On my last blog post, I talked about "asking God questions" But then, I never knew that His answer will be as quick as this.
Yesterday, I was so confused of this feeling I am feeling. It was like God is asking me to do something and I don't know what it is. It's been knocking out it my heart and mind until it cause me sleepless nights.
I wasn't planning to attend Light Church's Prayer meeting last night but then I called my friend and asked where she is. She said she'll be attending PM that night. So, that brings me that strong feeling of attending the PM too. I said "Okay, I'll come. I need answers"
Though I am not expecting exact answers from God, I asked, "Lord, what exactly do you want me to do? Why do I have to feel this?" Then I arrived at the church, I sat down, looked at what's flashed on the screen and saw Matthew 4:19 "And He said to them, 'Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." Just at that moment that I read "FOLLOW ME" , tears run down my face. This is His answer! Exact words from Him! Then, I noted this on my bible for me not to forget the date God answered all my questions. But I didn't realized that His message are not yet done, as I read verse 20 "and immediately, they leave their nets and followed Him" I've got goosebumps.
Then I asked, "God, does it have to be immediate?" And as I continue reading the passage, at verse 22 it says "immediately" again.
That was a fast answer from God. And after encountering that messages from God, I was at peace. Believing that God is in control and that He will provide everything that I need, I am at peace.
Now, I want to ask you to include me in your prayers. It will be a very hard decision but whatever God wants His child do, He make it all possible. Wherever you go, whatever you were doing, when God called you for His grander Vision, He will talk to you and instill in your heart that commandment He has given you.
To God be all the Glory!

You don't understand now, but soon, you will - JESUS
"Jesus replied, 'You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.'" - John 13:7
Lately, I was asking God about life, future, and His plans. Though I haven't really got a direct answer for my questions, I've grown to be more drawn to God's presence.
There are about hundreds of questions I ask God each day. Lord, where do you want me to be? Why am I here? Why do I have to know these? Why do I have to meet these people? Why am I feeling this? Why? And the sort of things. But nothing kept me in peace. I almost feel like I am nowhere to go or that I have some place I have to be in. But there is one question that really made me cry, Lord, how?
For the past few weeks, there has been an extreme conviction of doing something for God's greater glory but I don't know how and where to start. One thing that's really bugging me is that, I feel like God was asking me to let go of some things that are really precious to me. He is also like asking me to let go of some people that's important to me. The why questions then enters the picture. There is pain in letting go of all these. But I guess, God won't let me feel these things if He don't have a grander plan for me. I believe there is.
So now, I am much excited of what God wants me to do. I know that it is for His greater glory. I may never know what it is, but I am trusting God for all the things that He have for me in the future. I may lose eveything I have now, money, time, and energy, but I know that God will restore it all more than I expected. I may not uinderstand what He was doing now, but I am rest assured that soon, I will.
All Glory to God! :)

