*A BLESSED CHRISTMAS*




labyu cuz, mwuah


Nag hang ung fone ko sa dami ng nagtxt kninang umaga. Aww. That's one of the reasons why I've said, i'm so blessed;)


Each day,I'm realizing more and more how blessed I am. Simply because I have God, I have his son in my heart, the greatest gift that I received and that's my Lord Jesus Christ. Hm, Whatever pains i've felt, all that I've been through and going through this season, I let it be freed, forgotten & forgiven. I'm not hypocrite to tell u dat I'm not wounded, within my heart, I am. But I have God, who is mighty, to love, to save and so mighty to heal. It's not hard to forgive when there's Jesus that lives in you. It's because of him I just cry then think of everything as if I fell in the ground, wounded and he will always be ready to get me up & lovingly heal my wounds. To comfort me and make me strong of all my life's battle.


I was packed with my emotions lately. I'm crying every night,embracing my pillow & praying intimately. But each morning I open my eyes, i see every hope in my tears that when God gives you another day to live, there's always another hope to cope with. I believe God is just molding me into it's finest, to take another step of the stairs, another level of trust, faithfulness & maturity, of loving & knowing him. My smiles are the product of God's grace, of his indefatigable love, the love that has no limits & boundaries.


He makes me take the negativity of one thing, positively. He turns my trials into triumph, he changes my weakness into strength. I would thank God forever, i won't regret anything when I've started to accept Jesus in my heart & decided to follow him. Because God uses even those circumstances in my life, to be the person that I am now. I love God, I love Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I'm happy. I'm healed. And I'm so blessed! I would forever celebrate that Christ was born within my heart.;) Merry Christmas!

*1 HOUR AND 43 MINUTES BEFORE CHRISTMAS, I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRIST, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!;)*























A Gift for You:

Just as you give gifts to your loved ones, God is offering you a gift as well: the gift of complete forgiveness, freedom from sin, and eternal life with Him in heaven. Just like you must accept a Christmas gift for it to be yours, you must accept God’s gift of salvation. Here is how you can accept this free gift this Christmas:
1. God Loves You!The Bible says, "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life"
The problem is that:
2. All of us have done, said or thought things that are wrong. This is called sin, and our sins have separated us from God.
The Bible says “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” God is perfect and holy, and our sins separate us from God forever. The Bible says “The wages of sin is death.”The good news is that, about 2,000 years ago,

3. God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins.
Jesus is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life and then died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. “God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.”Jesus rose from the dead and now He lives in heaven with God His Father. He offers us the gift of eternal life -- of living forever with Him in heaven if we accept Him as our Lord and Savior. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by Me."God reaches out in love to you and wants you to be His child. "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe on His name." You can choose to ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and come in to your life as your Lord and Savior.
4. If you want to accept Christ, you can ask Him to be your Savior and Lord by praying a prayer like this:
"Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you always."
Merry Christmas everyone! Godbless;)

*I STILL SURVIVE, ALL BECAUSE OF HIM*


Date today is December 21, 2007. It feels so long when I last posted an entry on my blog. That was December 2, all about our Business Day. Since I started the Christmas Vacation, I’ve been through a lot of meetings, appointments, and tasks done and doing up to now. Musta nman un, Parang hindi rin nagbakasyon dba? Hm, that’s the reality of my life, of being a public servant. Almost everyday, I have an appointment, I mean, everyday. Yah, it is. My family, even my friends know that. I go in different places, doing lots of things, thinking about countless thoughts that are passing, and have to be on my mind. Left and right I hear various requests, advices, opinions, ideas and definitely, I sometimes don’t know what am I gonna do, where and whom I would listen. It’s never easy. You have to value these, those and all that. I’m truly bleeding in, and out. It pains me to think of many things, to shoulder loads of heaviness about the youth, my family, my friends and myself. Esp Youth of our church, Youth of our community. Plus thinking about my schooling, my ministry, my work, my responsibilities in SK PSC & SK Federation. Waaw. How was that?.. Sigh.. ;’C

It’s tiring, physically, mentally, socially & emotionally. Yet I thank God because there’s a certain piece in my life that I never get tired of. It’s to dwell on him whenever I feel upset, disappointed and fully stressed. My Spiritual life makes me well-built. GOD is the only reason why I go on, why I still do what I needed to, why I cry, laugh, dance, sing, and carry the burdens that I have. GOD is the only reason why I still want to live. I can’t see anything than the purposes that he wants me to fulfill. He still needs me, and the people he put in my life. I’m tired, but it’s God that I depend and hold on to. I can’t really imagine my world out of him. He is my everything, my all in this life.

