King and I


 A long time ago when I was 16, I was given the privellege to teach in a Sunday School at our church in Quezon City. There I taught kids about God and that's how I met King. King was a smart student. He easily memorizes the Bible verses. I will always remember him as a young boy who's eager to know God.


Last Sunday evening, my sister told me the news that he passed away due to acute Leukemia. In the  last Funeral Service tonight, I was asked to say something about him. I didn't write down what I want to say and when I stood there I just broke down to tears. I forgot to quote the Bible verse found in 2 Corintians 3:5: "To be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord."

I know he's with our Lord and Saviour now.

Whenever there's a death, it reminds us that life here on earth is very short. One thing that is certain in life is death, but it is also uncertain as we don't know when we will die. Pastor Jun would always say in funeral services that Christians don't die, they just merely sleep and on the second coming of Jesus Christ, the dead in Christ shall rise. We will all have glorified bodies.

If you want to have that everlasting life, then all you have to do is say this prayer:
"Father in the name of Jesus Christ, please forgive me for all my sins. I invite Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and to rule my heart. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You and to convict me when I sin. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen"

I welcome you to the Christian family! Go out and find a full gospel Christian church to help you grow.
