𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆'𝘀 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱: ‎‎‎‎Matthew 7:24–29

‎Jesus closes the Sermon on the Mount with a challenge: don’t just listen—act. It’s easy to admire His teachings, harder to live them. The storm in the story comes to both builders, reminding us that faith doesn't make us storm-proof but storm-ready. The difference lies in the foundation. Building on rock takes time, effort, and intention. It’s choosing obedience over comfort, truth over trend. When life shakes us—and it will—only those rooted in God's Word will stand firm. The sandy foundation may seem quicker and easier, but it cannot hold. This parable isn’t just about end times; it’s about everyday choices. Wisdom is not shown in knowledge, but in obedience. The one who practices Christ’s words finds not only stability but peace, even when the rain falls hard.

COMELEC dismisses disqualification petition against Aklan Board Member Gallenero

The Commission on Elections (COMELEC) First Division dismissed a petition seeking the disqualification of Aklan 2nd District Sangguniang Panlalawigan Member Jupiter Aelred G. Gallenero from the 2025 National and Local Elections in Aklan. The petition, filed by Francilito M. Castro and Neil A. Fernandez, alleged that Gallenero violated election laws by misusing public funds and employing fraudulent schemes during his campaign.

The petitioners claimed Gallenero illegally used provincial government funds to distribute ga*oline vouchers to motorcycle riders participating in a campaign motorcade. They also alleged the use of a government vehicle in the motorcade constituted a fraudulent scheme to induce campaign participation.

However, the COMELEC, in its August 6, 2025 resolution, ruled that the petitioners failed to provide sufficient evidence to support their claims. Gallenero’s defense, which included sworn statements and receipts demonstrating private funding for the ga*oline vouchers, was accepted by the Commission. The use of the government vehicle was also justified as being for the legitimate security detail of the Provincial Governor.

The Commission emphasized that the petitioners failed to meet the burden of proof, highlighting the need for substantial evidence in election disqualification cases.

The COMELEC’s decision clarifies the interpretation of Sections 261(e) and 261(v) of the Omnibus Election Code, which pertain to fraudulent schemes and the illegal use of public funds in campaigns.

Philippines leads push for greener, smarter ASEAN tourism

The Philippines is leading the way in making ASEAN tourism more sustainable and tech-savvy.

A meeting held this week in Boracay focused on a new plan to boost tourism while protecting the environment and using technology to improve things for both visitors and local communities.

Undersecretary Verna Buensuceso, speaking for Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco, emphasized the importance of this dual approach, stating: "We are committed to developing a forward-looking tourism strategy that is both digitally enabled and culturally rich.”

This means we can expect to see more eco-friendly tourism practices and better use of technology to make traveling easier and more enjoyable. This includes online booking systems, better ways to manage crowds, and programs to protect our natural beauty spots. As one official noted, the goal is to "carve pathways toward a more connected region where every visit is a shared story, every cultural encounter an opportunity for understanding, and every partnership a contribution to sustainable prosperity.”

This plan is expected to create more jobs and bring in more money, benefiting Filipinos across many sectors.

The Asian Development Bank highlighted the significant economic potential, emphasizing the need for “resilient and sustainable growth strategies.” It’s all part of a bigger effort to make the ASEAN region a leader in responsible and high-quality tourism, with the ASEAN Secretariat stressing the importance of translating "long-term vision into practical, actionable steps.”

Malay solo parents receive Php6,000 cash subsidy

One hundred eighteen solo parents in Malay received a Php6,000 cash subsidy on August 6, 2025, at the Barangay Caticlan Civic Center. The first-semester payout, administered by the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO), is part of a program aimed at providing financial assistance to solo parents in the municipality. The subsidy is intended to help alleviate financial strain and improve the living conditions of solo parents and their families.

Nationally, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is urging all solo parents to update or apply for their Solo Parent Identification Cards (S**Cs). This is crucial for accessing the expanded range of social protection services guaranteed under Republic Act 11861 (Expanded Solo Parents’ Welfare Act).

These benefits include:
✅ PhilHealth coverage (with premium contributions covered by the national government)

✅ 10% discount and VAT exemption on essential child-related purchases (up to age six)

✅ Access to housing opportunities through the National Housing Authority (NHA), subject to income eligibility.

Additional benefits include:
✅ Monthly cash subsidies from LGUs (based on income and other assistance programs)

✅ Educational support from DepEd, CHED, and TESDA.

The DSWD stresses the importance of S**C registration with the local government's Solo Parent Office (SPO) to unlock these benefits.

ERC suspends power disconnections, offers payment relief to consumers affected by storms

The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) has ordered a temporary suspension of power disconnections and is offering easier payment plans for consumers affected by Severe Tropical Storm Crising, Tropical Storm Dante, Typhoon Emong, and the enhanced Southwest Monsoon.

The advisory issued covers the billing period from July 19 to August 31, 2025, in areas declared under a state of calamity.

Distribution utilities (DUs) are directed to implement the suspension and offer flexible payment arrangements. Consumers with a monthly electricity consumption of 100 kWh or less are eligible to defer payments and settle their bills over a three-month period.

The ERC encourages affected consumers to contact their respective DUs directly to discuss specific payment terms and explore alternative arrangements. This measure aims to provide much-needed financial relief to those struggling to pay their electricity bills in the aftermath of the recent severe weather events.

𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆'𝘀 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱: ‎‎‎‎Proverbs 4:20–27

‎‎The heart, in biblical terms, is more than emotion—it’s the center of our will, thoughts, and desires. Proverbs warns us to guard it because from it flows all of life. In an age of distractions, noise, and spiritual clutter, it’s easy to let unhealthy things slip in unnoticed. Bitterness, envy, pride—these can quietly take root and distort how we live. Guarding your heart doesn’t mean isolation; it means intentionality. What you consume, dwell on, and repeat shapes your inner world. The rest of the passage urges us to watch our steps, our speech, and our gaze. It’s all connected. A guarded heart is not a closed one but a focused one—anchored in truth and aligned with God’s wisdom. When your heart is centered on Him, your life follows in clarity and purpose.