These past days, I’ve been crying every night, when nobody sees me, I cry so hard. I pray & talk to God eagerly. I always want to be with him and tell him all that I’m feeling, the deepest need inside me. Nobody knows, even my very best friend. But God alone, he knows everything that I’ve been & I’m going through. That’s why, I love God. I love him dearly. He understands everything, and he is constantly loving me. He shows me mercy, generosity and not the very unfair scene that this world offers.

Hm, it’s only four days to go before Christmas. I’ve received many gifts, from different places and people, but I don’t know yet what to give to the one who would celebrate his birth, who deserves a gift. It’s Jesus Christ’s day, his very special day. If I could give him the most expensive gift, I would, but he doesn’t need it. What he needs is his Lordship, as my friend’s dad shared to me last Christmas, Jesus wants his Lordship to be valued. To follow him as our Personal Lord in our lives. Hm, I take action, however I fail to do it at times. But by God’s grace, I’ve been through a lot of tests, course since I accepted & obeyed Jesus . The tests of obedience that bring forth blessings in my life, which is extremely, awfully, abundant. God has been so good, so wise of giving his only son Jesus, to rule our lives. If only we will let him. Hm, letting Jesus be your Personal Lord and Savior can’t compare anything in this world. Things will happen out of your expectation, more than you thought it will, more than you’ve ever imagined. His and his father’s love is limitless, unconditional & can’t be found anywhere else. Feel the spirit, this Christmas and don’t forget to thank the real reason for these seasons. ;) Merry Christmas & a Blessed New Year to all of you!

*THE JOURNEY OF FAITH*


The Lord had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people, and
your father's household and go to the land I will show you." (Genesis 12:1)
It seems to me that the journey of faith is not such an easy to
follow map. It is a one-step-at-a-time kind of experience. When God
called Abraham to leave his hometown and follow Him, Abraham was
given no map, no set of directions. He didn't even know his
destination. God just said, "Get up and go to a land that I will show you."
Abraham was expected to go where God led him, a step at a time, a day
at a time. There were no guarantees that the journey would be easy.
He had a lot of heartache along the way, his share of danger, and the
painful introspection of living with postponed hopes.
Yet he is living as a man of faith.
God doesn't promise us a life of mountaintop experiences. There will
be valleys to go through, too. Dark valleys. Disorienting valleys.
Valleys of depression and despair. What He promises is not a road map
that will give us a detour around those valleys, but that He will
walk through those valleys with us.
When we emerge from those experiences, we look back and realize that
that's where the growth is. It isn't on the mountaintops, above the
timberline; it's in the valleys.

** DEAR LORD, You never promised me a rose garden; you never said
that this world would be easy. But you have promised me that in times
of joy and in times of difficulty you will always be with me. As I
pass through the valley of adversity in my life, please grant me the
faith and strength to face them. Take away all my fears, and let me
just hold Your hand as I continue my journey of faith. Thank You, Lord.
Iloveyou;)

*YOU ARE BLESSED*


If you woke up this morning with more health than illness..........

you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle,

the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation.......

you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back,

a roof overhead and a place to sleep...

you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet,

and spare change in a dish someplace.......

you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
If your parents are still alive and still married........

you are very rare, even in the United States.
If you hold up your head with a smile on your face

and are truly thankful.....you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.
If you prayed yesterday and today........you are blessed because you believe God does hear and answer prayers.
If you can read now, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all. ;)

*I CAN'T IMAGINE MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU*


As long as stars shine down from heaven

And the rivers run into the sea

Til the end of time forever

You’re the only love I’ll need
In my life you’re all that matters

In my eyes the only truth I see

When my hopes and dreams have shattered

You’re the one that’s there for me
When I found you I was blessed

And I will never leave you, I need you
Chorus:

Imagine me without you

I’d be lost and so confused

I wouldn’t last a day, I’d be afraid

Without you there to see me through
Imagine me without you

Lord, you know it’s just impossible

Because of you, it’s all brand new

My life is now worth

whileI can’t imagine me without you
When you caught me I was falling

You’re love lifted me back on my feet

It was like you heard me calling

And you rush to set me free
When I found you I was blessed

And I will never leave you, I need you
Chorus
When I found you I was blessed

And I will never leave you,

I need you oh



I can't imagine me without you....^^.)



