The Distraction of Contempt Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt —Psalm 123:3 What we must beware of is not damage to our belief in God but damage to our Christian disposition or state of mind. "Take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously" ( Malachi 2:16 ). Our state of mind is powerful in its effects. It can be the enemy that penetrates right into our soul and distracts our mind from God. There are certain attitudes we should never dare to indulge. If we do, we will find they have distracted us from faith in God. Until we get back into a quiet mood before Him, our faith is of no value, and our confidence in the flesh and in human ingenuity is what rules our lives. Beware of "the cares of this world . . ." ( Mark 4:19 ). They are the very things that produce the wrong attitudes in our soul. It is incredible what enormous power there is in simple things to distract our attention away from God. Refu

For such a time as this… he’s just by your side The night seemed dark and endless… Once again, what she thought wouldn’t happen come true. She saw her fiancé with another girl at a restaurant this afternoon. “Not again…sob” she told herself as she embraced her favorite pillow. “This always happens to me. I thought he loves me so much that he’s willing to spend the rest of his life with me…I thought his love for me is real… and yet he broke my heart…sniff… He’s the same just like any other guy who came and said they’ll stay… But they’re all the same! All of them are good at breaking my heart…” She kept on sobbing until she fell asleep. Chelsea’s always in search for true love just like any typical young adult who wants to feel loved… who wants to have a sense of belongingness. But time after time, what she gets is a broken heart. “I’ll never find that guy…who’s willing to love me forever… who’s willing to love me for real.” She often writes in her journal after seeing his guy with someo

how silly we are to think that we're focusing too much on avoiding the big ones..yet we are indulging on the little ones that causes us to be apart from God.. --------- being discernful is evaluating something through God's standards.. --------- "take this rule: whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off teh relish of spiritual thjings; in short, whatever increases the strength and authority of your body over your mind, that thing is sin to you, HOWEVER INNOCENT IT MAY BE IN ITSELF..." hehehehe.... " -Mrs. Wesley _not even a hint -------- we reap what we sow... [i'm just reminded of that once again...] minute by minute we sow... moment by moment we reap... -------- the difference between teh person who grows in holiness and the one who doesn't is not a matter of personality, upbringing, or gifting; the difference is what each has planted into the soil of his or her heart and soul. _not

before i continue to post my message.. heheheheh.. i just want to warn the ones reading this that while i'm blogging this post, i'm not in the mood for looking for a partner, especially for a future partner.. heheheheh.. neither am i in the "how-my-partner-would-look-like-mode" hehehehehe... it's just that this is it... hmmmm.. i don't know with Him.. =) ... but for Adam, no suitable helper was found. 21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. _ Genesis 2:21-22 Cool! isn't it.. the very reason that God created Eve because He can't find any suitable helper for Adam.. not just a helper.. but a suitable helper... so God created the woman for man to have a suitable helper.. well... hmmmmm.... helper.. before, i'm really struggling wit

just yesterday... once again i've felt God's grace... well, i've been reminded once again of what HIs grace really means.. as in i've experienced it and it's just... whoaaaaaaaaaaa... pambihira!!! God's grace is where love and justice meet... [_experiencing the heart of Jesus_]... well... God loves us so much that He wants to have fellowship with us... He is a just God, righteous God... and the wages of sin is death... have you really asked yourself how God - a loving and righteous God - can love us so much that everytime we sin against Him, He never withdraws His love..??? =) that's what you call grace... He is a just God.. we ought to be punished for our sins... and because He loves us... instead of punishing us.. He sent His only begottend Son in replacement for our sins.. pambihira!!! imagine everytime you hurt His feelings.. everytime you make Him cry.. the enemy, the accuser.. will talk to Him like this...

