Had another opportunity to play my song. We were at Gospel Jam last Sunday and there I was, blessed again by someone's testimony. I'll write more about this later. In the meantime, take a look at some of our photos from the event. God Bless my readers. :)

I want to thank the Lord because the CJ Corona Trial is now over. Seeing God's promises to the Philippines come to pass just brings tears to my eyes. Hehe. May He continue to let His glory shine and be seen in this country's government/leadership. :D

Anyhow, this reminds me of this one thought I had in mind yesterday. I know that many Filipinos want to see CHANGE in this country. But the problem is, there aren't too many who are willing to go to great lengths and become 'exacters' (if I may use that made-up term to get my point across) of change. Before we go into the streets to raise our placards in protest, which I think isn't really necessary, why don't we start small. We can start by not turning this nation into a humongous trash can. 

On regular good-weather days, I usually take a jeep to get home. The weather wasn't throwing tantrums yesterday so I decided to get on one. I sat right next to a guy who was with his friends. They were eating. One of them was eating an ice cream. She was almost at the tip of the cone when *gasps*, she suddenly threw it out the window. Just.like.that. No sign of remorse nor pain in her eyes. :p 

She's just one of the MANY people here who throw their trash everywhere. And when I say everywhere, it's literally everywhere (parks, buses, sidewalks, waiting sheds, etc.). They leave garbage even in elevators would you believe?! I'm afraid that one day, we're all never going to walk in the streets without slipping on a banana peel, which is supposed to be just proverbial. SIGH! 

How hard is it to just keep a small candy wrapper in your pocket or in your bag (it isn't going to be any cleaner than your kitchen sink, FYI) while the trash can is on its break?! SIGH. Kung nakakapagsalita lang ang kalsada at mga estero pag may baha na, sasabihin nila siguro, "O ano ka ngayon? Binabaha ka tuloy sa katatapon mo kahit saan!" I mean, wouldn't it be nice to add the word clean in our slogan?

It's asking you...

Why not throw it in?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

These photos were taken last month at Starbucks Taytay. This is our very first Young Adults' Fellowship. Though this isn't a big group, I know that God will use each of us in the field we are being called in...THE MARKET PLACE. We're praying for more people, not only to become part of this ministry, but to get to know Jesus and be saved. 

I'm not against any person here but against the devil and his works. I'm choosing to take a stand, thus the statement above. Anything that does not please my God and what opposes Him in every way abhors me. I am not gonna say that 'I don't care what people might think or say of this post', I'm doing this because I care and Jesus does too. I am deeply opposed to this not because my dear friends are but I know the facts and knowing equates to wisdom so I won't be deceived. Matthew 24:4 says,  Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you."

Let's all pray for the nations because the Day is drawing near. Let's be faithful for 'this generation will certainly not pass until all these things [the signs of the end of age] have happened (Matthew 24:34). The only way to know the truth is if you are in Christ, it is only through Him that we get saved, by faith in Him and not by works.

Pray like never before and without ceasing. Be wise!

I've been quite busy of late. Busy finding something new. Hehe. I honestly have to say that I've never been this tired before. If only I could stop the world from revolving just this once, I'd do it for Superman's sake. 

I spoke to someone a few days ago about that person's struggles. It isn't easy to help someone who doesn't want to be helped you know. It took all the magic beans I have to be able to understand what's going on in his mind. I was supposed to make him feel encouraged but it was to no avail. If not for the hope I know there is in letting the Lord have His own way, I would've given up on being the 'supposed motivator'. It makes you wanna ask why people ignore the obvious solution (I'm talking about Christians here) and turn your back on Him whose power created the world without wasting a breath. It's always because SELF is in control. Oh what a great enemy! If the cost of following Jesus is worth a penny, many might have followed or could still be following but the cost is greater than the hair on our heads. We have to put down a lot to fit into the narrow gate and it gets tougher when you have to listen to that Voice 'cause it's never gonna be loud, it's never gonna be shouting in the streets...it's small and still. If you're thinking of giving up or quitting, you also have to think of what you're not willing to quit or give up on because it's our own needs, wants, hopes that always get in the way. All we need is His healing and grace to be able to go back to His loving arms.

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands

                                                                                                          

Thank You Lord! If it weren't for Your love and faithfulness,

I wouldn't be alive today. 

For those of you who keep asking and might ask...

You won't find me on Facebook.

I'm maintaining an account on there but it's not mine, it's our church's. I'm not even it's sole admin 'cause someone else logs in there and does some of the updating and tweaking. So here comes the regal question: Why?

Okay, I'm not trying to throw an anti-social fit here nor am I trying to be an enemy of that networking site. I don't have anything against it. In fact, I kinda like the idea of being able to share what we do for Jesus on there. I just don't feel like 'owning' a Facebook account and I don't wanna create one just because I need to be in the loop. I do want to see my old friends there but I don't know, nothing, as of the moment, will ever change my mind. Twitter is also cool but my thoughts aren't limited to 140 characters. If I wanna say something really cool or if I wanna share my wonderful ruminations (hehe) then I'd just type them all in here. 

To my dear friends: I'm sorry. :(
