magnificent by hillsongs

Who compares to You?
Who set the stars in their place?
You who calmed the raging seas
That came crashing over me.

Who compares to You?
You who bring the morning light,
The hope of all the earth
Is rest assured in Your great love.

CHORUS:
You are magnificent,
Eternally wonderful, glorious.
Jesus, no one ever will compare
To You, Jesus.

Where the evening fades,
You call forth songs of joy.
As the morning wakes,
We Your children give You praise.

Jesus, no one ever will compare
To You, Jesus.
No one ever will compare
To You, Jesus.

Recollection at Mambukal

Pictures taken during our morning devotion at Mambukal Mountain Resort. A prayer retreat for Grades 4-6 with Nay BB as our Retreat Master along with Ms. Bing. Been very happy with how God works in our lives and for giving us the opportunity to see such wonderful sights.

Mambukal Mountain Resort is located at Minoyan, Murcia, Bacolod City, Negros Occidental.

taken right from my room's window which i call "to-re" cpcs compound. i love sunsets maybe because i don't get the chance to see more of sunrises for i always wake up late. hehe.. there's always this feeling of "the end" "day's end" but i don't worry because i know there will always be another one setting on that horizon again. yey!

Taken in front of CPCS, a sugarcane plantation infront of ma's school. Nice to reflect ei?

The Ruins. the place will take you back to the spanish colonization era. it has stories to tell with its breathtaking sight most especially during sunsets when it illuminates the structural remains. so surreal as if you're in another place like italy :) located at talisay city, negros island. 10 minutes away from bacolod city. although the road going there is not that good yet. the bumps you're going to get from the ride is super worth it. :)

Fuller Life's CONQUERORS along with Cabug and Mansilingan A/G is hosting this month's Youth Rally - Section A. Prayers, comrades! To God be the glory!

nice to share! :)

"When time are good - be happy,
but when times are bad, consider -
God has made the one as well as the other."

Ecc. 7:14

There are many times in my life when I would say, 'ahh... I miss the old times' but hey(!), the great book will tell us that everything, whether good or bad, is created by God. And I say, every day we are tested of our faith and most of the time, especially me, I fail. I don't profess to be a good Christian, 'cause I'm not at all good, but I'm trying to be one. It's not an easy task standing on what I believe in but by God's grace, I'm still on it. sounds goody goody?! wehehe.. God bless you!

Life is like my glass of strawberry shake! yummy!

Last month, May 2008, together with my relatives we went to Bohol via Cebu after attending my cuz's capping as she proceed in her second year, nursing course. We've toured the island for a day and we took lots of photos! whew! these are some of them..

ang tsinelas

by: http://lencabas.blogspot.com/

Tawagin mo na'kong corny, pero nung napanood
ko yung pelikula nina
Regine at Richard, eto lang
ang nasabi ko: "WISH KO LANG".

Sabi sa pelikula, ang taong para talaga sa'yo
(yung ryt one ika nga) ay
para raw TSINELAS. Di naman sinasabing
mukhang goma o balat ang hanapin
mo. Ganito kasi yan.

Maraming uri ng sapatos ang nagkalat sa
paligid - may school shoes,
rubber shoes, boots, stilettos, sandals at kung
anu-ano pa. Iba't ibang
style, iba-ibang dekorasyon. At syempre, iba-iba
din ang presyo. May
mura, may mahal. Ikaw, pag pumasok ka sa
opisina, di ba isinusuot mo ang
mamahalin mong black leather shoes (kung lalaki
ka) o yung high-heeled
sandals mo (kung babae ka)? Yun ang isinusuot
mo dahil yun ang gusto mong
ipambalandra at ipakita sa iba buong araw.

Pero at the end o f the day, kapag pagod ka na sa
maghapong trabaho.habang nasa biyahe ka na pauwi ng
bahay.ano ba'ng tatlong bagay ang
ini-imagine mo'ng gawin? 1.) Magpahinga 2.)
Kumain ng hapunan at 3.) Magbihis
ng damit-pambahay at magsuot ng tsinelas.
Tama, tsinelas!

Naisuot at naipagyabang mo na ang lahat ng
magaganda at mamahalin mong
sapatos. At maaaring marami ka na ring
napahanga dahil dito. Pero sa
bandang huli, kapag hindi mo na kailangang
magbihis ng maganda,
mag-pretend ng kahit na ano, nasa bahay na lang,
walang make-up at ikaw ay ikaw
na lang talaga, di ba't ang simpleng tsinelas pa
rin ang
hahanap-hanapin mo? At wala ka nang pakialam
kung may tatak man ito, mamahalin o may
kung anu-anong burloloy.basta ang alam mo,
tsinelas ang gusto mo.

Sa buhay mo, marami kang makikilalang babae
at lalake. Maganda, Gwapo,
Sexy (pang-FHM), Mayaman, Malakas ang dating,
Hanep ang porma, lahat
na. Pero sa bandang huli, pareho nating alam na
hindi yun ang
pinakamahalagang ingredient ng tunay na
pagmamahal. Kumportable ka ba sa taong
'to? Does he/she make you feel good about
yourself? May kakaiba bang
'warmth' na ibinibigay ang taong 'to, na parang
nagsasabi sa'yong 'you're
home and safe at last'? Does this person make
you happy? Tinatanggap ka
ba niya kahit 'pambahay' na lang ang hitsura mo?
Siya ba ang tipo ng
taong alam mong makikinig kapag nire-report at
ikinukwento mo na ang mga
nangyari sa'yo buong araw? Think about it.

I'd be a lying asshole kapag sinabi kong
aesthetics do not count. Pero
ang puso, tumitibok yan sa mga di inaasahang
pagkakataon. And sometimes
you wonder about it, and most of the time, you
even deny it. But deep
down, you just know, and feel, that it's right.

Ito ay para sa mga taong nakahanap na, at
naghahanap pa rin ng tsinelas
nila. Congratulations at Good Luck! Nawa'y
nakatulong ang obserbasyon
kong ito, salamat sa pagbabasa. Happy hunting!

" People may be unkind, just be kind. They may CHEAT just be HONEST. They may forget your good deeds, just do GOOD. In the end, its between YOU and GOD, NOT YOU AND THEM. God Bless.

Ursa Minor is a constellation in the northern sky, the name of which means Smaller Bear in Latin. It is colloquially known as the Little Dipper because its seven brightest stars seem to form a ladle, or dipper shape. The star at the end of the dipper handle is Polaris, the North Star. If you stood at the north pole, Polaris would be almost directly overhead. If you can spot Polaris in the sky, you can always tell which way is north. In addition, the angle of Polaris above the horizon tells you your latitude on the Earth. Because of this, Polaris was the most important star for navigating at sea. (copy-pasted from wikipedia. hehe.. hirap kaya nyan!)

For me, this constellation has always been the symbol of our friendship connection in Christ. It all started in our hometown church at Muntinlupa where we bonded and became as close as one could possible be. Sis Jen formulated the acronym J3MARC (one of these days, I will ask her of the history) and that has become a "for better and for worse" tag. Wherever you are guys, we're not that far away. We're still under the same stars!

As I look back now, I'm so happy to have met these people who have somewhat molded me to be what I am now. For our Pastor Raffy and wife ate Let-let of NBP Bible-Centered Fellowship and to the Praise and Worship Team at that time with ate Becky. Thank you. It's been, like nine years now, but I am still applying the lessons all of you have taught me. I still write my Prayer Journal occasionally. :-)

quotation for the day

"For I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through Him who gives me strength." - Philippians 6:11-13
