or grumbling is birthed out of unbelief.
It is having a negative and wrong opinion of God.
“But my servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit and has followed me fully (passionately), I will bring into the land into which he went, and his descendants shall possess it.
Numbers 14:24
Caleb said to Joshua, “Remember what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about you and me when we were at Kadesh-barnea. I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh Barnea to explore the land. And I brought him back a report according to my convictions.
Joshua 14:6-7
Caleb was different from his peers (the 10 other spies) in that he had a heart to follow the Lord.
He honor God and the authority He placed him under.
Yes, there will be times it might feel daunting to stand apart from the “safety” of the popular opinion or majority.
There will be times it might take courage to make a stand to follow the Lord in the face of peer pressure and society’s religious ideals and opinions.
At the end of the day, Caleb’s story is less about Caleb and more about the God whom Caleb knew.
That God is the game changer.
That God is the giant slayer.
That God is the miracle worker.
That God is the faith giver and way maker.
That God is the promise keeper.
And that’s why Caleb knew deep down in his gut that with the Lord on his side, he couldn’t lose.
So in confidence Caleb told Moses:
“Give me this mountain. . . for you heard in that day how the Anakim (giants) were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. (It may be) Since the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to drive them out as the Lord sai.”
Joshua 14:12
When Caleb saw his mountain (his inheritance), he saw the giants in it but he also saw that it had giant-size harvests- clusters of grapes so huge and heavy that a single cluster had to be carried on a pole.
Caleb didn’t see the giant-populated mountain as a problem. He saw it as his portion.
All at 85 years old, when his natural strength and vigor were supposed to have run dry.
You maybe facing overwhelming odds but when you do stand on God’s Word, the Lord will stand up for you like He did for Caleb and bring you to His place of promise and provision.
In Christ, we are completely forgiven.
You do not have to try to get forgiveness.

Face-value, earthly things will never hold a substantial amount of value. We live in a world that is more concerned about how people look, how much money they have, and the kinds of material goods they possess. All of these things will fade away with time. The thing that will remain in people's minds for a very long time will be our characters and the virtues we possess. Men and women of God need to ensure that their characters and their virtues are godly.
Know God personally. God has planned a love story for you. Begin your special relationship with Him today. ❤️

Construction worker, a Hero!
Who are construction workers? Sila ang mga taong kasama sa gumagawa ng mga gusali tulad ng paaralan na kung saan nag-aaral ang mga bata, bahay natin kung saan tayo nakatira, mall kung saan namimili tayo ng ating wants and needs, simbahan na kung saan dito natin pinipraise at ewoworship si God at marami pang ibang mga bagay o estruktura na kabilang ang mga construction workers.
Sa sarili nilang pamilya sila din ay BAYANI. Sa kanilang pagtatrabaho maulan man o maaraw, tulo ng sipon at pawis magkasabay para may ipambubuhay sa pamilya. Kahit langhap nila minsan ay nakakasama na sa kanilang katawan tulad ng pintura at mga alikabok, tuloy pa rin sa buhay. Para sa pag- aaral ng mga anak at sa kinabukasan ng pamilya.
Di natin alam ang buhay ng isang construction worker. Minsan mapalad minsan hindi. Dahil ilan sa kanila nadidigrasya. Di natin hawak ang buhay natin.
Ngayong panahon ng pandemic karamihan ng tao ay naghihirap. May mga mag- aaral ngayon na nagtatrabaho na bilang isang construction worker. Sa umaga nagtatrabaho at sa gabi naman nag- aaral at sinasagutan ang modules.
Di madali ang buhay ng isang construction worker.
Again! You are called a HERO not because you are smart and you have a lot of contribution to our country. You are called a HERO because you did your best to satisfy the needs of your family in a good way. GOOD JOB! MAY GOD WILL BLESS YOU MORE, HUNDRED FOLDS.❤️❤️

