Speaker 1: inspiring from heartfelt taglog sermons from different pasters and speakers
Speaker 1: all over the Philippines. We hope that this podcast finds
Speaker 1: you in good shape. And now here's your message. We
Speaker 1: are in a crisis, whether we like it or not.
Speaker 1: We are in a crisis. But crisis can either bring
Speaker 1: clarity or confusion. Dolman go in a crisis at in
Speaker 1: Either it brings clarity, Wow, important is abou hide? Or
Speaker 1: for some it brings a lot of confusion that heals
Speaker 1: a fear, that's anxiety, no going next. But for them,
Speaker 1: I am in the dark and I don't know what
Speaker 1: to do. But for people who have a different eyes,
Speaker 1: they see the crisis and see that Wow, now I
Speaker 1: know what is truly essential in life. The Bana and
Speaker 1: you know lockdown and announced meent grocery, drug store, online,
Speaker 1: e commerce store, essential slam po and that's a key
Speaker 1: word we all need to embrace on that Mero Maga essentials.
Speaker 1: There are things that are very essential only and I
Speaker 1: think this is what has been brought to life in
Speaker 1: the essentials are very important dim Ink. Prior to the
Speaker 1: lockdown so the crisis can either bring clarity to you
Speaker 1: or bring confusion. It can bring clarity to your faith, Josh,
Speaker 1: or it has brought confusion. You ask questions, make God pandemic? Right?
Speaker 1: And and so what is the effect of the crisis
Speaker 1: to you? And that's what we want to look today.
Speaker 1: It's either you are clear or you're confused. Clarity means
Speaker 1: you see what truly matters. Now we spend time with
Speaker 1: their family twenty four seven. Grab means is more so
Speaker 1: come prior to lockdown and the marriage. Using shahayan dal,
Speaker 1: you're forced to. But for people who have fixed their
Speaker 1: marriage and have a strong marriage, what happens the lockdown
Speaker 1: is such a good time to spend with family that close.
Speaker 1: That is a It brings more clarity now woa no.
Speaker 1: Next is either it brings confusion because we cannot see
Speaker 1: clearly because of fear and anxiety and passar I call
Speaker 1: some people up and most of them, some of them worry,
Speaker 1: some of them they have a lot of fear. Change
Speaker 1: with this new normal that people are talking about online
Speaker 1: dima online or we've got to learn how to change
Speaker 1: and how to pivot. So I have five non negotiables
Speaker 1: and how we can thrive and succeed. Number one, how
Speaker 1: can we overcome? The first is sacrifice. Sacrifice, whether we
Speaker 1: like it or not, La special la tainama. And therefore
Speaker 1: we are called to sacrifice. When I learned of this
Speaker 1: and I and I see no Matta and Pusa Greenhiels,
Speaker 1: Siandel Jongson economists, I knew it already. The writing was
Speaker 1: on the wall. This is going to hit all of us.
Speaker 1: And so the first thing that came to my is
Speaker 1: this word sacrifice. My family meeting Kameha who's now fourteen
Speaker 1: and twelve years old, you will now for the first
Speaker 1: time in your life experience a crisis, right, young Asian crisis,
Speaker 1: brown out time, Pani ramos so brown out. And now
Speaker 1: I said to my kids, now you will experience this.
Speaker 1: How you would respond to this crisis is very critical.
Speaker 1: And I told them we have to start sacrificing. Maramika
Speaker 1: maga baga in aago and you that in a behinding
Speaker 1: in a pudding. Right I you nothing and so new
Speaker 1: airport box and sacrifice, no sacrifice. You budget nothing and
Speaker 1: pa gay in the budget nothing and gastus. We need
Speaker 1: to sacrifice. We will go down a bit in our lifestyle.
Speaker 1: You know and as we make those sacrifices see massardinas
Speaker 1: ar rau and seam playing in lang is a no.
Speaker 1: And so these sacrifices are very important. Why because it
Speaker 1: affects all of us. You effect coronaviruspinus. They're saying is
Speaker 1: that there will be a two percent fall in our economy.
Speaker 1: No outlook, when this is done, there would be a
Speaker 1: six point five increase. Now now again all of these
Speaker 1: are speculations malaalamano. But with the study of economies, they're
Speaker 1: saying all of us will be affected. And that's why
Speaker 1: sacrifice is very very important. Confront you brutal facts, no problem,
Speaker 1: christianel in the nail palagi wiring in by faith. Confront
Speaker 1: the brutal fact. Now it's the same way with your money.
Speaker 1: It's the same way with our lives. It's the same
Speaker 1: way with our family economics. You have to confront the
Speaker 1: brutal facts. Katima sacrifice atma dibd k. You know, we
Speaker 1: will feel a little pain. Some of us we already
Speaker 1: have manga katzal salary. Some of you you don't know
Speaker 1: if next week you'll have a job. And so we're
Speaker 1: now preparing because this will take a lot of sacrifice.
Speaker 1: You need to have strong faith yet confront facts of
Speaker 1: your current reality. David Israel the giant Perro. David I response,
Speaker 1: Bong is a light army. Both confronted the brutal fact.
Speaker 1: But then it was not just enough to confront the
Speaker 1: brutal fact. We need to do something about those facts
Speaker 1: that we have. So number one is sacrifice. Number two
Speaker 1: that we need to do is we need to simplify. No.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite saying is accur wage per COVID
Speaker 1: nineteen edition T don't just accurate wage, act below your
Speaker 1: wage simply and DAPA simply and preach. No. I am
Speaker 1: I'm a very I'm an evangelist of simple living. I
Speaker 1: want people to live simple lives and I want them
Speaker 1: to embrace simplicity simply campus missionary bajo and also a
Speaker 1: mcbini stleet partnership and so limited income. But then we've
Speaker 1: learned how to simplify our lives. No, uh, they don't. Lang.
Speaker 1: I I land in shaping in hag Wo shopping land.
Speaker 1: We've simplified. And as I grow older and as my
Speaker 1: wife now has her own job, now we've we've No,
Speaker 1: we did not increase our standard of living. We've learned
Speaker 1: how to simplify para kaite simply in masa simply simply
Speaker 1: right in ma labas like invest my garden right young
Speaker 1: young plants, mamating herbs, comidito and it's a simple life. No,
Speaker 1: you don't have to always eat out out. So it
Speaker 1: was I know like it's strug but remember this. You
Speaker 1: have to learn how to simplify. No act your wage,
Speaker 1: go below that swell door and simplify your life. Seen
Speaker 1: you in Miyama and sen in my head up and

Speaker 1: thought that komer image mustata valu uh and maham and
Speaker 1: alamnila simply right yo Mayama. Because they've learned how to
Speaker 1: simplify their life. So this is a challenge for everyone,
Speaker 1: not only sacrifice, but learn how to simplify. Third is
Speaker 1: to save. It's funny because Marami feeling nothing nating going
Speaker 1: on to la karina Ymaha, new skills, Sabi grocery, yungiba,
Speaker 1: accounted bank exercise. Those are not new skills. Those are disciplines,
Speaker 1: not that we do when we exercise or we eat right,

Speaker 1: way with finance. No uh AMaGA discipline and adapat meron tayo. Now, okay,

Speaker 1: is what's saving does Saving means meronajon discipline prior to
Speaker 1: all this and now I am then fitting from my savings.

Speaker 1: experiencing the benefit of the savings para samagata Hindi say, okay,

Speaker 1: you is that you have to learn how to start saving. Now.
Speaker 1: There's five simple steps to achieve financial freedom at the
Speaker 1: galling Celebruni Randel Tiongson who's also part of our church
