To my lovely wife @jovyrestauro and to my dear son David thank you and I love you both.❤️😍🥰 Salamat din po sa lahat ng mga bumati sa kaarawan ko. Thank you for making me smile on my birthday! Thank you, Lord, for a new year. When everything else in life failed me, God did not fail me. His love remained steadfast. Thank you, Lord for loving me. I celebrate this day, because of your love. “Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.” “I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭27:10; 13-14‬ ‭NIV‬‬❤️✅🥰🎉🎁 Happy Birthday to me! https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci0GFb3BCYu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Sinisira ng Panginoon ang mga plano ng mga bansang hindi kumikilala sa kanya. Sinasalungat niya ang kanilang binabalak. Ngunit ang mga plano ng Panginoon ay mananatili magpakailanman, at ang kanyang mga balak, sa saliʼt saling lahi ay matutupad.”❤️ ‭‭Salmo‬ ‭33:10-11‬ ‭ASND‬‬ https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch-rJQ4Bz4r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A Prayer for Healing and Grace Dear God, We confess our need for you today. We need your healing and your grace. We need hope restored. We need to be reminded that you work on behalf of those you love, constantly, powerfully, completely. Forgive us for trying to fix our situations all on our own. Forgive us for running all different directions and spinning our wheels to find help, when true help and healing must be found first in You. Forgive us for forgetting how much we need you, above everyone and everything else. We come to you and bring you the places we are hurting. You see where no one else is able to fully see or understand. You know the pain we've carried. The burdens. The cares. You know where we need to be set free. We ask for your healing and grace to cover every broken place. Every wound. Every heartache. Thank you that you are Able to do far more than we could ever imagine. Thank you for your Mighty Power that acts on behalf of your children. We reach out to you, and know that you are restoring and redeeming every place of difficulty, every battle, for your greater glory. Thank you that you will never waste our pain and suffering. We love you. We need you today. In Jesus' Name, Amen!🙏❤️🙏 ~ Debbie McDaniel #behealedinjesusname #byhisstripeswearehealed https://www.instagram.com/p/CeTn0smBsB8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Have you ever wanted to get even with someone who hurt you? Well, they hurt you, so it's only fair if they experience some pain in return, right? But there's this saying, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." It's a reminder that, when we're all trying to get revenge, the cycle of pain never ends. But what's the alternative? How do we balance forgiving others with standing up for ourselves? And is it possible that "getting justice" is about more than just punishing people who've hurt us? There's a guy named Joseph who you can read about in the Old Testament of the Bible. Like all of us, I'm sure, Joseph once had to deal with some pretty major hurt inflicted by his own family. Check out his story, (Genesis 37 - 45) because it reveals something important, and it's this: justice isn't just about revenge. Justice is love in action. Can you think of time where you actively worked to make something right? #justiceforalldevotional https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdjv2kGB4Dz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Where so you need God today? Whatever it is, let me encourage you with this verse, “The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.”❤️ ‭‭Nahum‬ ‭1:7‬ ‭ESV‬‬ He is good! He is our Stronghold He knows our need! #stayblessed https://www.instagram.com/p/CdhWW4nBmrx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Earlier, my wife shared to me her conversation with God while she’s resting and silently talking with God after work. And this is their convo… Lord, yung nababasa ko na “let's vote as if our children's future depend on this election”, “para sa mga bata, para sa bayan”. Paano Lord iba ang nanalo, paano na ang future ni David? And the Lord reminded her the time when we dedicated David to the Lord. That was 2015. That was the year we entrust David’s life and future to Him. That no matter what the future holds, God’s will for David will prevail and our hope is secure. She clearly remember daw yung prayer ni Doc Jun kay David at that time…”Lord, we dedicate David to you, yung future nya, ikaw Lord ang mag papaaral sa kanya, secure na ang future nya sayo, Ama”. At sabi nya, she felt the peace in her heart at nabura ang pangamba, alinlangan at takot na ibinibigay ng mundo. Lagi lang nating tandaan ang sabi sa Romans 10:11 isa sa lifeverse ko, na “Ang lahat ng nagtitiwala sa Kanya ay hindi mapapahiya.”❤️ #putyourhopeinthelord #heholdsourfuture #praywithoutceasing🙏 #jesuslordofthisnation https://www.instagram.com/p/CdYLdaUhOsW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A mother can be your ministry partner. Even without you asking, she will still pray for you. Prayers with love always radiate in the heart of a mother for her children and husband. That's why we call her mother! To my beautiful wife, happy mother’s day. I love you. Mwah!mwah! Tsup! Tsup!❤️🌹 #happymothersday❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CdRzj-eBUFE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

““Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” ‭‭ Ephesians‬ ‭6:2-3‬ ‭ESV‬‬❤️👍✅ https://www.instagram.com/p/CdPWjumhwTe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Work is also a means of living out what Jesus identified as the second greatest commandment: to love your neighbor as yourself. Excellent work is one of the most practical expressions of this command, as work is simply a means of serving others. If you’re a nurse, you serve others by bringing them back to health. You serve others by solving problems, creating jobs, and generating financial returns if you’re an entrepreneur. If you’re a writer, you serve others by communicating ideas in clear and compelling ways. God’s Word points to many ways in which our work will matter for eternity, but we must never lose sight of the fact that our work matters today. Jesus didn’t say, “Love your neighbor as yourself…so you can tell them about me,” or “Love your neighbor as yourself…so you can help build my kingdom.” “Love your neighbor as yourself” was a complete sentence. Sometimes, we can be tempted to over-spiritualize our work. Jesus reminds us that simply loving our neighbors is good and God-honoring in and of itself and is one of the most fundamental ways in which our work matters to God.👍💕 #findingeternalpurposeinyourdailyworks https://www.instagram.com/p/CbLwqaRBtNb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Good Morning! 🌞❤️ #happysaturday https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca_N_hIhcUJ/?utm_medium=tumblr

As the eyes of the world turn towards Ukraine and the Russian aggression at their border, the first and best thing we can do is fall to our knees in prayer. Lord, We thank you that in every situation, every dark moment, you are active and working among us. Even when things seem at their bleakest, we trust in your sovereignty and strength.   In John 16:33 you said, “in this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” We embrace the fact that this world and the troubles we face in it have been overcome, and rest in the knowledge that you have the power to move in any and every situation. As we watch war unfold in Ukraine, we ask for your grace and peace to rule in the hearts and minds of all involved. In Jesus name. Amen! 🙏🙏🙏 www.crosswalk.com https://www.instagram.com/p/CaZVo6Ahqhw/?utm_medium=tumblr
