Recognize that deviations are constant temptations, but commit to staying focused and on track despite challenges. Trust that God will guide you in fulfilling His mission for your life. Prayer: Lord, help me to clarify and commit to Your mission for my life. I acknowledge the constant temptations to deviate.

Is it possible to be spiritual in spite of your busyness? Those who are busy seem to think that it's an impossible task. But there is a way to pursue a spiritual life that can alter the imbalance of a busy life. We can learn that from the story of Zacchaeus.

Our Confidence in God | By Pastor Bong Baylon | RLCC Date: Oct 21, 2022 Text: Psalm 46:1-11 There are many things in this world that can terrify us. We feel so small and helpless in the face of so many overwhelming dangers. How can we live in this world with courage and confidence? Thankfully, we have our God who sustains and protects us. But we need to understand the basis of our confidence in God. To watch or listen to this message, go to https://solo.to/rlccphil #churchonline #digical #rlccphil What is the basis of our confidence in God? Three Realities that we believe by faith 1. God's abiding presence (vv.1-3, 7, 11) 2. God's amazing power (vv.4-6) 3. God's absolute purpose (vv.8-10) Central Idea: “We are completely safe in this world because of who God is.” (“Lubos tayong ligtas sa mundong ito dahil sa kung sino ang Diyos.”) Questions, Comments, Feedback - https://tawk.to/rlccphil If you want to grow spiritually, join our private membership community. https://soulclinic.peerboard.com/ ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HphBT74xh0

1 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. 4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. (Luke 2:1-7) Sometimes when we think about the birth of Jesus, we only think about it as a cute story. We may add some religious meanings to it, but it is still just a nice story that we tell children during Christmas time. We don't really see it as something personal, something that can and must affect us personally. That's why it's good to revisit and ponder upon the story of the birth of Christ even though it is not yet Christmas time. Perhaps, we may be able to see how personally meaningful it is for all of us. #churchonline #digical #rlccphil Choose your place of grace - https://solo.to/rlccphil Discuss this in your small group - https://rlcc.ph/devotional/ Ask for prayer- https://m.me/rlccphil Send your giving - https://join.rlcc.ph/giving Take the next step - https://bit.ly/3mJy44F Have questions? - https://join.rlcc.ph/support Main Idea: “The birth of Jesus is Good News for us personally.” (“Ang pagsilang ni Jesus ay personal na Mabuting Balita para sa atin.”) How is the birth of Jesus personally meaningful? Three Ways 1. Born within history: He is part of the story of humanity (vv.1-3). 2. Born through human ancestry: He is like us with a family story (vv.4-5). 3. Born in humility: He can relate with us who are ordinary (vv.6-7) ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9k06gDoXP8
