In Christ Alone

 Let me start with this verse, in John 6:68. 

Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life,

Jesus Christ our Lord, the Living Water & Bread of Life. In Him we will never hunger and thirst. Before John 6, Jesus fed thousands of people by multiplying bread which fulfilled their stomachs temporarily maybe for a few hours or overnight but if we are in Christ we will never hunger. He has eternal life. Like what Peter said in verse 68, ...You have the words of eternal life."

Peter didn't just say this because he part of the special 12 disciples but because he put his faith in the words that Jesus the Messiah, the Christ says. Not because he has no other place to go or no other options. His heart knows. God chose Simon Peter, to open his heart to the words of Christ.

In Christ alone, all the doctrine, teachings, miracles, transformation stand. Only because of Him we are saved from eternal death. He alone is the only way for salvation. 

I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except thru me.

I'd like to share this song, In Christ Alone. There are many versions or covers that you will find in YouTube or in Spotify but I recommend this. Led by Mr. Bob Kauflin, Director of Sovereign Grace Music. https://open.spotify.com/track/7rwTDabiaSw2iAPJdlP0F5.

Search up in Google its lyrics to read or sing along while listening and be amazed with the truths about Jesus our Savior. In Christ alone indeed. Fellow believers and followers, this song is not for you and I. It is to give greater glory to Jesus our God.

By Faith, I'd like to tithe more that the expected 10% of my earnings/salary every Sunday and learn to bless others. +2. By Faith, I would like to bond more often and mentor the boys (disciples) entrusted to me. +3. By Faith, I can read the whole Bible in a year. (time to get me a new Bible reading plan. :p) +4.

It Is Not Always About Academics

In a recent exchange of text messages with my friend, I was brought to another part in my life when I was in my elementary level. I entered a christian school as a grade 2 student and didn't care much about academics. I guess that is natural for kids at that age. I remember the times that I started learning how to type properly and play games using stairs called "A B C." But one thing that I will never forget is the end of 2 nd grade. It is a tradition that awards will be given to academic achievers and be recognized at the end of a school year. I never felt so left out that afternoon when all my friends we being called since they have achieved high grades. I never knew what my grades were that school year and I bet it wasn't low but I felt that I was a dumb kid. I cried running towards my father when I told him that I was not included in the top 10. I think he said something like "try harder next year" ' coz it was instilled in me that I would do a lo
