A Piece of Heaven : Micamics' perspective

Being a mother to a growing up little girl is not an easy task. In fact, the bigger she gets, the more difficult it is being a mom. I thought the first few years of motherhood was the hardest part, most especially for working moms like me. My perception was changed along my 9- year journey. Looking back, the first few years of my motherhood became less challenging because I have a very supportive and loving mother who always gets out of her way to make things right, at least for me and my daughter. Working at a night shift is less worrisome knowing she is right beside my daughter to address all her needs, to love her back when I am not visible. These, and a lot more reasons to thank God for sending me such a wonderful mom in this lifetime.. Years passes by, as my daughter grows up a little older, my maturity as a parent grew a little deeper in the process. The challenges becomes more difficult, much more harder than I ever thought it would be. As I face alot of trials in this work-

" You dance over me.. while I am unaware..." "You sing all around.. but I never hear the sound.." "You paint the morning sky... with Miracles in Mind.." "My hope will always stand, for You hold me in your hand.." Nine years ago today, I started this Blog to showcase my talent in writing after an old mentor noticed a passive skill. Since then, this blog evolved from an emotional to informational and now a spiritual kind of blog and its transition is obvious looking back at my older blog posts.May 2, 2017 - Today, God gave me another reason to exalt Him (again) in His usual child-like way, if I may say. In deep need of His presence on this special day, I asked a dearest friend of mine to accompany me to a Prayer Mountain called Touch of Glory. Inside a prayer cell room, while everyone is supposed to be drowned in His presence- to my surprise, I wasn't even sober- perhaps a lot of things going on in my mind. Well after roughly an hour o

9 years ago today, at exactly 11:19 in the morning the Lord blessed me with a healthy, beautiful baby girl who, since the time I started to Labor  gave my life its meaning in a painful but joyful way.  Yep! I only labored for less than 4 hours. I knew since then that she will be my forever partner, someone who will make my single- motherhood more exciting and enjoyable. And it did.. Who would've thought, an  11 inch little baby girl would turn out to be someone who's shoe size is almost the same as mine?  (shoe size 7, now imagine how big she is today!) and its funny how I used to buy a lot of cute little shoes for her at the kid's section but today, have been struggling between kids and teens section as her shoe size falls somewhere in between LOL. Oh and yes! there are a lot of times I would hear these scary words from her:  "Mama pahiram ng shoes mo ha"  Scary for those vintage kicks she eyed for are a few moments away from retirement as they've been a

2nd of May year 2016, around 6AM,  I packed my bag and together with my daughter we decided to visit Taal Volcano- the second most active volcano in the Philippines through which had shown signs of unrest last 1991 and last volcanic eruption was documented last 1977. At first, I just would like to explore something new on my birthday but the Lord has revealed a lot more to me on this day more than I could ever imagine. Here are my take ways on this trip: 1. The higher you wanna go in life, it is Life's requirement for you to go through the lowest point and take the roughest and rockiest road before you reach the top . I planned the said trip 3-4 days before and knew all along that we were supposed to do trekking up to the crater of Taal, Just that.. I didn't know it was a 4KM trekking (total of 8KM back and forth) until we are right in the middle of it. I tried walking my way up the track but the heat (from the direct sunlight and Sulfur emitted from the actual Volcano) ,

Who are Ch ristians? What are they made of? The most common question asked when we mention the word- Christian.  As a believer of Christ, I say a Christian is someone who knows the word of Christ through reading the bible and lives through it by following it intentionally and unintentionally. Intentionally following Jesus is easy most especially when the path we are going through is easy, abundant and overflowing with Blessings. While unintentionally following Christ happens when Christians makes wrong choices in life (because of human failures) but through the grace of God He leads us right back on track, back to Him.  The term "Blessed" is usually experienced or is perceived by the people who are following Jesus. But the term itself  is subjective to the level of relationship we established with the Lord. I used to believe that the term "Blessing" is something that is tangible and beautiful. I look up to Christian Pastors, Motivational Speakers, Family, Fri

Bucket list is a norm for blogger most especially in this time of year. To set myself apart, I do not want to jot down a list of achievements I had for the present year, neither will I write down a list of things I would like to do the upcoming year. To dream for worldly things is humane, but I if there is one thing I've learned this year that is to enhance my Spiritual senses rather than the Physical or Humane one. Yes! I've grown much deeper with the Lord this year than the past years since I accepted Him as my personal Lord and Savior last 2003. Although I still am a work in progress, and there are a lot of ups and down during my walk with HIM. I am proud to say that I've been walking with him in all ways my humane self can achieve. And when the time comes that my humane self could not go along any further, all  I need to do is to kneel down in prayer and He is always ready to listen. To sum it all up, my 2015 consists of  PAIN, JOY, LESSONS, TRANQUILITY, TRIALS, and a

Since my dad passed away last March 2007, I always commemorate his love, his smile, his uplifted spirit, his jolly and friendly persona which is a huge part of who I am today. Moving on with a death of a loved one is not easy. Year after year, I slowly let go a piece of him but every time All Soul's day is celebrated each year, I draw back and begin to embrace all the memories that were once with me. This year, I welcomed All soul's day at 2 o'clock in the morning crying. After a few minutes of mourning, a comforting song from Hill song touched my heart called "Hosanna" These Lyrics put warmth in my heart early this morning: "Heal my heart and make it clean. Open up my eyes to the things unseen. Show me how to love like You have loved me. Break my heart for what breaks Yours. Everything I am for the Kingdom's cause. As I go from nothing to eternity."   The song reminded me that a death of our loved ones served two greater purpose : 1. (For t