- I was excused in my 12-4pm subjects cause I needed to attend a meeting for AlayLakad O7 for the SK Chairman.. My Profs gladly approved Mayor's letter.;) As I went there, I reallly didn't know anyone as my Co- Chairman, but there's this guy Raymond who approached me and asked my name.. We had short talks and afterwards, I knew that he is also a Born Again Christian.. Thank God, feel like I'm only at fellowship.. He is also a member of the music ministry, a Pastor's Kid and Sk Chairman at the same time. ;) We talk about the youth and our plans for them.. We both have the desire to reach out.. I believe God does not really make things accidentally, he always has a great purpose..;) Nice to know that I have the same spirit in my chairmanship..;) Then as people went inside the Conference Room, Sk Chairman from other Barangays approached me, asked for my name and contact number.. They were really nice.. I met Raymond, Bian, Abiel, Lloyd, Jem, Joan and her Secretaries Ate Ruby, Kuya Dave and the other guy that I can't remember the name.. hehe.. I have lots of thoughts that come in and out of my mind that's why I can't focus in memorizing their names.. but so nice meeting them..;) I also went to Mayor's Office to follow up my request in the approval of our venue for our Church Concert. Thank God again, being an Sk Chairman has really an advantage, I was able to be assessed easily;) My sitch nin also joined us, she waited for me while I'm having a meeting and right after our conference with Sir Denis, we all had dinner treat of Abiel, who's gonna be running as the Sk Chairman for the whole Sta. Rosa..


Dinner finished at around 8pm then I arrived home by 9 I think.. Then again another dinnner this coming Sat, weew..My sched is really hectic, I'm really having hard time to make decisions for an apointment.. I told them that I would just inform them if I can be there.. Yah, that's the scenerio of the day.. very stressful, busy, full of thoughts yet God keeps my heart healthy and blessed.. It's already late at night while I'm doing this, my mind can't even think well, but God makes it enough to function. He is my strength in the field of my ministries, studies and chairmanship.. In all areas, Everything in my life, HE is.. THE REAL SOURCE.. He renews my strength to face each new day.. He builds my goals and embraces my hopes and lovingly protects a heart that trusts.. God has a lot more to teach me, a lot more of showing his love for me.. HE IS MY ALL IN THIS LIFE, so the genuine message of this encounter is that, I can't really imagine my life without him.. really can't;)


I love you always Lord..^^.

*AS THOUGH IT WAS YOUR LAST*

w/ my nephew jai.

THIEF OF ALWAYS
- Jaci Velasquez


Before the winter chill has gone,

the springtime rivers rise.

Before the setting sun has disappeared,

the moon is rising high.

And time waits for no man,

seasons come and go.

In the midst of an ever-changing world

this is one thing I know.

CHORUS

You've got to live every moment

as though it was your last,

before the thief of always

steals tomorrow from your grasp.

Before the chance to know His love

has somehow passed you by,

let your heart reach out

right here,

right now

for the Lord to touch your life.

Before the trees have shedtheir autumn gold

to leave the barest bark,

the frost beneath our feet

will sparkle brightlike crystals under the sky.

And time waits for no man,

seasons come and go.

In the midst of an ever-changing world

there is one thing I know.

REPEAT CHORUS

Don't ever doubt that God

can life us high.

Allow the flame of heavento be our guide.


-Early in the morning God woke me up with his sweet embrace.. Yes, another Sunday, another day to make up things and live for him.. As I sit with my churchmates inside the church, something really captured my heart, it's hearing the Thief of Always sang by Ate Noreen as her special number. It really made me cry.. Especially when I heard the message of the song,
"You've got to live your life, as though it was your last. Before the thief of always, steals tommorow from your grasp."


This has been a very blessed Sunday.. I'll continue sharing all those touching encounters I've faced for the whole day.. Yeah, live your life to the fullest with GOD. Always and Forever.. Live for him..
I love you w/ much love Lord, I love you mom and dad, kuya, sis in law, niece &nephew.. I love you titas and titos and cousins.. I love you churchmates, I love you bestfriends and friends.. ;)

*ONE FRIDAY*



Hm, I was late in my first sub.. Things appear bugged. It was my choice of course, I wanted to sleep more while rain was pouring heavily early morning around 5am, than to get up and prepare for school. I was late, because I made it; I didn’t make it well on the recitation, because I didn’t study my notes with intention. I’m not faultless, totally not perfect. Yeah, those are some of little rusty habits that vah usually does, that she can’t easily keep away from. Weew, I’m sorry Lord.. I’m dwelling again in my comfort zone..;) But I’ll always try not to, instead I’ll try to rebuff those ease chances, through you I know can ;)

Hm, anyway awhile ago there is that something that lingers on mind, the unspoken words inside me. Our Prof in Logic said, GOD IS PERFECT, his question is “Who made GOD?” He answered his question, Nobody, but God alone. Not a Super God, Mega God, or Ultra God, not Even the God of all seasons. And slightly laughing of what he is telling, even mixing some green jokes. Honestly, I don’t want his way of teaching, sincerity is not so evident. So whenever we have discussions, I’m discouraged to participate, thoughts that behind those reasons can possibly be somewhat laughed at. I don’t know, correct me if I’m wrong, but I have been observing it more than twice. But I hope, he’ll teach more effectively as meetings go by. In my heart I know, nobody created God, because he is God. The creator of all things but not created. He is ever present, all knowing and all powerful! Or in other words like what he said, God is the uncaused cause.




