Brain Farts

Taking a quick break from the devo and travel posts lately and just letting my thoughts run and pour over this (digital) space!

I feel like 2017 went by too fast, don't you? We are now on the last two months of the year! But I take it as a good thing, you know what they say, time flies when you're having fun!

It was my first time to go to Prayer Mountain last Wednesday and as I was sitting there surrounded with the lush forest and bamboos (and many mosquitoes lol! it's part of the experience), and I was going through my faith goals for the year... I am amazed how God has been so faithful in my life.




There were certain things that I wanted that He impressed upon me that had to take a backseat so I did... but are now resurfacing with open door of opportunities. It reminds me that sometimes we tend to forget the things we are believing in, but it doesn't mean that He did.

He takes our longings and dreams seriously. And sometimes, He just wants us to wait because He is cooking up something so much better than what we had in mind.

So a project is brewing!!! And I am collaborating with someone super talented, this excites me a lot!!!

My dad is still cancer-free and I am now officially a tita to my 2 weeks old nephew, Caleb! He is truly a God of miracles, our great healer and provider! Our dreams and prayers -- big and small -- are cradled in his mighty yet gentle arms.

And tonight, I'll be exhorting in our offering for our evening service at church. I am nervous but at the same time grateful for the opportunity -- anyway, I did write in my faith goals to "speak and write more for God's glory".

In short, all 12 of my faith goals are either fulfilled or are on its way to being fulfilled! And that realization just struck me as I was sitting there last Monday... behind a wall of prayers and verses and looking at the the beautiful creation before me. Sometimes you just have to take a breather and look back how far God has gone in your life.. and you're bound to see His faithfulness and love etched over it.

How about you? What are your realizations for the year? :)

So You Had a Bad Day

Last Friday, I caught myself getting irritated by the second as I get one bad update after the next at work - confirming either low performance for the month or delay in our campaign activities. I just wanted nothing more but to call it a day and go home...  But since that wasn't an option, I just watched a movie (yup on my own :P) and stuffed my mouth with Taters potato chips (cheese flavor!) and Jamaican pattie (cheesy beef!) later that afternoon. Yup, that made me feel a little better after! We all go through this kind of day, and so soon after ringing in the new year with our hopes and goals too!  Tsktsk! So as I dragged myself to take on the hours that day, I knew that I had to snap out of it and be wary, lest I find myself stuck in the limbo of the daily activities.

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. :)
