When I Ponder in HIS Love
When I Ponder in HIS Love
"Yet without faith it is impossible to please him: no one draws near to God without first
believing that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him earnestly."
- Hebrews 11,6
-Remove all you worry and be delighted in His words!
God is giving me chance to share the burden of carrying the cross of sins of the world with Jesus
Christ Am I willing??? He is asking me to share the suffering of Christ through living a holy
life, through discipleship, through winning a war against sins.
Oh God, I love you and thank you for the opportunity of life, for letting me share in the suffering
of your beloved Son Jesus Christ. Guide me always and empower me.
Jesus came to the world to lift the dignity of humanity to save us from sinfulness and selfish
desires.
To gave us the meaning of true love.
Jesus came down for Heaven to show to us how much love we can give to others and how much
this body can endure in obeying Godthat we are created for a purpose.. to love, to serve and to
save.
Everyone will be judge and pay according to his debt and on what he has deserved.
God has established all the system in the universe from universal to sub-nucleus level and there
is nothing that is new to His wisdom
God is the source of all wisdom
The fear in God is the beginning of wisdom
All human can do is to search and understand the thoughts, power, wisdom and love of God
which is imbedded in all of His creation from atoms to molecules, to species, to systems, upto
the whole universe
God created man a little lower than angel. Angel is holy, perfect and possesses certain level of
power and He gave them free will.
for I have chosen him to command his sons and his household after him to keep the way of
the Lord by doing what is right and just, so that Yahweh may bring about for Abraham what
he has promised him." Genesis 18:19\
Bless the Lord, my soul; all my being, bless his holy name!
Psalm 103:1
he gives fulfillment to your years, and renews your youth like the eagle's.
Psalm 103:5
As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord pities those who fear him.
Psalm 103:13
Reflections: Dont fear any human being instead fear the God who holds eternity, who holds
your life, who installed the foundations of the earth, who holds all wisdom, infinite in love and
light.
Love human and be humble always.
But the Lord's kindness is forever with those who fear him; so is his justice, for their children's
children, for those who keep his covenant and remember his commands, for those who put
them into practice.

Be thankful and contended with to every gift of God. Theres a lot of good people and righteous
one who do not have what you have right now. July 26, 2013
August 18, 2013 (Reflections from the ReCon August 16-18, 2013)
We cannot trust without loving and we cannot love without trusting! Trust comes with love and
love come with trust.
We cannot win over God. It is always our lost if we will not follow Him and obey Him.
The only way we can show that we return the love we received from God is to Obey Him. To
love Him more than anything and anyone else and to love our neighbor as how Jesus love us.
Pray for the welfare of others!!!
We love because God first loved us.
August 20, 2013 (From Mass and Bible study)
Kapag puno ka ng grasya, malayo ka sa disgrasya
Gods offering of salvation is wider than wide but the gate to it becomes narrow because of the
way we respond. We threat His laws and commandment as a burden and limitations not as true
freedom and love
We cannot buy our way to heaven
Righteousness and Holiness cannot be achieved just by human intellect or by educational
excellence, in fact much of highly educated person tend to be sinner (politicians and lawyers,
etc) but by the grace of God through Jesus Christ.
We cannot buy our way to heaven
The first canonization happens during crucifixion of Jesus Christ when Dimas ask for
forgiveness and accept that Jesus was God and His savior.
In deed the first will be the last and last will be the first .
God is so merciful and gracious.
Then what awaits for those who served Him and leave everything for Him and for the sake of
the Gospel-------------- not just salvation but throne in Heaven with Him.
There are three authors in the Book of prophet Isaiah.
It is not riches or the poorness that will hinder us from our salvation but the way we used it. It
doesnt matter what is our profession, a lawyer is not higher than an engr or a fisherman or a
vendor or a farmer or a president of the Philippines than a Brgy. Tanod. What matters is how
each of everyone of us perform our mission. What kind of president, lawyer, engr, farmer,
fisherman, etc. we are. Are we pleasing to God?
Are we obeying His commandments?
The power of word of God is seen in the transforming lives of the believer and faithful. 1