Here are more explanations I found from Christian.net:


A number of skeptics ask this question. But God by definition is the uncreated creator of the universe, so the question Who created God? is illogical, just like To whom is the bachelor married?
So a more sophisticated questioner might ask: If the universe needs a cause, then why doesn't God need a cause? And if God doesn't need a cause, why should the universe need a cause? In reply, Christians should use the following reasoning:
Everything which has a beginning has a cause.
1
The universe has a beginning.
Therefore the universe has a cause.
Its important to stress the words in bold type. The universe requires a cause because it had a beginning, as will be shown below. God, unlike the universe, had no beginning, so doesn't need a cause. In addition, Einstein's general relativity, which has much experimental support, shows that time is linked to matter and space. So time itself would have begun along with matter and space.

Since God, by definition, is the creator of the whole universe, he is the creator of time. Therefore He is not limited by the time dimension He created, so has no beginning in time God is the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity (
Isaiah 57:15). Therefore He doesn't have a cause.
In contrast, there is good evidence that the universe had a beginning. This can be shown from the Laws of Thermodynamics, the most fundamental laws of the physical sciences.
1st Law: The total amount of mass-energy in the universe is constant.
2nd Law: The amount of energy available for work is running out, or entropy is increasing to a maximum.


If the total amount of mass-energy is limited, and the amount of usable energy is decreasing, then the universe cannot have existed forever, otherwise it would already have exhausted all usable energy the heat death of the universe. For example, all radioactive atoms would have decayed, every part of the universe would be the same temperature, and no further work would be possible.
So the obvious corollary is that the universe began a finite time ago with a lot of usable energy, and is now running down.
Now, what if the questioner accepts that the universe had a beginning, but not that it needs a cause? But it is self-evident that things that begin have a cause no-one really denies it in his heart. All science and history would collapse if this law of cause and effect were denied. So would all law enforcement, if the police didn't think they needed to find a cause for a stabbed body or a burgled house.
Also, the universe cannot be self-caused nothing can create itself, because that would mean that it existed before it came into existence, which is a logical absurdity.



IN SUMMARY
* The universe (including time itself) can be shown to have had a beginning.
* It is unreasonable to believe something could begin to exist without a cause.
* The universe therefore requires a cause, just as
Genesis 1:1 and Romans 1:20 teach.
* God, as creator of time, is outside of time. Since therefore He has no beginning in time, He has always existed, so doesn't need a cause.



-I always thank God that each day of my life he makes me strong, helps me cling to the knowledgeable grounds and guides me in making wise decisions. He also teaches me to show humility, to bend myself, and to admit that at some instance, I do and get wrong. Even teaching me to forgive when someone impaired me. And the very important thing that I have to put on my mind, heart and soul, that he gives is that to have patience. To have it and to extend it with all my might all the time. Wherever I go and whatever I do. Even when my patience is going to run out, God talks to me and fill it all over again. ^^.
Really a very loving and patient GOD!;)

*CONNECT THE STRINGS, IT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU WILL*

My bestfriend Mina,

My sitch Nin
My Choogie Say,


Choogie tope,


Choogie Euri,


Choogie allan




All of us...



I miss seeing us all complete..



What’s the depiction for today? An early morning showered by raindrops ;) Yeah. A pair of shoes got soaked by water, a girl holding an umbrella which didn’t work in the midst of the heavy drizzle. At least I wasn’t late, that’s what I thank God. And yeah my day started well, prayer really works. I always begin and end my day with a prayer, I feel incomplete when I set myself in motion to see the new sun shining, or walking away from my bed without talking to the one I adore, no other than my God, my father in heaven that I dearly worship and love.

Yeah, I also became emotional after school. I do miss my choogies so much. Whom my best friend and I used to be with before. It’s just happened that, Tope had a conflict or a mess to Say, Nin and Euri. And I, also my best friend Mina, even Allan chose to be at the middle. But of course as we go with Tope, the three would stay away just to be isolated from him. Although that’s the case and its how the story goes, I made it sure to tell the three that I heard both sides, I understand them and tope, that I understand all of them. I assured that nothing is to be heard from me no matter what the situation of our friendship will go, I’m really open to both side. Of course I was sad during those initial days that they quarrel, but I planned to keep myself quiet, to just let them think what they should really be doing. All I do is just to pray that somehow they’ll realize the value of the friendship that we all once had and cherished. Uh, it’s been quite a long time ago that we all sat, talked, laughed, cried, shared stories and jokes to each other completely. I can’t even remember when that last time was. ;( I miss them and I’ll never get tired to tell them that I’m always hoping for the wholeness and unity of choogies one of these days.. Still, I thank God that after all, my friendship with Nin, Say and Euri didn’t change; even I was not with them for quite a long time. I can always see that we’re all longing for each other when we look at each other’s eyes, especially when they hug and kiss me and tell me, “Pinagpalit nyo na ata kame, huhu, I miss you choogie.” Those kinds of lambingan, the way they get my attention.. hai miss them..

