Positively Pinoy: Free - Bagong Buhay kay KristoHalimbawa

Diligence Pays Off God wants you to do things until it is completed, irrespective of the difficulties and frustrations. Ang mga Pilipino ay halos nakilala sa attitude ng pagiging NINGAS KUGON. We lose fire and enthusiasm kapag nagsimula ng maging mahirap ang mga bagay at dumadami na ang mga pagsubok. There were two frogs that fell into a bucket of cream and tried very hard to get out, but each time they slipped back again. One said, We will never get out of here, gave up and drowned. The other frog persevered with kicking until suddenly, he felt something hard beneath his feet and discovered that his kicking turned the cream into butter. Nakalabas siya ng ligtas. Diligence may not play a big part in today's world but it plays a big part in the Bible. Those who have done great exploits for God have been men and women of persistence and perseverance. At isa sa mga mahusay at magandang halimbawa ay si Apostle Paul. "We are hard pressed on every side but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed." Nagpatuloy siya kahit ang iba ay halos sumuko na! Being locked up for two years, persevering was the last thing on my mind. It was a lot easier to just give up and say there is no way out. But I persevered and diligently looked forward to the dancing that came after the mourning, the joy that overturned all my sorrows. Fight the good fight, press on and look forward. Sir Winston Churchill, though failing and feeble, stood up to address university students and said: I have just one thing to say to you: Never give up. Never, ever, ever give up! He sat down to a standing ovation.
