I miss my father...
Hmmm., teary eyed as I write these thoughts from the heart, trying to fight back the tears from falling, looking up just to deny gravity from winning and feeling the tears from my eyes. A discussion by a friend brought back memories, lovely sweet memories with my father. and now gravity won, im crying. Just trying not to cry too much, im in the office and people might wonder this sudden dramatic scene they are witnessing.
Well, hmmm, tears again. Please, stop from falling, I guess I cant seem to stop them, its as if they have minds of their own, i told them to stop, but they jsut want to get out from my eyes and shout its freedom day. I know its embarassing but, I can manage to wipe them as quickly as I could.
Father died 14 years ago, just miss him, envy those kids who are walking happily with their fathers. Im just glad I still have a heavenly father who knows all I have deep inside of me.
I miss you PAPA.

Sharing .... i leanred something...
If you're not married yet, share this with a friend. If you are married,share it with your spouse or other married couples and reflect on it. An African proverb states, "Before you get married, keep both eyes open, and after you marry, close one eye."
Before you get involved and make a commitment to someone, don't let lust,desperation, immaturity, ignorance, pressure from others or a low self-esteem, make you blind to warning signs. Keep your eyes open, and don't fool yourself that you can change someone or that what you see as faults aren't really important.
Once you decide to commit to someone, over time his or her flaws, vulnerabilities, pet peeves, and differences will become more obvious. If you love your mate and want the relationship to grow and evolve, you've got to learn to close one eye and not let every little thing bother you. You and your mate have many different expectations, emotional needs, values, dreams, weaknesses, and strengths. You are two unique individual children of God who have decided to share a life together.
Neither of you are perfect, but are you perfect for each other? Do you bring out the best in each other? Do you compliment and compromise with each other, or do you compete, compare, and control? What do you bring to the relationship? Do you bring past relationships, past hurt, past mistrust, past pain? You can't take someone to the altar to alter him or her. You can't make someone love you or make someone stay.
If you develop self-esteem, spiritual discernment, and "a life", you won't find yourself making someone else responsible for your happiness or responsible for your pain.
Manipulation, control, jealousy, neediness, and selfishness are not the ingredients of a thriving, healthy, loving and lasting relationship.
Seeking status, sex, wealth, and security are the wrong reasons to be in a relationship. What keeps a relationship strong?
Communication, intimacy, trust, a sense of umor, sharing household tasks, some getaway time without business or children and daily xchanges (a meal, shared activity, a hug, a call, a touch, a note).
Leave a nice message on the voicemail or send a nice email. Sharing common goals and interests. Growth is important. Grow together, not away from each other, giving each other space to grow without feeling insecure. Allow your mate to have outside interest. You can't always be together. Give each other a sense of belonging and assurances of commitment. Don't try to control one another. Learn each other's family situation. Respect his or her parents regardless.
Don't put pressure on each other for material goods. Remember for richer or for poorer. If these qualities are missing, the relationship will erode as resentment, withdrawal, abuse, neglect, dishonesty, and pain replace the passion.
The difference between 'UNiTED' and 'UNTiED' is where you put the i.

Letting Go
by TD Jakes
There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead.
You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have - He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it.
Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!!
If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to ..LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to past hurts and pains .. LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth... LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you ... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge .. LET IT GO!!! If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction ... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents . LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude... LET IT GO!!! If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better... LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him... LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship. ... LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves.. LET IT GO!!! If you're feeling depressed and stressed .... LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to... LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for you!!! LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then LET IT GO!!!