Where can I run from your Love, If I climb to the Heaven You were there
the Whirlpool galaxy) Psalm 139:7-9
(the X structure in
Jesus said to the man with withered hand Come here in front Luke 6:8
Reflection: God uses weak, humble and obedient man to show his Love and Power. He also
humbles down the proud and hardened heart.
Oh God make me humble, weak and obedient so that only in You I may find strength and put
my confidence. Use me to show you power and love to this sinful world. Amen. Jesus I love
you more than anything else. Make me to love you more than anything else
Victorious through the cross, he stripped the rulers and authorities of their power, humbled them
before the eyes of the whole world and dragged them behind him as prisoners. -Col 2:15
Reflections: All authorities and rulers in the earth was allowed by God and all of them is
answerable to Him from the time of His victory to the cross.

Lord remind me that all the things I do in this world is for Your glory, to express you love
through me, for the good of others and that You are my Big Boss in everything I do. In end
you are my teacher, evaluator, and my everything. October 2, 2013
All things were created by GOD and all things are created good and for good but the devil (the
lies, the pride, the greediness and the selfishness) tainted that goodness with lust and sins.

Whats the worth is this body and life if it will not be used to express the love of God to my
neighbors???
Store up heavenly treasures, the treasures that never rust or never fade
Seek first the kingdom of God and everything shall be provided unto you
Set your heart first on the kingdom and justice of God and all these things will also be given to
you."
- Matthew 6,32-33
October 23, 2013
The most important qualification of a servant of God is faithfulness followed by prudence. God
didnt required us to be very intelligent because He knows all our ways but through faith and
only by faith we can please God
Faithfulness is greater than intelligence.

It is necessary to obey, not through fear but as a matter of conscience. (Rom 13:5)
The one who loves his or her neighbor fulfilled the Law (Rom 13:8).
So love fulfills the whole Law (Rom 13:10).
Put on, rather, the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not be led by the will of the flesh nor follow its
desires (Rom 13:14)..
Blessed is the one who fears the Lord, who greatly delights in his commands (Psalm 112:1).
He has no fear of evil news, for his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord (Psalm 112:7).
Put your confidence in God rather on man. Plan well for your salvation. Be consistent.
Be ready to for Christ. Be ready to leave everything for God.

Wisdom is a spirit, a friend to man, and will not leave the blasphemous unpunished, because
God knows his innermost feelings, truly sees his thoughts and hears what he says. Wisdom 1:6
For God's spirit has filled the whole world and he who holds together all things, knows each
word that is spoken. Wisdom 1:7 ----- Do not fear doing what is right and what is just for He
holds together all things.
Your knowledge leaves me astounded, it is too high for me to reach. Psalm 139:6
13 It was You who formed my inmost part and knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I thank you for these wonders you have done, and my heart praises you for your marvelous
deeds. Psalm 139:13-14
Be careful. If your brother offends you, rebuke him and if he is sorry, forgive him. Luke 17:3
22 They do not know the mysteries of God nor do they hope for the reward of a holy life; they
do not believe that the blameless will be recompensed.
23 Indeed God created man to be immortal in the likeness of his own nature,
24 but the envy of the devil brought death to the world, and those who take his side shall
experience death. Wisdom 2:22-24
Hope in the Lord, the One who holds eternity
20 Many are the troubles of the just, but the Lord delivers them from all.
21 He keeps all their bones intact, and none of them will be broken. Psalm 34
10 So for you. When you have done all that you have been told to do, you must say: 'We are no
more than servants; we have only done our duty.'" Luke 17
Reflections: I should not expect reward for my righteous deeds here on earth for if you Lord are
going to subtract all my evil thought, actions, and words from the righteous thoughts, actions,
and words they may not be enough or may even be negative. But it is your grace and mercy
and love that You make your servant to be called your son and to sit at your table. Oh Lord
how great is your Love and wisdom.
Akala ba natin na ang kabutihan at biyaya ng Diyos sa atin ay dahil sa ating mabubuting gawa?
Hindi, sapagkat kulang na kulang iyon para takipan an ating pagkakasala. Ngunit dahil sa
dakila niyang pag-ibig at habag sa pamamagitan ni Hesukristo ay inari Nya tayong mga anak
upang makaupo sa Kanyang Hapag.

