The Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian

Prince Caspian is a part of the Narnia series which was written by C.S. Lewis. The story is still focused on Narnia, of course, that was back then ravaged by the Telmarines. When Prince Caspian the 9th ruled over, his uncle Miraz wants to dethrone him and planned to kill him. That's why he went away and look for some place to seek help with. Caspian was then found by the 2 dwarfs and a talking badger. The Narnian creatures discovered that the prince has the magical horn which was said that it has a magical power. When the prince was in danger, he blew the horn and that made the Pevensies back again in the world of Narnia to help gain Narnia's freedom back. The story tells us something about the New Age, that's why if you'll notice on their movie posters, it says, "The New Age Has Begun." Indeed, it really is. C.S. Lewis was really very brilliant, because his writings were really timely. No wonder why he is one of my favorite authors. The movie is somehow viole...

What's next?

Sometimes I was wondering, why do we have to be busy on doing a lot of things. And what's gonna be like when you're doing nothing. For me, I find this year a very challenging one, why? For many reasons, it seems like, it so difficult for me to balance things out. *sighs* I think I really need to settle myself into a moment of just spending time with myself first, so that I could find time to contemplate and plan on my next journey in life. Because I am not only meant for what I am right now. I know, there's more to life that what meets the eye. So, I really need to catch up. First, I was planning to go back to school. Whatever it is, EDUCATION is still the key for me to pursue my goals in life, more than what others could expect to achieve. If they think that education is just something that will give the title for being a candidate of having a good job, well these days, I think so it's a YES. Being competitive is something that you have to prepare yourself with, and ed...

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?...

What my New Year is all bout Ü

New Year. New haircut. New cellphone. New MP3. Haha. And the most important thing of all, New ME. It's been quite a while since the last time I updated my blog. 'Cause I've been very busy these past few weeks due to the demands of the clients at work. Well, simply because of the holiday season. I am so thankful for everything, especially this job, my ever supportive parents, friends and churchmates. I love 'em all. And most of all, my one and only Savior, Jesus Christ. Love him so much! :) I've noticed that prayer really is such a very powerful tool for a change. For my belief is that, we can't change ourselves. But only Him alone could possibly transform us into something extraordinary. We can plot the direction of our lives but God has the map for us to determine the right way that we should go. For it says on the scripture that we should no longer be conformed into the pattern of this world, but we should allow ourselves to be transformed to the renewing of o...

No God or Know God?

I checked my email today and I find this one topic very interesting. So I decided to have this posted on my blog. It tells us something about how we will be firm in our stand as a believer of Christ to those who did not believe Him. And the most exciting part of this conversation between the professor and the student is the logic behind their reasonings that challenged them both. But they both end up into something that not only the mind could sense but also by their heart and soul and most of all their FAITH. So, here it goes. An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem Science has with God, The Almighty. He asks one of his new students to stand and..... Prof: So you believe in God? Student: Absolutely, sir. Prof: Is God good? Student: Sure. Prof: Is God all-powerful? Student: Yes. Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm? (...

CHRISTmas!

But, what do we actually mean by CHRISTmas? Well, most of us neglect the true essence of the season. Some of us say, JESUS is the reason for this Season, but we don't really understand why HE was born. Let me tell you something.. Simply, "JESUS is the expression of God's love." He gave His one & only begotten SON just to save the whole world from SIN. That's plain simple, right? But some or even most of us thought of Christmas as an occasion or an event to celebrate with our loved ones. Nothing is wrong with that, but we tend to forget that it's JESUS' birthday, not everybody elses. Now, let me ask you this, what do used to see during Christmas? Our beloved gift giver Santa Claus together with his reindeers? The big Christmas trees in our homes? The twinkling Christmas lights on our windows? Or the gifts that we give to everyone? Well, I have nothing against on all of those things, it's just that, we do sometimes neglect that Christmas is about the...

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...