Confessions...
Those were the words that I used to utter. Words that I expressed long ago when I fell in love. Words that I said when I had my first heartbreak.
Masakit. Oo! Sobra nga e. Pero I know that there are more hurtful things than this. Right now, I have confessions to make. After three years of moving on, crying, trying to hold on the things that's left, I'm done. I'm made new.
One confession is, na-realize ko lang na kung di pa ako na-broken hearted, hindi ko pa lalo makikila si Lord. Like for real! I've realized that when I had my heart broken, I became more closer to God. Mas naging open ako sa Kanya, mas naging sincere yung prayers ko, mas naging personal ang messages Niya sakin. Mas naging bold and confident ako for Him! It's so amazing!
Two. From time to time, naiisip ko padin si Yatz. Though lagi ko naman sinasabi na naka move on na ako, minsan, naiisip ko padin ang mga maaaring mangyari kung natuloy ang lovestory namin. Although we haven't really had a real relationship. And one thing I am so proud about, I was never ever physically intimate with him. We never held hands, we never kissed, we never ever ever did the thing. That's because we've never been in a relationship! HAHA! Well, I know that God has been protecting me from any harm at that moment. Thank You Lord! And allowing my heart to be broken is one of His way to take me away from that guy. Everything is done. Pero, promise! Minsan, iniisip ko, "Paano kaya kung kami talaga? Paano kung matutuloy yung promise namin sa isa't-isa na pag 25 na kami at wala parin kami karelasyon, kami nalang? Paano kaya?" But no! I have made a promise with God that I will never ever fall for that guy again. Yes! Waaaaa! Lord, I need more patience.
Three. I met someone. Someone who actually possess every detail of a guy that I want to be with. Christ-centered, musician, preacher, singer, youth leader, a little bit funny, and a little bit handsome. Someone whom I can sing with, pray with, laugh with, laughs at my corny jokes, and know Christ with. Someone that will push me to the limit of my patience but also someone who will lead me to Christ. Waaaa! This is so crazy! Because that guy that I met actually possess everything that I've said. Then after a few months discovering who he is, I've discovered that even his family background fits to what I envisioned my dream guy's family would be. This is crazier! I had this feeling of assurance na kahit hindi kami romantically connected, may future kami. Hahah. Sobrang weird lang.
Four. Pinagpray ko na yung guy na sinabi ko sa number three. Oo. Pero mas gusto ko na si Lord na yung bahala. Minsan napepressure lang ako kapag nagpepray ako tapos wala naman nagbabago. Pero those were the moments na ako naman ang binabago ni Lord. Pero looking back, we started out being strangers na nagmeet in an unexpected moment. Pero ngayon, we're so close and can share weird things to each other pero minsan lang. Hahaha. Sobrang nirerespeto ko siya as a person and that is what I want my husband to be. To lead me, to pray with me, and to tell me that God has the best plans for me. Sa tuwing kausap ko siya, ang dami ko natututunan, it's like sobrang kinasihan siya ng Banal na Espiritu. Pero I am not consistent sa pagpepray sa kanya, basta bahala na si Lord. Kung siya man yun, waaa. Thank You Lord. Pero king hindi, I am glad to havr known na nageexist yung taong gusto ko. <3
Five. Minsan naisip ko na magiging single ako forever. Pero that doesn't mean that I've given up waiting, that's because I want to experience more of God. Siguro, I will be meeting the guy for me sooner or later, or baka nga nakita ko na. Hehe. But now, I am enjoying the blessing of being single. :)
I'm so happy that I am becoming more honest of what I really feel. Thank You talaga Lord! Pa-huggg! <3

Work from the heart and change a life :)
After my graduation last March 2013, I didn't realy know where I am going. I never even planned applying in a certain company and get a job.
I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Information Techonology. I was actually seeing myself working as a programmer, graphic designer, and other IT stuff job. But being a social worker wasn't really my plan. I had my OJT at Provincial Capitol of Laguna where I found myself loving the idea of being a writer. Yes, I'm a writer, but not an excellent writer. But then, after a year, I realized why God has put to that training because that's where my heart will be molded.
Now, I am currenly working at Malayan Colleges Laguna at the Center for Service-Learning and Community Engagement. Our office is the Community Extensions arm of MCL. I never imagined working at MCL because, first, it is almost a high quality school because only rich people can afford studying there. Second, having their high quality, I assumed that they are aiming for high quality employees with extraordinary skills. Sadly, I am just an average person. But! The grace of God has no boundaries! MCL hired me instead of hiring applicants who graduated at a famous universities. And take note, I didn't even apply for the position, it is purely God's grace who put me to where I am now.
So, just to tell a very short story of my experiences and journey at MCL, I compiled few photos taken by some random students. (credits to them) and I just want to share how God is putting community service into my heart.

