How To Enlarge Your Territories
When you were a baby, were you cute and cuddly?
I know I was. (If you disagree, then you’ll be disagreeing with my mother. Believe me, disagreeing with my mother is very dangerous to your health.)
All babies are cute and cuddly.
Have you noticed? People go gaga over babies.
You know if there’s a baby in the room.
Because everyone, even the adults, become babies too.
In front of an infant, educated and cultured people say “Kookookookookoo, wawawawawa, mememememe, nanananana, yuyuyuyuyu…”
Females especially.
They’ll hold those toothless bundles of fat and go “Awwwww, he’s so cute!” 62 times before they pass the baby to another female. And the “awwwww’s” continue forever.
But face it.
No matter how cute those babies are, they’re pure, unadulterated, complete 100% narcissists. It’s true! These tiny creatures are totally selfish, self-centered, and self-absorbed.
In their little worlds, others don’t matter.
Only “what I want” matters.
Everything is about “me”.
A baby’s life revolves around five things and five things only. “I want to eat. I want to burp. I want to sleep. I want to pee. I want to poo.” If a baby doesn’t get any of these five things, he declares World War III.
And if he wants any of these five things, he doesn’t care what you’re doing. You don’t exist. You’re there to serve his five needs. The baby doesn’t care if you’re sleeping, or you’re resting, or you’re sick, or you’re depressed, or you’re on the phone talking to the President, or you’re in the brink of solving the problems of the world. Babies don’t care.
Through his endless crying, the cute baby says, “I don’t care about you. I don’t care about your world. I don’t care about what you feel. I don’t care about what you think. I don’t care about your existence. You exist to meet my needs. You serve me. And you serve me now!”
But thankfully, babies grow up.
At least, some of them do. (Hehe.)
Soon, babies learn to talk, to walk, and to grow up. And one of the things they outgrow is their narcissism.
Human beings soon realize that others exist. That others matter. That happiness depends on living for something bigger than themselves.
But sadly, some babies don’t outgrow their narcissism.
They grew physically. But deep inside, they’re still babies. Selfish, self-centered, and self-absorbed.
They’re really “babies disguised as adults”.
That is why, there are people who wake up one day in their old age with a deep, nagging, haunting emptiness within them.
Where does this emptiness come from?
From living a small life.
You Were Born For Greatness
Last month, I bought a powerful laptop.
For computer geeks, you’ll understand this: It runs on 2.66 Ghz core 2 duo with a 4 GB memory. What does that mean? It’s fast. It has muscle. It’s the most powerful computer I’ve ever owned in my entire life.
In my hands, my laptop produces 80 articles a month, feeds 30 websites, writes 4 books a year, runs 12 businesses and 9 non-profit organizations.
But let’s say I do something insane: Imagine if I give my laptop to my 5-year-old son Francis. Obviously, I’ll never do that. But imagine that aliens zapped my brain and I say, “Francis, this is your computer.”
Francis says, “Yipee!”
And all he does with his laptop is play Plants vs. Zombies.
For the next three years of the life of the computer, all he did was plant peas to shoot down walking zombies with a tin can on their heads. (It’s a crazy game.)
Imagine you’re the computer. (And imagine computers had feelings.) How would you feel?
You’ve got all this giga juice in you—and it’s never used.
You’re so powerful, you can create entire movies from scratch. You can record music albums in a snap. You can design a thousand websites. You can write a thousand computer programs.
But what do you do?
Run a silly game of funny-looking plants and funny-looking zombies. What a waste of gigabytes and gigahertz.
Friend, if you live small, you’ll be exactly like that computer.
You were born for greatness.
You have a destiny to fulfill.
You were born for a mission so great, it’ll blow you away.
God created you to bless the world!
God created you to inspire, to serve, to care, to live and die for others. God created you to sacrifice yourself for something bigger than yourself.
If you won’t fulfill your destiny, you’ll always feel empty.
Let me tell you about some friends who followed their destiny.
