Drawing closer and closer

Its a beautiful rainy day. My heart is yearning for more, craving for more of you Oh Lord.
Its my desire, Oh Lord, to draw near to You. Moment by moment.
Drawing closer and closer, through Your word,
Through the Holy Spirit, for to will and to act is not mine but Yours.
A giddy feeling, i'm falling in love with You Oh Lord.
I love you Lord.
I love you, since You loved me first.
I dont want to seek You only when I'm down,
But i long to seek You all the days of my life.

Drawing closer and closer to you
From the moment I woke up, I pray that its you I seek,
not the message on my mobile phone nor the update on my face book nor the tweet on my twitter.
Drawing closer to you as I face my subscribers, as I serve them, Lord give me patience,
Let me hear their woes and not react,
Let me take time to listen than to hurry,
Let me give quality service than quantity.
And at times I fail give me a humble heart to accept correction.

As I draw closer and closer, Lord
Let me serve with joy,
I admit that many times I frown,
But im confident that As I draw closer, Id be more smiling and accommodating.

And before I lay my head to sleep,
let Your word shield me and my heart be filled with gratitude and love of Your
faithfulness and Your goodness.

Im inspired, im kilig much and Im back....

Hello
Im back, the last blog update was June 9, almost months ago.
I just cant fight this feeling any more.Im too inspired. I have to blog this.  I was never this gaga over a love team before until ALDUB you came. Lola Nidora's words of wisdom

     I never tweeted this much dont know even how to tweet and now the Alduberkads taught me how and how I became from a tweeter then turned abangers, and team replay. I never stalked this much. Ive been stalking Meng and enjoyed reading her blog, but today to my surprise, was not able to read she already exceeded here bandwidth, for sure she's been very busy the past few days. Ive been been this kilig much by any love team until ALDub came. Always bring goose bumps and kilig factor, and made me feel how lovely it is to fall in love and be inlove.

  In love with the LOrd should be my main agenda.  I also realized, I hope I could be this excited in reading God's word, also stalking God, and being kilig with God. I should always be, it should always be more than the ALDUB kilig factor. For HE is a jealous GOd and expects utmost adoration from me in all that I do. Also a reminder for all of us as fans, always remember that our relationship with God is more important than anything else. And at the end of the its between God and me, my relationship with that matters most.

Waiting for Linsanity Version 2.0

Im a lin fan. Im so linlove and Im bored.  Why does time seems to drag in the basketball world.
There's still the asian tour and free agency and a lot more going on. Its still the finals season and its just boring without Lin in the limelight. Waited for linsanity 2.0 to happen but it didnt. Byron was a coach who made all he can to stop or prevent linsanity from happening in LA. He made a good job making it stressful for Lin and ending a very tiring season  for Lin. Got to wait a little more longer,  wait for the finals to finish and then free agency and I hope next season is for Lin, just for Lin. Im just one of the fans rooting for Lin and will be there to support him all the way. After the finals then free agency, I dream of a Lin-D Antoni reunion and a team that will let him play his type of game. Go Lin.

Hoping for Linsanity 2.0

Because Im Choleric, Its not an excuse

          If you are a customer like me and you look like this like me, surely the customers will feel scared. Maybe you would have second thoughts in approaching or  giving your concerns. Hmmm I have received side comments about the way I look, stern face, heavy face, not smiling. Well, it hurts and its the truth and often time I retaliate, I rebel and i justify myself. Just like what happened this morning, the lady was looking for the sweet and kind customer beside me. And when she left, I heard them conversing with the guard and I accidentally heard the word "bug-at ug nawong" which means heavy face or stern face not friendly face. I got a little defensive about it. And realized that I should have a godly response to this kind of situation.

        I know I should take it on the lighter side and use the criticism as positively as I can, for change for the better, for me to improve. My temperament is never an excuse for me to justify my short comings. I know its a personal matter but I should apply all that I have learned, and a question popped and I asked myself is Christlikeness reflected in my actions and how I deal with people? Have I become a blessing?  I know I should reflect God's love and mercy to others.  I got guilty about it,  I know I should have been kinder and should have been its a challenge for me to improve. I have to smile because a customer service should be helpful, should be friendly and should be approachable with a light face not a heavy face.