He is Joven. One of the few students who received a Scholarship from our office. While he is a scholar, he have to render at least 3 hours of return service. Return service aims to teach our scholars to reach out community and instilling in their hearts the essence of community service. I was so inspired by how dedicated he is in his return service. He actually rendered more than the required number of hours. But what's more inspiring is, I felt his heart willing to really reach out not just because he was asked to, but because he want to.
These two little gilrs are nursery students who benefited in one of our projects. I am so happy to have met them because they are so cute and seeing them smile makes my heart melt. They are also the reason why I love reaching out people like them.
This is Jovan. She is my favorite nursery pupil who visited MCL. I took this photos accidentally and I am so happy that the result is so wonderful.
I always love kids. I always love telling stories to kids and making them laugh at my corny jokes. This photo was during the "Keep the Change" project at MCL.
This photo was during the Read to Succeed Project of BAB - CAS of MCL. ENG21 students extended their classroom lesson to community and taught these pupils to read. These pupils are actually at Grade 3 level already but they are non-readers. As a sign of help for their lives, BAB-CAS community come up with an idea of having this project that will really last a lifetime. CAS Student council also raised funds for this project and raised almost 16K.
At first, I thought giving up my IT career was a bad idea, but I realized that it was one of the best decision I have ever made. I found myself having this heart for changing lives with my simple actions. I felt more passionate about giving and helping out needy. I was once a needy, but now that I have much more than what I have asked, I have to give it away. I thank God for allowing these things to happen. It was truly life-changing.
Thank for reading and praise be to God!

When my patience is tested
Just so you know, I am the only person in our entire family who haven't been in a relationship. Yes, I am proud that I've found myself drawing satisfaction from God alone. But I am still believing that God is writing the best love story for me and for the one He made for me.
Everytime our family will have a reunion and get together, everyone will ask, "Do you have a boyfriend already?" For a zillion times, they're asking the same question. And yet, I answer just one answer, "I don't have a boyfriend. I am praying. God's is still writing the best love story for me." But one night, my patience is tested. One relative responds in an offending approach "Ang tiyaga!" (So patient!) That's the point! I am really patiently waiting! Is that a bad thing?
I cried and feeling like I am nowhere. I feel like my dreams will stay as dreams. I doubted God's timing and God's plan. Then God reminded me of what's true and what's important. That in this 'waiting', I am not waiting for a perfect guy and for someone who would make me feel I am special, I am waiting for God and God alone. That everything I have in my prayers are in His hands.
As I reflect, I appreciated how God is focusing on molding me, my attitude, my character, and my heart. I appreciated how God is taking me to the right path that leads me to His loving arms. I appreciated how God is allowing these things to happen for me to embrace more of Him alone.
This is my prayer...
Dear Lord,
Thank You for pouring out Your grace and Your love to me and for giving me this desire to have an intimate relationship with You and for putting in my heart this dream of being with somone who loves you more than anyone else.. May You forgive me for doubting Your timing and Your plans. May You teach me more on how to be patient on waiting on You. May you teach me to draw satisfaction from You and not from people around me. I place my heart in Your hands and trusting that You will give it to someone You are molding just like how You're molding me. I trust in Your greater plans. I trust in Your words. I pray in the Name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, My Lord, Amen!

