Friday, June 15, around midnight I arrived safely in Manila. Pastor Benji picked me up at the airport and the next morning we traveled another 11 hours to reach our destination, my second home, Pinamalayan. This morning we were able to visit one of the churches that I've attended while previously living here. It's been such a great time to see people we've been working with as well as meeting new believers. They have a discipleship program for young people within their church that they've asked us to speak at for the next couple of weeks. Pray for God's Word to be spoken clearly.
This morning they sang "Because He Lives". I heard this song right before I had left to come to the Philippines. No matter if I'm in America sitting in a pew with a/c or in the Philippines sitting on a wooden bench with sweat, nothing compares to having a life with Christ.
"Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living, just because He lives."
