Thankful.

There are so many things to be thankful about in my life. And the most obvious one is my life itself. The moment I wake up in the morning, the air that I breathe, are the things that made me realize that there's another day for me to live in, an opportunity for me to learn something new. I'm just really thankful about what's happening with me right now. I've been privileged to have so many things, not only just with material blessings, but also with people around me, my friends, my colleagues, my schoolmates, my relatives, my parents and most of all, our Father who is the author of everything in our lives.

Blessing for me is something that would not only make you feel comfortable, and that everything is cool, but with the struggles I've been through in life, it made me realized one thing, it shaped and helped me of becoming who I am right now. One thing I've also learned from what I've been through is that it is also important to set your goals for your future. Your plans would help you keep track of what you could become in the future. Well, of course, it has to be something in line with God's will for you. It may somehow made you think that it would be difficult to know what His will is for you. And with that being said, I've become more prayerful, especially on my trying times. I've dealt with so many things that got me almost discouraged to move forward. But that didn't stop me from dreaming and from aiming. I've learned how to believe more on myself and to always believe and remain positive whenever the going gets tough.

Well, what motivated me the most are the people who greatly influenced me, people who are called to do great things, who will never stop dreaming for the future. And it was the church who always inspire me to give my very best in everything I do. I am always moved by this quote by William Carey, “Expect great things from God, attempt great things for God.” And that's what keeps me moving. To give my best for His glory.

And that was all I just wanted to share. I hope I have inspired you guys once again. It's been a long time that I haven't shared anything about me lately, but here it is. Friends, just do bear in mind that blessings are not only just things that would make you feel good but also, with things that would really make you tough as well. Face all the challenges and be courageous enough to claim things in victory. I began to embrace hardships, for it made me more stronger compare to who I am before. Afraid. Anxious. Discourage. But not anymore. And I always see to it that He is in the center of my life, for I know God's will is always the best. So make it a habit as well to dream more on your future. Dream BIG. For we serve a great God. So attempt great things from Him. To those who had time to read this, thanks. And may He bless you more in everything you do.

The prayer of the gimper named JABEZ (read 1 Chronicles 4:9-10)

Hey guys! Thanks you so much for reading this post that I have just recently posted. I would really appreciate if you'll leave some comments. Thanks. I know, for some of you, or most of the Christians are familiar with this man named Jabez. And He's a gimper. What do we mean by gimper anyway? A gimper according to Seume was someone who always does a little more than what's required or expected. Are we like that? Do we always do the extra mile in everything we do? Or just do things plain and simple. And then that's the end of it? Our mind is always preoccupied on reaching success. But in the life of this man named Jabez. He did something in life that is really extraordinary that made God answer his prayer. If we will try to look back in the history, names does have its own meaning. And in that time where names are meaningful which greatly reflects who you are. (as what they used to say) The name Jabez, means "pain." Now, what are you thinking of right now?...

The book called.. THE SECRET

I wonder why I have this book. In the first place, it wasn't mine. I only borrowed it from a friend of mine who is also interested on reading the book. Actually, the manner that I had when I borrowed the book isn't that really okay. But because of the kindness that my friend had shown to me, I took advantage of it. Haha! I really forced her to lend me the book even if she wasn't yet finished reading it. But what I'm wondering is that, why am I so excited to read this book even if I had no idea at all what the book is all about. Is it because of the title of book that gives me an impression that indeed it was really an interesting book to read at. The book was called THE SECRET. The first time I glanced the book, it was like a tickle of mystery that I felt. Then, right at the moment when the book was introduced to me, I just borrowed it. And this friend of mine agreed. The first time I read the book, I thought that there is nothing wrong with it, but soon as I dig deep i...

GLOBAL VILLAGE

What comes first into your mind when you hear something about GLOBAL VILLAGE? I know this may sound new to you for those who's unfamiliar. But let the Merriam-Webster dictionary define Global Village. Global Village - the world viewed as a community in which distance and isolation have been dramatically reduced by electronic media (as television and the Internet). And for other definition, Global Village means, it's the entire world and its inhabitants. Now, why do I come up with this kind of topic. What's the connection of this compound word in our lives as a Filipino individual? Read on to find out. Very interesting. We have just recently celebrated our church's 25th Anniversary. And coincidently, that was the theme of our church anniversary. It was quite very interesting because Global Village really is a technical term for this digital world. But if we will try to look it in another perspective, in a basic understanding, look at it literally. GLOBAL.. and then VILLA...
