    Sinumang magsasara ng kanyang tainga sa pagsusumamo ng mga maralita ay tatawagin siya at hindi sasagutin kundi ililigtas ng Panginoon ang mga maralita sa lahat ng problema. Ang mga kalakal na ipinagkait natin sa mga nangangailangan ay magpapatotoo laban sa atin sa araw ng paghuhukom.

    MANGYARING BIGYAN NG MASAGANA ANG MGA MARALITA (PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY TO THE POOR) "Huwag mong ikait ang mabuti sa kinauukulan, pagka nasa kapangyarihan ng iyong kamay na ito'y gawin." (Mga Kawikaan 3:27) Tungkulin nating gumawa ng mabuti sa mga taong gusto at ibahagi ang mayroon ...read more
