President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Thursday, Dec. 8, urged Filipinos to put trust in God as the country commemorates the Feast of Immaculate Conception
In his message, Marcos called on Filipinos to “strive to resign from individualistic tendencies and aspire to generously give ourselves without expecting anything in return.”
“In the end, what we can bring into our everlasting home are those we cherish deep in our hearts, not the possessions we can only hold in our hands,” he said.
The President asked Filipinos to “reason for being” and search for vocation “in the spirit of unconditional obedience and abiding love.”
“I trust that no matter how uncertain the days ahead remain, we will soon understand the will of God and the purpose behind the journeys that we have only walked in faith,” he added. – gb