Use the knowledge to achieved and increase wisdom. Pursue wisdom more than knowledge.
Wisdom is a grace from God. Wisdom is a way to holiness.
For the grandeur and beauty of creatures lead us to ponder on their Author, greater and
more magnificent. Wisdom 13:5
November 26, 2013
The Kingdom of God reveals the true nature of human being when It dwells on him.
Its like a seed of mustard and the yeast in the bread.
The Lord chooses His people whom He will reveal His Kingdom and the people must accept it.
Who am I? insignificant (compare to His universe), unfaithful (sinner), weak (in every aspect),
unworthy (I not worthy for Jesus to die for me ), (unworthy for Jesus to came down for me
), temporary/mortal (ill die soon, my physical body), arrogant and idiot (always think that I
command my life that I know almost everything about my life)in spite of this GOD
loves me thought Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

22 Samuel then said,
"Does Yahweh take as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obedience to his
command? Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission better than the fat of rams.
23 Rebellion is like the sin of divination, and stubbornness like holding onto idols. Since you
have rejected the word of Yahweh, he too has rejected you as king."
2/4/14
While Jesus was still speaking, some people arrived from the official's house to inform him,
"Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Master any further?"
36 But Jesus ignored what they said and told the official, "Do not fear, just believe."
Let not our earthly worries not discourage us because we have a power and loving God. There is
hope in Him even to the point of death. May kasabihan na habang buhay may pag-asa pero
sa mga nanampalataya sa Diyos, sa taong ang Diyos lang ang inaasahan, kahit patay kana may
pag-asa kapa. Praise to you oh dear Lord..I love you.
2/5/14 What makes suffering of Jesus the greatest of all is not the physical pain but the
emotional pain he felt out of His greatest love for us.
The sacrifice of taking the form of man and submitting Himself to human as a sacrifice for our
sins makes his sacrifice so great. Furthermore the abandonment of his dear disciples, the
mockery and traitorship of people He just taught and healed. His sentence out of his
innocence.

Mark 6
22 On that occasion the daughter of Herodias came in and danced; and she delighted Herod and
his guests. The king said to the girl, "Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you."
23 And he went so far as to say with many oaths, "I will give you anything you ask, even half
my kingdom."
24 She went out to consult her mother, "What shall I ask for?" The mother replied, "The head of
John the Baptist."
25 The girl hurried to the king and made her request: "I want you to give me the head of John
the Baptist, here and now, on a dish."
26 The king was very displeased, but he would not refuse in front of his guests because of his
oaths.
27 So he sent one of the bodyguards with orders to bring John's head. He went and beheaded
John in prison;
28 then he brought the head on a dish and gave it to the girl. ------------------------------------------------Dont indulged so much with earthly pleasures and dont make promises
Matthew 5
34 But I tell you this: do not take oaths. Do not swear by the heavens, for they are God's
throne,
35 nor by the earth, because it is his footstool, nor by Jerusalem because it is the city of the great
king.
36 Do not even swear by your head, because you cannot make a single hair white or black.
37 Say yes when you mean yes and say no when you mean no. Anything else you say comes
from the devil.

spiritual power
-When we are privileged to see someone take on a great challenge for someone elses sake, isnt
it inspiring? Doesnt our heart warm with appreciation, admiration, and even love? Its why
we cherish the stories of heroism, stories of great rescues, stories of risk-taking, stories of the
long-term dedication of parents who adopt children with handicaps.

