I Love My Bible Teacher

Image
I would never be where I am without the bible teachers that influenced my life.  As a teenager growing up, I could have been in a lot of messed-up places.  But my Dad knew that I got to be in a very special place to have a good childhood - church!  At church, I grew up loving God and His Word because I have wonderful bible teachers who volunteered and opened the word to me.  My first time was with Kuya Noel who opened the word during Youth Sunday School. I learned from him to carry my bible all the time and more importantly, I learned where to find things in the Bible.  30 years later, I am a product of more than dozens of bible teachers.  Even today, I seat and learn and listen.   I just want to say, I love you Bible Teachers - keep up the good work.  Tonight, Zoom Call Meeting ID: 834 0056 9169 Passcode: 115904 May 19, 2022; 6:30pm - 8:00pm  Join Pastor Bong in the  Bible Teacher's Hangout with OBI Students Topic: Why I Love My Bi...

Praise and Worship - 03-20-2022

One powerful way for Instrumentalist to gain confidence up in the stage is to play along Karaoke Video worship songs.  I have utilized this in many ways especially when I am playing with new instrumentalist.   A PDF of the chord for each song is very helpful for players.   Sometimes I put a lead sheet that has notation on it.  I include a YouTube (YT) so that those not familiar with the songs can practice on their own.    For this set, Song # 1 is played live.   Song # 2 and Song # 3 are played along.  By doing this, instrumentalist get to play according to the tempo, dynamics and they sound fuller.  This is very helpful when you are missing a percussionist, keyboardist or lead guitar.    I am very grateful for the many brothers and sisters who had made their work available over the internet.   Enjoy your worship to the Lord.   ======= There's Joy in the House of the Lord (A)    Pdf ...

God is our refuge and our strength

  I'm sure you've been troubled before?  It's a feeling of restlessness where you pace up and down.  Your mind is bogged with so many critical memories and some of them of nagging suggestions of what could or what could have been.  I am so tired.   Consider these words... .............. If I had only known the last time would be the last time I would've put off all the things I had to do I would've stayed a little longer, held on a little tighter Now what I'd give for one more day with you 'Cause there's a wound here in my heart where something's missing And they tell me that it's gonna heal with time (From Mercy Me's Scars in Heaven )   ............... When you know that all you did may have been nothing at all,  you trust in God that somehow it was something. Lord teach me to let go of things I embraced so dearly They are better off in Your hands Your word said it's guaranteed (From Pastor Bong's heart vault) This is where this pass...

Identity: Your Choices

Image
You are what you choose.   Your identity shows by what you chose.   Junk food or healthy food?  Lie about your sick day or take an honest vacation?  Speed beyond the limit or stay within the boundary?  You are known by what you chose.   In Matthew 4:18-22, Jesus called his first four disciples.   It was not a cold call for sure.  They've had interactions in the past. Here's a thought you have to remember.  When God keeps on moving in your life, He eventually expects a definite response.   Jesus stepped up and first called Peter, then his brother Andrew.  In the next segment, he called the brothers, James and John of Zebedee.   All four left the nets, their families and followed Jesus.   You can argue all you want on what these men were thinking when they forsook their livelihood and followed the Messiah - but one thing is for sure, who saw how who they really were by the choice that they ...