I always hope for their reconciliation, I know God will make a way. He will, if only we’re going to cooperate. Someday, everybody will pick the pieces and put them back in place. I know, God can heal all wounds and he can definitely restore everything. It's really a matter of choice ;)

I sent them a message just this afternoon:

My dear, funny, yet fascinating choogies ;) Yeah. You know that I miss you all so much.. I always wanted all of u to be reconciled. All d time I hope for it, but I don't know when or how, the only way I can think is that, we should learn to forgive when someone caused us pain. But I understand everybody's perspective, I understand all of u. Despite that, I'll never make a way to see the scenario of our friendship more chaotic, instead u can always hav me hir to tell u all, dat I always love to see us complete and united. I don’t know when things will be back on its place, but I want u to know that I do value the friendship that we once had, always. I’ll keep it in my compassion forever. Although we’re far literally, my hand is within reach. I’ll always be here for all of you. Same as before. Iloveyou all, Godbless;)

Some of them haven’t read that message so I don’t know yet what they feel towards it.. But I do miss them so much and I always treasure all that we had. They are one of the precious gifts God has given me. I’ll always be here to share God’s warmth peace and love that he placed in my heart.

I miss all of you.. Hoping to see us all, completely.. I love you all..

*GOD IS MINDFUL OF US*


What a mighty God we serve.. We should be anxious for nothing;)

In Philippians 4:6 Paul writes "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God."

It is a great comfort to me to have God's word instruct me in this way. The very fact that I'm told by my heavenly Father to not be anxious is in itself reassuring. If the one who holds the universe in His hands, who causes the grass to grow, who knows when a single sparrow falls out of the sky, and who has the power to raise the dead from their graves tells me not to be anxious I believe I have cause to trust him.

But bless God, he does not leave us with an instruction only, left to infer from it and his character that all will be well. No, he goes on to give us the reason for not being anxious, namely we have a God who hears our prayers, is interested in the details of our lives and answers our petitions according to his perfect will and our eternal good. The very reason we can obey this instruction is because we can pray to the God in heaven and that with thanksgiving.There is no reason to fear or doubt that our prayers will go unheeded. He has told us that he knows us and will never suffer our loss. Therefore, when we take our concerns to our loving eternal father we do so with a heart full of hope and gratefulness, knowing that he who cares for the lilies cares infinitely more for his children.;)
HE THINKS OF US ALWAYS, HE IS MINDFUL OF US.;)

*I LIVE FOR YOUR GLORY*



Evermore my heart will say, above all, I live for your glory;)


It’s the second day of the week, I’m flooded with many assignments. Urgh. I did all of them in school, with a span of only 6O minutes. Why didn’t I make it before I went to school? Nice question, only because I don’t know where to put my assignments, in a notebook or at the yellow paper. My classmates didn’t know it too. It’ll be a waste of time to do and write it uncertainly and just transfer it again. Those assignments are to be checked at 2pm in my logic sub and 3:30pm at my next sub, Phy Scie. Yeah, after our subject in Business Stat, at 12pm, I got missed calls and many text msgs from my mom, telling me that I need to go at Mayor’s Office at 1pm to have fitted my SK Chairman’s Uniform. Wah, goodness, I feel the pressure, I haven’t done my assignments even in Logic to think it is my 2pm subject. If I will go there I might arrived late in school because of a heavy traffic and can’t be able to do my assignments anymore.

Hoo, I breathe deeply. Silently prayed in my heart and asked Lord to help me make it, as easy as it can be done that way. 30 min is just left to do my assignments because I must leave at school at 12:30pm. As I start doing, God willingly did too. He helped me. Ideas came to me continually and effectively, I was able to finish my essay in Logic for more than the required 300 words within 30 min. Our Prof told us to write our philosophy in life and there I put all that God has planted in my heart. I find myself blessed after reading what I wrote; it was another chance to share his word. Yeah, I was also able to finish my assignment in Phy Scie. Praise God! Then I bid my short goodbye to my best friend, because as I said I’m going to Mayor’s Office and be back right after. My best friend was still busy doing her assignment too, that’s why she wasn’t able to come with me, of course I understand. And that’s fine. There are really times that I must go all by myself, especially when I need to. So I went there all alone, alone with my God, when I’m going up stairs to the office I saw the ballot boxes and it caused a smile on my face realizing that the truth is really in evidence, I remembered how many times my name was called because of the ballots inside those boxes and appreciated the people who voted for me ;) (laughs) I even took a picture of those ballot boxes while I was walking. and I said silently: "Lord, I am really here, not just a vision but a reality. The truth that I’m going to serve you and the public as well, the fact that I’m a part of those who serve my city is now embracing me more. I love you for that, I love you for everything.”

