WEEKLY VALUE FOCUS

week 2: commitment / dedication

How much are we willing to give for what we believe? We believe that our nation, respective agencies, societies, and families are in transition towards genuine transformation. To believe that such change and redemption can take place involves commitment and dedication. It entails willingness to lay down our lives for the cause. In doing so, we do not lay down just a part of our lives but its entirety, including our time, resources, skills and talents.

Commitment is a promise - the willingness to give ourselves, our time, our resources, and energy to something we believe in. It involves a firm decision and unwavering dedication to accomplish our goals. Once our hearts are set to such commitment, we will not be deterred nor be swayed by words of men, principalities and compromising ideologies. It is not an easy move but arduous; thus, we must not rely and trust on our own understanding and strength for they are only but limited.

In creating this significant move of transformation, we are admonished just like King David and Jesus to proclaim, “Into your hand, I commit my spirit.” Subjecting everything first to God places us on a level of victory and certainty, He will never put us to shame. It will also allow us to access His divine empowerment so we can offer our lives, resources and time to accomplish our tasks and assignments. In the process, people will Bind us trustworthy, allowing us to maintain meaningful and lasting relationships with them.

Therefore, no amount of tasks are too difficult nor dreams too high to achieve, as long as we are willing to give everything. The aspirations of a nation changed; the hopes for a society genuinely transformed and the optimism of a redeemed family are all attainable only if we live to commit. In the early days, Confucius said, "I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand." Let us commit to do and dedicate our lives

ACTION PLAN

We can commit to change by:

Dedicating first our lives to the Almighty God and everything He has entrusted to us for proper management and stewardship;
Identifying things or practices inside our workplaces or families that are contrary to sound principle and commit to stop doing them; and
Being dedicated to do acts that are righteous, truthful, just and peaceful - rectifying the things we chose to stop doing.

DECLARATION

We are men and women dedicated to the Almighty God and committed to His purposes and will. We are determined to translate the Nation towards righteousness and transformation. We believe that the dream of real and lasting change will surely come to full manifestation as we have set our hearts in pursuing it. We commit to winning this Nation by righteousness.

PRAYER

Almighty God in Heaven, we commit and dedicate our lives to You. We dedicate all the resources You have entrusted to us that they will accomplish every purpose for which they are given. Our bodies are living sacriDices, holy and acceptable to You as our reasonable act of worship. We thank You for Your enablement that we can do what is right. Thank you for the ability to do sincere actions to touch lives, change the society and transform the Nation. Just like the dedication of David, allow us to be the same. In God’s Holy Name we pray, Amen.
