looking back

When you look back and
wonder how you ever made it through the years,
you'll realize that it's

not because you've been clever
but because God has been wise;

not because you've been strong
but because God has been mighty;

not because you've been consistent
but because God has been faithful.

May God bless you today and forever!

When I say I'm a Christian,
I'm not saying I am perfect...

I'm admitting I'm wretched
that's why I need a Savior.

I'm shouting I'm lost
that's why I need a Guide.

I'm claiming I'm weak
that's why I need a God!

"Humble yourself before the LORD,
and HE will lift you up."
[James 4:10]


Past
is an
Experience.

Present
is an
Experiment.

Future
is an
Expectation.

So don't forget to...

use your
Experience

in your
Experiment

to meet your
Expectation.

"The season of LENT reminds us
that the life we have and
the material possessions we hold
are simply lent to us.
We are but pilgrims here on earth
who will pass by only once.
We bring nothing when we die
but we can leave behind
the love we've shared,
the hope we have given,
and the goodness we have done."

"Why did Christ choose to live in your heart?

He could have chosen
your brain, your eye or your mouth.
He could have chosen another part of you.
But He chose your heart.
Because in the HEART,
you Love...
you Choose...
you Decide...
and it's the only part of you that can grow
big enough to contain the majesty of GOD!

Man's heart is
God's place on earth.

Let Him dwell in it forever!"

on being hurt

"Everything that God allows us is with a purpose.
He even uses
the greatest error and the deepest hurt
to mold us into a
person of worth and value."

>> A text message from my friend -- Med. <<



"Keep in mind that we should always thank those who hurt us,
especially those who did so bad,
we are forced to transform.
They risk the eternal verdict of going to hell
just to make us better than who we are..."

>> This one is from my friend -- Tim. <<

Last February 14, I got several wonderful and heartwarming valentines day messages from my friends. So I thought of sharing this here in my blog.

This one is from Med...


"Valentine's Day maybe for lovers
but it's also a time when I think of the dear people
who have made life beautiful and meaningful
and so I want to thank you for all of the moments
we have shared, for listening, talking, laughing, inspiring and caring.
You always give me something to look forward to;
and every time I hear from you,
the warmth you lend me helps me get through the day.
Though I don't often tell you how much our friendship means to me,
I hope you know how much I appreciate you.
Happy Valentine!"


And this is from Amee...

"Words to live by:

Just say what you mean
and mean what you say.

Don't expect someone to read your mind
and don't play games with heads or hearts.

Don't tell half truths and
expect trust when the full truth comes out.
Half truths are no better than lies.

Don't be cold to someone you care about.
Indifference hurts more than angry words.

They say actions speak louder than words
but sometimes it's better to have both.

Happy Valentines Day!"

Here's another one from Med...

"What is LOVE?
Writers and poets explained it by Romeo and Juliet or Florante at Laura.
Picaso and Gothe showed it with paintings, frescos and abstracts.
Lovers expressed it through flowers, poems, letters, gifts and songs.

Yet no one else but Jesus Christ
our Redeemer, Savior and "Lover of our Souls"
truly suffered, gave His life, then triumph over death
to prove what LOVE is and what LOVING truly means.
May TRUE LOVE reigns in our lives always and forever."

on being robbed

A nice story to reflect on this day...

A man experienced being robbed by thieves.
In his diary, he wrote:


"Let me be thankful first,
because they took my purse and not my life;


second, although they took my all,
it was not much especially my faith;


and third, because it was I who was robbed,
not I who robbed.


Let us see God's purpose behind every trial
and the good things behind the worst situation."
