Together Again

The joy of a wife is to be with her husband. The joy of a husband is to see her wife everyday of his life.

For us, that defines JOY...being TOGETHER and never apart.

For how long, we don't know. But we trust in the Lord in everything. We don't hold the world, Jesus has it in His hands.

It took longer than expected to be back in each others arms again but the joy of embracing our dreams being together is without an end.

I thank God for a husband who cares and who works as a good man working for his family.

I thank God for a year of strength and courage and comfort and patience He gave us.

I thank the Lord for the fulfillment of His promises. There's nothing too hard for Him and we testify on that.

"Together Again"...a song my mom and dad usually picked on our karaoke moments.

Sweet.



Praise the Lord.

IF I HAVE THE GIFT OF PROPHECY 
AND CAN FATHOM ALL
                      MYSTERIES AND ALL KNOWLEDGE, 
AND IF I HAVE A FAITH  
THAT CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS, 
BUT HAVE NOT LOVE, I AM  NOTHING."                       
1 CORINTHIANS 13:2 


Search me o Lord

Lord, search me
My heart and mind
Come and make me realized
Life is not for me to hold
But Yours to mold.

Lord, search me
When sun won't shine
When days are blue and skies cry
When hope can only be found
In You.

Lord, search me
Night and day
Consoles my soul
Bring out in me potentials
To be able to overcome trials.

Lord, search me
Do not give up on me
Lord search my soul
Let Your Holy Spirit
Takes control.

Broken and Happy

Many times in my life, i always feels good about everything. But there's just some part of that "everything" that somehow shows me realities in life....that sadness will always be part of it.

Seems like yesterday when i first started writing and reading. And now reading and writing added stress to me. It's not as fun as before. Its not as inspiring. It's not as cool.

Why?

Because some time in my life i felt broken...i felt something emptied within me....something is missing.

Those are the times when i wanted to write but emotions won't let me. Because i know i won't be a blessing if i say something out of my emotion that will just ruin a day...my day.

But life goes on. Life will always be beautiful regardless.

I am broken...but happy. Because i believe someone's in total control of my life. It's that HAND that i know i will be safe and guided accordingly. The ARMS that will always embrace me and tells me everything will be alright. That WINGS that will fly me away from past pains and discouragements and bring me to a life of purpose..where happiness is waiting.

I am broken and happy.

Glad to have Jesus in my life. Everything's smooth and wonderful!

A thought for today

This is a message I've read from one of my friends in Facebook.

It says,

"
‎..You cannot lift up HIS name if His Glory cannot be seen in you......:-)"

The message is sooooo true....as for me.

This made me meditate and reflect on the Word.

Thanks brother Alberto for this :)

the Gospel

The Gospel is a message to WHOSOEVER :)

To ALL who have sinned 


Romans 3:10-23

New International Version (NIV)
10 As it is written:   “There is no one righteous, not even one;
 11 there is no one who understands;
   there is no one who seeks God.
12 All have turned away,
   they have together become worthless;
there is no one who does good,
   not even one.”[a]
13 “Their throats are open graves;
   their tongues practice deceit.”[b]
“The poison of vipers is on their lips.”[c]
 14 “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”[d]
15 “Their feet are swift to shed blood;
 16 ruin and misery mark their ways,
17 and the way of peace they do not know.”[e]
 18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”[f]
 19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. 20 Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.
Righteousness Through Faith
 21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in[g] Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,



It's a message of the LOVE of God. 


Romans 5:8

New International Version (NIV)
8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.


It's a reminder that we can be saved by faith 



Romans 10:9-10

New International Version (NIV)
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

Romans 10:13

New International Version (NIV)
13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Why do we still have problems if God cares?

Well, PROBLEMS are common to man.

And still there are instances that problems causes us to give up and turn away from our faith.

It is because of certain questions that came from our expectations as compared to what really happens.

So why do we still have problems if God cares?

Because we think that PROBLEM is never good. We find it easier to accept when the unbelievers suffer but when Christians suffer, most of us begin to doubt God. And forgot that God is a just and good God.

Found the truth about problems:

> it doesn't happen without God's permission.
> it has purposes in our lives.
> there's a corresponding promise on every problem
> the Lord is bigger than our problems.

God never gives up on us even though how many times we fail Him and how many times who break a precious heart. The Lord intervenes in our lives, reveals His loving and forgiving heart and uses the problems we have to get our attention and force us to realize that we can't make it on our own. We need Him and we could never live victoriously without HIM.

It says "Anyone" and "Whosoever"

ANYONE who has the gift of serving should SERVE.

ANYONE who has the gift of teaching should TEACH.

WHOEVER has the gift of encouraging others should ENCOURAGE.

WHOEVER has the gift of giving to others should GIVE FREELY. 

ANYONE who has the gift of being a leader should try hard when he LEADS. 

WHOEVER has the gift of showing mercy to others should do so with JOY. 

Romans 12:7-8