Jodean Sola:
Former Streetkid
Now Serving Other Streetkids
I met Jodean Sola 26 years ago.
Once upon a time, he lived on the streets.
He experienced poverty first hand.
He later became a seaman—but lived a life of drugs, drunkenness, womanizing, and selfishness.
But one day, he got sick.
I still remember the day the first time he walked into the Light of Jesus prayer meeting. This burly guy said, “Please help me. I’m being cursed by a witch.” He said he was in constant pain. “But doctors said there’s nothing wrong with me,” he said.
“That’s easy to cure,” I smiled. We prayed together and instantly, his pain vanished.
That day, Jodean gave his life to God.
He became a fulltime missionary. For many years, he led many single men to love God.
But his greatest joy was serving the poor.
Jodean was part of the original team that started Anawim.
Together in the team was another volunteer, a young woman named Ardis Abrogar.
Ardis came from a well-to-do family. But she left a highly-paid job and her comfortable house to live in a grass hut and serve God in Anawim.
Love blossomed between Jodean and Ardis. They got married. As usual, I became Ninong (Godfather).
It was also at this time that God called Jodean to minister to street children. He began feeding street kids every week and soon after, He Cares Foundation was born.
Today, 14 years later, he sends 200+ streetkids to school and he feeds 300+ streetkids every week.
He also created a micro-lending program in 6 slum areas, run various livelihood projects, and built a 200+ housing village.
Jodean isn’t living small.
Jodean lives for something bigger than himself.
Maybe you’re like Jodean.
Maybe you’re suffering from poverty right now.
Or maybe you’re suffering from a trial this moment.
God doesn’t want you to remain where you are.
Your poverty is temporary.
Your problem is temporary.
Your difficult experience today will be the source of your compassion when you help others tomorrow.
Your destiny is to free others from that poverty.
Your destiny is to help others who have the same problem you’re facing now.
Rey Ortega:
P20 Sent Hundreds Of Poor Kids To School
Rey Ortega was a regular chap.
Married with three kids and working in a company.
His life was as normal as can be. Went to work, came home, ate dinner, read the papers, watched TV, went to bed. Repeat sequence forever.
But in 1979, his life took a dramatic turn.
One day, he was having breakfast with 4 friends.
While reading the newspaper, his eye caught an article about 200,000 out-of-school streetkids in Metro Manila.
The figure blew his mind. 200,000 kids on the streets?
He told his 4 friends about it and pulled out his wallet. “Look, I have an extra P20 here. We may not be able to help 200,000 streetkids, but if we chip in, we can send at least one of these kids back to school.”
That year, Rey and his friends sent one poor child to school.
The following year, they sent another one. And another. And another. And he has not stopped ever since.
So far, Rey has produced 85 college graduates.
This year alone, he’s sending 104 poor children to school.
As if this wasn’t enough, two years ago, Rey built Tahanan ng Pagmamahal orphanage.
He saw kids roaming on the streets. He wanted to give them a home. So he and his wife opened their own home to 10 orphans! Thankfully, they now have a separate house for the orphanage. They now care for 17 orphans.
And last year, Rey built Grace To Be Born, a ministry for pregnant women in crisis. In one year, Grace center has been able to save 24 babies from abortion.
Rey doesn’t only give his time. Very often, whenever the ministry needs more money, Rey digs from his own pocket and gives away millions to God’s work.
Rey is not living a small life.
Rey is living for something bigger than himself.
Maybe you’re like Rey.
You’re living a normal life. Going to work everyday. Coming home every night. Watching TV during weekends. You’re wondering, “Is there more to life than this?”
Yes, there is. God has a big plan for your life.
He wants you to get out of your comfort zone, get into your courage zone, and love with all your heart.
But you have to say yes to God’s big plan!
Saree Malabanan:
Angel Dentist To The Poor
In case you’re thinking that you need to be a missionary like Jodean or an organizer like Rey to do something for God, let me tell you about Saree Malabanan.