Showing Compassion
Showing Compassion
This is a story of a bully person. And how he change his life.
When he was in middle school, there was a boy that was much bigger than everyone else, and wow, he was a bully! He would really pick on other students and even hurt them, but he was so big nobody dared to stand up to him. He was equally as terrible to teachers, but I remember after school one day I noticed him red in the face, wiping tears from his eyes. Although he was so big, when he broke down he was like anyone else. That student was awful in my teacher's class, but my teacher put his arm around him, comforted him, and took him into his office so that other people could not see. After that, the student behaved quite well in that class, although I wish I could say the same about other classes!
My teacher's compassion to a person that had constantly troubled him humbled the terrible student. The student was used to being met by scorn, at school and most likely at home, and that was why he acted the way that he did. In these verses, Elisha shows compassion to the soldiers that have been sent to find him and most likely to kill him and the king of Israel. His compassion turns a foe into a friend, an enemy into an ally. Just like the student and the teacher, a show of compassion and love can turn hate into love. Christ teaches us to turn the other cheek (Matthew 5:39), and that is what Elisha does in these verses. How often do we actually do it?
With God nothing is impossible.
Your prayers will be answered greatly.❤️

We have God, as our Father, who is able to provide for us with ease. This is why we do not panic where troubling situations come. Think of all the troubling situations that have come your way. They are all in the past now. This shows you that God will always settle your situations, no matter what. Your only focus should be trusting in God. Nothing else.
My friend, if you are being tormented by wrong or
negative thoughts in your mind, you need the truth of God’s
Word to uproot them. Keep meditating on God’s Word and
promises to you. As you do, the negative, defeatist thoughts
that have kept you in fear and anxiety will be replaced with
God’s good thoughts to bless you with peace and wholeness
in every area of your life. Let His Word give you a vision of a
bright future full of hope and good things!
Today’s Thought:
It takes a thought based on God’s Word to heal a negative or
defeatist thought.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the
LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future
and a hope.
JEREMIAH 29:11
Shepherd
The way out of constant worrying is not a matter of just thinking positively; it’s birthed out of knowing you have a personal and intimate relationship with a loving Savior who watches over your needs and tends to you as a loving Shepherd. The more strongly you believe that He is taking care of you, the more it will change your thoughts and
feelings, and the less you will fall victim to unhealthy emotions and behaviors.
Today, if you need freedom from a bad situation, see
**Jesus, your good Shepherd, leading you out of it by His Word**
that brings life and illumination. The psalmist says it this way: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” ****(Ps. 119:105****). In The Message translation, it says, “By your words I can see where I’m going; they throw a beam of light on my dark path.”
My friend, the Lord wants to throw a beam of light on
your path today. Whatever you are struggling with presently,
no matter how insurmountable your challenges appear, when
you start believing right, things are going to start turning
around for your good!
***Today’s Thought:***
I can live life confident and at peace because Jesus, my strong and able Shepherd, is watching over me.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
****PSALM 23:1–4****
Have a Blessed Morning Everyone❤️❤️
Hate no more and release forgiveness as God forgave us. Love one another, He who loved the undeserving is a blessing for God. Remember that God forgave us even though we are not deserving. Do it for the Glory of God cuz as Jesus love and forgive the undeserving, so are we in this world.
His Love
Jesus is saying the same thing to you today: If you only
knew who it is who comes to you in your darkest and weakest moments. If you only knew this gift of God who will never leave you nor forsake you, who has gone before you and who comes to you in the midst of your storms. If you only knew the One who reaches out to you even when you have failed and who doesn’t hold your past mistakes or present failures against you.
Beloved, if you only knew this gift of God who offers the
living water of His unconditional, endless love to you and you
drink of that love, you will never thirst again. You won’t need
to look for love or acceptance in all the wrong places, have
your heart broken and fearful about the future, and have your
life derailed. You can wake up with a fresh expectation of good every day.
Today’s Thought:
Jesus offers me the living water of His unconditional, endless love today. My life will never be the same again when I personally experience His love!
“If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are
speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living
water.… Anyone who drinks this water [from the well] will
soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I
give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling
spring within them, giving them eternal life.”
JOHN 4:10, 13–14 NLT
God of Infinite Grace
My friend, I want you to know today that God is a God of
infinite grace. He is repugnant to the “religious,” but gracious
and irresistible to those who are hurting.
No matter what you are going through today, whatever
addictions may be binding you, right believing can and will set
you free. Start with believing this powerful truth:
God is a God of grace and forgiveness. He loves you very much, and He doesn’t hold
your mistakes against you.
Don’t let the mistakes you have made in the past hold you
back from reaching out to God and receiving His forgiveness
for all your failures. Begin to believe right about the Lord,
believe right about His heart and love for you, and your entire
life will be transformed. Right believing always leads to right
living!
Today’s Thought:
God is a God of grace and forgiveness. He loves you very much
and doesn’t hold your mistakes against you.
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we
may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
HEBREWS 4:16
All About Jesus
Do you have a past that you are ashamed of? Are you
struggling to overcome something that you know is destroying
you? Do you feel all alone and that no one understands the
pain you are going through?
I want you to know that Jesus hasn’t changed.As He was
for the Samaritan woman, the loving Savior is still your very
present help in your time of need (see Ps. 46:1). He knows the
suffering, shame, and struggles you are going through right
now. And even if what you are going through is a
consequence of bad life choices and mistakes of your own
doing, He doesn’t abandon and forsake you. No—a thousand
times, no! He goes out of the way to have a personal
appointment with you, to restore and rescue you. The fact that
you are reading this right now is a confirmation that Jesus is
reaching out to you with His love, grace, and forgiveness.
Talk to Him as the woman did. Taste and touch His grace
and compassion for you as she did. And like her, discover
Jesus’ forgiveness, freedom, and strength to walk into a bright
new future.
Today’s Thought:
Right now, Jesus is reaching out to you with His love, grace,
and forgiveness.
But He needed to go through Samaria. So He came to a city of
Samaria which is called Sychar… Now Jacob’s well was
there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat
thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour. A woman of
Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a
drink.”
JOHN 4:4–7

