A letter from October 11th, 2020

Dear 20-year-old Nova, Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". Don't be afraid of what tomorrow may bring because God is with you. I know that there are times that you doubt yourself, you feel disappointed in every failure, and sometimes you feel useless. But little did you know that you are enough, you have the confidence from our God, and you are already victorious for your battle has already been fought. In these trying times, I know it is arduous to be consistent, but let your consistency will always win. This is the time to turn your worries into worship, to love, and to give happiness amidst uncertainties. I know that sometimes you fear about what the future may bring, but you should never forget what the word of God says, “Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever." Always hold on to that promise. God will never break His promise to you. Your motivation here is not to be the best, but to honor God in everything that you do. I know that everything seems so uncertain, seems so unpredictable right now, but we should always hold on to the promises of God. No matter how difficult the situation is, I know you will overcome all of these. Every giant of precariousness, there is Him, fighting with you. I am sure that success will be with you. The fear you are feeling right now, surrender it all to God because only Him can take away that fear from you. You don’t need to worry about your future because He is the God of possibilities. His plans are greater than our plans, and all you have to do is trust in Him. Life may bring you into the biggest downfall but always remember that there is God who will save you from drowning, a God that walks on water. I just want to remind you again and again that you are not alone. Everything that you will achieve, honor it to God, the source of everything. This life here on earth is only interim. Every single thing that you will accomplish is not yours, but it is His. I know that you will be successful someday with the grace of God, and with that, honor and glorify Him above all. Care and Prayers, 40-year-old Nova