Saree is my dentist.
But I must tell you that she is one of the most gentle, kindest, warmest people I know.
To me, Saree is like an angel.
Because she is so angelic, when she pulls your tooth, you’ll be embarrassed to scream.
She and her husband Rolly (also a dentist) have been in Light of Jesus for many years now. (They serve at our Binan Feast led by Jon Escoto.)
In her very simple clinic, she’d serve the poor with joy, not charging a single centavo. Her husband’s clinic is in Calamba, and he’ll do the same thing. Many times, his poor patients will give him talong, repolyo, and patola as payment. And he’d be happy.
Saree and Rolly live in a small home in Laguna.
I’ve been there many times. Whenever I visit, I look at their small house and their simple furniture. And I tell myself—if Saree and Rolly served only paying patients, I’m sure they’ll be living in a really big house now.
But not them.
They’ve decided to live for their mission.
And they’re very happy.
Saree and Rolly are not living a small life.
Saree and Rolly are living for something bigger than themselves.
Maybe you’re like Saree.
Through your job, you meet a lot of people everyday.
Let those encounters be your ministry.
Let them encounter an angel in you.
Show them God’s Love.
Buddy Tan:
God’s Trucker
Buddy Tan owns his own trucking company.
He runs a fleet of trucks and has 70 drivers working for him.
It would have been easy for Buddy to just treat this entire thing as a business—just to earn as much money as he can.
But that’s not Buddy.
I’ve known Buddy for years now and he loves God.
Every Sunday, Buddy gathers his 70 drivers and their families for a prayer meeting. How does he do that? He doesn’t accept any job contracts on Sunday morning—so his drivers could have this prayer meeting.
Every Sunday, they have Mass, worship, catechism, and even free lunch—all paid by Buddy himself.
And God has blessed him.
For the past three years, his trucking company has been voted “Trucker of the Year”—for the past 3 consecutive years! People are wondering why his drivers are so good. If you ask Buddy, he’ll say it’s because of their weekly prayer meetings.
If you ask me, it’s because Buddy loves his truckers and their families. And they love him in return.
Buddy isn’t living a small life.
Buddy is living for something bigger than himself.
Do you want to be wealthy?
Do you want to own a business?
Pursue your dream!
God will bless the work of your hands.
He will prosper you.
But remember to own your wealth, and not let your wealth own you. That in your heart, people come first before things. That’s what my friend Buddy did.
Don’t be wealthy alone.
It’s no fun.
Be wealthy, yes.
And make others wealthy too.
Eva Trabaho:
No Trial Can Stop Her From Serving God
Eva has four children.
Three of them have autism.
Why? I don’t know.
I’m sure Eva has asked God many times, “God, why me? Why three? What have I done to deserve this?”
But instead of sulking, complaining, grumbling, and living in the prison of her anger, she’s risen above her trials. Instead of living a small life, she’s given her life to loving her children.
Not only that, but for 20 years now, Eva and her husband Tacs have been serving in the music ministry. (Today, they lead the music ministry in our Taytay Feast under the leadership of Pio Espanol.)
Everytime I talk to Tacs and Eva, they’re always smiling, always joking, always laughing.
They bless me so much!
Tacs and Eva are not living a small life.
Tacs and Eva are living for something bigger than themselves.
Perhaps you’re like Eva.
You’re facing a big trial right now.
You feel that life hasn’t been fair to you.
But your problems don’t change the fact that God is calling you to serve Him amidst your problems.
Don’t make your problems an excuse for not serving, not loving, not giving, not dying to yourself so that others may live.
And when you do, here’s the big promise: You’ll experience God’s miracles in your life. Like Eva, you’ll have deep joy no matter what happens in your life.
And one final hero—an entire family…
The Relova Family:
Sharing God’s Love Year After Year After Year…
Twenty five years ago, Al and Eva Relova came into our Light of Jesus prayer meeting. They brought with them their small children. One was nine years old. The other was eleven. Sometimes, they would sit at the lap of their parents. And both of them learned to love God at that young age.
