All This Reality And All You Can Get Is A Bite?

It's sweldo day today so I brought Sunny to Puregold. lol We ended up buying a toy from The SM Store [Yes, they name themselves like that na]. I RARELY buy toys for Sunny because point A it's unnecessary, and point B—as always—ayaw ko ng madaming ligpitin. Only this time she needs to have something to spend her time on aside from being with me [which is all the time] because I need to work, so I can earn decent amount of money for both of us. Less time of working means less earnings. So, there's that. I let her play with our old landline phone though, and the oven toaster we don't use. Don't @ me. READ: Motor skills. She's smart, too, if you get to know her personally. I'm not actually going tell you about those things because the original plan was to buy groceries. So we did. [Umabot lang talaga kami sa SM because we are spontaneous like that. And probably because, life.] It always feels good doing grocery shopping. It is such a RELIEF having to

The Impossible Standard

"Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away. Then times of refreshment will come from the presence of the Lord, and he will again send you Jesus, your appointed Messiah."  Acts 3:19-20 My prayer is that we will once again be WITH Jesus and not just people who knows that there is a Jesus that we should worship. Been through a lot of binding sins and thoughts not pleasing to the Lord. Hindi naman ako nakapatay ng tao pero nakapatay ako ng sariling faith, hope at pag-ibig sa Diyos at sa mga tao. And that, God also sees and considers as sin. And unconfessed sins brings so much sickness to my body and spirit. Yung hormonal imbalance na ang lala sobra. Uncontrollable emotions, anxiety and what-have-you. It was so dark there inside my own self without the light of Jesus. But the past days have been amazing with God moving in my life step by step. I've no words to say in prayer but God is filling my lips with the right thing to

Because Starbucks Called, Enrollment Is On-Going, & John Piper Wrote About Steve Jobs

There is one thing, not two or three, that matters.  All is united in one thing: "The work of the Lord." It might be computers. It might be conversions. Whatever it is, in the shadow of your funeral, let it be "the work of the Lord."

Peace

Today I have come to understand how Jesus isn't only enduring when He was here. He is—as a matter of fact, at peace . His mind isn't running through some sort of blaming, doubting and hurting. He is not filled by those things towards the Father, or even towards anybody. I understand now, why, in the Lord's prayer, He was able to teach us how the Father in heaven is Faithful. Faithful. Faithful. He is not a father who leaves a house and leaves a home broken. As Jesus said, He is a Father whose will can be done here on earth as it is in heaven.  Loving. Loving. Loving.  David can attest to it; prays, he's never seen a righteous man forsaken nor their children begging bread. And you do too--you never let a loved one go hungry, don't you? Forgiving. Forgiving. Forgiving. Jesus witnessing how much the Father loves—His (Jesus) soiled, calloused feet walking the earth. The confidence that there is greater power in forgiveness. That love is also shown

"I Can't Believe It's Over." A Break-Up Story

Image
It was on a Monday night shift that my co-worker and I was left cleaning the whole line (if you've been to the place where I work, the line I was talking about is the one on the inner side of the sneeze guard). We are about to brush the floor clean and to remove the dirt of the most busy place of the store we needed an extra-strong chemical to do the magic. And when I say extra-strong I mean skin-burning extra-strong type of chemical. That is, Diversey's Suma Break-Up. (I should get paid for this advertisement) (There, so you'd imagine my description better.) Cutting to the chase, Wayne (the pretty co-worker in the story) and I are moving chillers and all those stuff around and started cleaning. Until she said, "Ah.. By portion natin ipu- push brush ?" The #hugot lines started. "Yup. Kasi ang break-up dapat dinadahan-dahan, dahil kapag hindi, masakit, madali tayong mapapagod," I answered. And so it goes. The incident is not really the ma

It Could Be Random. Or It Could Be A Poem.

I thought I could say something more. Mind is like a river: wide, open and shallow. But oh, how I pray for a word that penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. God is still doing amazing things in my life. He is not yet done with me. With all of us actually. His grace is still sufficient and never runs out. To the point of us drowning in it; Forgiven the sins that nailed it. He still loves us and is able to do more to show His love for us. He's done the greatest ( John 3:16 ), is there anything else that could be the hardest? He is still accepting the ones who seek, And using the ones who are willing. Didn't He humble the exalting by choosing the meek? It has not been a mainstream craze nor in a trending phase But the life of Jesus never fails to touch even the lowliest of the human race. It will always be about love the very being of our God above. I am in awe. I thought I could say something more. But the river of thou

The Story of the Nativity and The Relativity

It was two months before I graduate from high school when I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior.  College applications, entrance examinations, trendy clothes, hair colors, lovers and friends, and teenage angst were the things this college novice have in mind. Together with the incredulous plans I have in my life. As if those things seem to be easy putting into its rightful place. Things I have for my  self  in which probably what Jesus have seen when He came knocking at the door of my heart which I have humbly opened on the month of February, 2008.  image source:  http://celebritywonder.ugo.com/wp/Oscar_Isaac_in_The_Nativity_Story_Wallpaper_2_800.jpg    It could also be what Joseph have for his life when God knocked him off with a thought that his fiance was pregnant. He's got plans. To where the wedding will be held, who the guest will be; family, relatives, and a couple of friends maybe. To where they will raise their children. Or maybe just a
