God created you to solve someone else’s problem


A “Younique” series kicks off with Your Personality

Explaining the topic of the series Bro. Jon Escoto said that each and everyone has their own unique personality ranging from the shape of their ears, fingerprints  and even how one’s heart beats. Everything is unique.

But before going further, Bro. Jon said “Alam mo ba na unique lang para sayo ang assignment sa buhay na binigay ng Diyos sayo?”

“Your transformed personality will be used by God for His glory to help your brothers and sisters and this will make you happy” 

He then urged everyone present to live for something bigger than oneself in order to achieve genuine happiness.

“Happiness comes when you live for something bigger than yourself”

Adding that, “God created you to solve someone else’s problem” as this special assignment will fulfill the lives of other.

“Kaya ka buhay dahil may assignment ka na binigay ng Diyos at yan ay ang maglingkod”

As such, Bro. Jon said that the real way to be happy is to serving others.

However he gave 3 reasons as to why one cannot fulfill the assignment of serving others:

No Time -  Inilalaan lamang ang oras para sarili
No Sympathy – Di mo nararamdaman ang nararamdaman ng ibang tao
No Hope – Walang ng pag-asa sa buhay

He then countered by saying that there are 2 things how to know the assignment that God has given.

Look at the world - Kindness begins with the eyes since one can never care until you are aware.
Look at yourself - God asks us "ano ang nasa kamay mo ngayon?"  It can be one’s personality, spiritual gifts and even abilities.

God wants you to be happy -- When you are weak, serve and be a gift to someones' need”.

Ending his talk, Bro. Jon said “Nasa istorya ng buhay natin ang pag-asa ng fulfillment ng assignment natin”

“You may not be somebody to the world but you can be the world to somebody ...The world may seem beyond cure...But never beyond care!"