Soon, they were the ones bugging their parents to bring them to the prayer meeting.
That was twenty-five years ago.
Today, the entire family continues to serve God in the Makati Feast. (That’s why the Makati Feast is sometimes nicknamed the “Relova Feast.”)
Al and Eva take care of the administration, supporting their Feast builder, Randy Borromeo.
That 11-year old boy was Toh Relova. He now leads worship at the Makati Feast. That 9-year old girl was Mara Relova. She regular speaks in the Training Ministry. Their younger sister is Lizzy Relova who is in the leadership team of the Makati Feast.
The Relova family is not living a small life.
The Relova family is living for something bigger than themselves.
Perhaps your family isn’t this united.
Perhaps some of your family members are far from God.
Friend, God has a plan to bless your family.
He wants to use your family.
Give your yes to God.
Surrender your family to the Lord.
He is working in their lives now.
A day will come when your entire family will serve God.
The Prayer Of Jabez
I could talk for the next 12 hours.
And tell you about hundreds of other friends like Jodean, Rey, Saree, Buddy, Eva, and the Relova family.
Remember the prayer of Jabez?
It says, Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory!
I want you to pray that prayer everyday.
Don’t live a small life.
Don’t live a selfish life.
Expand your influence.
Expand your wealth.
Expand your wisdom.
Expand your resources.
Expand your skills.
And most importantly, expand your purpose in life.
Someone said, There are two great moments in a person’s life: the first is when you were born; the second is when you discover why you were born.
You were born for greatness.
Friend, fulfill your destiny.
How?
It really requires one thing only…
Give Your All
One day, a boy left home withhis baon tucked in his shirt.
I bet his mother knew he was going to be away for the day. Because he was going listen to Jesus. Thus, the food.
But alas, when Jesus spoke, there were five thousand guys there—and none of them brought their baon. (Typical men, right?)
And there was a commotion.
Because Jesus wanted to feed all of them.
The apostles began to walk around the crowd and asked, “Who brought food? Can you share your food to others?”
That was when the boy stood up and lifted up his pouch.
He offered his baon to feed the hungry.
Andrew the apostle said, “There is a boy here who has five loaves of barley bread and two fish. But they will certainly not be enough for all these people.” (John 6:8-9)
But Jesus proved him wrong.
It was enough!
He multiplied his bread and fed them all.
You’re like that little boy.
You only have a little piece of bread in your pouch.
It’s for you. Only.
But you’re tired of small living.
You want to live for something bigger than yourself.
So you offer your little bread to God.
And the miracle happens: Your wealth will never be enough for you. (Because human desire is insatiable.) But if you offer your wealth to God, it will be enough for the world.
God will multiply the little that you have.
Friend, your destiny awaits.
Say yes to God.
My Invitation: Build 1000 Feasts
My little group, Light of Jesus, has a mission.
We dream of building 1000 Feasts all over the world.
Each of them numbering between 200 to 2000 people.
Each of them a happy spiritual family that will show God’s loving face to a new generation.
I’m giving my entire life to make this dream happen.
I’m betting everything I’ve got. I’m putting myself on the line. I’m sacrificing my life for this mission.
I invite you to do the same, whatever mission God has given to you. (If you feel called by God to help me in my mission, I’m personally inviting you to partner with me. You can do two things. You can join any of our Feasts. Click here for details. Or if you live faraway, you can be part of our online and virtual community at KerygmaFamily. To join, log on at www.KerygmaFamily.com now.)
Sacrifice your life for God!

Go all out.
Live for something bigger than yourself.
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez

My favorite lines:
God created you to sacrifice yourself for something bigger than yourself.
Your destiny is to help others who have the same problem you’re facing now. - Why do I keep forgetting this wisdom whenever I experience obstacles; so it should not stop from learning but it all end when I share it.
There are two great moments in a person’s life: the first is when you were born; the second is when you discover why you were born. - Love this!
