Comfort zone! We love that. One of our favorite "tambayan". Dito tayo mas komportable. If we are given a chance to choose where we want to stay, it's better to chose kung saan tayo mas magiging OKAY at hindi AWKWARD. But what if, someone challenge you na gawin yung mga bagay na hindi mo NORMAL na ginagawa? Something out of your comfort zone? what will you do? gagawin mo ba o dededmahin na lang?
To be honest, it's difficult right? but what if yung magiging result ng pag alis natin sa comfort zone natin is may buhay na mababago at magkakaroon ng PURPOSE? are you willing to take the risk?
This past weeks, God challenged me to go out of my comfort zone and to minister to other people. To share the Gospel to my schoolmates and sa mga taong pinagppray ko since last semester. Yes, i'm praying sa Lord na gamitin ako sa mga classmates, schoolmates and friends ko. Though it's hard, i'm willing and i love to do it for the Glory of God.
PRAYING is good. But it's not enough. You have to do something.
In James 2:14 it says;
"What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?" (James 2:14 NIV)
Here's an examples; What if we always say na, "i had lots of homeworks, kailangan ko na matapos," Pero wala kang ginagawa para matapos yun? What if sinasabi mo na nagugutom ka na pero wala kang ginagawa para makakain ka? mabubusog ka ba? Let's say na you have FAITH na mag ggrow ka sa Lord, na gagamitin ka Niya mightily at palalaguin ka Niya Spiritually, pero hindi ka nag eefort na mag spend ng time with Him? Wala kang devotion and everything. Mag ggrow ka ba? Absolutely Not!
It's same sa mga bagay/tao na pinagdadasal natin na makakilala sa Lord. Yes you have that Faith na one day makikilala nila ang Lord, pero wala kang ginagawa para makakilala sila, still, It's DEAD. It's nothing.
When we pray we need to do something. Kailangan may Action.
We need to go out of our comfort zone and share the Gospel. Dahil hindi naman tayo mag-isa eh! GOD IS ALWAYS WITH US! :))) He will gives us the Words to say, the courage to speak and the strength to do the work that He gave to us. And this past weeks nga, God gave me the strength and courage to step out of my comfort zone! I witnessed on how He works sa buhay ng mga taong pinagdadasal ko.
While i was Praying, He is Moving. :)
That's why, kailangan na natin umalis sa "comfort zone tambayan" natin It's time to wake up and do something para maabot yung mga lost souls. (Souljah!) If we need Jesus in our lives, they also need Jesus too! We should have the "sense of urgency, Passion and Endurance in sharing the Gospel.

Don't be afraid na umalis sa comfort zone. Because God is with You. Never ka Niyang iiwan mag-isa. Take heart! Tama na yung "ikaw" it's time to deny ourselves and say YES to God. If you really love your family,friends, schoolmates or even your classmates, hindi ka matatakot at mahihiyang ishare sa kanila ang Lord. Because you know na only God can fill the emptiness in their hearts. Allow God to use you to the maximum. Let His name be lifted high in our lives.
There are many broken people around us. The people we know and the people we don't even know. And our Lord Jesus is the only one na makakapag-puno sa emptiness nila, sa emptiness natin. Share Jesus with them! Go out of your comfort zone! God is always ready to use you, but the question is "are you willing? are you willing to take the risk as you go out of your comfort zone? :)

Until now, God makes our relationship closer and closer to each other and closer and closer to Him. Growing together sa Lord. :) (Gladys Nieves, Zsay Dalumpines.
