As constant as the sun...

I love rainy days specially when it rains at night, I consider it a treat when im about to sleep and then it rains hard, wow, I just hope it wont stop. Oh, how I love to listen to the rhythym of the falling rain, it brings back wonderful rainy memories. As the song goes "listen to the rhythym of the falling rain, telling me just a fool Ive been, I wish that I could go and let me cry in vain, and let me be alone again". I guess we all have unique and wonderful rain stories

I also love sunrise, its one of the best scenes that Im really excited about, willing to wait at from dawn till I see those rays of sunlight slowly revealing itself like a live painting changing before my very eyes. Its like God's constant love, though there maybe clouding skies but we know that God is always there to give that warmth in our lives that he only can give, His warmth could only satisfy. There's this romantic song "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me appy when skies are gray, you never know dear how much I love, please dont take my sunshine away". And Im certain we also have unique sunshine stories.

Because God's goodness is as constant as the sun, we are in danger of forgetting what he showers on us each day. If we count our blessings one by one, we'll never get finished.

Too bad we cant crack tomorrow open...

I think so much about tomorrow, its something I think much about and end up wondering what tomorrow would be. im just reminded of the song quesera quesara, "what will be will be, the future's not ours to see quesera, quesera, what will be will be". Of course, i dream of a wonderful tomorrow, but how will we know when tomorrow never comes, hehehehe, that then reminds me of a James Bond movie ( its hard to hide my love for Pierce Brosnan). Sigh! Often times, i end up daydreaming, ah tomorrow would be like this and like that and oh my list could go on and on and on until infinity but well, then we cant crack tomorrow open. Its full of surprises, its full of colors we cant imagine or it could then be colorless or no surprise at all.
Its like opening a partly cooked egg, we will spoil it if we try to see how they doing while we cook them, like our lives if we try to meddle tomorrow we would spoil today and tomorrow. All we can do is leave this to God, linger on His promise that he will care for us everyday and live by faith one day at a time. Tomorrow is just a sleep away and that we surrender to God our issues and allow Him to take over. I remind myself always, and thank God how wonderful the plans he have for me and for all of us. Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us that " 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." A wonderful promise that I dont have to worry anything God is interested with my issues and I just have to leae everything to Him. Thats why I just try to compose myself and think about the wonderful promises when fear and worry attack me.

We walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7

Let not the flood waters overflow me

Let not the flood waters over flow me, nor the deep swallow me up. Psalm 69:15

It was my cry for help, I thought it was the end of everything. A life threatening experience, all I saw were happy moments in my life flashed like movie in seconds and I remembered the river guides warning swim in one direction if trapped under the rubber boat. Idid with all my might, frantically swam towards the right and reached the top and praised God for another chance. It was a joyful moment, with all the shouting and cheering enjoying the rafting experience and split second I was there under the rubber boat struggling to survive. I dont know how to swim but the life jacket was an assurance that I wont drown.

Im in trouble.
And now im in deep water, reaching up grabbing God's hands for mercy. Its stupidity that brought me in this state and godly wisdom to save me from this complex im in. Im trapped. And like a rat lost in a maze Im sniffing my way out, thinking that enough motivation can bring me to where the reward is and the reward of finding the way out is my only refuge. God is my refuge in times of trouble, and in the time of trouble He shall set me high upon a rock. I feel alone, lonely and hurting but I know God will always be there to guarantee His support.

When trouble over takes, let God take over!

While Im Waiting

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Takeing every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord
Send "While I'm Waiting" Ringtone to your Cell

Dance of Life

There were two hearts who met in a dance. That moment was magical. There was sweet song playing, there was harmony and then soon there was love in the air. they fell in love and started building castles in their dremas and promised forever with all eternity. But somewhere in the midst of the fun they got lost in the dance, something went wrong but they can never do anything, they were just drifting away, their fortress falling apart. there many questions but no got an answer.
The music stopped and there was silence.
When we truly love someone, we give our best and let the person see the pureness of our intention. Sometimes that person makes us cry and hurts us for the wrong reason. That someone must have loved us but has not loved us enough to make her/him stand for what she/he truly felt.
Now we are faced with with the seemingly impossible task of forgetting, we have burdened ourselves long enough but we cant still get out of the emotional trap. Let us remember that the more we try to forget someone we love, the more painfull letting go will become.
Simetimes we never have to take that person out of our hearts at all, for he/she will always be there no matter how hard we try to drive him/her away. It isnt this presence that makes this difficult. its our stubborness to accept our destiny that aligns forgetting next to impossible. We keep a cold face ut deep in our hearts, there is still that lingering hope for reconciliation. Somehow we still believe that we can rekindle small embers and relight the fire that once burned in our hearts. These thoughts give us hope but it also breeds the seeds of loneliness and despair.
The only way to forget is to accept that the only way to move on is to look ahead and let the foot prints of the past be blown by the wind of time. Only then can our hearts find a partner in the dance of life and hopefully never be lost again.

I have Fallen In Love

Lyrics By Ninoy Aquino
Music by Jose Mari Chan
For Cory Aquino

I have fallen in love
With the same woman three times
In a day spanning nineteen years
Of tearful joys and joyful tears.

I loved her first when she was young
Enchanting and vibrant, eternally new
She was brilliant, fragrant and cool as the morning dew
I fell in love with her the second time

When first she bore her child and mine
She's always by my side, the source of my strength
Helping to turn the tide…
I fell in love again with the same woman the third time

Looming from the battle her courage will never fade.
Amidst the hardships she has remained
Undaunted and unafraid
She is calm and composed. She is God's lovely maid.
