stretched...

this week had been a whew! haha! but it's kinda less stressful than the first week... [akala ko lang un!] even though konti lang yung assignments, andami naman!!! grabe!!!!!!!!!!!

pagod ka na nga sa school, tapos may pinapagawa pa sayo si Lord.. [ndi po ako nagrereklamo!!!] im just saying what i feel.. haha!

this past few weeks kase, i can really feel that God is stretching me... He wants me to do something and it's kinda hard.. but then, i'm very much thankful because i obeyed Him not knowing what to happen next.. it's just that i knew and i believed that He has a plan... and yes, He has!!! it feels so great to see God working in your life... as of the moment, i've been doing what i've never done before... and that's to share - share the Word of God.. how much He loves us... His people..

i never had the courage to share this before... but then, God moved.. and because of that decision, i can now maximize my free time.. not just studying.. but mingling to some of my classmates, talking to them, sharing the Word...

it really feels so great! because i know that God is working.. all i have to do is to obey... i remember a story that was shared to me... there was this man whom God is commanding him to push a big stone in front of Him... then he pushed... but then he didn't make the stone move... then he told God, "Lord, the stone is not moving..." then God said, "I just told you to push it.."

God is not expecting to get the best results with what He tells us to do.. what He wants is we obey Him faithfully... He is not after the destination, He is after the journey...

and so, i'm really thankful that i obeyed God and i've undergone that stage in my life wherein i've been STRETCHED! haha! that's when i felt God's love.. a lot!

Issues of the mom-heart

I've read somewhere that everyone's miserable. They're just good at hiding it. I have been trying to find out why this new season seems to be a burden to me. Don't get me wrong -- I enjoy motherhood and I love my little one but something seems to be blocking my view of experiencing it joyfully.  Callie's already 10 months and everything just dawned on me -- why I was struggling, why I can't see things the way it should be, why I felt ineffective and frustrated and depressed. I think I just had post-partum depression.  I just got back from my US business trip and I just bursted into tears a few days after while singing Jesus loves me -- as if I'm telling that to myself. I'm grateful that I have a husband who listens and understands and encourages me that I can do it! I just realized the root cause(s) of what's going on after that incident. I was too attached to Callie that I don't want her to leave my site when I'm with her. I

Maturity

I was reading a long-overdue-book and I bumped into this: I have been married for almost two years now and I suddenly reminisced my late teenage years... It was in those years when God made me realize that maturity doesn't come with age... I was younger then, when I understood this very excerpt from the book Let Me Be a Woman (funny how everything He taught me is already in this book had I not stopped reading it! Indeed His humor is amazing). I started reading this way back 2007 or 2008 only to continue it now and read this now. I stopped reading it way back then because I don't have plans of getting married yet... little did I know that He will make me understand this in His own personal way. And right now, I was like, "So Lord, You must be saying, 'I told you so..' right?" haha! ...  The key to meeting your better half starts with maturity. And maturity comes from God.   To those who are still searching for their better half, don't. Don&#

Thoughts

Exodus Moses brought Joseph's bones out of Egypt when God freed them. Joseph made his family swear under oath that when God pays them a visit, they have to carry his bones with them. Joseph mentioned that surely, God will take them to the land He promised Abraham, Isaac & Jacob. Maybe, Joseph's brothers tell this to their sons & daughters so even after x number of years, they are still reminded of Joseph's request. The Israelites know that the time will come when God will take them out of Egypt but maybe they just didn't believe so He needed Moses to perform the miracles, that they might know Him, trust Him and believe in Him. Sometimes, we know what God said and what God promised us... but when it's already in front of us, it's hard to determine that God is already moving. Why? Because we are comfortable with the misery that we are in to. It dulls our senses and makes us forget the promise of God. Be careful with where you are right now.
