Suffering is part of life, but it is through the Grace of The Almighty that continues to strengthen us, encourage us, pick us up, to continue with the burden of our own individual crosses (what so ever they may be).

To suffer and continue in the faith is to be justified. And to be justified, we will be glorified by the Lord God in Heaven. Everything and everyone is By His Grace.

Scripture resounds:

 18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

 22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

 26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,who have been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

 31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

-Romans 8: 18-31



God Bless~

a family member of mine got seriously ill years ago. it was heartbreaking for me because that was the first time i witnessed the person very sick. i suffered to have watched my family devastated by the  prevailing situation. we knew there weren't any chance for the person to get better. it was time for me to let go and let God.

during those trying moments in our family, the show of support from people, both known and unknown to me, were incredible and touching. i'd never felt that much blessing in my life in spite of the suffering my family and i had gone through. God was there. and it was more spiritually uplifting to me than being lost. a suffering had brought life and deepened faith in me and my family, and dicovered the blessing of love and friendship.

Isn't it so funny that it is only after tragedy or when one feels lost/anguish/pain that many Christians go to church to seek solace and comfort in the House of God?

How much would our Loving Father In Heaven would love it if we all would go to church and visit His House and listen to His Words not only on sad/trying times. But also when we are happy, encouraged, feeling justified.

Because Our Lord God is Always Good. Everyday. Anyday.

It is only in times of pain and anguish do we, Sons and Daughters of Adam and Eve, that we seek The Most High. In grave times, do we realize our own mortality. Our individual finiteness.

Di lang blessing ang suffering grasya na siya.Dawaton nato ang suffering bisan unsa kalisod ug kasakit kay sa atong willingness modawat ana makuhaan unya atong suffering ug kintahay makahapit pa tag purgatoryo.Mao nay giingon ang suffering diri sa kalibutan mao nay atong purgatoryo nga gi purify na ta daan sa Ginoo.
Hunahunaa ang suffering sa atong Ginoo  Jesus ug sa Blessed Virgin Mary kung imo jud tugkaron ila kasakit wa ra na atong kasakit.Tan awa ang mga great Saints kung imo basahon ila kinabuhi ila ra giampo nga unta mag suffer pud sila kay gusto sila mo share sa kasakit sa atong Ginoo.Atong natural tendency nga mag ampo ta ug Lord ipalayo intawon mi sa mga suffering pero ang mga santosonon nag pray na sila ug more suffering.

How Then Shall We React When Suffering?
Firstly, , we need to understand God the Father's attitude toward suffering. He is a Sovereign God who works all things according to His perfect wisdom and will. He does not see suffering as something evil to avoid. Rather, He harnesses it to become an instrument for our eventual good and His glory. He knows the end from the beginning and can use the evil intentions of persecutors to actually achieve His will and our eventual blessing. Peter states, "For it is commendable if a man bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God. {20} But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God" (1 Peter 2:19-20) In contrast to God's commendation, suffering, in the eyes of the world is a thing of 'shame'. Unfortunately, if we lose sight of God's sovereign wise control over suffering, it is possible for us as believers to begin to view our suffering with the same attitude as the world. That is, we then begin to feel 'ashamed'.

But this need not occur if we remember Peter's encouragement. "{16} However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name." (1 Peter 4:16) Being a disciple of Jesus Christ is never something of which we should be ashamed.

Secondly, there is the human sense of 'fear' which springs up in the heart so naturally at times of suffering. Note our risen Saviour's encouragement to the Church at Smyrna, "Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life." (Revelation 2:10) Peter also writes "But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed, "Do not fear what they fear; do not be frightened." (I Peter 3:14)

Thirdly, one of the hardest emotions to handle is the 'surprise' aspect of suffering, especially when being suddenly accused as an evildoer. 'Why should this happen to me?' is our cry. Peter also has an answer to this - "Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. {13} But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed." (1 Peter 4:12-13)

Mao nay giingon," sa dihang nagpakatawo ta, gikaluhaan na ta sa mga sufferings o mga pag-antos."

Ang tawo nga walay sufferings, "bu****".

Yes ! just as they say , ´´kung way pag-antos dili masantos``
suffering can lead us  nearer to God ´´AWAKENING`` sa atong kinabuhi .
Usayhay mahimong ´´inspirasyon`` ug ´´trials`` aron mag sikap sa buhay at magmalamposon.


Act of Hope
O my God, relying on Your almighty power and infinite mercy and promises, I hope to obtain pardon of my sins, the help of Your grace, and life everlasting, through the merits of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Redeemer.