Bro. Bo thank you for inspirational article today….
your right YES to GOD…
God bless us all….
Thanks Bro Bo for sharing another inspiring and motivational article… God bless you more!

But bro Bo God answered me through you.. I serve in the South Feast bro hope you could visit us sometimes..thank you! God bless! and may LOJ yield more fruits for the kingdom of God!

Thanks Bro Bo for this very inspiring article of yours!!Been asking myself lately , what is God’s purpose for me really. This article reminds me to expand my sphere of influence/territories. Everything boils down too to knowing what God wants us to do while we are here on earth.
Thanks bo for inspiring us with all your wisdom. I’ll put in mind that God wants me to live as a victor and not just to survive each day.
God Bless you!
Again.. You made me laugh, cry, and inspire with this article kuya Bo!!

Janmck
Thanks, Bo, for this article. It is like an invitation for me to go live beyond my limitations. To share my life with others. It is very nice to have fulfillment and meaning in your life by sharing my life with others. I hope that I would be courageous enough to be like the examples you have given in this articles. It is very inspiring. I hope to also feed children who are poor or even take care of kids in an orphanage, and send them to school. May my dream of helping other people come true with the courage that I am hoping to have.

I really thank God for using Bro Bo Sanchez as a instrument of our growth Spiritually. Not only that but for all aspects in our life. God bless your family and ministries..AMEN!
Its a very inspiring article. Its true bo that when you give your smallness to God, he rewards you with so much more But what if you dont have anything to offer ? What if right at this very moment, I am looking at my life and it looks like Ondoy and the BP spill combined has left an aftermath of confusion,sadness and despair? How can I be destined for greatness, when I dont even know how to start picking up the pieces in my broken life? I always look forward to reading your article,your optimism is infectious. I would really want to have that kind of faith with God but right now, we are not on speaking terms. I am just hoping for a ceasefire from all the trials. But do keep up the good work Bo. I am stil listening.
Thank you Bo! Your really great. Thanks for inspiring us again. You are truly an instrument of God. May God bless you more with every good gifts. May God give us wisdom to do His graciously will. Ingats lagi. =)
inspired once again
i’m going through a very difficult situation bro. Bo… i need to make a decision which will greatly affect my life.. my family and work.. i hope i can make the right choice. thank you for always inspiring me.. please pray for me.
Yes Brother Bo! I will accept God’s Call to Me…I will live a life bigger than myself…Thank You for giving your life for someone like me….and for all of us that are being blessed by your sacrifice.
God Bless you more, your family and all of your ministry.
I just attended last sunday the kerygma feast.
I saw sis. eva and (now i know) her son and husband, singing.
It’s them… they have 3 autistic in their family and yet smiling.
It’s a lesson for me that I should not lose hope in finding the job God wants for me.
Thanks BO!
Thanks Bro. Pio and of course…
Tita Lilibeth who brought me to the feast. Meeting you is a blessing and a MIRACLE!
Yes to God’s call, I did volunteer as an usher at South Feast and in New Life Christian Center.
Thank you Bro. Bo for a very inspiring article.
God bless you and your family, Light of Jesus!
thank you so much brother Bo!
this is exactly what i need right now.. i’m so down at the moment, and really need to live a better life, to be a better me..
i did big mistake for the past months, and now i’ve realized it.. people’s eyes are on me at the moment, to see how i will change.
i’m depressed, but i have to be strong, and have to be a better me..
it is so heroic of you to declare that you are putting your entire life,betting your everything and putting your self on line to fulfill your dream of holding 1ooo feasts. i believe that thru this ministry, you can change a lot of people’s lives. w e need this kind of ministry the way the born again christians do it. their extended sunday services had enticed a lot of people to their side because of their practical, down to earth and specific preachings.. surely a lot of lives were changed because of this. i believe, change and growth come from learning and continously studying. May your DREAM come true!