Ten Commandments of Peace of Mind
1. Do Not Interfere In Others' Business Unless Asked.
Most of us create our own problems by interfering too often in others'
affairs. We do so because somehow we have convinced ourselves that our
way is the best way, our logic is the perfect logic and those who do not
conform to our thinking must be criticized and steered to the right
direction, our direction. This thinking denies the existence of
individuality and consequently the existence of God. God has created
each one of us in a unique way. No two human beings can think or act in
exactly the same way. All men or women act the way they do because God
within them prompts them that way. There is God to look after
everything. Why are you bothered? Mind your own business and you will
keep Your peace.
2. Forgive And Forget
This is the most powerful aid to peace of mind. We often develop ill
feelings inside our heart for the person who insults us or harms us. We
nurture grievances. This in turn results in loss of sleep, development
of stomach ulcers, and high blood pressure. This insult or injury was
done once, but nourishing of grievance goes on forever by constantly
remembering it. Get over this bad habit. Believe in the justice of God
and the doctrine of Karma. Let Him judge the act of the one who insulted
you. Life is too short to waste in such trifles. Forgive, Forget, and
march on. Love flourishes in giving and forgiving.
3. Do Not Crave For Recognition.
This world is full of selfish people. They seldom praise anybody
without selfish motives. They may praise you today because you are in
power, but no sooner than you are powerless, they will forget your
achievement and will start finding faults in you. Why do you wish to
kill yourself in striving for their recognition? Their recognition is
not worth the aggravation. Do your duties ethically and sincerely and
leave the rest to God.
4 . Do Not Be Jealous.
We al l have experienced how jealousy can disturb our peace of mind. You
know that you work harder than your colleagues in the office, but
sometimes they get promotions; you do not. You started a business
sever al years ago, but you are not as successful as your neighbor whose
business is only one year old. There are sever al examples like these in
everyday life. Should you be jealous? No. Remember everybody's life is
shaped by his or her previous Karma, which has now become his destiny.
If you are destined to be rich, nothing in the world can stop you. If
you are not so destined, no one can help you either. Nothing will be
gained by blaming others for your misfortune. Jealousy will not get you
anywhere; it will only take away your peace of mind.
5. Change Yourself According To The Environment.
If you try to change the environment single-handedly, the chances are
you will fail. Instead, change yourself to suit y our environment. As
you do this, even the environment, which has been unfriendly to you,
will mysteriously change and seem congenial and harmonious.
6. Endure What Cannot Be Cured.
This is the best way to turn a disadvantage into an advantage Everyday
we face numerous inconveniences, ailments, irritations, and accidents
that are beyond our control. If we cannot control them or change them,
we must learn to put up with these things. We must learn to endure them
cheerfully thinking, "God wills it so, so be it." God's plan is beyond
our comprehension. Believe in it and you will gain in terms of patience,
inner strength and will power.
7. Do Not Bite Off More Than You Can Chew.
This maxim needs to be remembered constantly. We often tend to take more
responsibilities than we are capable of carrying out. This is done to
satisfy our ego. Know your limitations. Why take on addition al loads
that may create more worries? You cannot gain peace of mind by expanding
your extern al activities. Reduce your material engagements and spend
time in prayer, introspection and meditation. This will reduce those
thoughts in your mind that make you restless. Uncluttered mind will
produce greater peace of mind.
8. Meditate Regularly.
Meditation c al ms the mind and gets rid of disturbing thoughts. This is
the highest state of peace of mind. Try and experience it yourself. If
you meditate earnestly for h al f an hour everyday, your mind will tend to
become peaceful during the remaining twenty-three and h al f-hours. Your
mind will not be easily disturbed as it was before. You would benefit by
gradually increasing the period of daily mediation. You may think that
this will interfere with your daily work. On the contrary, this will
increase your efficiency and you will be able to produce better results
in less time.
9. Never Leave The Mind Vacant.
An empty mind is the devil's workshop. All evil actions start in the
vacant mind. Keep your mind occupied in something positive, something
worthwhile. Actively follow a hobby. Do something that holds your
interest. You must decide what you value more: money or peace of mind.
Your hobby, like social work or temple work, may not al ways earn you
more money, but you will have a sense of fulfillment and achievement.
Even when you are resting physically, occupy yourself in he al thy reading
or mental chanting of God's name.
10. Do Not Procrastinate And Never Regret.
Do not waste time in protracted wondering "Should I or shouldn't I?"
Days, weeks, months, and years may be wasted in that futile mental
debating. You can never plan enough because you can never anticipate al l
future happenings. Always remember, God has His own plan, too for you.
Value your time and do the things that need to be done. It does not
matter if you fail the first time. You can learn from your mistakes and
succeed the next time. Sitting back and worrying will lead to nothing.
Learn from your mistakes, but do not brood over the past. DO NOT REGRET.
Whatever happened was destined to happen only that way. Take it as the
Will of God. You do not have the power to alter the course of God's
Will. Why cry over spilt milk?
Most of us create our own problems by interfering too often in others'
affairs. We do so because somehow we have convinced ourselves that our
way is the best way, our logic is the perfect logic and those who do not
conform to our thinking must be criticized and steered to the right

