It is important that I pray for all the churches, the orthodox ones, including CCGCLI, that they remain faithful to the Lord, in grace and in knowledge. There're certain in CCGC that I often prayed for, so that the grace of God does not leave them, that they be the ones in God's assurance of salvation, including their offsprings. Everytime I pray for them, I have to be reminded and pray for CCGC. Although I have often times wondered that these should remain at CCGC, not because of the state of the church, for the state of the church must be honored, yet not be pitied upon, as the body of Christ, but because of the spiritual welfare of these individuals within my concern.
Judging from the going ons of the world today, the temptations, the attractions, Christians today are easily distracted from the holy relationship with our Lord, which should not be. I pray for God's mercy upon us all.
May God grant me patience and understanding in the handling of my surroundings.