Thank you God for sending us a very good and awesome preacher!
Thank you Bro. Bo for giving your life and wisdom to help us realize every single thing to bless the world!
Very inspiring.. God bless us indeed!
thank you Bro. Bo, this really inspire me. I hope I can be little like you. Please pray for me, I want to bring our entire family into God’s service. More power and God bless you more and more every day.
very inspiring message that anyone needs to know, read and understand. by means of these message and if we put it inside our heart the whole world will change their belief that we are under one and only GOD that no need to debate about God’s words, because GOD’s works is unquestionable and made it because of a certain reason. thank you for spreading this and touching our hearts
Dear Bro. Bo,
Thank you for another inspiring article. You really are a blessing to others.May God continue to bless you so that you can continue the great work you are doing for others.

True , Life well lived, is one who devotes every minute in loving the Lord in serving others. ” How can you say you love the Lord Whom you cannot see, if you do not love your neighbor whom you see… ” says our Lord. Doing well our part in this Orchestra of life, God’s Orchestra; wether you are a guitar, a drum, a clarinet, a trumpet, an oboe, a saxophone, a violin, a piano; if you do your part well, we all will become a sweet melody, a fragrant harmonious song offering of ourselves to our Lord ! … Never counting the cost, the efforts, the distractions on our way, coz love prevails in all we do. God will provide on what we are to say, what we are to preach as His obedient instruments. God’s Love is just so irresistible and full of joy and comfort to the soul. Like Mother Teresa said, ” If you do good, people will say all kinds or manners of things against you , just do good anyway. It is between you and God anyway… ”
May we all respond to God’s call to love and serve others as He loves us; like this is all that matters in our existence; great or small tasks if done well, is pleasing to the Lord . True, life is very short / a very short song, ” we are all but dust in the wind, ” ” we are here today and gone tomorrow .” But God’s Love prevails / never never ends in our Heavenly Home !!!
Be happy !
Have a very good day !
God Bless us all !

. . many years ago, after our discipleship program (BLD), we signed a covenant with the Lord and it was a wonderful experience to do service for others. . .but then all was gone when my wife was hired as a teacher here in New York, few years later we have experienced some “storms” in our life. . .first I lost my father whom I missed him the most, then my son had an accident (thank God he survived, but then we suffered financially). . .many more things happened and now my wife. . .I can’t tell you more, just that we need prayers. . .for my family.
thank you for sharing this Bo. . .I guess b4 I go. . .I’ve to fullfill the “covenant” I made and probably extend my territory. . .God Bless us all!!!
The stories that you share are truly inspiring. I’ve read the book, Prayer of Jabez, and it greatly influenced me.
hi Bro.Bo..i was a regular attendee of the Feast Marilao but now am here at Derbyshire, UK..i hope you could bring the Feast over here..
yes Lord! send me..here I am! :D:D:D:
Thank you again for such a powerful inspiration. Sometimes I get tired of serving, being like a baby, but God is a faithful and loving God He always seems to rev me up to forget my comforts and just be courageous enough to continue serving and loving Him despite myself. On July 2, we will be starting Kerygma Feast in Bataan and I am very glad to be one of the servants there. God is good!
bro.bo, i encountered your magazine kerygma and that was inspiring but i never get the chance to read it again. not until i see this site with your blogs. i read it after “our daily bread”…
been wanting to do a feeding program in our church but i said, will start when i have enough money to do it, this blog woke me up that what i have little now would be enough for a start.
I pray that God will use me to be a blessing.
God Bless you Bo and family

Many years ago, I drove Dad’s car. It was a sixteen-year old Mitsubishi Galant. I loved that car. But pretty soon, it was showing its age. Soon, it was conking out on me.

I’ve realized that preaching is never enough. The Word has to become flesh. After preaching for 30+ years, here’s what I noticed: At first, people will listen to the message of a messenger. But after awhile, people will want the messenger to be message itself. The life of the messenger must be the 3D movie of […] Read more »