Joyful Living....
Sharing this what I read from our daily bread.
Our search for joy takes us many different directions—dream holidays, shopping, food, clothes, friends, cars—the list is almost endless.
My guess is that if you perked up at the mention of shopping, holidays, or cars, you might have felt a twinge of guilt. We often view the joy of temporal things as less than spiritual and show our discomfort by apologizing for nice things: “I wouldn’t have bought this, but someone gave me a wonderful deal.” As if real Christians never eat quiche, drive cool cars, or wear designer clothes!
No doubt God’s greatest gift to us is our relationship with His Son Jesus. It’s a gift beyond comparison. Jesus promised that when we abide in Him we will experience the fulfillment of His joy (John 15:11), and without that kind of deep, abiding joy the rest of life is mundane at best.
But Scripture also casts the joy of the Lord in terms of temporal things. The enjoyment of “things” can be a positive spiritual experience. When we recognize that He “gives us richly all things to enjoy” (1 Tim. 6:17) and that “every good gift . . . is from above” (James 1:17), our hearts should be full of thankfulness and praise. This, in and of itself, is an act of worship! Enjoy the Giver and the gifts. — Joe Stowell

Apple for dinner...
Its always a struggle, a daily struggle and I hate it.
I easily get upset.
And I just dont like it when I get upset. So many things seems to come out from my mind and I ca feel my rebelious mind whispering to me, encouraging me to be upset some more.
Just tonight, my housemates forgot to send my dinner (we cook our food in turns, the office is just walking distance from our boarding house,most of the time they send my breakfast or dinner) and of course I felt neglected and self pity went in coupled with so many thougts, I know im over reacting, but I guess I was too excited to think whats for dinner and eneded up having nothing. Or maybe because I was too hungry or I pitied myself for having an apple for dinner.
Hmmmm maybe they have their reasons, but I just hope I can let go of these negative felings and these negative thoughts from coming to life.
I guess I was forced to go on a apple diet for dinner tonight, well, on the other hand I can still consideer myself lucky, many people still dont have something to eat, im just one of the lucky one who can still enjoy an apple for dinner.

Another day....
They say I have the worst job in the world, customer service officer. Getting paid to get yelled at, shouted at and sometimes insulted for not being able to meet subscribers desires. Well, no matter how I look at each side of the coin, they are always right, even if they sound so wrong they are always right and they deserve the best. But there are so many things beyond our control and its a matter of being able to play and survive this world of complaints.
I passed the day without a subscriber getting mad at me. Its unusual but im just glad. Its always a daily prayer that I make it through the day with flying colors and true enough another answered prayer. I experimented on being childish with subscribers and they respond in such a manner, and try to be nice as much as possible no matter how maldita and demanding they seem to be, I pretend not to get impatient and impolite to them even when they are shouting and seems to get the earwax from my ears.
I survive the day with just a smile and laugh at their demands. Most often I just joke about it and laugh. Its just a matter of coping. No matter how I try there are things that is beyond my control and God is in control over all the things around.

