I don't want flattery. I just need love.

Miracles happen every moment of our lives

October 12, 2010 - tuesday

A night I will never forget. He embraced me. Salamat Lord. :)

Salamat din Lord ha kay nag adto diri sa balay karon sila Auntie Yol, Hannah and Keasnley. Thank You so much because you've answered my prayer. :) I have helped somebody. :) Salamat jud Lord!!! You are so greatful. Kasi anina I asked You, "what can I do for You today?" Kaya thank You so much for giving me the opportunity to help my cousin and my aunt. Thank You rin po for letting me use Facebook as a medium of spreading Your Love. Thank You so much for letting me know I am loved by You. Kayo na pong bahala to my entire life. i surrender everything I have now to You. :) Help me grow stronger in faith, hope and love, o Lord. Ug unta, Papa would feel better and stronger. I love you.

from God Wants You to Know

Infinite possibilities are born of faith. Do you think that's air you breathe; that's earth you walk on? All matter is God's creation. And the source is faith. When you have so much faith that you become one of faith, infinite possibilities open to you.

Dear Lord..

I want to be the best of whoever I could be, please help me. Help me also to accept things as they are, if I really could not do anything to make it better. Help me to glorify Your name all my life.

"Eventually I came across another passage. This is what it said: I am not commanding you, but I want to test the sincerity of your love by comparing it to the earnestness of others. The words made me choke up again, and just as I was about to cry, the meaning of it suddenly became clear. God had finally answered me, and I suddenly knew what I had to do.

I couldn't have made it to the church any faster, even if I'd had a car. I took every shortcut I could, racing through people's backyards, jumping fences, and in one case cutting through someone's garage and out the side door. Everything I'd learned about the town growing up came into play, and although I was never a particularly good athlete, on this day I was unstoppable, propelled by what I had to do. I didn't care how I looked when I arrived because I suspected Hegbert wouldn't care, either."

"Even more than I, perhaps, he had to keep up his spirits around Jamie, and the stress of doing so was wearing him down."

"She was pale, so very pale, but her smile let me know she was still fighting. "

" I cannot adequately describe the intensity of what I was feeling at that moment. Love, anger, sadness, hope, and fear, whirling together, sharpened by the nervousness I was feeling."

"In my mind it was the first time God had ever spoken directly to me, and I knew with certainty that I wasn't going to disobey."

"I know that some of you may wonder if I was doing it out of pity. Some of the more cynical may even wonder if I did it because shed be gone soon anyway and I wasn't committing much. The answer to both questions is no. I would have married Jamie Sullivan no matter what happened in the future. I would have married Jamie Sullivan if the miracle I was praying for had suddenly come true. I knew it at the moment I asked her, and I still know it today."

'In the South its a tradition to have your father beside you, but for me its a tradition that wouldnt have had much meaning before Jamie came into my life. "

'Though Beaufort has changed and I have changed, the air itself has not. Its still the air of my childhood, the air of my seventeenth year, and when I finally exhale, I'm fifty-seven once more. But this is okay. I smile slightly, looking toward the sky, knowing there's one thing I still haven't told you: I now believe, by the way, that miracles can happen. "

"Learning To Breathe" by Switchfoot

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVGV7acQ5TA&feature=related

Hello, good morning, how you do?

What makes your rising sun so new?

I could use a fresh beginning too

All of my regrets are nothing new

So this is the way that I say I need You

This is the way that I'm

Learning to breathe

I'm learning to crawl

I'm finding that You and You alone can break my fall

I'm living again, awake and alive

I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies

Hello, good morning, how you been?

Yesterday left my head kicked in

I never, never thought that

I would fall like that

Never knew that I could hurt this bad

So this is the way I say I need You

This is the way that I say I love You

This is the way that I say I'm Yours

This is the way, this is the way

You inspire me, Landon.

Lord, thank You for giving me the opportunity to comfort or be a part of the sadness of my friend. Sana po I had been able to show him that I care. I pray for the soul of his father and all the souls in the purgatory.

Lord, I have one thing to ask from You, unta mapanatili nako akong sacrifice for the people. Lord, I hope this would work. Help me to love my neighbor and not just myself. Help me in ignoring my personal desires especially those of love life. TSK! That should be a big NO! :) Another thing Lord, please help Quenny, Sophia, Mycah, Raichelle, Juna, I, and some of my analytical chemistry (lecture) classmates to pass this subject this semester - for a good reason po. :) I hope you would help us to be honest po.. :) And tama! I pray for John Ray to pass our analytical chemistry (laboratory) subject, Lord. I hope I can grow to be a helpful and loving person. I trust in You.

Thank You! Thy will be done. :D

Salamat Lord! Tama akong spelling sa Cayetano Arellano.. :) At least, naa na koy 2 points. :) Thanks po! :D

Thank You Lord!

I need to do something right.

Hello po!

Karami po ng nangyari today. I cannot believe I used up all my confidence for this activity . As in, kapoy na, ulaw pa.. gosh.. You want more? Hahahahaha! Pero thank You pa rin!! :) I have learned an important lesson today.. Stepping up for something good should be in my mind always if I had already stepped up for something almost nonsense. Thank You po, so much, for being with us today.. I can't believe na may nag react sa amin and I can't believe na nagawa po namin iyon.. :) For all these things, I will always thank You. You have always been here with us. :) Salamat po kasi ang nasakyan namin ay mga walang boom-boom music na mga jeepneys.. :) At least maka-focus ang passengers sa answerer at singer. I really am very happy kasi at least nakabawi po ako sa aking pagka late. :) I am really so sorry po for not coming on time. Pero thank You po for giving me the opporunity to go to church!!! i am so happeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! :))

My soul finds rest in God alone, my salvation comes from Him.