- Jesus said to Levi Follow me. And leaving everything behind, he got up and followed him.
Luke 5:27-28
We are all called to follow our Lord Jesus Christ and unless we leave everything behind we
cannot follow Him completely. Leaving everything behind doesnt mean that we leave our
obligation to our family, our community, our beloved brother and sister, our service its
about leaving all of our earthly worries, all our deceit, and all our wrong doings.
Then Levi gave a great banquet for him in his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors and
others were at table with them Luke 5:29 We have to offer to God the greatest banquet
our greatest achievement
- God send down His only begotten Son Jesus Christ for all of us, especially to those who are
poor in spirit.
- Just like any building material, we are subjected to various tests and trials in life for us to see
our true purpose in this earth a mission for our Father.

Walang kabuluhan ang anu mang bagay kung liban na lamang kung dahilan ng pag-iral nito ay
PAG-ibig.
Ang pag-ibig ang dahilan ng pagpapatuloy ng pag-iral ng buhay at lahat ng bagay, kaya naman,
ang pag-ibig ang pinaka-ugat na dahilan ng kaganapan ng lahat ng bagay.
At ang pag-ibig ay nagbubuhat sa Diyos. Ang pinakamataas ng pag-ibig ay ang Diyos.

The purpose of this life is to love, to cherish each moment and to ponder the each moment of
love of our life, to see all things in the context of love, to share life and time, to find each other,
to serve each other and to love each other and finally to go back to God.
Ang pinaka-dakila sa lahat ay ang pag-ibig, ang pag-ibig ng Diyos na Siya na rin mismo.

Envy to one another is a proof that we are still prisoners of flesh and we are still captives of this
world. We are all but workers and field of God. We dont serve and work for anybody but for
God alone.
Lord cast out the devil spirit within me.. I beg you my Father through your Son our Lord Jesus
Christ in unity of the Holy Spirit.
If it wasnt about Jesus, then its defintely not about you or me, or anyone else. Jesus had the
right to make it all about Himself, but He chose to lay it aside in exchange for what really
mattered the glory of His Father. - Mike Vias
Reflection: Who, though He was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God
something to be grasped. Rather, he emptied himself taking the form of a slave coming in human
likeness; and found human in appearance, He humbled himself, becoming obedient to death,
even death on a cross. (Philippians 2:6-8)

Our duty in these times is to look to Christ and ask Him to help us discern and to help make the
choice.
In this crazy world of instant gratification and excess, how often do we search for more more
knowledge, more power, more things, and more pleasure? How often do we seek fulfillment
through things?

Luke 24:41
In their joy they didn't dare believe and were still astonished. So he said to them, "Have you
anything to eat?"
When we cannot comprehend the will and thought of God, when we are overwhelm with our
fear and confusion, when we are losing our faith to Him because of our limited understanding
God is asking us to give in to Him, He is asking from us to offer what is left from usand He
will reveal Himself to us.
Joy and thanksgiving in the midst of everything and anything this is the attitude that God want
us to have and this is only possible if we (strive to/have) perfect and complete faith, hope and
love.

I am Gods wheat and shall be ground by the teeth of wild animals. Let me be food for the wild
beasts, for they are my way to God. Pray to Christ for me that the animals will be the means of
making me a sacrificial victim for God. I prefer death in Christ Jesus to power over the farthest
limits of the earth. He who died in place of us is the one object of my quest. He who rose for
our sakes is my one desire. Give me the privilege of imitating the passion of my God. If you
have him in your heart, you will understand what I wish. You will sympathize with me because
you will know what urges me on.
-St. Ignatius-
(from walking along seashore and seeing the impact of changing climate and human
development in the nature) Every we pursuit on earth that is not reason with love or for the
purpose of love is meaningless. All things on this earth is temporary and with dont have full
control in the fate of even the least of things. So, we must earnestly seek His wisdom and work
and love for His glory. Everything that we desire in the absence of our holy love in this Earth is
and will be meaningless.
