The Face That Calms All Chaos

Psalms 27:8 (KJV)
When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

I remember when I was young, being asked to join a contest at school. I prepared carefully and gave everything I could. I studied, practiced, and tried to muster all the courage my fragile little heart could carry.

Then the day finally came. I was brought backstage together with the other contestants. When my turn arrived, I stepped onto the stage and into a crowded hall. Yet among all the faces before me, there were only two faces my eyes searched for, the faces of my Papa and Mama.

And when at last I found them, something inside me quietly settled. In that instant, I knew I just had to do what I must do, but whatever the outcome, we will celebrate. Their presence became my assurance. I knew I was loved.

Now, forty-five years later, that memory still lingers tenderly in my soul. Even now, that same instinct remains. When fear rises within me, my heart still longs to look for a familiar face. And I have come to realize that life often feels like stepping onto a stage we never fully prepared for. There are situations that leave us afraid, unsettled, weary, and overwhelmed.

And I have learned — whenever my soul trembles, there is still one face I seek above all others: the face of my Heavenly Father. I am reminded, “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Psalm 27:1 KJB

When fears rise like waves within me, His presence becomes a balm to my weary soul. In His face I find comfort. In His presence I find rest. The noise within me quiets down. The chaos loses its power. The heart that was trembling becomes still. “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39 KJB

What a calming thought. What a gentle presence. What tender fatherly love.

Like a frightened child finding peace in the sight of familiar eyes, my soul finds rest when it looks toward Him. And suddenly, even in the midst of uncertainty, I know this truth: whatever happens, I am safe with my Father. I am complete in Jesus. God is the victory.

Many Christians may not realize that some forms of giving can actually hide a spirit that God wants to correct.

That sounds controversial. But if we are honest, stewardship can become one of the easiest places for the flesh to disguise itself as spirituality.

While reading Exodus 22, I was struck by how seriously God viewed stealing, dishonesty, negligence, and the misuse of another person’s property. The chapter is not merely about theft in the obvious sense. It reveals God’s heart concerning stewardship, accountability, and integrity.

And sometimes, sin wears “generosity” clothing.

A person can give generously and still crave recognition. The Lord Jesus warned, “Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them” (Matthew 6:1 KJB). Giving becomes dangerous when applause becomes the pursued reward.

Some give, yet inwardly expect people to owe them emotionally afterward. They become offended when they are not honored, remembered, preferred, or repaid with loyalty. Ulterior motive has been cloaked in the guise of generosity.

Others borrow money just to maintain the image of being a giver, yet fail to pay honestly and responsibly. Some forget, “The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again” (Psalm 37:21 KJB). Sometimes what appears sacrificial is actually financial irresponsibility wearing a spiritual mask.

There are also people who give merely because they feel pressured. They give because everyone is watching. Because it is expected. Because they feel guilty if they do not. Yet 2 Corinthians 9:7 KJB says, “not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” God is not merely after the hand. He is after the heart.

Then comes perhaps the most sobering thought of all: a person may steal, manipulate, cheat, underpay, exploit, or gain dishonestly, then donate part of it and feel spiritually balanced afterward. But charity never sanctifies sin. “Thou shalt not steal” (Exodus 20:15 KJB) still stands, even if the stolen gain partially ends up in “good causes.”

This is why stewardship is deeper than money. It reveals worship. It exposes what we believe about ownership, entitlement, gratitude, trust, and even identity.

But here is the encouraging part.

God does not expose these things to crush His people. He exposes them because He loves truth in the inward parts. Conviction is not rejection. It is mercy. The Holy Spirit lovingly shines light on motives so that our worship may become sincere and free.

The beautiful thing about grace is that God can purify even our reasons for giving. A believer who truly understands the Gospel no longer gives to be seen, to control people, to earn favor, to compete, or to compensate for hidden sin. He gives because Christ is honored.

Real stewardship begins when we stop asking, “How will this make me look?” and begin asking, “Lord, does this please You?” And when giving flows from gratitude instead of performance, stewardship stops feeling heavy. It becomes worship.

When the Waiting Room Becomes the School Room

There are seasons in the Christian life when the waiting room quietly becomes the schoolroom of the soul. Romans 5:3-4 declares that “tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope.”

The word tribulation comes from the Latin tribulum, a heavy threshing instrument used to separate grain from husk. Affliction, therefore, is not always punishment. Often, its purpose is to purge. God permits pressures that expose superficial faith, to clearly distinguish it from rooted confidence in Him. Modern psychology similarly recognizes that prolonged adversity, when processed rightly, can deepen grit, emotional endurance, and finding true meaning. Scripture revealed this long before psychology observed it.

We naturally interpret waiting as silence, almost as though Heaven has suspended dealing with us. But God never wastes suspended seasons. In His economy, delay often develops. The soul is being enlarged beneath the surface.

