► We bow before the Santo Nino and give this infant King praise.
► We are taught to trust in tradition, our priests and our own good deeds. Faith is not enough.

►Satan, the world and the flesh are continually bent upon falsifying the word of God or the pure doctrine, and never before has such perversion been carried on so variously and extensively as at the present time, so that in our day millions are being carried off in to eternal death by the poison of false doctrine.

We are desperate and destitute. But by the grace of God, ...
… some Christians began feeding us nutritious meals and sharing the Gospel with us.

And just like seasons change
… Winter into Spring.
Chains are broken and love pierces the darkness …
Lives are changing for good
We are taught to trust in God alone and that it is by faith alone in Jesus that we are saved.
We desire to live our lives guided by the Word of God.
God knows the number of hairs on my head.
Oh that our names might be written on the palm of His hands.
He has a plan for me …
For good and not evil.
He never leaves us or forsakes us.
And I am learning to trust Him in all things …
… that God is sovereign and
just, holy and good all the time.
We serve a mighty God who loves to give good gifts to His children.
