HIS Servant
Bro. Pete LapidBLESSINGS AND CHALLENGE
By Bro. Pete Lapid
 
Many of us have been with the Genesis Community for over five years. And we have learned so much and have been blessed with so much.
 
We have learned how to pray, how to worship and praise the Lord. We learned to read, meditate and appreciate the Word of God more and more.  We have grown in our love for God and in our trust and hope in Him. Our faith in Him has deepened.
 
And many of our prayers have been answered!
 
We have been blessed with beautiful children, beautiful places to live Blessings and Challengein, beautiful marriages, and beautiful families. Our tables are surrounded with good and caring friends, and brothers and sisters in Community.
 
We have been blessed financially and materially, too -- with a good job, good bosses and supportive officemates, facilities such as a beautiful car with a good driver, medical benefits and even schooling for our children.
 
We have a good parish life, good and supportive priests and we even get to serve in the Church.
 
Ah, what a good life indeed! What more can we ask for?
 
GOD has kept His promise. He really cannot be outdone in His generosity!
 
What about us? Have we kept our part? How have we been generous to the Giver?
 
Have we thanked Him enough for all these gifts? A simple Thank You is not enough for such loads and loads of bountiful and wonderful blessings!
 
This year, one of the main thrusts of our Community is to bring all members into higher levels of love, commitment and service to the Lord and to higher levels of commitment to the Community and of service thru the Community -- TO GIVE OUR ALL TO GOD! We want to raise our affiliate members into becoming underway members and our underway members into being covenanted members.
 
We have accepted His blessings; let us also accept this challenge.
 
What better way to respond to God’s generosity than this!
