On Forgiveness

Napaka buti ng Lord. Alam niya kung kailan lalabas ang alburuto ko, a.k.a. issues, He helps me get away with it gracefully.He loves me. And I am very much aware of what is happening to me. That time, I was so angry with him I resolve not to talk to him anymore. Besides, feeling ko lahat naman ng sasabihin nya kasinungalingan, and He may not consider me a friend in the first place. So, bakit ko sasayangin oras ko sa kanya? But I know in my heart that what I'm thinking was not right. I will be enslaved with my own selfish thoughts.Pero pinalipas muna ito ng Lord. He dealt with me last night until midnight in a gentle manner.

That moment time na naiinis ako,namasyal muna ako sa mall of Asia with group of new friends. I hope they continue to know the Lord. Then, between me and my God, I know I have to forgive. If not, maliit na lang ang tingin ko sa kanya-sa kanila. And that is bad for my health.

Besides,mahal ko ang Lord ko, i desire no one to hinder our relationship.Haay...May I continue to see people the way my Lord sees them.

How can you be?

How can you be a servant in the midst of glitze and glamour of fame?

please answer this...just wondering...

On Love life and Obedience

THE GREATEST ADVICE

Don't date because you are desperate.

Don't marry because you are miserable.

Don't have kids because you think your genes are superior.

Don't philander because you think you are irresistible.

Don't associate with people you can't trust.

Don't cheat. Don't lie. Don't pretend.

Don't dictate because you are smarter.

Don't demand because you are stronger.

Don't sleep around because you think you are old enough and know better.

Don't hurt your kids because loving them is harder.

Don't sell yourself, your family, or your ideals.

Don't stagnate! Don't regress.

Don't live in the past.

Time can't bring anything or anyone back.

Don't put your life on hold for possibly Mr/Mrs Right.

Don't throw your life away on absolutely Mr Wrong because your biological clock is ticking.

Learn a new skill.Find a new friend.

Start a new career.

Sometimes, there is no race to be won.

Only a price to be paid for some of life's more hasty decisions.

To terminate your loneliness, reach out to the homeless.

To feed your nurturing instincts, care for the needy.

To fulfill your parenting fantasies, get a puppy.

Don't bring another life into this world for all the wrong reasons.

To make yourself happy, pursue your passions and be the best of what you can be.

Simplify your life. Take away the clutter. Get rid of destructive elements: abusive friends, nasty habits, and dangerous liaisons.

Don't abandon your responsibilities but don't overdose on duty.

Don't live life recklessly without thought and feeling for your family.

Be true to yourself.

Don't commit when you are not ready.

Don't keep others waiting needlessly.

Go on that trip. Don't postpone it.

Say those words. Don't let the moment pass.

Do what you have to, even at society's scorn.

Write poetry. Love Deeply. Walk barefoot. Dance with wild abandon.

Cry at the movies. Take care of yourself.

Don't wait for someone to take care of you.

You light up your life.

You drive yourself to your destination. No one completes you - except YOU.

It is true that life does not get easier with age.

It only gets more challenging.

Don't be afraid. Don't lose your capacity to love.

Pursue your passions.

Live your dreams.

Don't lose faith in your God.

Don't grow old. Just grow YOU!

When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back.

Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time.

Relationships take time and effort, and the best way to spell love is T-I-M-E because the essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves.

--Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life

Haha! I remember some people I know who are desperate to find a partner, or , another way around, married or already have kids at a very early age. This kind of news really makes my heart break.The Lord Jesus Christ prepared a LIFE for us, only if we loose our lives for Him. And having a married life is not the end point...its just a beginning of obeying God together.Besides, LIFE WORTH LIVING IS A LIFE LIVED FOR GOD. If we realize how much God gave and endured for us, we can't do anything but OBEY.Of course, everybody wants to end up in a happy ending. I have also seen people who waited for God, and had an abundant life. Not that they became rich or had romantic life together, but they have a life that seeks and obeys the Lord. Oh well, ‘nuff said. God bless us all.

***************

This was my reflections last year. Right now, my new reflection on lovelife is OBEDIENCE.Obedience not to the flesh but Obedience to God who directs the path of two people who loves Him and together would work out His plans. I thought this is freaky...hehehe...I'm not sure. But I like this kind of love story. I hope we would all learn this kind of obedience even in this portion of our lives. I thank the Lord for people who are close to my heart who did this. Accepting the love of their lives by obeying God. I have so much to learn.

Sprinkle of Grace

Yehey! I'm seeing sprinkle of grace this past few days. Thanking Him for His love and simple,meaningful gifts and Healing. I've experience once again torn in my flesh,I had pain in my lower back. I became paranoid thinking either it is a pelvic bone or kidney problem. The excruciating pain I've experienced is causing my back to arch, and its so awful I had to lay in bed. I never thought that this would be this painful because in the past I've been experiencing it but it just last for a while.But I'm experiencing the from June 5 until last tuesday.

