Daily postings went on a halt due to this user's very busy week. At work, it's the month end activities that really occupied my time. Outside work, it's the church events that also made me busy. We had inter-church sportsfest (where I don't feel like I deserved being called a staff because I had little contributions) and our church' 16th anniversary a week after, which is today. Hopefully after this, everything will be a bit slow this time. I want to relax—it seemed like I…
Anyone wants to greet me a happy birthday? :)) Y'all, this user has turned 25 today. My birthdays are a constant reminder of how fast time flies. What can I say for the year that passed by? I worked hard. I cried a lot. I thought of giving up many times more than I did before. However, I picked myself up and gathered a lot more courage compared to the previous year. I will not say I am brave, because I did all of those things scared. I had a lot of fear, but I pushed to make…
first time posting in my language in 3..2..1.. siguro nga kasiyahan din ito. kasi hindi ako umiiyak, walang mabigat. hindi na gaya ng dati, na parang dumadaan lang ang mga araw habang nasa iisang tungtungan ang aking mga paa. mayroon pa ring pinaghihirapan, pero mas may lakas para lumaban. 'yug tipong sa pagtapos ng araw, may inaasahan? ang sarap pala kapag ganoon ang pakiramdam 'yung mga ginagawa ko meron palang pinatutunguhan. 'yung bawat araw at gabi, di pala nasasayang.…
Today was overall a cold day. Cold and rainy enough to lure me back to sleep this morning. But I have to work. It's nowhere near the end of the work week, yet this weather just makes the struggle harder. Today is yet another day to thank God for all accomplishments and answered prayers. It was not an easy day, but I conquered. Tomorrow is work from home day, so I get to have more hours of sleep tonight. Anyway, half an hour before 12am. Thank You, Lord for today! Glory all…
What a rainy day it has been! A funny story to tell: All the way commuting to work was okay—it's quite darker than usual mornings due to gloomy weather, yet it's not raining. Jeepney rides, bus ride, they're all fine. However, as soon as I arrived on my destination, it started pouring. Yes, not droplets—I meant, downpour. It's a fifteen to twenty minute-walk to our office building, and yes, I walked while the sky started breaking down. My pants were drenched. My shoes and my…
If I were to be honest, I get gloomy when Sunday night comes. That means Monday is only a few hours away. I know I'm grateful for having a job, but I can't just deny the fact that this is not something I enjoy. If there'd be other more enjoyable means to earn money and get by, I'd be happy to switch. Yet, with my skills set and a mild fear of the unfamiliar, I work hard to near with it everyday. This field can be frustrating. I am not fond of the long working hours, plus the…
To be honest.. I don't want to be here anymore. And whenever this kind of feeling comes, only one thing goes straight to mind. Ask Him. Ask the One who's in control of everything, the One who can see the bigger picture, the further future. Consult Him who created You and loves you more than you'll ever reciprocate. The constant in our lows, the promise-keeper. God wants to be involved in Your life. Though He is in it regardless, He wants us to "want to" rely to him. So, even…
Half of Monday, I still have a lot of tasks going on. Hopefully this energy I stored can help me throughout the day. Mondays are always busy! God, I know You'll help me. Thank you Father. In Jesus' Name. Amen!
Thirteen minutes before end of today.. it was a productive Monday. More sleep really does wonders, right? It's been so long since I last had dreams because I barely slept. That's my goal starting yesterday, to get more sleep as I can. I want to treat my body right, so I won't regret in the long run. I declare that tomorrow's gonna be a better, more productive day, in Jesus' Name, Amen!
Thank You, Lord God, for bringing me home safe and sound. I had a hearty dinner and a lil playtime with our dog, and now I am in my room, planning to watch some short clips before sleeping. Thank You, Papa God, for today. Tomorrow's even gonna be a better day, in Jesus' Name! Amen.
Prioritize quiet time with God everyday. Let's start at least 10-15 minutes of our day meditating God's word, with prayer and thanksgiving. You can be assured the rest of the day—the week, even—will go smoothly. I admit I haven't done this for quite a while and I've started again doing it. Find the time when everything's quiet and not yet busy, when we can actually talk to Him and meditate His word. Use a pen & notebook to write your learnings. And do your best to apply it…