I experimented on being childish with subscribers and they respond in such a manner, and try to be nice as much as possible no matter how maldita and demanding they seem to be, I pretend not to get impatient and impolite to them even when they are shouting and seems to get the earwax from my ears.
I survive the day with just a smile and laugh at their demands. Most often I just joke about it and laugh. Its just a matter of coping. No matter how I try there are things that is beyond my control and God is in control over all the things around.
I Want to Grow Old with you....
What a great day! Started with a great shower humming Adam Sandler's Grow old with you and just like yesterday I ended up singing The Prayer song by Charotte Church and Josh Groban the whole day. I love this song and deeply touched by the lyrics. Sharing this with you and hope you have that someone you want to grow old with. Me, im still praying that it would be him.
I wanna make you smile,
Whenever you're sad,
Carry you around
When you're arthritis is bad
All I wanna do, Is grow old with you
I'll get you're medicine,
When you're tummy aches,
Build you a fire If the furnace breaks
Oh, it could be so nice,
Growin' old with you
I'll miss you, Kiss you,
Give you my coat
When you are cold
I'll need you, Feed you,
Even let you holdThe remote control
So let me do the dishes
In our kitchen sink,
Put you to bed When you've had
Too much to drink
Ohhhh, I could be the man,
Who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you.
I wanna grow old with you.
A to Z of Stress Management
Always take time for yourself, at least 30 minutes a day.
Be aware of your own stress meter: Know when to step back and cool down.
Concentrate on controlling your own situation, without controlling everybody else.
Daily exercise will burn off the stress chemicals.
Eat lots of fresh fruit, veggies, bread and water, give your body the best to perform better. Forgive others, don't hold grudges and be tolerant -- not everyone is as capable as you.
Gain perspective on things, how important is the issue?
Hugs, kisses and laughter: Have fun and share your feelings with others.
Identify stressors in advance and plan to deal with them better next time.
Judge your own performance realistically; don't set goals beyond your own reach.
Keep a positive attitude, your outlook will influence outcomes and the way others treat you. Limit alcohol, drugs and other stimulants, they affect your perception and behaviour.
Manage money well, seek advice and save at least 10 per cent of what you earn.
No is a word you need to learn to use, wherever necessary, without feeling guilty
Outdoor activities by yourself, or with friends and family, can be a great fun and a way to relax. Play your favourite music rather than watching television.
Quit smoking: It is stressing your body daily, not to mention about its killing effects. Relationships: Nurture and enjoy them, learn to LISTEN MORE AND TALK LESS.
Sleep well, with a firm mattress & a supportive pillow; don't overheat yourself and allow plenty of ventilation.
Treat YOURSELF once a week with a massage, dinner out, a movie etc.; Moderation is the key. Understand things from the other person's point of view.
Verify information from the source before exploding.
Worry less, it really does not get things completed better or quicker.
Xpress: Make a regular retreat to your favourite space, make holidays part of your yearly plan and budget.
Yearly goal setting; Plan what you want to achieve based on your priorities in your career, relationships, etc.
Zest for life: Each day is a gift; Smile and be thankful that you are part of the bigger picture

Let not your hearts be troubled...
Let not your hearts be troubled!
PEACE OF MIND If you were to ask your neighbor, "What would give you peace of mind?" he might tell you, "A vacation in Bermuda!" or "An extra hundred grand would give me peace!", or "A new Ferrari would make me content!" But going places – and getting stuff – is usually a temporary solution ... Peace of mind rarely comes from getting more stuff. Getting more stuff usually leads to wanting even more stuff! Peace of mind starts with being grateful for what we have right now.
GRATITUDE is POWER When we are thankful for what we have - for the friends we have, and for the things we've got, we attract more good people and good things! People who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck. Complainers attract more things to complain about! It is a law of life. It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you. We get more of what we dwell upon. That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson .. "Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way." It's practical advice. Every time you say a silent "thank you" you become more peaceful – and more power. ...............Keep Sharing:-)................

An Achiever's Prayer.....
Good morning Heavenly Father! Iam very busy today, but I knew I needed to stop and talk to You before I rush into my day. Forgive me for being to aggresive at times and rushing into projects that I never brought to You in prayer. I have done so many things and made some wrong decisions, yet You have kept Your hand upon me. Im so thankful for that. NOw purge my new agenda today. Take out of my life those who break my focus off Your assignments. Bring into my life those who grow Your dream within me. Protect me. Talk to me. Keep Your angels around me every hour of this day. I will speak Your name with joy and thanksgiving . I will celebrate Your presence and tell others of Your laws. I will embrace Your wisdom every single day of my life. In Jesus name, Amen

Rubik's cube mania...
Well, im not really one of the nerds enjoying the mystery of the rubik's cube but I want to learn to solve it so I bought one for myself since almost all in our department enjoy solving it using the algorthm found in the internet.
Actually, the IT people specifically Arthur started it and now it circulated like a virus that has spread to our department. I never tried solving a rubik's cube before even when I was young I never imagine myself be able to solve one.
I bought one and patiently try to understand the algorithm and maybe someday, someday be able to solve it.
How about you my friends have you solved a rubik's cube before? Theres also another rubik's cube and its in circular form, maybe more difficult than the square one.