And As I’m going back at school for my 2pm class, I’m happy and relaxed. No more feeling of being hurried up, no more assignments to do. And Yeah God is not through yet in making me smile, there was no traffic, so I arrived at school early. Yey, Great God! Very sweet and loving;)


EVERMORE


Lost for words with all to say
Lord you take my breath away
Still my soul, my soul cries out
for You are holy
And as I look upon Your name
Circumstances fade away
Now Your glory steals my heart
You are holyYou are holy
You are holy Lord We say!


Chorus:


Evermore my heart, my heart will say
Above all, I live for Your glory
And even if my world falls I will say
Above all, I live for Your glory
(I live for Your glory)
(Repeat I, II and Chorus)
With all my heart I'll say
I'm living for Your name
With all to give You praise
We're living for Your glory Lord
And evermore my heart, my heart will say
Above all, I live for Your glory
And even if my world falls I will say
Above all, I live for Your glory!;)

*WITH ALL MY HEART*



Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
On school again, another Monday, another day and week to cope with. Yes, It’s all about trusting God, with all my heart. Since I started the class this sem, I really noticed something, somewhat I find to myself different. I improved. Yes I did. Before, I was not having my study habits, not even opening my notes when I’m at home. Good in recitations they say, but for me it was not that so well. But now I know, through God’s power and wisdom, I became better. I really praise him this much to point that all my heart and trust will be with him in the field of my studies. I was before a half-hearted student, half believing myself that I can do more, than the usual.
Improvement, I’ve realized is about believing yourself that you can make it, not with a half- heart but whole heartedly. And Of course, you can’t be able to succeed or go on each level without trusting God. He is wiser than you, than us and any other intelligent people. That’s the most important thing; trusting God with all your heart, and leaning not on your own understanding, definitely he will make your paths, your walks, straight ;)

*ALWAYS, REACHING FOR YOU*

Buti na lng, they provided a cap for me, ang inet. hehe. w/ Konsehala Necie and Konsehala Nene

Motorcade.. w/ kuya wacky at the back ( our clown) hehe..

w/ my councilors Maric & Lalein

@ pizza hut after our Youth Fellowship;)

Hm, what is that all about today? Sigh.. I wasn’t able to attend the morning service, because we had a Thanksgiving Motorcade. And all winners are required. Yeah, a motorcade full of fun, under the sun;) We ride at a small truck, throwing candies, waving our hands and saying our thank you to people. I wasn’t present at the morning service but my thoughts are there. It was the motorcade that happened to be a way of bringing new souls again, because of that event; I was able to take my councilors together with me at the church.;) Yeah. We had our Youth Fellowship with them after that motorcade I invited them at our church, I thank God for that chance, to remind them that he is the source of everything and God deserves our humility and our gratitude for all he has done. After all, it’s God who has been on our side, the only one who gave us Victory;)

Yeah. I’m so blessed. I always thank God for every opportunity. I pray that our ministry will multiply by his power, I can visualize that there are many more young people that God will bring in his house through me. God is constantly enthusiastic to speak that way in my heart. As my goal always and it should be my goal forever. Yeah, my plans are directed by my Lord, he will take me and I’ll follow. I’ll never get tired of praying, that soon God, I and all of us will rejoice dancing with so much joy, by reaching many hearts and souls ;)


ALWAYS

Did you rise the sun for me?
Or paint a million stars that I might I know your majesty
Is your voice upon the wind?Is everything I’ve known marks with my makers fingerprints..

Refrain:

Breathe on me, let me see your face.. Ever I will seek you..
Chorus:
Cause all you are is all I want always..
Draw me close in your arms.. Oh God..
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you.. (Jesus)

Can I feel you in the rain?
Abandon all I am to have you capture me again
Let the earth resound with praise Can you hear his all creation lives to glorify one name!

REACHING FOR YOU


"I can't believe the way
Your love has got a hold on me
Each morning I wake to find You near
You lift me above my fears
And set my feet on solid ground
All of my days belong to You
And I breathe in Your breath of life that fills my heart
You are my all consuming fire
I stand here before You
In wide opened wonder
Amazed at the glory of You
The power of heaven
Revealing Your purpose in me
As I'm reaching for you..

Yeah. I had another great day. I can always feel God's presence every single moment. Each morning I wake, I find him near;) He lifted me above my fears and set my feet on solid ground. He makes his love very evident!
All of my days belong to him;)
I love you love you LOrd.. (^^.)

