A Piece of Heaven : Micamics' perspective

1Thessalonians 2:11-12   For you know how, like a father with his children,  we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory. Today, was one one of those days in a year I got the license to miss my dad and the liberty to talk about him.  Through the years his memories seem not to fade infact it becomes more vivid as my experiences in life put color on it. My dad, by far is the best man I've ever had in my lifetime,next to God. His words of wisdom that was instilled in me during my childhood years somehow made sense as I learn to use them as I grew up. He somehow knows what to say and how to say it in the right time because he knew how stubborn I can become. He can uplift all our spirits up simply by cracking a joke and his laid back character kinda complimented my mom's upright attitude.  I miss my dad so much and I love him dearly. I am happy to know that he i...

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...

**So loved this movie by Sarah Geronimo and John Loyd Cruz, so I had to borrow this famous line and use it as my blog title** I would like to start this blog with this bible verse, Ecclesiastes 12:1 -3 “Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, ‘Life is not pleasant anymore.’ Remember him before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is dim to your old eyes, and rain clouds continually darken your sky. Remember him before your legs—the guards of your house—start to tremble; and before your shoulders—the strong men—stoop. Remember him before your teeth—your few remaining servants—stop grinding; and before your eyes—the women looking through the windows—see dimly.” (NLT) As a woman servant of the Lord, I had my share of Ups and Downs in this knotty journey with Him. Each Year, I have grown through the things I've learned from life's experiences . Each and every year I've learned to indulge in God...

I had a glimpse of this true story movie on HBO one saturday and I got so curious that I decided to download a copy of the full movie in torrent. When given the chance to take a break and relax the next weekend, I kept the movie rolling. In synopsis, Soul Surfer is a movie about a girl who lives to surf and serve God. Yup, she is a proud Christian. The story revolves in Bethany Hamilton's journey with the Lord before and after she was attacked by a shark one surfy day. She is a known teenage in Hawaii who is in the peak of her blooming career as a surfer. Bethany and her family's struggle after she lost one of her arms during the shark attack was high lighted in this story.  I was amazed how a Family of Christ-lovers worked together in the movie to surpass a life changing trial of their lives. What moves me the most? When the climax of the story was shown. When she (bethany) and her Church mates went out on an outreach program in Thailand to help out the tsunami victims. I fe...

"we wont stop till the whole world knows.... we wont stop till the whole world knows.... we wont stop till the whole world knows that you're a great God! "  One of the lines that pinched my heart from earlier's praise and worship-- we wont stop till the whole world knows . Being a Christian is one of those wonderful opportunities, not everybody else has given the chance to celebrate. Christ lives in each and every one's hearts and can only manifest because of God's grace. He will start working from the time we allow Him to use us for His greater purpose and He wont stop till He achieves His purpose in our lives. He had shown that He is a persistent God back in the old testament times.  And a God of many wonderful things as seen in the new testament.  Today, God continues to reveal Himself in me and gab's life and is continuously working on us in order to use us for His glory. He is indeed a limitless God with so many wonderful things in pla...

Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go. (NIV) Everyday, has always been a bitter- sweet experience since the day I offered one aspect of my life to the Lord. He's been with me and had shown faithfulness to His promise at all times. I admit, it wasn't a perfect walk at all, but He never fails to amaze me in times  I couldn't cling to anybody else but Him. His provisions in my life are like the  miracles we read in the bible during the old testament days, only this time its performed in a modern, non- historic way.  Slowly He teaches life's lessons and let me go on in life as He held me by my hand, never totally letting me go. There were times I went astray, still He holds my hands slightly sliding it away from mine then drawing me near when I needed to. I run out of words to describe this feeling when all I can say is THANK YOU. Thank you for this w...

Woke up at around 3 o'clock in the morning, and for whatever reason I started browsing for songs in you tube which was defaulted to a praise and worship sung by Hill song.  Next thing I knew, I was crying over this song by The Katinas titled: Thank you . The words just started filling me up until I burst into tears and ended up praising Him for all the blessings I had this 2013. Only a few days has passed since the year started, but then again, feels like years! Because  I knew in my heart, It'll take years ( maybe less than a year ) to gain all the things I have now.  Surely, when a window closes another door opens up. I will whole-heartedly testify to that truth! And I cant stop thanking HIM for opening up a new door to let someone in me and gab's  life.  Setting up a career goal is not necessary for me right now, because of a new opportunity that opened up for me in an unexpected manner. Thank you Lord for Business!  John 4:21-24 Jesus said to he...