The word patience in Romans 5 carries the sense of steady endurance, not passive resignation; remaining under the burden given, without abandoning the trust. This sharply contradicts the modern impulse toward immediate gratification. We live in an age that conditions the nervous system to expect instant resolution; consequently, prolonged uncertainty often produces anxiety, overthinking, and mental and emotional fatigue. Yet God frequently uses unresolved seasons to loosen our dependence upon visible outcomes and deepen our attachment to Himself.

Isaiah 40:31 reminds us that “they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” The Hebrew concept of “wait” carries the idea of entwining oneself with another, like strands woven together. Biblical waiting is therefore not mere delay, but dependence on our relationship with God.

Then patience “worketh experience.” The word suggests tested character, faith proven through trial. A believer who has walked through prolonged uncertainty begins to know God not merely doctrinally, but experientially. Psalms 119:71 says, “It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.” Some truths are only learned in dark seasons.

And experience “worketh hope.” Not shallow optimism, but settled confidence in the immutable character of God. The soul that has repeatedly found God faithful acquires a quieter spirit. Lamentations 3:25-26 says, “The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.”

Are you weary? Tell it to Jesus, and do not grow tired of doing so. The waiting itself will never be wasted. God is cultivating roots beneath the lone of sight. Though you cannot yet see fruit, He is accomplishing work within the hidden chambers of your soul and spirit. One day you may discover that the very season you pleaded to escape became the sacred place where you learned most deeply that Christ Himself is enough.

There’s something deeply humbling about the phrase “under order.” It doesn’t sound glamorous. It doesn’t appeal to the flesh. In a world that celebrates independence and self-direction, being under someone else’s authority feels restrictive, almost outdated. Yet Scripture presents it as a place of blessing, protection, and purpose.

Hebrews 13:17 reminds us to obey and submit because spiritual leaders watch for our souls. That changes how we see authority. It is not meant to control, but to guard. To be under order is to stand in a place where someone answers to God for how we are led, corrected, and cared for.

This truth connects closely with the Great Commission in Matthew 28:18–20. Before Christ told His disciples to go and teach all nations, He first declared that all power was given unto Him. Authority came first. The command to go flows from that authority.

Many of us love the idea of serving God in visible ways. We want to teach, disciple, and make an impact. Yet we sometimes resist the very structure God uses to guide us. We want the mission, but not the submission. In Scripture, the two are never separated.

The early disciples did not act on their own. They were sent. They were accountable. They moved forward with clarity because they were under order. Through that, the gospel spread steadily and powerfully.

The same remains true today. The Great Commission is carried out through the local church. When we serve under order, there is alignment. There is direction. There is fruit that lasts.

Being under order shapes the heart. It teaches us to listen, to yield, and to trust God’s placement in our lives. It steadies us beyond our own emotions and impulses.

The call to go has not changed. Souls still need the gospel. But how we go matters. We go sent. We go guided. We go under order. And in that place, God does His lasting work.

Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV)
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Is it worth it?

Is it worth using the same lips
that praise God
to speak a lie?

We stand in worship, we sing, we pray—yet those same lips can still choose to lie because of something, someone, or a situation we are not willing to let go.

And think about this, how could we lie in front of a pastor, a man of God, and believe it is hidden, when we are always before God Himself?

Proverbs 12:22
“Lying lips are abomination to the Lord…”

God does not lower His standard based on our situation. He calls it what it is. And every lie costs our integrity.

Anything or anyone that leads us to lie is leading us away from God. It already has a hold on us.

So don’tmake excuses for it. Don’t manage it. Nothing and no one is worth choosing over Him.

Let God deal with our hearts.

What matters more to us right now?
What are we holding onto?
What is making us compromise?
What is costing our integrity?

Is it worth it?

Same lips. Let us choose truth.

Today, we rejoice in God’s faithfulness as Hope Bible Baptist Church – North Caloocan Mission celebrates its 2nd Mission Anniversary with the theme: “Shine 2 All.”

From its humble beginnings, the Lord has continually blessed the work with many souls being saved, lives being changed, and believers growing through faithful discipleship. We are thankful to God that this mission has been a light set on a candlestick, shining in North Caloocan for the glory of God.

We thank the Lord for the lives He has used in this ministry — Missionary Ptr. Jeremy Arandela, Sis. Shami, and Teacher Kyle — whose dedication in soulwinning and discipleship has made an eternal impact. Your labor is not in vain in the Lord. To God be all the glory for what He has done through you!

As the work continues to grow, let us pray with them for a bigger worship place that can accommodate the many people being reached and discipled and larger vehicle for the sundo ministry, so more souls can be brought to hear the Word of God.

May this mission continue to shine brightly—reaching more, loving more, and pointing more souls to Christ.
