Pope Francis in Manila

These past few days, the Philippines has been graced with the presence of Pope Francis. What He imparted to the Filipinos, especially those that have been affected by the Yolanda typhoon, was so special and valuable that it reminded everyone that God IS here, and in fact He has always been here -- with us.



God hasn't been gone missing. He hasn't forgotten about His people. He hasn't turned a deaf ear to our cries, wails and hardships...

He has been walking with us every step of the way... and although we know this truth, it sometimes takes another person to remind us of it.

Pope Francis has been instrumental to pointing people back to God -- Jesus Christ is the only way, and all glory, honor and blessing go back to Jesus.

So thank you, Pope Francis for visiting us... but more importantly, thank You JESUS for being the kind of God and Savior who meets us wherever we are in the faith and for being Emmanuel - God with us . :)

Ligawan Stage So this is the part where Dennis already laid down his intentions, and I said yes to courtship.  I’ll share here the things we learned and what God taught us during this season. Hope this encourages you! Dennis told me to share his insecurities in this blog because he thought that it would encourage the men out there. Some of his insecurities were:

Passionately Curious

Here is the post I wrote years ago! I echoed here what I learned from the 2 speakers, Tricia Gosingtian and Ana Santos. Tricia is a fashion blogger, so there's a part of the event in which we all had to pick out and model the outfits from Bayo then Tricia picked out winners from the attendees. So the event started with that then went into the specifics of fashion blogging then writing in general. :) Hope you'll pick up a few writing nuggets! Happy reading and writing!
