Sua Escolha

First Week: Love God, Love Others
First week topic
Elevate UST students in a dramatization of the first topic of your call.

Your call! A São Paulo-native guest translated it to sua escolha, in our weekly bible study at UST we called Truth Thursday, even the name was our. In every moment, we decide. From who to marry to what to wear for the day. From complex to simple things. The question is will you make the right decision.




Are there areas in your life that don't show you love God? How can you love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength this week?

If we will have a recorder of your mind, will it show Jesus? If not, will you allow God to reign over everything in you?

Will you obey Him? That is how we love.
Second week about our security is in the Lord.
I've always thought of myself less, insecure and comparing to other people but the Lord made me know that I am His beloved child and so I am secure in His love and I don't have to compare myself with other people because it is not anymore up to me if others prosper. What is that with you, Michelle? The Lord reminded me to focus on Him and in my development and relationship with Him by loving others and considering others better than myself.

 
 Know how God sees you and act on it. Since God is gracious, extend that grace to others.
God's opinion is the only thing that matters.

Our hearts are deceitful above all else. If that isn't surrendered to the Lord's will, it will show itself despite of your efforts to conceal it. The Holy Spirit is the One who can help us please the Lord in our actions, words and thoughts.

Third week: Purity and Marriage
In Purity, there is joy.
In His arms is pleasure forever.
His Word will remain.
And so, be the best for God's best-- Jesus. Use our time, talents and treasure for Him. To please Him for eternity and that is, as for me and our home, our lasting pursuit.

In His Pursuit,
Michelle Aquino

2021 Here We Are

I can compare my year with the Philippine Stock Exchange Index 2020. And I reallyjust want to get those candles up by being intimate with my relationship with Jesus.  I actually do not know if it is just me or I really matured this year. FINALLY MY PREFRONTAL CORTEX GOT DEVELOPED. Financially supporting my family even though they did not ask for it, managing the household while working online and battling my own life. I have actually shared some of those things in this blog this year. And as we fold the last day of this year, I just want to say that I am thankful to my King Jesus. If it haven’t been by Your grace, I do not know where I would be.  Salute to You, My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 2021 is Yours. I am all Yours.  Michelle Aquino Because I do not know what photo to share, would love to share this letter from my mom in our summit 2019.

Consistency

  This would be how I would look like if asked what I would say to my younger self. Adding, I hope you obey God’s no consistently because it won’t get any easy as you get older.  Sometimes, because we know that God is Gracious, we would already spend our lives in the way we want it to go knowing that God forgives and He rescues. But as what we have been repeating in this blog, we cannot escape the unnecessary pains that we could have missed if we just chose to yield to the Holy Spirit’s leading. Consistency in your love for Jesus is difficult. A one-time high or a seasonal-high in basketball won’t give you the championship. It will just win you games but the goal is to not just win games, the goal is your whole self experiencing Christ and being transformed into His image.  I learned about myself that whenever I feel like I’ve had enough of God for the day, I would stop being in His presence and will just do my thing. I make Him a to-do list that after talking to Him for ...

Bitter or Better

Practice doesn’t make perfect… in relationships. I think every single person who has fallen to the trap of satan (I intended not to make it capital letter) that we have to try things to know what we can improve on in the future, which gives away part of us in waste in the process. All the people who have fallen to the trap would say “uhhh how I wish I could go back in that time and yell at my younger self and say, stop it, Michelle Aquino, just stop.” When we aren’t convinced of God’s goodness, we will not follow His design. When we don’t trust God’s goodness, we won’t listen to His instructions. When we doubt that all He wants for us is the best, we will not obey Him and thus suffer unnecessary pains. We are free to choose, but we cannot escape the consequences of our actions. In lawn tennis, volleyball or any other sport that gives the opponent the score when we make a mistake, they would always say, go for the next point. When we sin, humble ourselves, admit that we’ve sinned,...
