Photo Quote of the Day

Good morning!

I was off social media for a good 5 days and now I am back :) Did you miss me? Haha! #feeling

5-day fasting is done for the start of the year, so I can eat solids again. Yipee! It was real funny actually, because out of the 5 days, I had to attend 3 birthday gatherings, so bye bye Greenwich, Amber's and Buddy's foodie feast :(

I cringed a little when my office mates were happily munching on the pansit habhab at Buddy's because it looked really good... but it's okay, I know it's going to be worth it and a commitment is a commitment.

Liquid fast for five days. No turning back.


I don't think that God was laughing at me as He watches me from above, although He may be resisting a smile (Ha!)... but those gatherings mean that there are more people, and more people means a bigger opportunity to tell about what this fast is about and why we do this :)

Because for a girl who has a healthy appetite to suddenly be seen sipping soup or drinking juice, something is obviously amiss... and when something is amiss, questions start to roll in.

I hope that you were able to write your faith goals for the year. I completed mine on the Eve of Fasting and I have 11 items on it... but during fasting, God revealed certain things to me that I will be adding on the list. So it's a work-in-progress list.

Don't feel shy on adding items on the list, and be brave and honest when you feel that God is telling you to take out certain items.

Also, be expectant while reviewing your list on a regular basis. Write it on a piece of paper that would require you to always see it (so it may be a good idea to pin it on your planner or Bible) because you have to watch how God is answering those prayers, because being the forgetful people that we are, we sometimes lose sight of these goals...

So there you have it, just a quick update :) Do shape up those faith goals and watch Him move.

... And since it's the weekend, I leave you with this photo quote.

Happy Sunday, loves!

Bridal Shower Ideas

Hey pretty ladies! Throwing a bridal shower for your dear friend soon? Here are some ideas that you may want to explore :)

i love You

Just sneaking in a post to share how God has been good to me all my life :) Somehow, no matter how much I try or anyone tries, I haven't felt loved and I couldn't love the way God loves me. When I talk to people and I try to describe God's love, every analogy falls short... simply because His love is just so much more intense and it's unconditional. For this post, I want to share the role that love plays in allowing God to be the Lord of my life. :) When we talk about Lordship, it usually entails a sharp intake of breath and begrudgingly opening our hands to release something that we have held on for too long... but Lordship can also be a natural response to what is already made complete in us. Lordship, at its best, is an expression of love. :)

This Thing Called "Grace"

I'll be off work for the rest of the month (yaaaay!) and I'm excited to just sit in coffee shops, with my notebook on hand, or to plop a pillow on the bed and catch up on my reading list... Excited for the quiet stillness that the next several days would bring. There are still merry making days and huling-hirit parties but there will also be quiet times in which I could t just soak in everything and I know that it will do my soul well :) With all the busyness that this season brings, just taking a few moments to take everything in will do you good too :)
