2 Timothy 4:15-22

17 But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the
message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was
delivered from the lion’s mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack
and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and
ever. Amen.
Christ is the fountain of all our being, our strength and source life; those who
make Him their pope, have enough in him to make up the want of all care of
concern in life. They have no emergencies in their lives, with Christ sitting
enthroned forever in their hearts, the Lordship of Christ at the center of
everything about their lives, no adversary is an uphill task such as cannot be
overcome.
Those who put their trust to own righteousness and strength, and think they can
do without Christ, make flesh their arm, and their souls cannot prosper in graces
or comforts and are ever living with no hope.
Christ alone in his boundless mercy, love and limitless grace to us he may direct
everything in our lives, according to his words and promises, towards yielding
fruits in holiness and good works. We are most useful to the Lord when our hearts
are motivated by an ultimate desire to see Christ glorified with our work of faith
and a sincere concern for the welfare of others to see them excel rather than
doomed.
Christ, the faithful and sovereign Lord, knows and understand everything that
happens in our lives, but he desire our full participation in sharing our needs, our
fears and our joy through our worship and prayers; in sharing with him, me bring
out life together as he intended it to be, by living a life of constant intimacy with
him and our lives are fixed in peace and satisfaction of our minds and Spirit.
in his limitless power, he supply every need for us, not in just staying alive, but in
making our lives fulfilling that in his great riches, we might find something to live
for and share our joy with Him.
Psalm 23:1-6
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green
pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Even 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. You prepare a
table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my
cup overflows.
Embrace, Christ Life of Purpose
Exodus 9:16
But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power
and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
To serve is beautiful experience, but only if it is done with joy, a whole heart and a
free mind that it bring out the best in us, the treasure of life that God deposited in
everyone of us, to enrich life and make it a joy to live for all.
when we see life through the eyes of Christ who called us to be part of him, part
of the society we live and serve; that we may all find the ultimate significance of
our existence, the value of living the purpose of life that was freely given to us;
everything and everyone God made and positioned in our lives, he did it for a
purpose; that we may all contribute in some way into making things better, life
possible and worth living, for the people we meet along the way.
but we humans sees life not as refining process to our to completeness, but as a
competition with nature and fellow human. and with their limited thoughts, and
dominating minds filled with fear, they seek out any and every means to be rid of
their rivals along their chain of life.
With such insecure mind set, they turn to be so good, in destroy things so well
that at sometimes they think, maybe that's their sole function and purpose in life
to destroy what God created instead of working towards recreating life to live and
let others too live. Life is beautiful gift, because we are blessed in different ways,
our individual uniqueness make it so, except in the eyes of an insecure.
Always remind yourself you were created to perform good deeds to leave a legacy
for other to follow in making the world better than you found it, to be a light to
shine, radiating hope and life for the world around you.
2 Timothy 1:6-14
For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you
through the laying on of my hands. 7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us
timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline. 8 So do not be ashamed of the
testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering
for the gospel, by the power of God. 9 He has saved us and called us to a holy life
—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and
grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, 10 but
it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who
has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the
gospel.
11 And of this gospel I was appointed a herald and an apostle and a teacher. 12
That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet this is no cause for shame, because I know
whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have
entrusted to him until that day. 13 What you heard from me, keep as the pattern
of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus. 14 Guard the good deposit
that was entrusted to you—guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in
us.
