discipline

as of the moment... this is what God has been teaching me... i mean, teaching me in a deeper way... or in a more valuable aspect...? in a bigger area...

hmmmm.. to start with, this song summarizes what i really feel...

and i have come so far
You changed me by Your Word
and purified all of my desires
I know that we will never part
You called me as YOur own
and know i live to find my rest in You
I give my life
each day that i live
to be holy and faithful LOrd
'cause i know You live in me

So i can love You more than this LOrd
more than the things of this world...
to love You is all i wanna do
Jesus, You're the beacon of my heart
You're the light in the dark..
and know i live this life for YOU ALONE...

*From now on, i walk in full surrender
to give the things i hold so dear...
for You i'm letting go....

this song's one of my favorites whenever i realize that i've grown a little bit... whenever i realize that i'm far as in very far from who i was before... ! and i'm glad 'cause i know that i'm walking with God step by step, side by side, hand in hand... [although there are some times wherein i'm stubborn..! hehe]

discipline... lately, i almost wanted to just give in to what's puffing in my mind... but God just reminded me to... "Be patient and wait for the LOrd to act..." ... sometimes it's hard to wait.. but then, God's just amazing that He taught me how to handle the circumstances and not fall into temptation or a "trap"...

lately, i realized that i'm not who i was before.. like, i want God to be the center of everything... and He teaches me how to be like that... it's like binabatukan ako ni Lord whenever I'm a bit rerouting.. hehe!

and all of these [and a lot more!] is due to joan's dream!! best, thanks!!! i've learned a lot!! and upto this moment i'm still learning... i thank God for using you to make me realize a lot of things...

one important thing that i've just learned... God allows us to see what's next.. but sometimes, the door for that room is locked.. or there's still a big wall in front... but if you'll just wait... wait for God's own timing... you will come to enter that place... wonderfully...! [kase ndi ako nakapasok sa bahay namin kanina!!!! then i told my self, God is just telling something!! haha!]

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

By
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.
