thinking out loud

just a while ago, my father's checking something on the internet... i was playing street jam with my brother [it's a basketball thingy by the way.. PS2]...

i would like to look for a job while waiting for the november board exam.. when he called me, i thought local yung work na papakita niya.. yun pala he's looking for job opportunities abroad... sabi, ano'ng nurse ba? medical, surgical, ICU, etc.. sabi ko, medical na lang.. then he asked, what country... europe? then sabi ko, di ko alam eh.. kahit ano.. then i went back in front of the tv.. not knowing what to say...

then suddenly, i thought of the future.. what's gonna happen if may kids na ko.. and all... suddenly i found myself asking for a purpose... the very reason why you'll get married.. why you have to live pa... ganun.. parang, okay, i'll have my own family, tapos? hanggang dun na lang ba? i mean, i'll work and feed them? ganun?

tapos tinigilan ko nang maglaro kase nagluluha ang mata ko kasi mahapdi.. hehehehe
saka masakit na sa daliri..
i played pc games na lang.. kaya lang walang mapagtripan.. it seems like wala ko sa mood.. ganun... hehehehe

then naisip ko nanaman yun..

what's gonna happen to me in the future.. i mean, i have to ask God about it... i need direction... i badly need it... ayokong kaya ka lang nageendure kase you'll work, feed your kids.. ganun...

i'm praying while playing pet salon.. sabi ko kay Lord, Lord... what can i do... why do i have to have kids... i mean, papakainin ko lang ba sila? mamahalin? then it hit me... you have to raise up the next generation...

oo nga noh... yeah...

hindi ka lang magkakaron ng family just to have a family... hindi ka lang magtatrabaho for the sake na mabuhay ka.... there's always something... there's always a reason why you're like this and like that...

honestly, kung meron man akong nararamdaman for the past weeks... month... hoooh.. yun yung anxiety... hehehe [fear of the unknown]... i don't know what's gonna happen next... but i'm not letting that fear creep in.. i have a BIG GOD! and my future is secured with HIM... my soul secure.. Your promise sure... Your love endures always... hoooh...

i just don't know what's gonna happen next.. where He'll take me.. but this i'm sure.. His glory will be revealed... ! hooooooooooooh LORD!!!!

just have to remain in HIM... just have to really believe... and obey...

i have a word... "stay"...

hooh.. don't know how to explain it to my parents.. but i pray that God will grant me so much grace... hooooooooooooooooh... grace...

Oh Lord..
I trust in You alone..
I'm holding on to Your promises
and i believe it shall come to pass...
I'm asking You to take me where You want me to go...
I'll just follow..
and allow me to be patient God..
just be patient...
Hooh Lord...

I know who I am
I know who I am
I know who I am
I am YOURS
I am YOURS...

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.