Praying for someone?
Though I don't have a partner yet, still, I want to share to you these factors that I've learned from what I read, I heard, and I saw about praying for someone to be your lifetime partner.
Let's start off with a question of "How do we pray?" I admit that when I pray for someone, though I am saying that I am praying for a guy I haven't seen yet, someone existing in my life would popped up in my mind and think that maybe, he could be that someone I am praying for.
Let's start off with a question of "How do we pray?" I admit that when I pray for someone, though I am saying that I am praying for a guy I haven't seen yet, someone existing in my life would popped up in my mind and think that maybe, he could be that someone I am praying for.
I am specifically praying to God that I want my life partner to be tall, (handsome), and owns a good smile. But what I really want for my lifetime partner to possess is being a God-follower, God-fearing, lover of Christ, musician and loves music as he offers it to the Lord, and lastly, someone who will love me as I love him.
For the past four years that I've been praying for this qualities of a guy, I've seen few guy who accidentally came into my life who posses those qualities, like exactly! Meeting them changed my perspective. At some point, I prayed for them specifically. Telling God that this guy that I met has the qualities that I want for a guy and asking Him if he is the one. Then I realized that what I am doing is totally wrong! I've been compromising my love to someone I'm praying for whom I haven't met.
Next, "How should we pray?" Praying for someone should be the other way around. More than we spill out to the Lord our heart's desire, we should seek more of God's heart. Just recently, I felt how God is changing my perspective in praying for someone. Yes, as we delight ourselves to the Lord, He will give us the desires of our heart (Psalm 37:4) But it is more important that we seek first His heart, His righteousness, His Kingdom, and all of these things shall be added unto us (Matthew 6:33)
Specifically, one should pray for God's perfect will. Pray for your future partner's heart to be molded into someone who is right. Pray for his future plans, pray for God's plan for his life. Pray for his relationship with the Lord. Also pray that he will keep his purity as you keep yours. Of course, as you pray, pray for yourself to be someone right for the guy you are praying for or for the one that God's created just for you. Pray for your relationship with the Lord, be lost in God's presence.
It's amazing how God's transformed my prayer into something that longs to have the same heart with Him. As I pray, I never knew that God would give this desire to patiently wait for His will despite of all the doubts, heartaches, and pain that I've been through. That He would actually tell me to wait upon the His perfect will even though at some point in my life, few guys would come into my life and they possess the exact qualities that I am praying for and they would give me a heartache thinking if he is the one. But no, this is my will, not His. As we grow closer to God, He will shift our heart's desire and the things that we thought we need the most - to His heart's desire.
Finally, it may take time to meet the one, but waiting is such a short time for someone who is patiently waiting.

Pagaantay sa Pag-ibig (Warning: Purong tagalog. Warning lang)
Maraming bagay ang nahihirapan tayong antayin. Maraming maiikling pagkakataon ang nasusubukan ang ating pasensya sa simpleng pagaantay. Minsan, dito pa natin nakikita ang tunay nating pagkatao. Matiyaga ba taong nagaantay sa mga simpleng bagay? O hindi padin natin kayang maging kalma sa mga ganitong pagkakataon?
Ang pag-iintay ay maiihahalintulad ko sa isang halaman. Lahat ng halaman ay nagsisimula sa isang maliit na buto. Para mamunga ito, kailangan itong itanim, diligan, at intayin mamunga. Diligan ng diligan at intayin pang lalong mamunga.
Isang kabataan ang minsang lumapit sakin. Sabi niya, "Ate, bakit ganito ang nararamdaman ko? Pakiramdam ko ay nagkakagusto ako sa kanya. Hindi ko maintidihan. Hindi ako makatulog minsan. Hindi ko malaman kung tama ba ito o hindi." Ang sagot ko? Mag intay ka.
Unang-una, hindi lahat ng bagay ay nakukuha mo ng agar-agaran. Pagpalagay nating maliit na buto ng isang halaman ang iyong nararamdam sa isang tao. Tapos tinanim mo, anong sunod? Didiligan mo. Sa buhay ng tao, inihalintulad ko ang pagdidilig sa araw-araw na pananalangin. Ipanalangin mo ang iyong nararamdaman. Sabihin mo sa Panginoon ang lahat lahat. Huwag kang magtago. At syempre, ang pinakamahalaga, mag-intay ka. ang paglaki ng isang halaman inaantay sa matagal na panahon para makita ang kagandahan nito. Gayon din sa pag-ibig. Kinakailangan mong intayin ito para makita mo ang kagandahan ng pag-ibig na idinaan at binugbog sa panalangin.
Minsan, hindi natin nakikita. Maraming bagay ang kailangan natin intayin at kailangan natin pagtiyagaan. Ang pagibig ay naaantay. Pero dapat mo din isipin kung ano ang mga bagay na dapat mong ginagawa sa iyong pagaantay. Manalangin ng manalangin at ibigay sa Diyos ang lahat. Iaalay sa Panginoon ang iyong buhay , puso at kaluluwa. Sa huli, ang Diyos mismo maglalagay sa iyong puso ng taong dapat mong ibigin.

