HOW COULD DELFIN ONG SAY THAT?

HOW COULD DELFIN ONG SAY THAT?

My family and I got the chance to visit Tito Delfin Ong a couple of weeks ago.

It was so inspiring to listen to him. We endeavored to be a blessing to him but it ended up him blessing us.

Listen in to part of the conversation we had.

;

While I was listening to him, one thought kept coming, “How can he say that?”

He kept saying, “I am ready. I am ready.”

While we are continuously believing God for healing and we know that God is a God of miracles, he was at peace just in case God calls him home.

How can a man say that?

You see,

the way we live now is completely  controlled by what we believe  about our future.

Tito Delfin knows that this life isn’t all that there is. That when he reaches the finish line, he has his Savior and Lord waiting for him.

(Notes about “Heaven” from our recent Sermon Series here)

As we ended in prayer, I encouraged him that God hasn’t given us a finish line yet. We will continue to fight a good fight of faith believing that our God is a prayer answering God.

We love you Tito Delfin and we’ll keep praying for your complete healing!

Praying for Tito Delfin. I don’t know this man personally but his smile glorifies God as he ushers people not just to their seats but to the presence of God. And now through his sickness, he continues to glorify God. As I was reading this post, I remember Paul’s words in Philippians that Christ be exalted in his body whether by life or by death. Tito Delfin is truly inspiring!

This kind of courage is so inspiring… to be willing to let go if God wills it! So many of us (definitely me too!) dread the thought of “leaving” the world behind…our life, our family etc. Tito Delfin may be physically weak right now, but I pray to have his kind of strength! We are praying for his healing!
