dance... dance... dance...

Christ within me
He's in me
the river of life
Christ within me
Dwells within me
To Him i'm glorified...

waaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh... that's the first song that my batch in dance ministry danced a while ago... january 30, 2005 - first time na sasayaw ung mga trainees sa dance!!!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh... and ndi ako kasama dun!!!!!!!!!! grabe!!! kanina ngang 2nd service gusto kong maiyak habang nagsasayaw sila kase ndi ako kasama e... waaaaaaaaahh... =c

pero ok lang.. on the other hand, alam kong God has a purpose kung bakit ndi Niya ako in-allow na sumayaw... and i understand that... ndi pa ako ganun kaayos... mas maganda kung magpapa-ayos muna ako sa Kanya... and nagsisimula na... haha!!!

dun sa sermon kanina sa service talagang tinamaan ako... whew! God made me realize na ndi ko Siya nasunod at [some?] areas in my life... haaaaaaaaaaaaay... pero ok lang.. ang galing talaga ni Lord kase kasabay ng pag-rebuke Niya, merong kasamang free tips kung anong gagawin mo para ndi ka mahirapan! o dba?!?! sobrang mahal na mahal ako ni Lord that He can't afford to see me na nasa putikan ulit! grabe!!! ang galing!!! and sobrang thankful ako...

yes, im busy... pero ndi dapat na magpadala sa mga ka-busyhan sa buhay... once again i was reminded na in every aspect of your life, put God first... ndi ung una si Lord, next family, next studies, next friends, etc... dapat, sa family una si Lord, sa school una si Lord, etc... ganun! and i have to strip off every weights and sin na nasa akin... ang sarap.. kase ganto man ang sitwasyon ko ngaun... there's joy and peace....! hahaha!!!

nothing can separate me from the love of God...

"Let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially sin that so easily hinders our progress." -Hebrews 12:11

siguro, for a while ndi ako naging disciplined na bata... just like sa story kanina... kung masyado akong makulit at inuuna ko ang mga gusto kong gawin, nagiging hindrance un sa pag-grow ko as a person... tulad nung skit kanina... ung friendship ng bird and caterpillar... ito ang most unforgettable line ko dun... "'pag pinagpatuloy mo pa ang pakikipag-kaibigan mo jan sa ibon na yan, balang araw kakainin ka rin niyan kahit sabihin mong magkaibigan kayo..." i don't know but it struck me.. dapat na talagang itigil ang friendship na ndi naman necessary... isa tuloy un sa mga naka-apekto para mawala ako sa focus kasabay ng mga ka-busy-han sa buhay... hahah! ang galing ni Lord kase patuloy Niya kong tinuturuan sa mga gagawin ko... and He doesn't allow me to be tempted na ndi ko kaya.. lalo namang ndi Niya ko hahayaang malaglag...! o dba...? God is really great!

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.
