Father’s Day Special “On the Boat of Life” (Mark 4:35-41)

by Roger, posted in Celebrations

Jesus was asleep on the stern of the boat. When the squall came, the wave was breaking and filling up the boat. The disciples were terrified and woke him up. He rebuked the wind and said ” Quiet be still” to the sea  and there was a great calm.

Life  is best describe in the previous bible passage.  There are lots of troubles, challenges and misconceptions causing us into  the crossroads of life.  Today, the world celebrates “Fathers Day” to remind and highlight to the world “how great fathers are” doing their best in the  service to their respective families.  Perhaps family difficulties though exist, may not impact the lives of each family member because someone has absorb it, the father of the family. Great are their sacrifices for the welfare of their families. Congratulations  to all the fathers who dedicated their whole self for the good of their family.

It is my prayer that, like in the occasion of Christ’s presence in the boat of life with his disciples,  might be able to experience God’s presence taking control of the odds of this life. Remember not to jump over this boat of life into the ocean of difficulties and temptations for Christ is not anywhere but only in this boat.  What  needs to be done  is to fold down knees in prayer to awaken him and take control of the difficult situations of this life.

SMIS TRAINING PARTING WORDS

by Roger, posted in Education Updates

 

          According to William Pollard, Chairman of Fairwyn Investment Company, Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized, processed, and available to the right people in a format for decision making, it is a burden, not a benefit. Great are the groups of trainers for the Division of Cebu Province wide Schools Management Information System implementation. These groups are amazingly easy to train and to work with from the very start of the training, from doing the series activities until the roll out planning session for a very ambitious immediate implementation of the system for the coming School Year 2021-2022. Indeed, they are the right people serving as the conduit of learning for the greater benefit of the many in the Division of Cebu Province. The division’s resources will not turn into waste for the program was entrusted to these able personalities who will make things happen in the right time and in the right places. Hence, my salute to all of you guys.

Furthermore, Julie Dirksen said “Learning experiences are like journeys. The journey starts where the learning is now and ends where the learner is more successful. The end of the journey isn’t knowing more, it’s doing more”. That is why this training does not dramatically end this day but the beginning of a journey of doing more in the occasion of the “Roll Out Training Series” pending upon the approval of our respected Schools Division Superintendent of Cebu Province none other than Dr. Marilyn S. Andales. As we all carry out this mission, allow me to say good luck and more power to each and everyone.