Dance With my father again
I got melancholic this morning again because of such a lovely song for dead fathers. I cried so hard and listened to the song many times and I remember my father. It broke my heart, it was a long time when we last danced and I know we will never have that chance again.
Im sharing the lyrics of the song that pricked my heart:
"Any man can be a Father,
but it takes a special person to be called Dad."
Dance With My Father
by Luther Vandross
Back when I was a child,
before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
and dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around 'til I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance,
another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way, I would run from her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance,
One final step,one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
But dear Lord she's dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep
and this is all I ever dream
Listen to this song its really nice!
Heres the link of the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvW6nuQ2B0s

Prayer for Healing
Lord Jesus, you came to heal our wounded and troubled hearts.
I beg you to heal the torments that cause anxiety in my heart;
I beg you, in a particular way, to heal all who are the cause of sin.
I beg you to come into my life and heal me of the
psychological harms that struck me in my early years
and from the injuries that they caused throughout my life.
Lord Jesus, you know my burdens.
I lay them all on your Good Shepherd's Heart.
I beseech you--by the merits of the great,
open wound in your heart--to heal the small wounds that are in mine.
Heal the pain of my memories,
so that nothing that has happened to me
will cause me to remain in pain and anguish, filled with anxiety.
Heal, O Lord, all those wounds that have been the cause
of all the evil that is rooted in my life.
I want to forgive all those who have offended me.
Look to those inner sores that make me unable to forgive.
You who came to forgive the afflicted of heart,
please, heal my own heart.
Heal, my Lord Jesus, those intimate wounds
that cause me physical illness.
I offer you my heart.
Accept it, Lord, purify it and give me the sentiments of your Divine Heart.
Help me to be meek and humble.
Heal me, O Lord, from the pain caused by the death of my loved ones,
which is oppressing me.
Grant me to regain peace and joy in the knowledge
that you are the Resurrection and the Life.
Make me an authentic witness to your Resurrection,
your victory over sin and death,
your living presence among us.
Amen.

Do we focus only on the traits that make our enemies so unlikable?
Its a one liner question that struck me today and hit me on the face.Most of the time its what we always think about our enemies or the people who hurt us, we think and just see the negative side of their being. Its a realization I have today that even though these people may hurt us but they also have good points and they also have positive attitudes. Its hard to see the positive qualities of people who we have decided to associate with negative things. But I have tried it and have appreciated the good side despite the bad feeling. Maybe God has a way of moving in our lives that we learn from people who hurt us. Its a painful experience but its something that makes us grow and look things in a new perspective.

God said no...
God Said NO! I hope that you can get the effects on your computers! The words are great, but the movements of the faces add a lot....
I asked God to take away my habit. God said, No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up. I asked God to make my handicapped child whole. God said, No. His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience. God said, No.Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.
I asked God to give me happiness. God said, No.I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you. I asked God to spare me pain. God said, No.Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow. God said, No.You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life. God said, No. I will give you life, so that you may enj oy all things.
I asked God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me. God said...Ahhhh, finally you have the idea. THIS DAY IS YOURS DON'T THROW IT AWAY May God Bless You.

Rain rain go away, come again another day....
I have noticed that for the last days it rained every afternoon and it has limited me from doing what I like to do and going where I want to go and yesterday was the perfect afternoon to top it all. I was able to go smoothly and comfortably. I had lots of errands to do and I was glad the rain cooperated and tried to absent and did not rain yeterday which was good coz I was able to complete all the tasks and without the rain to disturb me. I love rains but I only when im at home soundly sleeping, have a a nice day to you and I just hope it wont rain this afternoon.29 April 2008
First time to snorkel....
Last April 19, 2008 saturday was by far the best summer outing i ever had. It was my first time to try snorkeling and i really enjoyed watching the corals, star fishes and all the colorful and playful fishes under the sea. It was am awesome sight and I will try to do it again if given the chance. At first I was really not confident about it since I dont know how to swim, but with the help of the instructor and my office mates I was able to face my fears and enjoyed the activity. It was great my first time to play with the creatures under water and the wonderful things that I have seen there.
Its a nice activity and I long to do it again if given the chance, we did it early in the morning and it was still very cool and the sun is still very friendly.

