God is the God of restoration. In His own time and in His own way, kaya Niyang ibalik ang nawala sa atin. Hindi man sa paraang gusto o inakala natin, pero laging mas mabuti ang ibibigay Niya sa atin.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Kadalasan, ang instinct natin ay maghanap agad ng solusyon — doktor, gamot, therapy, advice, distractions — pero let God be your first call, not your last resort.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Nili-lead ka ba ni Lord na ipanalangin ang ibang tao ngayon? O masyado kang nakapokus sa mga kabiguan o kahirapan mo sa buhay para maglaan ng panahon to pray on behalf of others? All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Have you ever walked into a room and felt like you don't belong there? Wala kang kakilala o di kaya'y you felt out of place? O kung hindi unwanted, you feel like you have to earn your way to acceptance. You put on a mask so people would like you.

Do you believe in miracles? Of all the miracles that Jesus did while He was still here on earth, which one immediately comes to mind? Is it the one where He raised the dead, calmed the storm, or healed the sick? These are some of His most commonlyknown miracles. But what about His very first one?

More than 20 years na si Beth sa kumpanya. Masinop at hindi mareklamo sa trabaho kaya nang mag-retire siya, bukod sa retirement package, binigyan siya ng free weekend getaway for two.

We can be compared to EV cars. Hindi natin kayang mag go-go-go lang without recharging. Physically, kailangan natin ang self-care kung saan ay meron tayong sapat na tulog, pagkain at exercise or other activities that increase our heart rate. Makikita rin natin ang magandang effect nito sa ating emotional and mental well-being.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Akala natin sinusubok tayo kapag nakakaranas tayo ng failure. Pero pati pala ang success, isang test din. Naka-focus pa ba tayo kay Lord o sa sarili natin? Paano kaya tayo hindi matutulad kay Uzias? Why not begin by asking the Blesser of wisdom?All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Ang buhay natin ay punong-puno ng mga bagay na inaakala nating mahalaga. Minsan, nagiging busy tayo sa work, pag-aaral, o iba't ibang activities. Pero ano nga ba talaga ang mahalaga?All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Kaya mga kapatid, ngumiti palagi.

Sa corporate setup, may mga company na liability ang tingin sa isang babae kapag naging isang ina. Lalo na ‘yung mga nag-aapply sa work after how many years of being a stay-at-home mom at ang work experience ay pagiging nanay lang. Ang tanong: Bakit may “lang”?

There are different parenting styles, pero kung hahayaan nating pangunahan tayo ng Panginoon sa pangangalaga sa mga anak natin, susundin natin ang sinabi Niya na disiplinahin sila nang naayon sa Kanyang salita (Proverbs 22:6).All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Can you imagine the atmosphere during those times? Imagine being with somebody day and night, for many years, and all you hear from them are rants.

Totoo bang nabuhay muli si Jesus? Hindi ito fairytale. Hindi rin urban legend. Sa dami ng tanong ngayon sa mundo, ito siguro ang pinaka-crucial na tanong ng Cristianismo. Kasi kung hindi Siya nabuhay muli, balewala ang lahat — ang Bible, ang simbahan, ang pananampalataya natin.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Sadly, many of us are prone to acting like Lynette and the nine healed lepers. We knock on God's door, He lets us in and gives us what we want, and then we rush out of the door without even looking back to acknowledge the Giver.

Waiting on God doesn't mean He's not moving. Minsan, hindi lang talaga ito dumarating sa paraang inaasahan natin. It's in the waiting that He's doing His deepest work.

Hindi dinisenyo ng Diyos na maging mahirap ang buhay. God created a perfect life for Adam and Eve with Him in the Garden of Eden. They had everything they needed in paradise, but when they disobeyed God, sin ruined everything. Doon nagsimula ang paghihirap ng tao na mabuhay.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Sa buhay, may mga pagsubok tayong pagdaraanan na maikukumpara natin sa isang bundok na sobrang hirap akyatin. The feeling of uncertainty can sometimes create fear in our hearts that can paralyze us. Mapapasabi ka minsan, “Bakit naman sa lahat ng tao ay ako pa ang nakasalo ng matinding pagsubok sa buhay?” All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

What is the first thing you do as soon as you wake up? Check your phone? Rush to work or school? Many of us hurry to get the tasks done, and because of the busyness, forget to pray or spend time with the Lord. How does this practice of making the Lord the priority determine our future?

