Despite witnessing the wondrous miracles of Jesus, the disciples failed to understand the identity and authority of Jesus as the Son of God. This Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung shows how God uses trials as ‘performance appraisals’ to reveal what’s in our hearts and deepen our knowledge of Christ, challenging us to go beyond surface-level faith to a genuine understanding and trust in our Savior.
How often do we see God move and still miss what He’s showing us? This Sunday, Pastor Jared Co urges us to remember that when God allows us to face hard tests, He is there amidst the rough waters, waiting for us to recognize His soft touch, shed our hardened doubts, and cling to Him in humble trust.
Bilang mga tagasunod ni Hesus, tayo ay dumadalo sa “paaralan ni Cristo” kung saan ang ating mga aralin ay binubuo ng mga pagsubok na tumutulong sa atin na mas maunawaan ang Kanyang katangian, kapangyarihan, biyaya, at layunin. Ngayong Linggo, ibabahagi ni Rev. Mike Cariño kung paano ginagamit ni Hesus ang mahihirap na sitwasyon upang hubugin tayo, turuan tayong umasa sa Kanya bilang ating Tagapagligtas, at i-ayon ang ating buhay sa Kanyang kalooban.
Unlike the other Gospel writers, Mark highlights the compassion Jesus had for the crowd, who were like sheep without a shepherd. This Sunday, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung encourages us to ask God for the vision to recognize and minister to those around us, just as Jesus did when he performed the miracle of the five loaves and two fish.
