God's Secret Giver


Doing Good to Please God
Read: Matthew 6 : 1 - 6
"But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed  may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly."

"But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door to pray, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly."

God's Salt and Light
We are to do good to other people because as God's salt and light to the darkened world, we must illuminate God's grace and mercy for people to see, but in the same manner, when we do good things to other people we must not do them with a desire to be seen and admired, we are to do these things in private. Because God who sees what we do in private, sees and knows what we do and will reward us accordingly.

Unexpected Team Members


Beyond the Boundaries
ACTS 10:9-16 NIV
"About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners. It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air. Then a voice told him, "Get up, Peter, kill and eat.""Surely not, Lord!" Peter replied. "I have never eaten anything impure or unclean." The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made clean." This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven."

Unexpected Team Members

Didn't we, at one time,  tried to keep something worth sharing within only our immediate circle of trust? Have we ever tried, at one time, refuse to share something good outside our boundaries?

Knowing Your Purpose

"For I am the Lord your God, who stirs up the sea, causing its waves to roar. My name is the Lord of Heaven's Armies and I have put my words in your mouth and hidden you safely in my hand. I stretch out the sky likle a canopy and laid the foundations of the earth. I am the one who says to Israel, 'You are my people!'" - ISAIAH 51:15-16

We are here for a purpose. We are made the way we are with a purpose in God's mind. It is our job to discover this purpose and find out the reason behind our existence and part of discovering our purpose we must discover our strengths, our talents and our abilities.

God has a specific, unique and distinct plan for our lives. God, who have carefully design and created the complexities of universe, is the same God who have breathed His Spirit in you to fulfill a purpose.

We are created with a special skills set unique to us to fit perfectly in His grand design. We are not here by accident.

Have you ever taken the time to discover your strengths? your skills? and your talents? As soon as we discover our strengths, developed our skills and enhance our talents we also discover our purpose in life, then as we discover our purpose in life we developed a passion for life, we have a renewed outlook, new persepective and new joy in living.

Take time to discover your talents, be encouraged, we are created the way we are with a purpose in God's mind.

Community Service

ALS (Alternative Learning System) is one of our ministry that provides opportunites to practice Shepherds and Stewards principles.

Last April 13, 2012, we conduct community service at one of the Learning Centers that we support. In cooperation with the Brgy.149 Baseco Compound local government unit and LALAF (Life and Livelihood Assistance Foundation) we were able to teach, model and mentor social responsibility to our learners by doing clean up campaign on their bayside.
