Eve of Inauguration Mass for Pres Noy's Parents

There critics who say that the former Senator Noynoy Aquino did not shine that well as a senator and he is compared to the other senators who hugged the limelight in the senate.

A person who serves do not have to flaunt the help he is giving, for God knows what is in the heart of a person.

In the same manner, when you tithe, you do not have to announce it to the world.

Philippine President Nonoy is a humble person, he answers questions sincerely and simply, straight to the point.

After the mass for his parents on the eve of his inauguration, President elect Noynoy was asked what he prayed for. His answer, among other things, is for God to give him guidance and wisdom.

The Lord said through Matthew 23:12

For whoever himself will be hunbled, and whoever hunbles himself will be exalted.

Transparency

Transparency International calls on Aquino to jail corrupt officials so says the news item. Michael Hershman, co-founder of Transparency International is calling for the persecution of corrupt officials in the Philippines, as President Noynoy Aquino promised to eradicate corruption in the country during the campaign period.

Please make good your promise, ask for restoration, but not "blood for blood".

From our Lord's wisdom:

Exodus 22:2-4

If a thief is caught breaking in and is struck so that he dies,
the defender is not guilty of bloodshed;
but if it happens after sunrise, he is guilty of bloodshed.

A thief must certainly make restitution,
but if he has nothing, he must be sold to pay for his theft.

If the stolen animal is found alive in his possession--whether
ox or donkey or sheep--he must pay back double

Worth emulating President

Except for the cigarettes, our 15th Philippine President Noy is worth emulating: God-centered, simple, humble, straightforward, and with God's wisdom.

I hope he would promote pro life (go against abortion), ban sex education in grade school, eradicate pornography, gambling, and corruption in the country. Your term is only for six years to accomplish it, but nothing is impossible with God, if you ask Him for help. God is with you, do not fear.

The more you will be blessed if you forgive especially the people who have hurt you the most, the killing of your father, our hero, Ninoy. Some people may be incarcerated for following orders from the top. After so many years in prison, they have been punished for so many years by taking their freedom. Please forgive them.

Please be guided by the scriptures:

2 Chronicles 7:14
if you my people , who are called by my name,
will humble themselves and pray and seek my face
and turn away from their wicked ways,
then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sins
and will heal their land.

Psalm 19:12
Who can discern his errors?
Forgive my hidden faults.

Colossians 3:12-14
clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility,
gentleness and patience.
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances
you may have against one another.
Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
And over all these virtues put on love,
which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Matthew 18:21-22
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked,
"Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother
when he sins against me? Up to seven times?"

Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times , but seventy-seven times."

Pres Aquino's Sisters

The Aquino sisters in an effort to help their brother President Noy, by distributing school supplies to the needy, are getting criticism, that they are  part of the "Kamag -anak Inc" (Relatives Inc). They are spending their own money, and they are not getting paid for their charity work. 

Aren't the members of the first family expected to do their part in charity work?

And besides the Lord says:

Proverbs: 19:17 He who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord,

and He will reward him for what has done.

President Nonoy Aquino

With the election of a God-loving president in the Philippines, majority of the Filipinos heaved a sigh of relief. At last we can anticipate a new dawn in the country.


The Filipinos have been suffering quietly, although there are exceptions, people  who are very vocal about it.


May President Noynoy asks the guidance of the Lord on  selecting the right people for his Cabinet:
 people who are not only intelligent. but with compassion and with God's wisdom. Lay your 6-year plan to God.


Let's rally behind Pres Noy.
