We want God to be our lifeboat. We just don't want him to be the captain of our ship.

The enemy sowed weeds and the Farmer takes them anyway. He tends and cares for both up until harvest time.

Such is God's mercy.
Such also his power.

For in God's care,
weeds become wheat.
Bad can become good.
How you start doesn't have to be how you end.

As soil, we are asked to nourish the Word we have received.

As sower, we are asked to plant and cultivate the Word in all types of soil.

As seed, we are asked to die to ourselves, so the Word may freely bloom.

In all three, God is the reason for the harvest.

Love God.
Not just because he's worth it.
But because he deserves it.

Don't try to love God. Just try to know him.

For once you know God, not loving him becomes impossible.

And the deeper you know, all the more inevitable and inescapable this love grows.

@JohnnyIsorena Haha mandadamay ka pa ah! Wala! Spirit is marupok but the wallet is mas marupok!

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

@JohnnyIsorena Dapat sinasama mo ako palagi e. Para makatipid ka.

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

Let God be mystery. Accept that we cannot control or predict him. Let him surprise us. For it is in total surrender that God can move most powerfully.

All we need to know he already gave us: that he is perfect, eternal, unending Love.

May that be enough.

In Genesis, sin and death enters God's perfect creation through the human heart.

In Pentecost, renewal begins with the Spirit resting and working from the human heart.

Such is God's design. The heart that was once ground zero of sin he turns to ground zero of grace.

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

Jesus breathes the Holy Spirit onto the Apostles and gives them the power to forgive sins.

For in making the Church of the broken and sinful, the glue that will keep us together and standing forever can only be Mercy.

@JohnnyIsorena Did you try it yourself, Johnny?

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

@JohnnyIsorena Hey! I don't do this because I like bitter where it should be, but a lot of people I know swear by it. 😊

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

What's the source of light? A painter once told me this is the first principle in art.

In the Resurrection, the source of light is a tomb.

May we never forget this. The Light that changed everything, the cause of our Easter joy, is borne of sacrifice, death, and love.

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

Christ emptied himself so we may follow suit. Jesus embraced weakness so we can learn to accept our own. God became vulnerable so we can also drop our defenses.

For how else can he save us if we don't surrender? How can we resurrect if we can't die with him?

@FaraLae1995 @jarldietrich Uh...time for a set change?

@JohnnyIsorena Muntik na akong mahulog sa kinauupuan ko

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

@JohnnyIsorena Ahaha ok naman?

[Pads Albert SSP @FatherBrews]

Every miracle contains two gifts.
The first is the gift you wanted: healing, deliverance, sustenance.

The second is the gift of faith.

One changes the situation. The other brings salvation.

The blind man receives both. But many miss their miracle for they only want the first.