You are Loved
One day, my dad told me that I'm lazy, that I don't do anything but sleep, watch T.V. and eat. He says that if these actions will take place until the next day, he will go back to Malaysia as early as possible because I just give him stress.
I woke up so late that day and my dad was annoyed. It hurts. Because everything he said was true. Knowing how much I've been trying to impress him but ended up disappointing him, is really painful. But after what happened, I felt how much my dad loves me that he makes me realize my flaws. When I was younger, I tend to get mad whenever he scold me, but now, I just cried and wish that I've done better to make him happy.
How God discipline us is almost the same. God may not literally tell us our mistakes, but through the guidance of the Holy Spirit and His Word, we always feel bad if we did something wrong. We know that we can do whatever we want but because of God's love, He never let us do foolish things. But if we do, He let us experience its consequence but still loves us the same.
Ephesians 3:19 says, "and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Our mind cannot fully understand the love of Christ, on how wide it can be, how great, how deep, and high. But once we accept His love, we may be filled with the fullness of life that comes from God.
Love doesn't always mean hugging, kissing, having relationships, or having what you want. It may also mean knowing our flaws from someone who truly loves us. It may hurt us at first glance, but through deep understanding, you will realize the YOU ARE LOVED.

If your happy and you know it, write it down!
Blogging has always been a part of my life since I entered college. That's when I knew that I have this unknown writing skills which I thought wasn't my kind. But it turns out that it became my passion and hobby.
I was once a member of a school publication way back high school. I was not given a chance to write down my thoughts back then. I haven't even contributed anything to it. It was just an extra-curricular activity that I once joined. But entering to a university publication never stepped into my brain. It did not create any group of brain cells and generated into thoughts when I was a kid. And since I was always labeled as "nothing but an average person", I never thought of entering any organization in college.
And yes! When I was in highschool, anyone could call me "the quietest student" because I talk rarely. Talking was not my thing. I therefore conclude that I got into writing because of that. So what's the purpose of this post? It is to tell you my writing journey! :)
High school days, my English/Values teacher gave us a chance to write down our high school journey into a journal. And everyday, I can use 3 pages of my journal and it was all about what happened to me that day. When high school graduation was approaching, my English teacher told me that I have a future in writing and maybe that boost my eagerness to be a professional writer someday.
No one really appreciates my piece. Not until that teacher came to my life. Since then, I had the courage to let everyone read my box-of-writings, but unfortunately, it was killed, melted, and murdered by the flood caused by SANTI storm. The first person to read and edit my article entitled "A piece of advice" was my bestfriend, Regina Mondez, who inspires me a lot in writing. Second was my classmate and blogger bestfriend, Katy, who introduced me to BLOGGING.
At my 3rd year in college, with all the courage I have, I applied to "THE GEARS: The official publication the LSPU-SCC" as a Photojournalist. I love photography. I capture things and anything that I see. But one thing I love was creating a story out of it. So, they hired me as soon as that day. At first, I was afraid to write articles so I told them that I am just a photographer. And that makes me a liar. But I was inspired with my gears-mates who are younger than me. So after few months of entering THE GEARS, I encouraged my fingers to write down the words being formed in my brain. And surprisingly, many people was saying 'hi' and 'hello' to me just because they saw my epic face and my epic writing on a folio published by The Gears.I loved how they love my articles and my stories so I was inspired to do more. I also got into "news writing" (that I hate the most) when I took my on-the-job training at Provincial Capitol of Laguna - Management Information Systems Office. And I believe that being a web writer at MISO helped me a lot. And at present, I have 100 stories stuck in my mind and 3 short stories written, 1 short novel, almost 50+ essays and more news articles.
I know I still have millions steps away from my dream of being a professional writer. I've got thousands of grammatical error that I haven't learned yet. And I have hundreds or thousands of articles to write before I reach my goal. But I know that I already took the first step. So now, I just got 999,999 steps to go. :)
This post was to inspire people who just keep their writings under their bed or table. Go on! Read your past writings and see how you improved. Don't be shy in letting others read what you wrote. Don't be afraid to ask someone to proofread your article. And remember, if you cannot say it, write it. And never, never, never let go of your childhood dreams, it may become your destiny.
God bless you!

