Value focus Spirituality
Spirituality is the condition of being spiritual rather than the performance or compliance of religious
rites, ceremonies, rituals, or obligations. It was derived from the belief that we are created beings with
three elements or aspects: body, soul, and spirit. The spirit forms part of the nature of a person that
eventually reflects his/her personality and lifestyle. The body disintegrates into the ground when buried
but the spirit remains alive.

In nature, the spirit can either be sinful or holy. It can be sinful when it is accustomed to sin but it can be
redeemed by repentance, internal cleansing, and believing in the power of God. Once redeemed, the
person transits from the old life to a new one. It creates a genuine transformation in a person which
brings him/her back to his/her original nature – the very nature of God.

Without faith in God, a person remains to have a sinful life because of frailty or vulnerability. On the
other hand, if a person have faith in God and allows Him to rule and takeover his/her life, he/she can
achieve holiness and righteousness because his/her nature is continuously renewed, and thereafter
conform to His likeness. This gives the person the capacity to resist all forms of temptation. Spirituality
becomes the foundation of the person for a holy living. It is very important to keep the renewed spirit
strong to resist anything that defiles our body and soul.
Most Filipinos believe in God. Even our Constitution implores His aid as provided in the Preamble.
Thus, Filipinos are expected to live up to this, and are expected to live a holy or consecrated life.
With spirituality at work, we can expect incorruptibility among the public servants because they will
start to live a fasted life. Temptation in the corrupt system can be damaging and only those with
strong spirituality can endure and hold their ground to stand for what is upright. If our faith in God is
strong, no matter how wicked the surrounding can be, we cannot be shaken because we know that
God is on our side and is backing us up. Whatever evil schemes the wicked will plan, it will be
thwarted and put to naught because God Himself will act.

With the foregoing discussion, there is a dire need for spirituality to be observed and practiced by
every public servant. It is beyond being devoted to one’s religion but being holy in the inside. It is
not occasional but a lifestyle. It is allowing the Holy nature to prevail over our selfish ambitions and
desires. Live by the spirit by yielding to His Word and feeding ourselves with His Words that give
life. For if we live by the spirit, we will not gratify the sinful desires of the flesh. 
DECLARATION

We are spiritual men and women. We choose to live in the spirit so that
we will not gratify the sinful desires of the flesh. Our minds are
governed by the Spirit which is life and peace. From this moment
forward, we commit to walk in the spirit and develop our spirituality.​
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for allowing us to realize that we are not just made of
body and soul but also of spirit. Teach us how to live in the spirit and walk
in the spirit. We ask for wisdom, knowledge and understanding on how to
increase our spirituality. Allow us to understand our purpose and how You
want us to spend the rest of our days here on earth. In the name of the
Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.​
