Hello 2014

-


Started my 2014 with a bang when I read the email containing my transition schedule and confirmation of my promotion from Agent to Quality Specialist earlier part of my shift. It was a mixed emotion, both of excitement and sadness for I will surely miss the afternoon Happy hour with my team. Suddenly, I had a quick flashback of the life I once had (while I was still enjoying and loving my job as Quality Specialist back in 2008.)


The Lord pinched my heart reminding me of His faithfulness a midst my being "somewhat-faithful" to him for the past year. His perfection makes me wanna cry and cry and simply cry my heart out to the point I was having a hard time writing. Ever since the last heart-breaking moment in my life, I started offering my life to the Lord. I prayed, and prayed real hard to help fulfill my journey of being a single mother to gabby.


Many times, I was tempted to get another job with higher paying salary. But also on these times that I was reminded of the purpose He had for my life (which I actually prayed for earlier part of 2012). This enigma goes on and on for the year 2013. Because of the financial challenges, I almost gave up. It was only through my mom's support and encouraging words that I stayed and endured. My sister, together with my mom are one of God's greatest blessings in my life.


This year, He taught me valuable lesson by showing me the beginning and bringing me back to the exact same spot I stumbled down and left off. Year by year, slowly but surely he cleanses me and has faithfully walked with me so I can get back to Him without being astray. He was my light during my darkest days.


Thank you Lord for this good life. Thank you Lord for good health. Thank you Lord for my family and most importantly, Thank you Lord for Your unending grace and for Your faithfulness to Your promises.



To God be the praises and Glory!

My 2014 if offered unto YOU.




sincerely,

your faithful servant

For 4 years, my Alma Matter was and still is the University of Santo Tomas .  There are a lot of reasons to be proud of this University. The Character built within each and every students who enroll in this campus are remarkable and I can say made us, Filipinos proud of our race.  For Centuries (400 years), Catholic catechism has been the basis of the University's teachings. When I took up Fine arts back in 2002, there are less lectures and more on hands-on drawings and labs. This means lesser class hours for Christian living lessons *sigh. Less time, but unforgettable teachings. How can I forget my professor, Mr. Cura? He was 65 years old back then, but still he was teaching. He was a real emblem of PASSION, PATIENCE. He was a real inspiration for everyone whom he shared his life with. Apart from the great teachings and lectures I had with Mr. Cura, the University's annual activities being held like "PASKUHAN" is one of the reasons why I dearly love my Alma Matte...

August 7, 2010 (Saturday) Lesson #1 Each and every patient is unique. They might have the same symptoms, but they have different causes. The doctors should treat each patient differently, ask questions, and listen. In our case, I told this doctor that my daughter has cough for almost a month now and the doctors including my daughter's pedia heard that her lungs are clear whenever they listen through it. It turned out that my daughter had viral fever which was caused by pneumonitis. If only this gay doctor from the ER last saturday LISTENED. He could have admitted us that day and no need to send us away. Lesson #2 Mothers knows best . It is part of our innate instinct to feel that there's something wrong happening to our loved ones. Indeed, gabby just had a plain HIGH FEVER but who are they to tell us not to have our daughters admitted when we felt there's something wrong. When we believe in something, we have to stand up for it and fight. yes, FIGHT. I have to sound...

Nothing else matters, nothing in this world will do. Jesus at the center, everything revolves around you. Jesus, You at the center of it all. -"Jesus be the center" by Israel Houghton and New breed. Woke up at around 6 o'clock in the morning and I was listening to this song in which I thought was very timely. I was playing over it again and again until I organized some valuable thoughts, experiences creating a microscopic organization of my life from the time I really let the Lord take over my life. Looking back at it, I can testify to one Truth:  that Jesus is a faithful God, He listens to prayers and gives us the desire of our hearts in a timely manner. There were prayers I once made such as prayer for family reconciliation, personal prayer for other people and personal prayers I made for me and gabby. These prayers, in time were answered without me even waiting for it. There's a prayer I once made which I thought would never happen because of unfor...