I am convinced last tuesday that I needed check-up. Then started my worries. I texted people to pray for my health and am overwhelmed with their response.And for that, I'm grateful in the Lord for giving me people who cares and prayed and is praying for and with me.

My young nurse friends are so concerned on my health, so is my med close friends. I can say that they will be a good public servants someday because thay have a heart that cares. God bless them and I love them.

Also, our staff personally visited me that tuesday when I'm experiencing this pain.Her presence means a lot. She is my angel sent by God that time. She even went with us to the clinic for check up last wednesday. I had my urine and stool test,Blood chem and bone x-ray. The doc who checked on me is cute...hehehe...

Now, the results of the tests are ok. except for the bone x-ray that will be out next week. Meaning, the pain that I'm experiencing is due to my bones. This morning, Before I took the results of the tests, my prayer is that if they have found something wrong in me, may it be manageable to cure, I don't like bad news on my health. Because I'm also health conscious as my worship to God. To be ill because of my own doing is a sin. For He desires my body to be healthy and to do His will effectively and efficiently.

I hope to know what's wrong inside me. I hope there will be ways to minimize the pain I'm experiencing.

Confession: Our staff asked me if I cried because I'm sick and nanay is not beside me?

Answer: Yes I cried. But not because nanay is not around. Because I felt God's overwhelming presence in the midst of the extreme pain I am experiencing. Indeed, He is so close to the broken and crushed. He is so merciful, in suffering I found joy, because Jesus is with me. Praise be to our Lord Jesus who bore our sin,brokeness and frailty.

***thanks ate! for taking time knowing and checking out on me and knowing my deepest heart's desires. love you!***

Promises... Broken pROMISES...Pwe.

Grr...nababanas talaga ako kapag inaassure ako sa mga bagay na dapat mangyayari and in the end tataasan ka ng boses at sasabihin na hindi pwede. Pwe! Ang ayos ayos ng usapan tapos magkaka-gaguhan...sorry for the word. Yung bagay na hinihingi ko ay hindi malaki. And that thing that I am asking for is what I need. It is not a want. Ang capricho ko, hindi ko ginugulo magulang ko, pinaghihirapan ko yun. Naiinis lang ako sa feeling na kailangan ko magmakaawa. Sa Diyos lang ako humihingi ng awa. Kaya naiinis ako sa mga tao na feeling nila may utang na loob ako sa kanila.

*hingang malalim Lorah...hinga...

I'm home...

...and missing them. rest muna ako.

summer adventure story coming soon!

Communion and Religiosity

Communion Sunday kanina sa Capiz Evangelical church. Hindi catch-y sa akin ang theme ng church about "SUCCESS". Ayaw ko kasi ang prosperity preaching. Jesus calls us the other way.The way of the cross. But thank God for people who are faithful to God's Word and delivered God's message to God's people the way He wanted it. The story is about Zaccheus.Jesus story with this little guy has also been my favorite. Praise God for new insights and affirmed reflections on Jesus' words,..."I came to seek and save which was lost." A lost thing for me is something that is primarily owned by someone and for some reasons was lost. It is valued, It would not called and considered "lost" if the owner would not bother to search for that thing. The speaker who was a woman and the Church missionary shared to us that this kind of being "lost" is the cause of sin that we lost our dignity as human,our capicity to reach to God is lost, our relationship to God, to other humans and God's creation is lost. (medyo mabigat na theology, but she just shared these reasons how lost are we) The message was really a WOW! Kakalasing. Amazing.

Then, Communion time. I'm not excited like this before. Sabik talaga ako magcommunion. Not that I feel so good before Him today, but I never felt this feeling before na sobrang excited and meaningful ang pagreremember sa body and blood of Jesus Christ.He is so good. 2 months ako hindi nakapagcommunion. Not that I'm pasaway,Nasa mga lugar lang ako kung saan ako nilead ng Lord. Apparently, Hindi ko naabutan ang makaattend sa church na may communion. And then yun nga, napaka Holy ang moment that time.I asked for forgiveness before our Lord before taking communion. What matters that time was that I am like a child na sobrang excited to have fellowship and meet her Father.

Then, kanina sa bahay, beside our apartment there's a catholic church.Lakas nga ng bell e. Medyo napasilip ako ano ginagawa ng mga tao,Tapos na ang misa.But i saw them praying.Pwede kong isipin na nag-e-SR sila (Spiritual Retreat), I'm humbled. They have reverence for the church.I pray may God grant their deepest desire, and that is, God would reveal Himself to them.Haha!Minsan dito palpak ang Protestants. Libangan manita ng church,Hindi na nakikita ang Diyos ng church.or nabublur lang sa kapalpakan ng kapatiran. Mahirap mag Unlearn minsan. I don't blame people who drifts away,Pero dapat bumalik rin sila sa stream.Stream of unity of the Body of Christ. But those who cause division sana mag-isipisip na.Bka ibang espiritu meron yun.hahaha!

sermon ko rin sa sarili ko ito.Galing talaga ni Lord. Tinuturuan pa rin Niya ako.
