My prayer

I submitted this prayer yesterday on http://ourletterstogod.tumblr.com ... I'm just glad some people liked it. :)


dear God,

Its such a cruel world out there but whenever I close my eyes at night I know you’re just up there looking out for me. I may lose hope many times, I know you’re there to light my way again. I tend to hate the world I’m living in but whenever I see the special people in my life, its as if you’re the one telling me that I’ll be okay. Everything’s going to be fine. I can achieve my dreams. I can live my dream with your help. Thank you for allowing me to be imperfect, to make mistakes so that I can learn. Just don’t give up on me my dear God. Please heal my heart so that I can embrace all the pain. You know how much I try to be strong for others, please don’t let go of my hand so that I can be strong for myself. I love you, forever and always.

Just let it go

There is a point in our life that no matter how much you want to have full faith in the Lord, it seems it's slipping away. We grasp onto whatever we have left in us and pray on dearly that we hang to HIM. We take the easier path or depend on our judgement.
The Lord will not give us problems we cannot handle, this we need to believe and with Mother Mary's intercession, it will be easier to succeed. - I pray that we find true meaning of each our live's journey. - ADMIN

I just found this on a like page of Mama Mary On FB.

And I was really touched because its what I'm feeling right now. And it gave me the will to hang on. Than You Lord and Mama Mary. :)

So Good

God is always good to me. I just felt relieved this day. Even if I'm a bad girl He always send me love. Thank You my God. :)

My prayer for the week :)

Dear God,

I'm offering it all to you. This week will be the biggest step i'll take for the rest of my life especially on Thursday. Give me strength, patience, and the ability to defend our study. I believe that I can surpass this with my group mates. I know that i have given up many times but you never gave up on me. I'll forever be thankful to you. Embrace me with all your love...

I love you God! We can do it! :)

Me and God

Everytime I see depressed posts, sad posts etc. I always remember this quote "Just shout to your problems, Hey! I have a BIG GOD! You can't bring me down."

When it comes to depression, I am on the top list. I always worry about things. every single little thing but I just don't show it because I don't want people to worry. then I changed.

We had our religion class in grade school. Our catechists are from a nearby church [i am not yet enrolled in a catholic school at that time]. That's when I became closer to Him. And maybe because of my Aunt's influence too.

There are times that I would question God too. Come on! I'm only human, but I always look for Him when I'm in pain that's when I started to forget to ask for reasons. I tried to understand every way that I can.

When you welcome God into your heart, everything will be okay.

Taking it easy

I just read my post in tumblr this morning and yes! I'm taking it easy. One step at a time. Thank you God for guiding me and I hope until the finish line (graduation *_*). I've been too busy but, I always make time for tumblr just to reblog quotes and pictures etc. I really want to inspire but I've realized that I'm not able to post my original works anymore. I really hope I could post my originals from time to time. I know that even if its just "You're worth it" or "Dream" or a photo of happy friends, I could inspire you (even if its just 1 or 2 of you.)

A prayer

God, with your guidance and love, I will surpass this all. Please, please, give me more patience to handle everything that confuses me. I hope my mind will remain open as I hear different sides of many stories. Please, guide me on the right path. I hope you will guide me as I write my heart out. I hope you could touch my mind so that I could deal with the things I don't like. Always guide my Papa as he try to fix other people's electricity. He is a thousand miles away but he's heart will always be with us. Keep him safe. Also, my Kuya (haha!) I hope he won't sleep as he try to be a very good employee. :) So, that I could all have the things I request from him (joke!) Please heal my Mom from the pains and the worries in her heart. And also my tita.

Thank You for the blessings Lord. I love you so much.

Sick

First month of the year and I'm already sick. What's good is for a very long time, its the first time I felt uber sick. The feeling of "hope you'd sleep all day and just wake up when you fever is gone." = boring. I think the last time I felt like this is when I'm a high school Senior after we practiced a "Speech Choir."

Though, I'm slightly feeling better still I felt bad becauseI wasn't able attend our meeting and haven't assisted in Imagi Editorial Board's shoot.

I hope I'll be better. I don't want to take medicines anymore. I've been taking 3 medicines since last night. :( Lord please, help me make me feel better and I hope this is just fever and nothing else. :(

Indescribable

For almost a week, I've been listening to songs about God, love for God and everything about Him. I have always payed attention to lyrics of every song that I listen to and end up listening to it for weeks, even for a month.