Top ten signs of TRUE LOVE
- Butterflies in my stomach - This is the most commonly described feeling of someone that is truly in love. When you get around that special someone, this sign of true love will become obvious.
- Trouble looking away - If you are with your true love, and you cannot take your eyes off of them, then you could be experiencing signs of true love. Then again, they may just have something stuck in their teeth at dinner so be careful.
- Others seem optional - One obvious sign of true love is that you do not wish to spend your time with anybody else. Most healthy love relationships get past this unhealthy side effect of true love, but in the beginning it is all about the two of you.
- Love songs suddenly make sense - True love can make a musical wimp out of any man or woman.
- Marriage lingers in your mind - Many people do not like to think about marriage under any circumstances. Still, when you are truly in love, the idea becomes more and more enticing. The thought of spending you entire life with them and building a family is not completely out of the question any longer.
- You do not mind the flaws - This is a very powerful sign of true love that is great indicator of how far you have come in a relationship. If their problems, flaws, and bad habits are not something that bothers you, then you are on step closer to true love and a happy marriage. If you are looking for perfection in relationships, you will be very lonely in the end.
- They are beautiful in the morning - If you have ever woke up and kissed your wife or husband before they have brushed their teeth then you are likely experiencing true love at its highest level. Messed up hair, bad breath, and yesterdays stale cologne cannot overcome true love.
- Children enter the picture - For the couple that decides that they want to have kids to make such a decision, true love is often the motivation. When you are really in love with someone, that special part of growing together becomes very attractive.
- You begin considering them first - Again, this is a great sign of true love that you do not even realize is happening. When you think of them before you sometimes, that is a very good sign.
- The kiss is more than a kiss - When you are truly in love and you kiss, it is not a normal kiss. Fireworks explode, and you feel weak in the knees. If you are not feeling those fireworks, and you are truly in love, then you are not doing it right.

Happy na Birthday pa. :)
10 years ago, I received this candle cake from my big brother. I was 9 years old then, and I was so happy when I received this wonderful gift. My kuya said, "Gift ko yan, para every year, sindihan mo yan, may cake ka na" Although I know I can't eat it, I still feel that if I light it up, I can have the most wonderful cake existed. Yet, I didn't really lighten it up. Why? IDK. I just want to preserve it because it was so important. On friday, I will be 19 years of age. Since that stage will be my last year of being a TEEN, I will light up the candle on the picture, at last after 10 years, why? because it means that I've been a successful TEEN AGER of my generation. The light tells that, I have lived the way a good teen ager should live. And lastly, this will be my second time to blow a a candle in a cake, first was when I celebrate my first year, and on the 17th day of Dec. Because of this Candle cake, I never asked my mom to bought me a cake, because what my brother says was stuck in my head. This cake teaches me to recycle and be creative. Not to be extravagant since we are quite less fortunate.
I thank the Lord for giving me another year to live. I will live it well and live it for His name.
God Bless!