.... an honest voice us louder than the crowd... _legally blonde 2_ ............... hmmm... [got blocked out... nanaman.... ] hehehe.... .............. excerpts from ablaze for God... at times, satan seems able to cast a shadow of darkness over you as you pray and try to minister for GOd. He seems able to block all awareness on your part for a time fo God's presence and power. Is this your experience today? Don't be alarmed be these faith moments. Hold steady and pray; labor on in total dependence on God's power even when you cannot see or feel it at work. as certainly as you ahve sensed God's presence and power in the past, just so certainly you will sense it again. You are in the midst of a conflict with the power of darkness. Your experience is not unique. GOd's choicest saints have at times had days, weeks, and even months of such darkness. But GOd's answer always come again. don't try to get off the train while you are going through the tunnel. You a

Lord, allow me to have an amnesia so that i may let go of my past.. especially the memorable ones... the good ones.. and the ones i really really treasure... those things might hinder me from accepting Your will... if i dwell in the past, how can i accept the future wholeheartedly... the heart... the heart of the matter is... hahahaha.. well.. hmmmm... i just want to see my dreams come to pass.. yes, to see my dreams come to pass.. i want to see the

i've long been wanting to post this song.. hehehehe I have often dreamed Of a far off place Where a hero's welcome Would be waiting for me Where the crowds will cheer When they see my face And a voice keeps saying This is where I'm meant to be I'll be there someday I can go the distance I will find my way If I can be strong I know ev'ry mile Will be worth my while When I go the distance I'll be right where I belong Down an unknown road To embrace my fate Though the road may wander It will lead me to you And a thousand years Would be worth the wait It may take a lifetime But somehow I'll see it through And I won't look back I can go the distance And I'll stay on track No I won't accept defeat It's an uphill slope But I won't lose hope Till I go the distance And my journey is complete But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part For a hero's strength is measured by his heart Like a shooting star I can go the distance I will search t

"If you don't have the passion to pursue your purpose, madali kang mabubunot sa pinagbaunan sa yo..." hehe.. sa wakas.. i've long been waiting for that message [again...] sa church.. and sa wakas, na preach na rin.. i've heard that from JREV and once again, i'm reminded.. hooh..

[ actually, i already forgot the exact reason why i wanted to post something on my blog.. ehheheheh... some thoughts came into my mind as i was traveling..=p hehehehe.. and poof!] as far as i can remember... hmmmm... i wanted to post what's really goin on inside me... just this morning upon going to work.. and i wanted to blog that because i don't know with whom to share these things with...=) so, i'm pleading.. [hehehe] to those people who'll be able to read this, just make a comment.. a simple, "I've read it!" will do.. it would be of great help! hehehehe.. thanks.. ***** previously... -wink- for the past weeks, i can honesty say that there's something happening to me.. [malamang diba..?] hmmm.. and as i was in the bus, i've realized what's really happening!!!! hahahah! thanks to God 'coz He provided me with a book that i can read in times like this! -wink- the book's entitled Ablaze for God..=) and poof!

His love will se me through... He's my rock and my salvation... whom shall i be afraid... He's on my side.. everything's under His control... He loves me... i'm safe and secured... =)

haha! at last! i got the chance to post something here... hmmmm... hehehehehe.... t0 start with... at last! i already know what's goin' on... hehe... i'm already sure [a bit] with what God has been doing lately.. =) why i've been experiencing those stuffs.. why i'm feeling that way.. etc etc... =) we, as children of God, biologically, we undergo stages from birth to infancy to adolescence etc... we grow physically.. we come to a point wherein we become mature individuals... so it is with our spiritual lives... we also mature... and that process/procedure is hard to understand pala ... it's not easy to realize that you are in the process towards maturity... well, lately... hmmmm.... i've learned that all those stuffs i've been experiencing is because i'm in the process of maturity.. [not to boast or something... it's the truth that's happening to me...] =) i can say that ganito pala ang feeling... hehehehe... whew! and i can't believe th

hmmmmm... tomorrow's my first day at work... -sigh- don't know if i'm excited or what... hehehehehe... but then i feel a little excitement... pero napapaisip pa rin ako... haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy.... i still want to continue ministering to young people... hehehehehe... hay nako LOrd... i don't want to rest... i don't know.... by the way, i missed blogging... hehehehehe... ngayon na lang ulit ako nakapag-open ng blog... whew!!! a lot of things happened...a lot of things are still happening... but there's one thing that i want God to develop in me... to trust Him [in a higher level] and to realize [even more] how much He loves me...

-sigh- can't think of anything.. hehehehehe... basta ang alam ko ngayon, i'm really hungry.. not physically.. but i'm hungry for God.. i want to do His Will.. and unless He reveals it to me... hmmmmmmm... then and there this hunger will be satisfied...