*DON'T GO FOR REHEARSAL WITHOUT FEEDING YOURSELF AND YOUR SOUL;)*

Yummmm... hehe
;)

Nothing much for this day, than eating;) Yeah. We ate a lot of pansit, cookies, softdrinks, candies and of course ang ice cream na gusto nilang ubusin ko;) Weew, hehe. Masakit sa tyan actually. Trio pa. Although hindi ko naubos yung ice cream, until now I can still feel the over digestion. Ang dami ko nakain, kasi nga gusto ko tumaba, gusto nilang lahat tumaba ako.(Wish ko yan since birth. Haha). I won't lose hope. haha. Ayun, we stayed at the parking lot of our church, kumain muna ng marami bago sumabak sa practice. Hehe. I was with my cousins Jane and Jhen, and our churchmates Ate Eunice, Kuya Chad and Ate Chel.

Tapos un, nagpractice kame ng dance, interpretative dance for our concert. Kulang kami kanina, wala yung ibang participants but God’s grace for all of us was sufficient. Through him we were able to make momentous steps. Bukas ipopolish nalang;) Prayer of course, it works! Pray before you do anything and put in your heart that whatever you’ll do is for God. General cooperation and one in spirit, that’s what I saw during our practice. ;) Keep it up guys!;) Tom ule, after Sun Service, practice practice. Ayoko na mag ice cream ha, baka lagnatin na naman ako sa kakaubo. Hehe. I promise to be there after my Thanksgiving Motorcade. Pray for my councilors, I’ll bring them at our church;) Yeah, exciting. Thanks a lot guys, let’s always do our best for his glory. God deserves the best of our efforts!;) Concert is fast approaching there’s no other good idea than to prepare well. Let’s keep on helping each other. I always have great moments when we’re together. Nawawala pagod ko when I’m at church, singing, worshipping God with all of you.;) Take Care. Have a blessed Sunday to all of us tom. Keep praying, everything that we do for him is valued.;)

“Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord. Because you know that your labor in the Lord, is not in vain.”;)

*I WILL LOVE YOU LORD, ETERNALLY.*

My churchmate Ate Noreen, at Guadalajara Mexico watching a soccer game, Chivas vs.Anlante
I miss you Ate.. HAppy Birthday!
Kuya Chad and I, Friend ng Brother ko, at d same time co- minister namen sa church;) Pareho sila ng Birthday ni Ate Noreen, today. So, Happy happy Birthday! God bless you both, keep loving and serving our Almighty God!;)

Until the sunset of my life, and my last breath, I'll be loving you Lord, eternally.

Hm, What can I say about the whole day? Stressful, tiring, a little bit sad. But God made it fine at the end of the day. We met new Profs, different subjects and various acquaintances. As days of school go on, I face lots of challenges and pressures. Loads of assignments, reports and lessons to comprehend. Those are not only the things that keep going to and fro in my mind. I also have lots of plans for our church, for our Youth Ministry but I don’t know how to make them be well thought-out properly. I don’t even know how and where to start. I also have of course the feeling of being pressed of the multitude. Only days to go, I’ll be taking over the position on the 1st day of December, being an Official Sangguniang Kabataan Chairman. People go to me as early as now, mostly young people, requesting and asking Volleyball and Basketball equipments, including the net and stuffs. It’s my responsibility of course to find a way and to plan for their needs and how to address those. I have to set up it as possible as I can to the moment when I hang on the position. That’s why I still consider planning before time to make request letters to the officials of higher position. I have to make letters for Mayor, City Councilors, eventually to the Congressman and Office of the Governor. Then in school, I have lots of assignments, reports, even much quizzes too, a lot of preparation for our upcoming church concert, whole day practices and more probability of thoughts to come. Yeah, these and those. Maybe, I’m often seen by some people relaxed, cool, nothing much to reflect or just like sitting back and chewing a gum. But that’s not my life, not a bed of roses. Authority indicates responsibility. Even without authority, we’re all not free to our obligations, then much more to those who have bigger tasks. Some people won’t like you especially when you make a mistake, just a single mistake, or that in their eyes you don’t make your role sufficiently. Even I haven’t experienced it again, I’m ready to that, and it is a factual part and a true scenario in our lives. Admit it. But it is God who makes me strong in and out, makes my heart braced and protected.
I’m tired but I’m happy, I’m stressed but I’m delighted, I’m not at ease but I’m blessed. God gives me strength when I need it, making it new every moment like an eagle that soars day after day. He is the foundation of everything established in my heart. I prayed for these, the whole thing I’m going to face before I enter this ground. All these are parts of my expectations. More work, more responsibility, more test and more challenges. I’m not surprised; I can only feel it visibly. Thank God because I have him, he prepared my heart for all of these and promised that if will put me on a certain place, he will be with me, back to back, side by side and at every corner of my journey. To guide me every step of the way.

I’m called for a purpose, to live for a cause. All my cries, sobs and sighs will be taken away by the gentle arms of my God. He is my comforter, my all in this life. HE WILL BE MY HOPE ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE.