Hold on and wait.
Hold on. I already posted maybe 4 months ago that I'm in love with my bestfriend. Yet, I am in love with him for almost 4 years. 2 years ago, I had a boyfriend, my EX-boyfriend was treated like a brother by my bestfriend. I'm actually bad when I broke up with him with the reason that I am still in love with my bestfriend. Then after I broke up with my ex, he had a gilrfriend, they lasted 8 months. During the times that he was so in love with his GF, my heart is bursting with jealousy and anger everytime he tells me their story. I know I don't have the right to get jealous, but i just can't accept that fact that he don't see me like the way he sees his girlfriend. My bestfriend didn't know anything about this feelings of mine, I don't know if it is the right thing to tell him but still, I will be HOLDING ON the reason that, I'M SIMPLY IN LOVE WITH HIM.
Wait. As you can read, 4 years. I've been in love with him for four years, if I waited 4 years, I could wait 4 more years, and more, until he love me. Maybe you will think of me as if I am an obsessed lover, maybe, but I can't just open my heart for anyone. My heart is entirely owned by God, and partly owned by my bestfriend. The song LOVE IS WAITING by Brooke Fraser really inspires me. It says there, "I'll be waiting for you baby, I'll be holding back the darkest night. Love is waiting till WE'RE READY, TILL IT'S RIGHT. LOVE IS WAITING."
One day, he cried in front of me while telling me how his girlfriend broke up with him. I do not know how to react, would I be happy? sad?. But at the end of our convo, I was mixed up. There was this quotes that he tells me, "I know that God has a reason why He allowed this to happen. I know that God is molding me up, and the girl for me, for us to be as perfect couple of God as we can be." And he tells me a story about a pastor and his bestfriend who got married just by telling each other, "Tara, pakasal tayo best?" But they have one of the best relationship in the earth.
I do not, (partly. XD) assume that I will be the one for my besfriend. But my prayers never stop and I never stop holding on and waiting until the moment where he will tell me that he loves me comes.
"EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE WITH GOD"
God bless!

TRUST
haiz...saya talaga maglingkod sa Lord. Trust in Him and He will not let you be in harm.
Story:(Not a true story, i just read it from my cp, but it is meaningful)
May isang girl na hatinggabi na umuwi ng solo dahil sa ginawa nilang project. Para maging mabilis ang pauwi niya, dumaan siya sa shortcut na daan. Sa kanto ng kalsada ay may dalawang lalaki na tila nagaabang sa kanya. Natakot siya na baka may mangyari sa kanyang masama. Pero hindi nanguna ang takot sa kanya. nagdasal siya at sinabi niyang, "Panginoon, ipinagkakatiwala ko po sa inyo ang sarili ko. Nawa po gabayan Niyo po ako at huwag Niyo po hahayaan na may mangyari sa aking masama." Sa moment na iyon, ipinagkatiwala niya sa Panginoon ang buhay niya. Lumakad siya ng normal at ng walang takot. Lumampas siya sa mga lalaki at nagpasalamat na walang nangyari sa kanya.Kinabukasan paggising niya, sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang ina na mayroong namatay at narape sa may kanto malapit sa kanila, narape daw ang babae ng magaalauna na ng umaga,nagkataong doon din siya dumaan noong gabing iyon. Dahil kilala pa niya ang mga mukha ng mga lalaking nakita niya noon, pumunta siya sa presinto upang makatulong. At hindi siya nagkamali sa hinala niya na iyon nga ang mga lalaki na pumatay at nangrape sa biktima. Dahil sa pagtataka ng pulis kung bakit kilala ng babae ang mga lalaki, tinanong siya ng pulis, "Dumaan ka din ba doon?", sagot naman siya, "opo, 12 na po ng hating gabi iyon" Sunod naman na tinanong ng pulis ang mga lalaki, "Nauna bang dumaan ang babaeng ito sa babaeng nirape nio?", sagaot naman ng mga lalaki, "Opo". Nagtanong muli ang pulis, "Mahirap man itanong ito, Bakit hindi siya ang pinagtangkaan ninyo gayong siya pala ang naunang dumaan.?" sagot naman na isang lalaki, "Dahil po mayroong siyang kasamang dalawang matangkad na lalaki sa tabi niya."
Lesson:
Sa kahit anong oras, huwag natin aalisin ang tiwala natin sa Panginoon dahil Siya lamang ang makakapagligtas sa atin sa oras ng kapahamakan. Magtiwala tayo sa Kanya ng buong puso at hindi Niya hahayaan na tayo'y mapahamak. Nawa nainspire kayo. Dahil nainspire ako noong mabasa ko ito noon.