How to look approachable:
1. Smile - though  have tantrums I should serve with a smile.
2. Be patient - Im impatient and I know to be an effective servant I should listen and take time to wait for the subscribers, not hurry but have quality time with them.
3. Smile - I have to remind myself as constantly as I can coz I have the tendency to have that tiger look which could be scarry to look at.
4. Be accommodating -   dont make subs feel they are not welcome
5. Smile
6. Pray
7. Begin the day with God's word.
8. Pray always.

Trust His Heart

Trust His Heart

All things work for our good

Though sometimes we don't

See how they could

Struggles that break our hearts in two

Sometimes blind us to the truth

Our Father knows what's best for us

His ways are not our own

     So when your pathway grows dim
            And you just don't
         Remember your never alone

Chorus:

God is too wise to be mistaken

God is too good to be unkind

So when you don't understand

When don't see his plan

When you can't trace his hand

Trust His Heart

He sees the master plan

He holds the future in his hand,

So don't live as those who have no hope,

ALL our hope is found in him.

We see the present clearly

He sees the first and last

And like a tapestry He's weaving you and me,

To someday be just like him

(Chorus)

He alone is faithful and true

He alone knows what is best for you

(Chorus)

When you can't trace his hand

When you don't see his plan

When you don't understand

Trust His Heart

My Song for the month, Introduced by our bible study leader. Its a song that touches the heart and comforts us. Its a song that I will be singing to remind myself of how I am loved by God. All His plans for me, all the hope that I can only find in Him. He knows whats best for me, even if at times I grope in the dark and His light is the only light I see, a glimmer of hope, as intricate as a tapestry He wove me and as complex as the the puzzle He has a arranged everything for me. Though at times I may not fully comprehend it, or at times I seem not to understand I just have to trust His heart. Not mine, not others but His.

Change for the better

If a picture paints a thousand words......
I hope there could be a painting that could somehow describe what Im feeling right now. I feel hopeless, I feel annoyed, bitter and angry. But I have to look ok and pretend everything is awesome. I want to cry, but I wont. I refuse to. I dont want to. Then, if it would have been a painting, what would it look. It would look terrible to look at with those terrible emotions. Im a pych major graduate and I cant apply those theories to myself. Tsk tsk tsk

No matter how I try, no matter how I pray, things are just beyond me. Its beyond my control, no matter how much effort I exert on getting on my knees and beg God. Its all up to Him. But more often may be im just creating that impression on people, and I end up getting hurt and getting nasty side comments in the end.  But, God is in control, I believe He will complete what He has started, the answers to my prayers may not be given today, it may not always be a yes, a no and wait. I know I will have to embrace that with a hopefull heart. He is a God who will always true to His promised, I will wait on Him, patiently. Change for the better. I hope I also change for the better, not just expect others to be so, but for that change to start in me.

Ways to cope such emotion:
1. Say all you want to say to that person.
2. Then, if that person answer, defend yourself.
3. If the person defends, then answer back.
4. If that person tell you to shut up, then shut up. Just blog.
5. Let it all out, blog it, express it.
6. Just pound the keyboard as hard as you can with words.
7. Take a deep breath.
8. Smile.
9. Pray.
10. Pray.
11. Memorize bible verses
12. Claim God's promises.
13. ACCEPT. You cant please yourself and you cant please everyone and everyone cant please you.

Salvation Poem song Lyrics

I taught this salvation to kids on sunday school last sunday and was so amazed with how the children learned the song so fast. It was just the second sunday that I taught them through the video with lyrics, even the small kids that does not know how to read was able to memorize the song by repetition. To God be the glory! Here's the song.

