My Dream's Frame

As promised on my previous posts, I'll be posting my "dream frame". As of now it is quite bare as if there's no beauty on it. But in a few days from now, I'll be putting my dreams on this frame, with greater anticipation and expectation of faith that in God's perfect time, these dreams will come to materialize.

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the for will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." Matthew 7:7-8

Build Your Dreams

One of this days before the end of this month I'm gonna be posting my "dreams frame". I call it as such since I will be posting the pictures of what I'm dreaming of. I'm so excited about it and I asked God to bless me so that my dreams will be fulfilled. I'll be posting the picture my frame on my next post.

What a Wonderful Day!

I wake up early today at exactly 6:00AM. Even though I felt like as if I want to be back on my bed to sleep, I dragged myself down to the kitchen to prepare my food. I'll just cook the rice and reheat the "menudo" which I was able to cook last night. Oh, how I wish I will always be waking up early for work. "Oh, God thank you for blessing me with a job, I know You gonna prosper me along the way and I believe in Your Word that You bless diligent hands. Thank You for inspiring me to work today".

I have reached the office at 9:03AM and thank God that I am not late since we do have a leeway of 15 minutes. I praise God for who He is in my life. He never leave me nor forsake me. It's been a habit for me in singing songs of praise while I am on travel. I really don't know why I am like that maybe it is the Lord who just instantly put the songs in my heart and the melodies starts to fly in the air. It's really a wonderful day. Thank You Lord.

Make My Heart Your Own

"in everything give thanks unto the Lord", a very popularly known Bible verse in my life that the Lord is just putting it very clearly in my heart and in my mind. I just recently experienced how hard it was when the people that surrounds you seems to be unreasonable and harsh at times. So I found myself crying under the tree, wishing that everything will turned out right. Wishing it should never happen for one good reason "I don't deserve a treatment like that." Being in that situation, how could I say "Thank You Lord for allowing these things to happen." It's really hard. I wish life would be easy, full of happiness and joy, full of victories and good memories but life is not a bed of roses. Life is mixed with joy and sadness, sorrow and happiness, victory and defeat. It all really depends on me, on how would I respond during this situation.

Will I leave my job? Will I trade my blessings? Will I be down? Will I be discouraged?

Life must go on neither should I. Just give everything unto Jesus. He is the absolute answer to all my life's questions and doubts. Lord I surrender my life to You, I recommit my heart, my hands, my whole being to You Lord. Make my heart Your own.

1st speaking engagement

I was so thankful and privileged to be invited as a guest speaker at Antipolo in one of their youth fellowship last July 6, 2008.

Though I was a little bit late, I am so thankful to God that I came just before my time. I was able to share my life's testimony and now I realized that God had allowed me to experience such challenges in my life, only to serve His purpose - that is to be an inspiration to the lives of these young people on how God had preserved my life.

Thank you Lord for trusting me to do such task for your glory. Who am I to be used as a vessel? All glory and honor belongs to You my Lord and God.

taking the step of faith

i wake up this morning @ exactly 5:45AM. Wow, I was so happy, it's Monday and I should be early or else I would be late at my work. But it's quite good to feel that the Lord reminded me to get down on my knees first before I will do any preparation. So I entered my prayer closet and was so surprised that I started to pray like this:

"Lord I thank You for today. I thank You na maraming customer ang pupunta at kakain sa aking restaurant ngayon. Thank You at hindi po kami mapapanisan ng pagkain. Thank You at mageenjoy ang aming mga customer sa kanilang mga oorderin. Lord I also thank You na marami pa rin ang pupunta sa aming white sand beach resort. Thank You na ito ay malinis at ang aking mga tauhan sa resort ay mga magagalang at mababait sa kanilang mga customers. Ganun din sa aking 1000 hectares of land producing fresh veggies and fruits. Thank You na aking mga tauhan ay mababait, they loved their job, honest and they are blessed, their family were blessed and their kids as well."

While I am whispering those very words, there is a big smile on my face. Actually, di ko pa hawak sa mga kamay ko ang mga blessings na ito from the time that I was writing this post. I believe and I call this part of my life as "putting up the step of faith". As what the Bible says "Death and life are the powers of the tongue (Prov 10:24)". So I rather choose to speak up positive words than negative, blessings than curse, victory than defeat, and courage than fear.

It's my dream, "if you have a dream, protect it. if you have a goal, go for it. be determined to become what you dreamed of." Remember, God is in charge. He is in control on everything in my life.

I am writing this post and start to believe from this day forward that these will come true.
