August 5, 2016. Being loving and kind only to your friends is no different from how the world relates to people. We are called to walk a different path, one that follows the example of the way Jesus walked. The Christian faith should be loving and accepting of all people. Yes, we love our friends, but we are also to love our enemies, strangers and those from other races, cultures and standards of morality. Love one another, fulfilling the Gospel of Jesus.
Matthew 5:47 (NLT) "If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that." Ras Robinson

August 5, 2016. Years ago I was healed of a brain tumor. When I began having headaches and memory loss, before I went to the doctor I claimed, "Proverbs 10:7 (NASB) "The memory of the righteous is blessed" The day the doctor told me I had a brain tumor I had read earlier that morning, Proverbs 10:6 (NASB) "Blessings are on the head of the righteous" I knew God would heal me because of what I had read in His word. God asks, What are you believing Me for?
Hebrews 10:38 (NASB) "BUT MY RIGHTEOUS one shall live by faith; AND IF he shrinks back, MY SOUL has no pleasure in him." Bev Robinson

August 5, 2016. When you are given the opportunity to jump into action regarding your faith and good works, do it. Strongly consider giving some practical help to those who are in need of assistance. Let My light shine within you by going above and beyond what seems appropriate and obvious at the moment. Do not let excuses get in your way when it comes time to putting action to your faith. Let My tenderhearted love and compassion be displayed.
Matthew 5:16 (NLT) "In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father." Kevin Robinson

Ministry to Children in the Philippines
 One of our pastors (in green) in the Philippines visits a home in an area where we sponsor children. It is hard to believe that 2 families live in this small 1-room structure. Family members of our sponsored children are so thankful that we help their children go to school. It is common for a mother to come to us with tears and say "thank you for helping my children go to school." Like most parents, they want their children to have a better life than they themselves have and they know an education is vital if that is to happen.
Your gifts for the children make a life-changing impact on them. Here are some notes from some of the children:
Princess Camille - It's always raining in our place and the garbage is stinking much again in our area and there are many flies so we always close the door in our house so they could not come in. I am so happy God protects me from sickness. My studies are better this time. Thank you for your help that I have new uniforms.
Emelie - Thank you very much for the new uniform you gave me. My older brother and sister now attend Bible Study and Sunday worship. Even if it is not all the time, it is good they can hear God's Word. Our pastor visits us in our house and also in school and I am happy she is a mother to us.
Erica - I am very, very happy that I can wear good and new uniforms now, unlike before when I only have used ones that my mother asked from neighbors. Thank you. It is rainy days again and our house is muddy. Our road going to school is very slippery, but our neighbor has a small jeepney that his father uses in selling firewood and getting food for the pigs. We will ride with them to the school.
Felix -Good day to you all. We thank the Lord that because of FCM, our family knows the Lord. Every Thursday night we have our home Bible study when our pastor comes to teach us new things from God's Word. About my school: I want to thank you for giving me new uniforms.
