Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow

Song by The Shirelles | Acoustic Cover by Juris

… Tonight you're mine completely

You give your love so sweetly

Tonight the light of love is in your eyes

But will you love me tomorrow?

… Is this a lasting treasure

Or just a moment's pleasure?

Can I believe the magic of your sighs?

Will you still love me tomorrow?

… Tonight with words unspoken

You say that I'm the only one

But will my heart be broken

When the night (when the night)

Meets the morning (meets the morning) sun?

… I'd like to know that your love

Is a love I can be sure of

So tell me now, and I won't ask again

Will you still love me tomorrow?

… So tell me now, and I won't ask again

Will you still love me tomorrow?

Will you still love me tomorrow?

Will you still love me?

Clear Blue Sky 🌤️💙☁️

 

Gratitude fills my heart as I gaze up at the sky today.
Gone are the days when the Taal smog loomed heavy and obscured the beauty above. 



Now, all I see is a canvas of clear, blue skies adorned with fluffy white clouds,
a sight so lovely it fills me with hope and joy.

Let us cherish these moments of clarity and embrace the gift of clean, fresh air. 

Here's to brighter days ahead, where the sky remains a symbol of purity and peace. 

Thank you, Lord, for this clear, blue sky above me.

Volcanic Smog

🌋 Parts of Metro Manila have been affected by volcanic smog (vog) from Taal Volcano today. The eruption has led to vog, a mix of ash, gas, and water vapor that can affect respiratory health.

Stay indoors when vog levels are high, wear masks outdoors, and keep windows closed to prevent health issues.

Let's prioritize our health and safety during this time. Together, we can take steps to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Stay safe, everyone. 🙏

#TaalVolcano, #VogSafety,



Volcanic smog (vog) can cause various health issues in humans, especially for those with respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The particles and gases in vog can irritate the respiratory system, leading to coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest discomfort.

Prolonged exposure to vog may also worsen existing respiratory conditions and increase the risk of respiratory infections.

It's essential to take precautions and protect your health during elevated vog levels.

Ang kulimlim dito ngayon sa South 1700hrs pa lang, pero parang 1800hrs na sya gawa ng pag buga na naman ng Taal volcano 🌋

Keep Safe EveryJuan and mga Ka-Tariray

Isiah 20:1-6

 

📖 **Isaiah 20:1-6 Bible Study: Trusting in God Alone** 🙏

**Introduction:**
Welcome to our Bible study on Isaiah 20:1-6, where we delve into the profound message of trusting in God amidst worldly uncertainties and powers.

📖 **Verse to Study:** Isaiah 20:1-6 (NIV)

"In the year that the supreme commander, sent by Sargon king of Assyria, came to Ashdod and attacked and captured it— at that time the Lord spoke through Isaiah son of Amoz. He said to him, 'Take off the sackcloth from your body and the sandals from your feet.' And he did so, going around stripped and barefoot. Then the Lord said, 'Just as my servant Isaiah has gone stripped and barefoot for three years, as a sign and portent against Egypt and Cush, so the king of Assyria will lead away stripped and barefoot the Egyptian captives and Cushite exiles, young and old, with buttocks bared—to Egypt’s shame. Those who trusted in Cush and boasted in Egypt will be dismayed and put to shame. In that day the people who live on this coast will say, 'See what has happened to those we relied on, those we fled to for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?'"**

*Key Points to Explore or Discussion Points:**

In these verses, we witness a powerful demonstration of God's message through the prophet Isaiah. The act of Isaiah going stripped and barefoot for three years was a visual representation of the impending judgment upon Egypt and Cush. This symbolic action served as a warning to those who placed their trust in earthly powers rather than in the Almighty.

1. The significance of Isaiah's symbolic actions as a warning to Egypt and Cush.

2. The consequences of placing trust in human strength rather than in God.

3. Reflecting on the implications of seeking refuge in earthly powers versus seeking refuge in the Lord.

**Reflection:**
Take a moment to ponder how the passage from Isaiah 20:1-6 resonates with your own life. Are there areas where you may be placing your trust in worldly sources rather than in God's unfailing love and sovereignty?

The passage serves as a reminder of the consequences of misplaced trust and reliance on human strength. It emphasizes the importance of placing our faith in God alone, for He alone is our true source of deliverance and salvation.

As we reflect on Isaiah's obedience in delivering God's message, let us also examine our own lives. Are there areas where we have placed our trust in worldly powers or possessions instead of in the Lord? May this passage inspire us to reorient our hearts towards God, seeking refuge and deliverance in His unfailing love and sovereignty.

**Application Questions:**

1. In what ways can you deepen your trust in God and rely on Him alone for deliverance and salvation?

2. How can you shift your focus from worldly powers to the Almighty when faced with challenges and uncertainties?

**Closing Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, help us to anchor our trust in You, knowing that You are our ultimate source of strength and deliverance. May we seek refuge in Your unfailing love and sovereignty, trusting in Your perfect plan for our lives. Amen.

Take some time to meditate on Isaiah 20:1-6, and consider how it speaks to your own journey of faith. Let us draw closer to God, the ultimate source of strength and redemption.