But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31


With all my heart I will thank him in any state I am at, when God has called you to do something, at the end of it all you will realize that he is with you from the very start til the very end. He is the Alpha and Omega. The first and last. He’ll be with you forever;)

I also had a time of chatting with my friend this night, a hard to understand friend of mine. He is also a Christian. While our conversation goes serious, he pleaded me to see something on video to click then watch and listen to it very well, as I do I found myself a cry baby in seconds, I didn’t cry literally but I shouted and was really scared. Something appeared on the monitor that was really creepy. I don’t know if I’ll be angry on him or what. But I did express feelings of being mad then I just forget it. Again, I just extended my patience, (so many patience na to you. Ehe) He said, “Peace, peace! Ice Breaker lang yon, serious ka kasi.” Then he continually showing me things he taught I’ve never seen like optical illusions, and that. Even something that really amazed me. Amazed us. A part of conversation I’ve said, “I want to si Jesus n nga eh.” He stopped typing for more than 5minutes, stopped responsing to what I said then I sent him a Buzzer to wake him up and asked him if he is still there, he said immediately, “Opo, may iniisip lang ako.” Hm, then I asked him about it, ayaw nya sabihin. I can feel inconvenience; I know there’s something not good on his mood. I can sense the burden but he never wanted to tell me anything that bothers him, not even once. Hai, I just felt a bit sadness about it because he still haven’t changed his way. He makes me clueless, almost everytime. Until I felt sleepy and finally said to him “Goodnight na, take a rest and pray. Godbless.” He put something on my mind na naman to think about what is it. But all I do now is just to pray for it. God knows everything, all that we both are going through. I pray that sooner he will overcome his fear of sharing his thoughts to mine. Before I sleep I will leave you a wonderful message from God. Take Care!

Be strong and courageous, do not be terrified, do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you, wherever you go. Joshua 1:9;)

Again to my dear churchmates. My Bro and Sis in Christ, Ate Noreen and Kuya Chad;) Happy Birthday to Both of you! God Bless!;)

*TOTALLY BACK TO SCHOOL*



We were caught nagdadaldalan, hehe. Buti hindi kami pinagalitan and thank God we were able to recite at our PubSpea class;) Me & my Bex, in Australia & Canada? hehe. At our classroom. But someday we'll get there.God's grace abounds!;)

Hm, PecoMic was my first sub, mejo late ako. hehe. Buti kakadating lang ni mam nung dumating ako. Eun, review bout our past lessons sa PecoMac related kasi yon to our new sub now. As always, Mam Cabalsa our Prof, remains funny, jolly and get us through her jokes. Nakakatawa talaga un si Mam, although madami xa kwento, marami ka rin matututunan from her. We share big laughs during class but syempre you really have to pay attention during her discussion or else, hehe. Hm, She's one of those colossal challenges that I see at Perpetual. Basta minsan napapagalitan din ako ni mam, but I know para rin naman yun sakin, kaya I take it positively.

Sila ni Sir Dulfo, they are full of knowledge. Namiss ko tuloy si Sir, when my Bex and I ate at food plaza near school, treat nya kme. hehe. Tapos kasabay namin xa kmain, had some talks, laughs and advices. I'll never forget what he said to me bago pa ako manalo, that was last sem. Since he is a Law Prof, nabanggit ko ung rights ng youth and asked him what more can he share to me as a candidate and advancing on politics. He just told me habang kumakain kame "Kayang kaya mo yan, ikaw pa. Magaling ka naman dyan sa explanation, pati sa written eh." Wow, Glory to God. I never thought that Sir Dulfo still remembers my writings. First Year pa namin xa prof, I didn't have any idea that he likes my way of explaining, that my essays make his thumb up. Yeah yun si Sir! hehe. Kaso pag nakikita nya ko madalas nyang sabihin di ako tumataba. hehe. Nwei, those recollections encourage me a lot, gave me courage to continue being fond of writing, sharing and learning new things.

Also kanina, we had our Public Speaking Class where of course we're required to speak in English. We were told to share our dreams, plans and goals in the future. I was able to share only some because of the time allotted. But I have many dreams, too long to share. I'm going to write it down in my previous blog "WRITE DOWN YOUR DREAMS." I have lots of dreams, huge dreams for my life, great plans and constant goals connected to the direction, leading and provision of my Lord. By Faith in him and by working with my faith, All those things are possible. Remember that WE HAVE A VERY LOVING GOD, A GENEROUS FATHER. Giving all that his children need. Even at times, we don't deserve to have it, still he gives and that's one of the proofs of his gracious works. We just have to give him thanks in any situation of our lives, in anything that we have because he certainly has a purpose. We must use all that he has given us for multiplication and for his glory.

God never wanted us to suffer, to be harmed. But he always wants us to prosper. To have a future and a prosperous life. ;)


For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

What a beautiful promise.. Just put your hope in him, after all it's about choice, so choose to follow and make your dreams with God!;) He is true to his promises, forever!;)
