Let's pray for our brothers and sisters in Tacloban and the Visayas


Psalm 46[a]

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.[b] A song.

God is our refuge and strength,

    an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
    and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
    and the mountains quake with their surging.[c]
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,

    the holy place where the Most High dwells.
God is within her, she will not fall;
    God will help her at break of day.
Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
    he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
The Lord Almighty is with us;

    the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Come and see what the Lord has done,

    the desolations he has brought on the earth.
He makes wars cease
    to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
    he burns the shields[d] with fire.
10 
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”
11 
The Lord Almighty is with us;

    the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Shine your light

In the parking lot of the coffee shop
Just the other day
She smiled and she said, "Well I'm doin' okay"
But I felt her pain
I took her hand in mind
Said, "It's gonna work out fine"
But as she turned I wondered
Did I just hand her a line


What she needed most was a word of hope
And a prayer or two
A little more time and a timely word
Could have pulled her through
So I think of her
And I wonder too
Is anybody hurting
And sitting right next to you

Shine the light, share the faith
Show the world that Jesus is the answer
That Jesus is the way
Together we can make a difference
Be a beacon in the dark of night
Share your faith
Hold it high
Shine the light

Anywhere you go, any country road
Or city street
Any lonely life, a hurting heart
Somebody in need
They all ask one thing
Where is love and truth
But if you know Jesus
Then you know what to do

Shine the light, share the faith
Show the world that Jesus is the answer
That Jesus is the way
Together we can make a difference
Be a beacon in the dark of night
Share your faith
Hold it high
Shine the light

Let your light so shine
So everybody will see Jesus
Let your light so shine
To glorify your Father in Heaven

Shine the light, share the faith
Show the world that Jesus is the answer
That Jesus is the way
Together we can make a difference
Be a beacon in the dark of night
Share your faith
Hold it high
Shine the light

Plants make us happy


looks like plastic but this is  a real one

A number of my senior citizen subscribers thought this was plastic. One was even surprised coz she thought it was plastic, she even asked where I bought the plant. Its just a home grown plant maam.
This cute plant brought joy to my heart and brought joy to those who came today. Plants make us happy. They remind us of God's wonderful creation. It allows us to show the care for them rather than think of ourselves.

The benefits of plants

You don’t have to be an environmental psychologist to understand that plantslook attractive. But dig a little deeper beneath their beauty and you’ll discover that the benefits of interior landscaping go far beyond the aesthetic.
Recent research tells us that interior plants are good for buildings and people in a variety of subtle ways. Interior landscaping plays a vital role in providing a pleasant and tranquil environment in which to move, work or relax.

Plants help reduce stress and create a feeling of well-being

Most of us know instinctively that being close to greenery makes us feel more at ease with our surroundings. We experience less stress when there are plants around us. Buildings are quieter and more relaxed but, at the same time, more stimulating and interesting. A substantial body of academic research, has shown conclusively that interior landscaping has dramatic effects on the wellbeing of building occupants.
People in offices are more productive, take fewer sick days, make fewer mistakes. And they are happier when interior landscaping enhances their environment.
Patients in hospitals benefit greatly from being more in touch with nature. There is even evidence showing students perform better in improved learning environments.
Make your workplace a happier, more productive environment. Call us at (888) 890-7301, or contact us online.

Plants help improve air quality

There is general agreement amongst scientists that plants improve the indoor environment and are useful in fighting the modern phenomenon of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS).
No specific cause of SBS has been identified but poor air quality, excessive background noise and inadequate control of light and humidity are all thought to be important factors.
Because plants have large surface areas and exchange gases and water with their surroundings, plants can help tackle some of these issues.
Particular benefits of interior plants include:
  1. Reducing carbon dioxide levels
  2. Increasing humidity
  3. Reducing levels of certain pollutants, such as benzene and nitrogen dioxide
  4. Reducing airborne dust levels
  5. Keeping air temperatures down
Improve you indoor environment. Call us at (888) 890-7301, or contact us online.
Learn more about the benefits of interior landscaping, also discover the role of these benefits in Green' buildings and sustainable building management.

Plants help lower background noise

Plants have long been used to reduce noise from busy roads. More recently, research has shown another benefit: interior plants can help to reduce background noise levels inside buildings, too.
Our own studies indicate that plants and their leaves absorb, diffract or reflect background noise, thereby making the environment more comfortable for the occupants.
With our support, Peter Costa, a postgraduate student at South Bank University, London, found that certain plants are particularly good at absorbing high frequencies.
Plants absorb sound best in acoustically live spaces, such as those that feature hard surfaces. Learn more about the benefits of interior landscaping.

Wacky friday with bff

wacky day with bff, thank you TGIF for a yummy and spicy meal

After the window shopping, it was the perfect time to feed the tired and hungry tummy. Loved TGIF for the great food and the cozy place to chitchat and just relax.
."When we consider the blessings of God—the gifts that add beauty and joy to our lives, that enable us to keep going through stretches of boredom and even sufferingfriendship is very near the top."

—Donald W. McCullough, Mastering Personal Growth
1 Samuel 18:1–3 
After David had finished talking with Saul, he met Jonathan, the king’s son. There was an immediate bond between them, for Jonathan loved David. From that day on Saul kept David with him and wouldn't let him return home. And Jonathan made a solemn pact with David, because he loved him as he loved himself.(NLT)
Proverbs 17:17
A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need. (NLT)
Faithful Friends are a Rare Treasure
Proverbs 18:24
There are “friends” who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother. (NLT)
Reliable Friends are Hard to Find
Proverbs 20:6
Many will say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is truly reliable? (NLT)
Purity and Integrity Gain the Friendship of Kings
Proverbs 22:11
Whoever loves a pure heart and gracious speech will have the king as a friend. (NLT)
The Wrong Friends Can Have a Negative Influence
Proverbs 22:24–25
Don’t befriend angry people or associate with hot-tempered people, or you will learn to be like them and endanger your soul. (NLT)
Sincere Friends Speak the Truth in Love, Even When it Hurts
Proverbs 27:5-6
An open rebuke is better than hidden love! Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy. (NLT)

Stress busters....

the choco moist cake, so perfect 

the treat to beat
     Thank God we survived the third day due date streak. Today is a lot better than monday and tuesday. Was more calm today and less stressful with these sweet treats to warm the heart and inspire the weak body.  Tomorrow is another day and hoping its a day full of smiles and joy.