Being a Preschool Teacher
Hi ! Good day everyone!
I'm about to share my experience as a preschool teacher. This my first time handling preschool. I finished Secondary Education, then here it goes. I was assigned as a preschool teacher. As a beginner, I think you will feel uneasy for that especially we are now in a new normal education. The best learning in preschool happens in a learning-through-play environment.
Is it easy to teach preschool?
For me as a beginner, it is hard. I am used to to teach elementary pupils. So now as a preschool teacher I am teaching 3 years old to 5 years old. At their age they are just more on playing, sleeping, and eating, mostly that's the routine of this children ages 3-5. As expected during discussion they are just keep on playing then after awhile they will listen and suddenly they will just walk out and sometimes they will cry because they're guardian pinched them. So it will happen in this new normal because they're at home.
What are the things to do during classes?
As a teacher, you need more patience to give to your pupils. Preschool teachers have a lots of duties. You need to spend more time and effort. In your visual aids or flashcards make it beautiful that can catch the attention of the pupils. Your classroom it should be filled with student artwork, bright colors, and many more just to catch their attention.
How interesting being a preschool teacher?
At first it was hard . But as the time goes by you will enjoy them. They make you laugh. As a teacher you should do more things, thinking lots of games for them to play so that they will not feel tired and feel comfortable and enjoy. The games it should be related to your lesson, while they are playing they learn something about it. Not only the children will play ,you also as their teacher. If they run , you will run, if they crawl you will crawl also.
Another thing when you are teaching preschool you will become a dancer and a singer 2in1.😂😂 In my 25 years of existence I did not experience to sing in front of many people. But now I develop my talents. 😂😂😂 I am dancerist and singerist. How funny my experience is.😂 Like for example when I let them sing the song "I'm a little teapot". If they dance I will dance also.
I'm a little teapot short and stout
Here Is my handle and here is my spout
When I get all steamed up
Here Me shout
Tip Me over and pour me out.
When I sing and dance with this song I felt uneasy because the parents are there! But when I see the children enjoying I felt overwhelmed. They develop their confidence and to practice their talents as early as now.
I am a good actress also in this. I learned to laugh things that's not funny for me, because if the children are laughing you will laugh also you will join them, go with them. Me , I have a deep voice like a man. When I'm with the children I will change my voice into a cute one.😂 I tried my very best just to make my voice cute. Hahaha.
Being a teacher of a 3 to 5 years children it's a mixed emotions. Sometimes you will feel enjoyed and happy. But most of the times it is more tiring. But it is okay. The most important thing there is you imparted them learnings. You teach them and mold them as a good person.
Do not also forget to give them advices and lessons about life. How to become a better person in the future.
Just correct me if my grammar used are wrong.😉😉
Hope you enjoy reading this and you learned something of it. ❤
A Blessed Sunday everyone!
You dont have to live a life of defeat, a life of emptiness, brokenness because that is not the life Jesus died to give you.
Follow the Lord and choose life!
Hello everyone. How's your day today? Did you enjoy the gift of our Heavenly Father today? Like the gift of life, financial breakthrough, protection of our love ones and increase of wisdom.
We are blessed and highly favored. Let's be thankful to God every single moment of our life. 😊
Have a good day! More power and God bless.❤
