Yung tipong nasa bus ka lang or MRT tapos biglang magpaparamdam si Lord?

Grabe, nasa MRT lang ako tapos pag-upo ko, boom! Ang kapal lang ng presence ni Lord sa place na yun. In His presence, sobrang magiging stunned ka. Everything else is arbitrary. Whatever I was thinking or wherever I am, when His presence manifests, all burden and thought is abandoned! In His perfect presence, I am moved in tears at how holy, perfect, and merciful He is. My heart naturally turns into worship in great awe and wonder of who He is. 

Truth be told, gusto ko sana pumunta sa gitna ng MRT at kumanta at sumayaw para kay Lord, pero buti nalang binigyan niya rin ako ng wisdom para hindi ako maging reason bakit magsstumble ang mga nakatingin saakin. HAHAHA.

Experiences like these make me extremely joyful and glad! Kasi alam kong totoo yung sinabi ni Lord na whether I live or die, I am with Him! Level up ang understanding ko ng omnipresence ni Lord! Bongga! :)

God keeps on reminding me that it’s not about what you wear, who you’re partying with, or how much money you make. Life is about God.

Anonymous asked: Is it wrong to question religion as long as not to question God?

As a believer of the tri-une God, I believe that anything that directly disobeys the bible should be questioned. :) 

Hello! :) Today, I wanted to write about something that’s in my heart lately. Something that I have learned from, something that inspires me to look forward for my future.

As all of you may have known, I’ve come out of my depressing shell very victorious. All thanks to Jesus who never gave up even when I was so unreasonable and irritable.   I’m so thankful that I have Him in my life. I thought that there were others who could help God comfort me, but in the end I saw that it was just Him who can really and drastically comfort me the way that I need to be comforted. No one, and I mean it, no one can know you more than your Maker. 

I knew that in those moments, I was lacking. I was lacking because I didn’t love God the way He deserves to be loved. I only loved Him a little. I sought Him a little. I cared for Him a little. I was in a sea of problems but I was so proud to let God handle it. I just really.. didn’t love God. What’s more perplexing with the situation is that I was not moved by the situation. I treated my starving spiritual life as a rash that I thought could get better by just letting it be. There was no alarm, I was just letting everything be. But, I still did the ‘christian’ obligatory things like reading my bible and uttering a few words to God. 

Isn’t it—sorry for my words—pathetic? I am a woman who experienced God, who saw His glory, and lived the miracles that He has given me! Yet, where did I find myself in on those moments? Where was I? I think the answer lies within my heart. The world has calloused my system, and there is no hope that’s left in me. Rather than looking at the truth, I looked at the reality. The reality is, I have no money, I have a lot of insincere ‘friends’, someone broke my heart and it feels like I’m never going to recover from him, my dad does not care about me, and I have no future with my current standing in college. But the truth is, Jesus said, He is my provider and I will never be in lack, that He is an unchanging friend that loves me with an everlasting love, that He is also my Father that cares for me, and that I have a hope and a future that He specifically planned for me. 

I don’t know how I was pulled back to see the truth. I sure did not try harder to pray, nor did I try to meditate more. But I did pray sincerely to God for one thing—that is for me to start loving Him again more than this world, more than any other man, more than my business, more than my family, more than my life, more than my anything. I prayed it sincerely, and God just placed an indescribable peace in my heart. Right that very moment, my heart was filled with so much hope. I began seeing more meaning in the things in life, and even on the things that I do. 

So there. If you don’t love God now, then don’t lose hope. You only have to ask of Him, and He will faithfully answer. 

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.  I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. -Jeremiah 29:11-14

Everyday with you Lord, is sweeter than day before!  (Listen at the song here) 

Hello! 

It’s so amazing, and wonderful. Remember how emo and reflective I am of my situations the past few days? Well, I’ve been pulled out of that black hole of seemingly endless place of darkness and despair. :) yey!

I don’t really know how and when it all started, but all I know is that I prayed to God about my situation, almost everyday before I sleep. I would cry endlessly and pray for the hurt to be gone. Everyday, after praying, I would weep myself back to sleep. It wasn’t an easy season for me, and I thought I would never overcome. But during this season I learned, that it is not by my strength that I can move on with life and have joy. Moving on can only be achieved when you acknowledge your weakness and inability to do it to God, and when you depend on the strength that He gives you to turn away from the things that are not from Him(i.e. doubts about future, shame from your mistakes, feeling of condemnation, etc.)

I also learned that moving on takes determination. You have to be determined to look at Jesus and not on what slimy pit has entrapped you. Whatever quicksand/slimy pit/black hole is out there pulling you, Jesus is faster and stronger than that and He can instantly pull you through it. I testify that it is true. 

Especially when I realized that there is something missing in my ‘pag-amin’. I realized that I was praying to God about taking all my hurt and pain away, but then again, I still have not forgiven truly the people that caused me this troubles that I am experiencing. God.. revealed to me what’s keeping me from enjoying the life that He has purchased for me. I didn’t have to ‘try harder’ for me to realize that, but it was only because God chose to reveal it to me. God can make things happen, even the ones the I thought would not ever happen. 

So now, I stand, joyful and relieved that God has pulled me out of that season already. Although the season to experience the slimy black hole is finished, I still have some bruises and wounds that I need to be healed with. But it’s nothing! haha, compared to the pain I had before, I’m definitely thankful that I only have these few ones remaining in my life. Rejoice! :D

So, I end with this word, that truly encompasses all the experiences that I had this past season. :) Thank you Lord, you are faithful. :)

To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory. (NLT)

‘and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.’ (NIV)

Isaiah 61:3