He alone is my rock, my salvation, my fortress. I shall never be afraid..

Teehee!

"You don't just look beautiful, you really are beautiful."

Lord, salamat for helping me accept and appreciate my limitations.
Please guide me in my growth. :)

Real simplicity is when you finally reached contentment after exhausting all your God-given gifts. :)

Thanks for telling me.. ;)

Thank You!

Forever I will sing of the goodness of the Lord!

Forever I will sing of His love! :)

Thank You so much for the strength and for filling me with Your love. :) Thank You for Your sweet embrace! :)

I love You! :D

Today is Mama Mary's feast day! :)

108 days to go before Christmas! :)

It was so amazing what happened to me yesterday. :) You know what? Hahahahahahahaha! i am so happy. :) No class on English because it was a debate day for batch 1, i belonged to batch 2. ;) Batch 2 were supposed to practice their part in the live show. ;) But we weren't able to do it, therefore, I was given more time to study analytical chemistry. :) But still I think I haven't studied enough so I decided not to attend my mathematics class so I can study chemistry some more to be really ready for the exam. :)

Finally, examination time came. :) Hahahahaaha! i was shocked because my classmates and I were unexpectedly entertained by a teacher whom we do not know. :O Okay, so we were to evaluate our teacher in chemistry that time. ;) Hahahahha! After the evaluation, almost 1/3 of our time was consumed. I was thinking, " My gosh! Perhaps the exam would be postponed because we don't have enough time." Teeheee! :)). But, no. Our teacher arrived a few minutes after the evaluation. But I was so happy because while answering, I found that the exam was a thousand times easier than our usual exams. ;) hahahahahaha! I'm so happy, because I would have a chance to pass analytical chemistry. Gosh! God is sooooooooooooo good!!!! :)))

Yeah, while I was answering the exam, our teacher returned the results of our previous exams to us. I was really shocked because I got my highest grade ever for an exam on analytical chem, 79% :) Wooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooo! I was so happy.

What's more? Hahahahahahha!

While waiting or my friend to finish his concerns in the internet reservation area, I saw my crush.................................... Hahahahhahahaha! I was .... speechless a t that instant. Imagine! We're only a meter apart. hahahhhaa! :)) I never really expected that. :)

In our programming class, I also didn't expect that I was going to finish my program just in time. We were already using NetBeans and at that instant, I became more interested with Java programming. :) I appreciated it more. ;)

Hahahaha! :)

For all these happiness I've felt inside, I thank the Lord for these. :) He made all these possible to happen. :) I thank You my Shepherd, Savior, Lover of my soul. I offer all my days to You, God. :)

I was so amazed with what He has done for me yesterday. Our PE (physical education) classes were held on Saturdays. I was enrolled in PE3 for basketball. Gosh! We are going to have our 3 versus 3 game and I was not really prepared. :) We are going to fight with other girl teams and many of them are really good in basketball, especially in shooting. But I really don't know what happened, you know. We had a game with one of our classmates and we were able to win it. It was actually a tie and we had to break it. We have to break the tie by shout-outs. And men, I really am not a good shooter. Huhuhu. I don't how I did it but I shot the ball in the basket. :) So the score for one shout-out is 3 -2, in favor of our team. We won! What is amazing is that because of that game, we were able to enter the battle for championship. ;) We didn't actually made it but I know I haven't done every thing on my own. ;) It was God helping us all the way through. :) I am so glad! When I was shooting, it was Him who guided my hands to make the perfect angle. When the teams were arranged to know who fights one and the other it was Him who shuffled the papers and arranged all according to His plan. :) It was all because of Him, actually. :) What I did was just to be obedient and trust Him all the way through. :) He is there and He guides us. :)))

God bless you! :)

Hello Lord! Pasensya na po kung very mediocre jud akong mga nabuhat karon nga day. Wala na gani ko nag attend sa CYA training, wala pa jud koy nahuman na assignment. Lord, pasaylua ko. I'm really sorry Lord for the thins I have done. I'm so tired Lord. Unsaon diay ning Java programming? Lord wala ko kasabot unsa ang gusto niya ipabuhat sa ako. Gikapoy na ko Lord. Karami ba naman ng errors nitong proram ko.

Lord, I'm going through hard times now. Will You help me, please? Ayaw ko nang mag copy sa assignment ng classmates ko, Lord. Help me to do this in the name of goodness and truth. Lord, help me po. I surrender everything to Your will. :)

Thank You! :)

I love You because You loved me first.

Acceptance

Sometimes I feel very sad in not being able to get high scores in examinations and quizzes.

But now, I have realized that if I am to serve my country, my fellow men, and the Lord, I should not settle for mediocrity. I should not be contented for leasts. I should be well trained for service. I should be good and excellent in quality. I may not be able to learn all these things now but I know I will if it is His will, some time.

Then I thought, "I couldn't be good at all things, I could not be super brilliant. I could only be the person who He wants me to be. ;)

I thank You Lord for making me realize all these. :)

Pascal's Prayer

"Lord, help me to do great things as though they were little, since I do them with Your power; and little things as though they were great, since I do them in Your name. "

~ Blaise Pascal (ODB)

DISCERN

It used to irritate me when people give unsolicited advice knowing they don’t practice what they preach.

I would speak my mind. Sometimes it led to heated debates with people I previously judged as self-righteous.

It took some time before I realized that I would need to discern if, at a particular moment, it was actually God talking to me, relaying His message through a certain person.

So now, I constantly try to separate the message from the messenger and discern if the pieces of advice are meant for my benefit to be able to serve the Lord better.

It’s hard and exciting. These are wonderful opportunities for me to stop judging people and allow them to surprise me with God’s messages.

At the same time, I try to be mindful of what I say so I know I’m practicing what I’m preaching.