Myheart Prints: Struggles
Its a wonderful day, and just a perfect day to clean some old junk from my room. I cam across this cute pooh bear yellow spring notebook. My Purpose driven Life notebook, exactly 4 years ago, I had a commitment signed with Erna, Gary and Joey. We promised to finish the forty day journey but unfortunately when I checked I was only until the 37th day. I failed to finish the book and I intend to finish it this time.And four years ago I was writing about my struggles in life, my spiritual life, my daily struugles with work and life, my bad habits and so many other things. Specically, I wanted to end my not so nice way of handling my subscribers, I was so desperate to end it four years, but I'm still entangled with the webs of the lack patience to overcome it, and the lack of humility and the heart to do it. I dont know if my temper has something to do with being born on the month of February or maybe its just a matter of having this kind of attitude.......Hmmmm, how I wish I could somehow change. Lord, please remind me every that its not about me. I know the road is never easy but I put the trust in You.............

My colorful crochets
Colorful crochets that I made, just pictured them for
record sakes. I hope they are now in good hands.
My crochet bags
I made these cute crochet bags.My all time favorite is
the one with white and orange.
White Coasters
I made these white coasters last year, ordered by a friendI only have this a memory.
Heart Print: Your Word
I gave it all to You,
though it was painful,
I know You'd always be there by my side,
Its different now, I didnt listened before,
and now Your word is so strong,
I cant help but obey.
Maybe this is the ONE TRUE LOVE,
YOU are my true love,
You knocked in my heart many times,
I didnt heard YOU,
I was busy with my found earthy love,
thought it made me complete,
but never knew all along,
that it was YOU,
it was YOU all along.
Eight years,
I never thought I could make it through,
with out the love the I have found,
But, it was YOUR WORD that was worth it all,
You gave it to me during the commitment conference,
and You made it all easy for me,
though there were tears,
but YOU wiped it all for me,
YOUR WORD comforting me,
YOUR WORD healing me,
YOUR WORD revealing to me,
and YOUR WORD showing me
the love beyond compare.
THank you dear Lord,
thank you for being so patient with me,
I am going to wait on YOU,
and YOUR will for my life.
I Want to love YOU more.....

Assurance of Forgiveness
Forgiveness means that we are not going to allow the experiences of the past to dominate our future and to prevent us from becoming all that God has planned we should become. There may well be memories we are unable to put out of mind, but we choose not to allow them to control our attitudes and behaviour in the future, even toward those who may be responsible for those memories. Two New Testament words we translate "to forgive" mean literally "to let go" and "to cancel a debt". I found that at times the phrase "I forgive you" seemed empty, so I said, "I release you. I let you go. I let go of this offence. I cancel your debt. You owe me nothing now. I renounce my desire to get even with you." That way, the imagery of this biblical language filled the word "forgiveness" with a more specific and concrete meaning.
The basis upon which all sin is forgiven is found in Matthew 26:28: " This is my blood of the covenant which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."
What must we do in order to have our sins forgiven? Answer: 1 John 1:9 " If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
The consequences of unconfessed sin:
Proverbs 28:13 He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces then finds mercy.
Psalms 66:18 If I cherished sin in my heart the Lord would have not listened.
What attitude of heart characterizes confession?
Psalm 38:18 I confess my iniquity, i am troubled by my sin. Confession as described by David Psalm 32:5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you and you did not cover up my iniquity. I said " I confess my transgressions to the Lord" and you forgave the guilt of my sin. David's prayer expectation after confessiong his sin.
Psalm 52:12 Restore to the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain.
Our attitude towards others:
Ephesians 4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgive each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Why forgiveness matters?
1. Unforgiveness will hurt no one more than myself
2. Unforgiveness will often hurt others
3. Unforgiveness may deny healing to another
4. Unforgiveness affects my relationship with God
5. Unforgiveness is readily exploited by the Evil One
6. Forgiveness demonstrates Christ's presence
7. It shows our own experience of God's forgiveness
We never touch the ocean of God's love so much as when we love our enemies.
It is a joy to accept forgiveness, but it is almost a greater joy to give forgiveness.

Recieved an empty birthday card 10 years ago....
It was one of the strangest things that I have ver expereinced 10 years ago, I recieved an empty card without anything written on it. It was a three fold colorful card, with a cute guy standing saying: may your birthday be filled with a hundred shades of happy".
It was a card that brought joy and caused confusion on my part and it was not yet solved until now, since I still didnt know who sent the card. I hope I could solve the mystery, but I guess its impossible. I just wonder why the card was sent without any information about the sender.
Have you recieved a card but didnt know who gave it? Hope we can share. have a nice day.
