May pinamamahala ba sa iyo? 👑

What are you in charge of these days? Pag-aaral mo ba, trabaho o may pamilya ka bang inaalagaan? Do you have a role at work that manages certain tasks or other people? Magaling ka bang mamahala ng mga bagay-bagay, o nahihirapan ka? What do you think about the responsibility of leadership?

Noong high school ako, active ako sa student council. Natutuwa akong magplano ng mga school activities kasama ng ibang student council officers. My favorite was our yearly sports fest, which was held at our local sports complex. Kahit hindi ako mahilig sa sports, it felt good to be part of something big, working behind the scenes for the whole school to enjoy.

This week, let’s look at what it means to be created in the image of God. And one of the first things we’ll look at is how He gave us authority to take care of things.

Basahin natin ang nakasulat sa Bible:

Pagkatapos, sinabi ng Diyos, “Likhain natin ang tao ayon sa ating wangis. Sila ang mamamahala sa lahat ng uri ng hayop: mga lumalangoy, lumilipad, lumalakad at gumagapang.” Kaya nilikha ng Dios ang tao, lalaki at babae ayon sa wangis niya. (Genesis 1:27 ASND)

This tells us that from the very beginning, God wanted to give us authority over the created world. At ang maganda pa, tinuturuan Niya tayong maging servant-leaders, gaya ni Jesus. Kaya ang pamamahala natin ay nakaayon sa Kanyang ugali, ginagawa ang lahat dahil sa pagmamahal. Ang gandang isipin, ano?

Tingnan mo ngayon kung anu-ano ang mga responsibilities that God gave you, at dasalin natin ito, “Lord, turuan Mo akong mamamahala ayon sa Iyong kagustuhan. I want to be faithful in the authority You gave me over ______.”

Tandaan mo, isa kang miracle!
