overwhelmed...

woke up this morning and i was singing.. haha! have you experienced that..? i was singin' tita gi's fave song.. hehe..

I am redeemed..
I am redeemed..

ayun yung kinakanta ko.. tapos whoa.. i'm just overwhelmed with God's presence during my quiet time... =j whew!

and medyo nag-reflect lang ako for the past months... [i jot it down sa journal ko kase the pc's still in use kanina.. ; ) ]

this year, dumating sa point na sobrang nangayaw na ko.. =j... the fuel slowly ran out.. the fire slowly died... almost quit.. thought of resting na lang... BUT GOD JUST MADE IT THROUGH! it's really really really tough... whew... been rebuked by God most of the times... i've been thinking that i am good.. but i'm not ; ) .. I NEED HIM! and [indeed] apart from Him I CAN DO NOTHING...

  • the key to keep you going is to keep on falling in love with God
  • once you do nothing, dreams start to cease...
  • when God seems distant, don't sin
  • when you're already weak, call a friend =)
  • God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble... =)
  • dont' forget to thank the people around you... treasure them
  • a hug means a lot! ; )
  • listen to what others say... don't be prideful
  • you received freely... give freely
  • when it's not yet time, HE MEANS IT! - IT'S NOT YET THE RIGHT TIME!
  • Grace is all you need.. His strength is made perfect in our weaknesses..
  • when you're okay, watch out!
  • be alert!
  • God's grace never ran out!
  • when you don't feel good about someone... tell them! it will help them a lot...
  • you are responsible on others too
  • the Bible - it's alive!
  • when you know you're not good enough, God can use you still!
  • when God seems distant - you're positioned for blessing!
  • never stop hoping - it fuels your journey!
... ... ... still learning....

these things are real... i've experienced it.. sobrang grabe lang si Lord! yes, we may know them.. but undergoing those stuffs is different... whew! and i'm just amazed..

kanina nga.. hehe... i tried to ask God for dreams... again... for the ministry... and whoa...
wala lang... i've come up to this one...

what i believe in...
i believe that we can do something!
i believe that we can share the love of God on the streets!
i believe that we're gonna make history!
i believe we can do this!


the Holy Spirit is already in us.. we just have to tap to the source! whew... excited nga ko sa pagtatapos ng year na to.. hehe few weeks left.. and it's not yet done... =) we can still do something! katuwa lang si Lord... =)

if you can dream it...

you can do it!

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.