Perhaps today did not start out well for you. Maybe you face a host of trouble that threatens to turn this into a day of despair. Turn your attention to Jesus. Review what He did for you at Calvary and how He conquered death by His resurrection: “He is not here; for He is risen”! (Matt. 28:6). That can make any day a glorious day!
Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;
Buried, He carried my sins far away;
Rising, He justified freely forever;
One day He’s coming—O glorious day! —Chapman
Christ’s empty tomb fills us with hope.

Guyabano capsules

dreid guyabano leaves enclosed in gelatine capsules
      I found out that I have cyst on my left breast which about .5 cm in size. The first time the doctor informed me about my condition I turned emotional and a lot of things flashed like a movie in my mind. But that was five or six years ago. Now, Im still on the denial stage and fear on the sideline. I refuse to have check ups and other tests, for fear of the result, it may not be what I wanted it to be. It may be something that I would fear hearing. Even my spiritual leader Ate Babes and kuya Bernie got worried about it coz I am just complacent about it and just set the issue aside.

     Ate babes gave me this guyabano capsule for me to take. I got nothing to lose so I tried it and still take it twice a day. There are no therapuetic claims about this guyabano fruit and its even termed as the miracle fruit. I leave it all to God. My health, my life, my future. Its all up to Him.

    With my remaining time, Id like to give honor and glory to God, all praises and adoration all to Him. He is my healer and I trust every thing to Him.

These promises He gave to me.

"He said, 'If you listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His eyes, if you pay attention to His commands and keep all of His decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.' "   Exodus 15:26


"The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace." Numbers 6:24-26

"For the life of a creature is in the blood..."  Leviticus 17:11  [Our blood permits physical life; His blood heals and gives eternal life.]

"And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness..." Deuteronomy 7:15  [If you follow His commands and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior]

"Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid nor dismayed for the Lord is with you wherever you go."  Joshua 1:9

"In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.

"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."  Psalms 23:4

"If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me."  Psalms 66:18
"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all your iniquities; Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit; Who crowns you with loving kindness and compassion; Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like an eagle." Psalms 103:1-5

Praise the Lord, my soul, and never forget all the good he has done: He is the one who forgives all your sins, the one who heals all your diseases."  Psalms 103:2-3
"Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent forth His word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave." Psalms 107:19-20

Mamahaw ta!

the best combo for a sumptous breakfast
Mamahaw Ta - translated in English as Lets' eat breakfast.

I'm your chef on thursday mornings and this is the best combo for the day.

Fried eggs, fried hotdogs and fried dried fish  from Surigao thanks to our dried fish sponsor Kuya Jerry.

How about you what did you ate for breakfast?

Happy thursday morning to all.

Our sin is a barrier that separates us from God (Isa. 59:2). But “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Jesus took care of the barrier to God’s love by His sacrificial death on the cross and His resurrection (Rom. 5:8-17; 8:11). Now He longs for us to experience His love and accept this gift.
My heart is stirred whene’er I think of Jesus,
That blessed Name that sets the captive free;
The only Name through which I find salvation,
No name on earth has meant so much to me. —Eliason
Through His cross, Jesus rescues and redeems.

7.2 Eartquake October 15, 2013


I
Its a lovely tuesday mornig, feeling blessed with great weather, great breakfast and most exciting about is that its a holiday.

WOw!

No work.

Its a day that I anticipated much coz I finally have this day to groom my plants, general cleaning, just chilling in bed, not getting to bath early.

 Wow!

I so super dooper ultra mega hyper....

After the load of a two week old laundry, pants, clothes, undies, t shirts, shorts and office clothes I got my hands dirty with soil and my brow sweating.

And while I was getting soil, I felt a bit dizzy  and indeed its an earthquake.

I saw the mango trees swaying and the wires moving.

It was longer than expected and I somehow panicked and just stood there waiting for it to end.

The the news came about old churches in bohol and cebu damaged by the earthquake and a number of people died. This is something out of our control and what we can do is pray for the families who lost their loved ones.

Chocoballs fund raising

better late than never fund raising sa center folks

Getting busy for the conference preparations for Oct 31 to November 3 @ Mt Moriah in Malaybalay.While practicing the body binding and bone breaking moves, we have to do the sideline of making these chocoballs. Nag trending lang sa red cross (many thanks to shad ) and blockbuster sa parasat  ( many thanks to Erna) and sold out sa CCT ( thanks to Jean). Though we have to make dokdok the ace crackers and make lingin lingin for the balls the ladies are doing it with joy and enthusiam to raise funds for the said conference. 
Excited much na to see you guys. Hope many will be able to the conference, we just have to help one another, motivate one another to save, we still have three weeks more to go we still have time.

Another way that God provides is by instructing those with plenty to share with those in need (Deut. 24:19). So when it comes to provision, the message of the Bible is this: Work while we can, save what we can, share what we can, and trust God to meet our needs.
Thank You, Lord, for the promise that You will
meet our needs. Help us not to fear or doubt.
We’re grateful that You’re watching over us
and that our cries for help reach Your ear.
Our needs will never exhaust God’s supply.