Last December 2010, my friend Gen and i started to send songs to each other. Actually, it was last year when Gen and I started to have conversations about Him. I think it was really because of our Logic Professor's influence. It all started with Do you read the bible? :) The rest is history.

I remember the little me, I can remember in details that when I graduated in Elementary, aside from having a Silver Medal, I was also awarded best in religion. :) I think it all started when I was young. I was born in Middle East Country with Filipino parents who are Roman Catholics. I cannot say that they are very religious but they have strong faith.

My faith became stronger because of my aunt too. My family has great influence with my love for Him. My kuya and I are attentive during mass and it excites us whenever we're the ones who will offer during the offertory. At an early age, they taught us how to behave whenever we're in church.

When you're growing up there are times that your faith is shattered. I am just thankful that they pushed (haha) me to enroll in a Catholic School (CSA-Biñan) that time. I really wanted to go to CASA because its the sister school of Montessori and that's where my friends are going (but something happened blah blah blah! anyway, Thank God I went to CSA).

When I entered college, all the values i learned in CSA where treasured in my heart until now. But, I am growing up. The harder the challenges are, the more times I question Him. Its hard to have a stronger faith when you feel that everything's falling apart. Still, I believed in Him. And that belief taught me how to hold on. Taught me things that I thought I would never learn.

Whenever I have unanswered questions, I always end up praying. I pray until the doubts would go away. When I started to read the bible again, I end up crying because I'm reading a verse that feels like He's talking to me. It always bring me to tears whenever I call up to Him and ends up that He is touching my heart to heal the scars.

If only more people would listen through their heart, if only they would just open it for Him... then life would be lighter.

I'm just thankful for this songs that my friends are recommending me, Jeff and Gen. Thank You:)) Its funny because I also recommend it to my other friends.

Me, years ago
(DEAR GOD Fm Static)

I've tried everything I thought might help me understand things
And it didn't tell me anything or even play my heart strings
So I'm writing You this letter to wait for Your reply
'Cause I am so tired of not believing I'll give You a try

(I think God can explain)

It's all right, I'm O.K.,
I think God can explain,

Me, whenever I have questions
Heart of Worship

When the music fades
And all is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart

Me, (recommended by Gen :) My love song for Him
Enough Chris Tomlin

All of You is more than enough for all of me
For every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with Your love
And all I have in You is more than enough

And my LSS for I don't know until when (thanks Jeff),

ALL FOR LOVE ♥ Hillsong United

"FOR HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I BROKEN YOUR HEART, STILL YOU FORGIVE ME"
--brings me to tears. THANK YOU.

day seven: five songs that describe your life right now

SONG 1. I think God Explain

"It's alright I'm O.K.

I think God can explain

I'm relieved I'm relaxed

I'll get over it yet."

Whenever I'm troubled, I just listen to this song and I'll be okay. I know God has deeper plans for me. :) even if I don't understand at times, He always find a way to comfort me. :)

SONG 2. True Colors

"So don't be afraid to let them show

Your true colors,

True colors, are beautiful,

Like a rainbow."

I'm a girl who is a size 14 :) but it has never get on my way. I'm glad that I have family and friends who accept me as who I am. But, we are not living on a perfect world, there are times that I feel really bad because I can't buy clothes that I want. And even if I don't really mind them, some rude people are really getting on my nerves. I just hope some girls could be positive who has the same situation like me. So what if you don't have a perfect body? Who cares, you are who you are. Stay close to people who will appreciate and love you without any why's. Those people are angels sent by God. :) If I would want to be thinner, Its not because others want it for me, not because I want to be like those famous girls out there strutting their stuff. I will do it for myself especially because I want to wear those awesome clothes that doesn't have bigger sizes and I want to be healthy. :)

SONG 3. Once in a lifetime

I know that what I've found is once in a lifetime

(and) I know there's no way out

Coz its once in a lifetime

this is a song for my friends. I'm so glad that they were sent to me, in the right time and in the right place.

I always remember that GG quote whenever I'm with my friends, "With friends like these, who needs armies?"

SONG 4. God Blessed the Broken Road

I've been talking about this song a lot of times. i love the lyrics so much, and someday..... Okay next. :)

SONG 5. I'll be there for you by Martin Nievera

"when the stars won't shine anymore, i'll be there"

This is our song, Trixie (my dearest sister/bestfriend) and me. This song is a reminder of a beautiful friendship. I just hope everyone has a bestfriend. A person who will still be true when everyone else is lying on your face. Someone who would be there when you want someone to listen. Just listen. :)