Working to earn an honest living is definitely something to be more proud of than earning money from deceitful means. Ang motivation natin ay ang magtrabaho nang buong sipag at tapat. Why? Dahil ang Diyos ang nagbigay ng pagkakataon para tayo makapagtrabaho at Siya rin ang maggagantimpala sa atin.All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Who has not dreamed of becoming a prince or princess in real life? Pero hindi mo na kailangang daanin sa cosplay ang iyong fantasy dahil sinabi ni Jesus na sa simula pa lamang ay we're meant to be part of God's Kingdom.

Have you been feeling a little bit more thirsty since summer is here? Drinking water is a necessity because it plays a big role in keeping us healthy. Nowadays, getting water is a lot easier compared with how they did it in the Bible times, just like in the story told in today's passage. There's actually more to discover in the story of the Samaritan woman who came to the well for water. All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Madalas, isa sa mga pinakamalaking tanong na bumabagabag sa isip ng marami ay ito: “Paano ba talaga ako maliligtas? Sapat na ba ang maniwala lang, o kailangan ko pa bang gumawa ng maraming kabutihan para maging karapat-dapat sa Diyos?” Maraming tao ang lumalaki sa ideya na ang kaligtasan ay parang isang timbangan — kung mas marami ang mabuting gawa mo kaysa sa masama, doon ka maliligtas. Pero totoo ba ito?All Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Bakit ito kapangyarihan? Dahil ang gospel ang sagot ng Diyos sa problema ng kasalanan. Ang gospel ang mensahe ng Diyos para muling makalapit tayo sa Kanya. Ito ang magandang balita: Tayo ay nagkasala at hindi natin kayang iligtas ang ating sarili, kaya si Jesus ay namatay sa krus para bayaran ang ating mga kasalanan at buhayin tayong muliAll Rights Reserved, CBN Asia Inc.https://www.cbnasia.com/giveSupport the show

Madalas, naririnig natin ang tanong na, "Bakit ko kailangan ng pagliligtas? Hindi naman ako masamang tao. Ginagawa ko naman ang tama, at sinisikap kong maging mabait sa kapwa." At totoo, marami sa atin ang nagsisikap na mamuhay nang maayos, na may mabuting puso. Pero kung titingnan natin ang tanong na ito mula sa pananaw ng Diyos, makikita natin ang isang mas malalim na katotohanan.

New season. New beginnings. A good future. A happy family. A healthy well-being. Ilan lamang iyan sa mga pinapangarap ng marami sa atin. Added to these, we might have a “bucket list” o mga bagay na gusto nating magawa bago tayo mamatay. These are the things — possessions or circumstances — that, we think, will make our lives better.

Naitanong mo na ba kung naririnig talaga ni Lord ang prayers mo? Bakit kaya ‘yung ibang tao, isang pray lang nila, may sagot agad? Why does it seem like God is giving you the silent treatment?

Ilang beses na ba tayong umiwas sa volunteer work hanggang “ma-voluntold” — 'yung na-assign kasi walang handang tumulong? Naiisip kasi nating mauubos ang ating oras. Gagastos tayo.

We know that the Lord provides. But why is it that when we face a crisis, we rise from our praying knees to work in ways that are not pleasing to God, such as gambling?

Isang beses lang binanggit si Susana sa New Testament. Hindi siya tulad ni Mary Magdalene, na pamilyar kahit sa mga hindi mahilig magbasa ng Biblia.

Natawag ka na bang quitter? Na-tag ka na bang mabilis mag-give up? Masakit marinig ito especially when other people mock your decision to stop and let go.