A friend who never leaves
I have this friend
Who's always with me
She's there when I need
She's there and she never leaves
If I have problems
I share it with her
I tell her all my bad feelings
I tell her all, cause she cares
She care to listen
She care to comport me
She care to give advice
She care to love me
And when I cry at my room
She's there listening to me
But when I look at the mirror
I see nobody, just me
I realized that my friend
Is always there
Because it's me
My friend who never leaves
♥♥♥I made this post for those people who's in love with theirselves!
love yourself!!
But love God Above all!
God Bless!

A Piece of Advice
"Broken Hearted". When someone felt so hurt by someone they really love, they say they were broken. Yes, broken, in terms of feeling so empty and lost. Empty because you feel like you lost a big part in you by loosing the one you love.
When someone is broken hearted, sometimes they commit suicide, if not, they became "EMO", short term for emotional. Then start slashing their wrist. Why do they have to do that? For me, it's losing their everything, losing their selves, their life and their loved ones. And I can't find any reason why do they have to do such things.
Yes, they are broken. It means that they can't be in love. As I see in this generation, "EMO Boys" and "EMO Girls" have their bf's and gf's, and it's called "EMO LOVE". Yet they confirm to us and to their selves that were broken hearted.
There are people who go to places like bars and clubs to enjoy and forget their selves being broken. It's not a good idea for us to drink alcohol and smoke. Not everything is being fixed by drinking and smoking.
It's sad to look at the NEW generation, they're BROKEN! Broken by the attitudes they have now. As a piece of advice, broken hearts are not impossible to be fixed. If every pieces of your heart, big or small, is in GOD. He'll be the one to fix it, not just your heart, also your life. He died for you, so live for Him and nothing will ever break your heart. If you think that the world hates you, remember that the world first hated JESUS. But He never stopped loving us. So don't think that no one loves you, God loves you! and He loves us so much that He gave his only son to forgive our sins. There's no greater love, only the love of God!

Seeking God's will?
Well to start off, I'm talking about the right guy for you who is prepared by God himself. Seeking God's will is not that easy. You will start to meet some guy who fulfilled your happiness. And some are there just to play with you heart. Love is not a game. Nor a joke. It's is something that You must be serious. Because God is Love.Considering. It's somewhat says the first step. It is looking for someone whom you think is a perfect guy and who must be deserving to be considered.
( How may I know if he deserves it?) As a Christian, You must know the differences between the unbeliever and believer. The believer is a Christian who is committed and in love, even not with you, he must be in love with God. If you him beyond what the eyes can see. It's like judging him not by his looks but by his attitude. *Beauty only gets attention, but personality captures the heart* It's true that you can easily see his looks. But looks do fades away by the years he spend. but the attitude he has just stay.
After considering, PRAY FOR HIM. Every night, every day! even every hour. God hears all your prayers. He never sleeps. He know what your heart desires. He know what can make you happy. Surrender you feelings to Him. Ask Him if the one you are considering is His' will. God will be the one to lead you on the right path. He will lead your heart to the right man.
If God has given you the sign that the one you are considering is His' will. Just pray. Pray Until Something Happens. Anything happens because it is God's plan. Because you already met the guy, make him happy just like the way he makes you happy. Love him endlessly and never ever scold him nothing. Because He is a Christian, you will worry nothing. Praise God together, love God and You will have the happiest moments that an unbeliever can't have. It is the happiness that can't be compared to the expensive things. It is just simply having the happiest life with Him and most especially, with God.
Thank You and God Bless! Keep on looking for God's will, maybe you've seen it already but you just don't pay attention!
Love You all!
