I Live for God. God Lives in me.

Matthew 5:43-44 43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. The first step to love our enemies is to pray for them. Jesus said, ‘pray for those who persecute you.’ If we pray for our enemies, something mysterious happens inside us. It is like pouring icy cold water to your sizzling emotions. When we continue to pray goodness for our enemies everyday, one day you’ll realize that your anger has gone. And once we have removed our anger, we can start doing good things for them such as: Forgiving and forgetting about their sins against us. Forgiveness is an act of the will of the heart. And Christian forgiveness means that when we forgive, we also forget. Love keeps no record of wrongs. Reaching out to them. We do not just forgive our enemies, we also take steps to be closer to them. Real forgiveness demands restoration of relationship. Just like how Go...

We are worthless in God's holy presence. We are just worms in God's sight. We are nothing compared to Him. So in everything we say and do, we must always be reminded that God whom we are serving is a perfect God and the greatest of all. We must be careful not to boast of our goodness to Him because nobody is good enough for God. But then, the Lord does not look on our imperfections. He sees what's in our hearts and if we are willing to be His children, He will certainly accept and change us to be a better person. God sees our worth as His creation and His love for us makes us worthy to come to Him even though we're actually not.

Last June 4-7, 2013, Emmanuel's Christian Family Life Ministries conducted the Operation Christmas Child Program. It is a program wherein Children are taught about Jesus Christ and they will be receiving donated gifts in shoe boxes. During these days, classes have already started so it is very hard for us, the Sunday School teachers, to compromise with the schedule of the kids. We weren't able to make them go to church for almost a week to attend the teaching program anymore. But this didn't stop us either from pursuing this activity. Instead of making the kids go to us, what we did is to go to them. Our head Sunday school teacher assigned us to different places to teach, some have partners, some didn't, depending on the number of children we are going to teach. Since I only have less than ten students, I was assigned to go alone in Sitio Parugan. I didn't know if I will consider myself blessed  that time because the venue where I will be teaching is the ho...

Happy First year Anniversary GenSaved! I love you all guys and girls! We've been through a lot and we know that the Lord has always been with us. In every circumstance, The Lord proves that He never leaves nor forsakes us. He is truly amazing in our lives both individually and as a whole. Let us continue being servants of the Lord! "If you want to be like Jesus, you have to be a servant with a good heart. He said, "I came to serve, not to be served." (Mat 20:28). -A true servant of God will be willing to serve in lowly areas – areas that nobody else would want to serve in. -A true servant of God is that this person gives and serves without expecting anything in return. -The true servant of God will be willing to give of his or herself even to their enemies. -A true servant will never boast, or think of himself highly because he is serving the Lord. "It won’t even enter his mind that he did such good deeds! -True servants of God will serve with joy all t...

Praising and Worshiping the Lord is not something to be ashamed of. Instead we must be proud to let others see that we know how to praise and thank God for everything that He'd done to our lives. We can show our love for God when we know that praising and worshiping God is not crazy but a pleasing offering for God especially when it comes from a pure heart like these children. Continue dancing with praises and thanksgiving to the Lord because He truly deserves it. (with Zaira Merlas and Jessa Romero)

There is no one and nothing to blame but me. I gave everything. I dreamed a lot. I hoped so much. And I loved so deep. Now, I have nothing but Nightmares Hopelessness And hatred. But then again, There is no one and nothing to blame but me.  

I've got to call you twice for you to notice me. I've got to speak loud for you to hear me. I'm not important, You care not to me. But this just one time, Please Listen to me, when I tell you that I Love You. (Nothing's changed, I know...)

I am in the cafeteria, drinking a cup of still hot chocolate. My elbows are resting on the table, both hands holding my head to prevent it from falling straight on the table because of sleepiness. I am waiting for my best friend. She’s taking her last exam for this day, I finished mine earlier. I’m really bored and tired. We are supposed to go home together, that’s why I’m waiting for her, here in the cafeteria. It’s already 3 in the afternoon. The cafeteria is less busy than it used to be every morning until after lunch. There are few students occupying other tables but they also seem tired and just wanted to take some rest and eat before going home. Even the canteen sellers and personnel seem exhausted and just waiting for this day to end. Strong winds made my long black hair sway. I can smell the food, the fruit shake, and even the scent of the girl’s strong perfume sitting in the nearest table. But it’s the smell of the hot chocolate that filled my senses… My eyes capture...

Lagi man kitang isipin Ika’y di mapapasakin. Kaya kahit panaginip Ikaw sana’y makapiling.

Love is a decision Set by mind, ruled by heart. But whatever it is, Both, stay in one body, Controlled only, by YOU… 

Genuine Love “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstances” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 When you ask different people from different walks of life with different beliefs if they know what love is and how to love, almost a hundred percent would probably say yes. But do we really know what love is? There have been a lot of definitions depending on a person’s perspective of love. But one thing is common to almost every person here on Earth; they choose who to love and what to love in a person. In order for us to learn how to love our neighbors, we must first know what love really is. And the best way to understand it is to seek for the one who started the love here on Earth, t...

This is for those people who knew how to love and how to be in pain. This is for those people who were left hanging and those who learned to spread their wings to fly. This is for those people who experienced the birth of love deep within themselves and eventually experienced its death. Yes, no matter how crazy or weird I am, I know exactly how it felt to be left alone in love. Just so you know, this experience had taken a lot of strength and courage from me that I had to ask for donations from my friends.  If you had experienced it already, congratulations because I know you passed the test with high scores (I just know).  I felt it and I understand that it is not easy. No matter what type of situation you were in, it’s just the same, you’ve been hurt because of the greatest feeling of the world, LOVE. While everyone is so happy about loving someone, while everyone is patiently waiting for their true love with high hopes, there you are, despairing, regretting that you...

March 23, 2011 My lips are smiling But my head is aching. My face looks happy But my heart is empty. Yes my heart is not broken anymore, But it is EMPTY. And emptiness is killing my heart.

I forgave you not because the pain is gone. I forgave not because I don’t care anymore. I forgave you because… I still love you and I still care for you. Maybe I’ll just love you this way now. And then maybe as days go by, I’ll forget that you hurt me. And hopefully forget that I love you too. It is because I know you cannot love me anymore the way that I love you now. And so I’ll just pray and wait for that day That I forget everything even my love for you.   February 2011
