Nanatiling tapat si Hesus sa misyon ng Krus, kahit Siya’y itinakwil at kinutya ng mga pinuno ng relihiyon, ng mga may awtoridad, at ng madla—silang mismong nais Niyang iligtas. Ngayong Linggo, ipinapaalala ni Reverend Mike Cariño na piliin si Kristo kahit Siya’y tinatanggihan ng mundo, sapagkat pinili Niya tayo sa kabila ng lahat.
Jesus asked His disciples to keep watch and pray in the Garden of Gethsemane before His the mob came for Him because their human strength would not be enough for the trials ahead. This Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung warns us against overconfidence, as relying on our own strength may lead us to fail the Lord.
Peter denied Jesus because he took the Lord’s warnings about what would soon take place lightly, stubbornly relying on his own strength instead. Despite this, Christ remained faithful and restored him after enduring the cross. This Sunday, Pastor Renz Raquion reminds us that we will face pressure as we follow the Lord, and it is essential to draw strength from Him in both our best and worst moments.
Malamang nakaramdam ng pagkabigo si Peter matapos niyang ikaila si Kristo, dahil sa kanyang katigasan ng ulo at sobrang tiwala sa sarili na nagdulot ng kanyang pagbagsak. Ngayong Linggo, ipinapaalala ni Pastor Allan Rillera na ang pag-ibig ng Diyos ay walang katapusan. Huwag nating hayaang pigilan ng anumang takot o kabiguan ang ating paglapit at pagbalik kay Kristo.