Salvation Song lyrics

Hesus sa krus ikay namatay

Nabuhay muli para mundoy iligtas

Kasalanan ko ay patawarin Mo

Maging panginoon kaibigan ko

Tulugan mong magsimula muli buhay koy alay Iyo

Tulugan mong magsimula muli buhay koy alay Iyo

Hesus sa krus ikay namatay

Nabuhay muli para mundoy iligtas

Kasalanan ko ay patawarin Mo

Maging panginoon kaibigan ko

Tulugan mong magsimula muli buhay koy alay Iyo

Tulugan mong magsimula muli buhay koy alay Iyo

Alay sa Iyo

Here's the English Version

Jesus you die upon the cross

And rose again to save the lost

Forgive me now of all my sin

Come be my savior, lord and friend

Change my life and make it new]

And help me lord to live for you]2

Today, im inspired to blog

Its another day, a brand new day. 

I have decided to be inspired to blog.

I have lots of complaints the previous days, about work, 

about life, about problems, slow internet connection, 

just anything that comes to mind, 

I have something to side comment about.

But today, Im just inspired to blog.

Im thankful for the three weeks rest and vacation.
 I thank God that I was able to enjoy His creation.

Brilliantly disguised as impossible situations

We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.

Charles R. Swindoll

Wow, Chuck Swindoll is an all time favorite of mine, I bought one ebook that cost me less than five  hundred pesos and ts was worth the purchase. Each line filled with so much wisdom, that I have to read it over and over again to digest the meaty message. Very well written, words piercing through and digging deep into the chambers of my heart, words resonating, clingling, reminded of God's unfathomable love.

The past few days, I confess that I have magnified the impossible situations not seeing the great opportunities that goes with the emotional roller coaster, guilty of not really inviting God to help me survive the day of complaints, negativity, problems, concerns of subscribers for the day. What a shame? Shame on me! I felt that it was all me, and to the extent of blaming myself.There were times, I felt like breaking and silly thoughts coming and worst even thoughts of surrendering giving up.

But, things happen for a reason,  I know if I survive this point in my life, surely I will learn something. That I should learn to appreciate and just allow God to move the pieces in my life and being confident that he will carry it all for my welfare.

There are things certainly beyond my control and I thank God for giving me the strength to survive and to pass with His guidance for I know He will indeed fulfill His promises and He will never leave me through thick and thin. All I have to do is cling unto Him, seek His word daily and apply what I have learned not just head knowledge. Its easier said than done, but I acknowledge that apart from Him I can do nothing. I depend all to God and His power that is at work within me.

So when tough times comes, its where God's power is displayed.

I guess im back to blogging :)

Ive been very busy these days.
And guess what? Ive been busy with twitter, linforums and basketball.
It ended the year 2014 and I started the year 2015 with a BANG!
I got addicted to it and found no time to blog, and just now, I read the previous posts and touched me deeply and now for a moment, a snap of a second, a change of heart, an emotional awakening,

I WILL BLOG FOR REAL!

And when I say, blog for real, I know I have to make it happen. Wow, thats going to be a lot of pressure on me but, I have to at least give myself a chance to blog even just one post per week. Hmmm, I think its something I can maintain, considering that I can make  daily posts in facebook.

And, at this point, I might be able to post more than once a week. Wow! And I know you might want to ask why? Well, Im emotionally down at this minute, right at this time. NOW, here! Just got scolded by an irate subscriber, I know it was my fault. Thats when joy in serving seems to fade away, and something thats pulling me down. I claim to be a Christian but why do I act like this. I easily get hurt, I answer back and Im being arrogant.

Just Jlin

     Im Jeremy Lin fan. Im not really happy with the way he is treated in LAkers with coach Byron Scott. When he performs in a certian game for sure the next games will be bad news for Jeremy. I dont know, as if he is punished for playing well.

     I visit the site  everday and exchange thoughts and ideas  with Jemremy Lin fans and also at times find myself defending Lin and fighting with those who talk against our man Jlin.

     Evenso, I continue to support him and will continue to do so with the way he is treated. Hope he'll be traded to some team like Knicks. There are rumors about trade to other teams and its I will have to be patient till the middle of february 2015. Just Jlin.

And i'm gonna start it today.

Isaiah 60:10-12

10 “Foreigners will rebuild your walls,
    and their kings will serve you.
Though in anger I struck you,
    in favor I will show you compassion.
11 Your gates will always stand open,
    they will never be shut, day or night,
so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations—
    their kings led in triumphal procession.
12 For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish;
    it will be utterly ruined.
