Distance was never a hindrance of her unwavering love and guidance Her friendship never ends until it marked deep in thy hearts unto these souls that once were lost
And now, as we celebrate her journey of His promise May His favor rest upon her as she takes a step to a new road of Faith

I wake up with a fresh hope in mind. This time around I know it's gonna be fun. looking beside me a baby's face that I truly love that just reminds me of how I am also loved.
Sunrise, oh another sunrise I wish to wish you'd be nice I long to be happy tonight. Shine on me, so that I could be. and let your smile takes away all misery
Oh baby, don't make me cry so please don't cry. let me be carried away with your tender touch so that you could truly be loved. and wake up with another sunrise.
With your charismatic personality and persuasive powers you naturally attract all the good things in life which you could want. Kind, generous and sincere you are a good friend and partner with strong attachments to home and family. You are ambitious and have sound business acumen, this together with a natural love of life ensures that you enjoy success financially and in your relationships.
this quiz is pretty interesting, it actually hit all my interests. If God would give me a chance to study again (for His Glory of course), I'd gladly take this quiz's advice. Here's my result:
You scored as Visual&PerformingArts, You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in the Visual or Performing Arts (e.g., Art, Art Education, Art History, Ceramics, Culinary Arts, Dance, Drawing, Fashion Design, Film, Graphic Design, Interior Design, Marketing (advertising), Music, Music Education, Music Theory, Painting, Photography, Theatre).
It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would--it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.
Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Please post your results in your myspace/blog/journal.
time calls for a rest. dusk rules over the sun. eyes seem to look to the other. where have all the righteous gone? as if only sinners were born.
soul searching. knees trembling. wanting, needing, resting. for such a time like this.
why? what is this season for? confession is just like a bin. and repentance washes a sin. but why? are we all wretched? to deserve such a death
then why these souls long for a nest. hungry for independence. why are we so desperate to change. Is there any need for it?
Only for a Man who chose to die. for such a time like this. Chose to walk away Be crucified and let blood be wasted
Maybe that's it. His Blood speaks for self His Death takes every breath. and let the wind whisper what it meant.
And that Man hanging Is the only One who can save. not only the cleansing and the asking but also from the depth of thy soul of the crucified Man, who's called a Savior.
May You cover me with your love when all my strength has gone. May You be my refuge when I see injustice and criticisms on both sides. May You be my vision when all I see is just plain blurry. May You be my comfort when I feel my heart is pierced to the core.
When I struggled to understand, grant me Grace to love. When I struggled to get up again, teach me on how to take hold on you. When I'm being called to represent and be a voice, I hope to be heard. May You be the Peace I long to feel.
And when people just speak out as if they see the other side. Then just slap words infront of you as if it is all true. When you hear voices of complain and don't want to speak when lion is around, when unfair judgement to the other that happened to be a friend, I can only pray and keep silent for Hope.
When I'm left alone standing in between circles of different perspectives and principles. And I happen to be the reciever of every thought. Teach my heart to cope up to every hurt
When I see no one to help out, May You be my Guide. When I see people just slowly walk away, May You be my Encourager. And When I am misunderstood, May You just be beside me.
I desire nothing, only grace and strength to keep running. I ask nothing, only to give me wisdom and courage for everything. I don't need money, I don't need position and I don't need negative thinking. I only need my God to keep me going. Oh God, grip me tight.
In a manger, you were born did anybody expect it? did anyone know? that you would be You. and be laid there.
Shepherds waiting for you the wisest of men seeking you even prophets of old proclaimed you did you know?
your parents were afraid of your birth how did they ever come to imagine a messiah would be born through them even herod had no idea who you were and just let him kill innocents in exchange of you how brutal it is to know
isn't it so strange? that this would be the story of your birth tragedies were meant along the way and death even had been laid. Was it supposed to happen? Just to let prophesies be fulfilled?
So strange to know The King of kings have been born for the merciless kings and be killed by them So strange... That you were born in a most humble place In a manger, where only a star is your light.
You were molded inside the womb of a teenage girl. ordinary, innocent, young, poor. She's no queen, He's no king. but they were chosen for you to be poor. but how come? You're a God. You don't deserve it.
What's the reason for this? You were born just to die and later, live again? Why? Will you tell?
But I'm glad You were born because I was given hope, I was given life. I, too felt have been born ... again. Even if I don't deserve it.
PS: this poem is my gift for my blogs, hehe. Merry Christmas people!
December 1, 2002 was one of the days I would never forget. An
18-year-old with the group of same age went to a mountaintop
experience. The day was a God-appointed time to call each one to a
higher level of faith and commitment. I was young in age and in
spirit, young in my commitment. Never even had a knowledge on how it
is to serve. Just went there for the feeling of excitement to once
again encounter the Lord in a special way, in a special place and in a
special event. It was a retreat, with talks from our youth leaders, I
even forgot what were their teachings, hehe. I wasn't even into an
emotional state. We wrote a covenant, enjoyed the company of friends
and ate great meals. We even made a pact on late afternoon. I
remembered we were encouraged to say something as we put down our rock
but when it was my turn, I didn't say anything, I was speechless. I
just didn't feel like it, yet I knew inside of me I've made a
decision.
My written covenant was not even so dramatic and glorious but one
thing that made it special, it was the sincerity of my heart to let Him
do his thing in my life even if I had no idea on what it is to live for
him. I was so new, I was young and felt strange in a group where few I
could tell friends yet at the moment where everyone just slowly recited
their covenant, I was just there kneeling, whispering mine. Tears
rolled down and I knew God was calling me for something. "There is an appointed time for everything",
that was one of the verses that struck me. Though I was still new and
still felt like a stranger, I felt it was time for me to serve Him.
Then the rest is ... history. It's been 4 years, people and come, and
seasons changed yet His Love stays the same. I'm now 22, and looking
forward for more. A lot of things have happened, I'm still here
serving and as they say, "the reward of service is greater service" but for me, "the reward of service is deeper intimacy".
And even until now, I could say, I've never yet known the Lord. He was
just so Big. There's a lot of Him to know and even time is not enough
to Know Him, in eternity maybe.
If I've given a chance to once more experience it, I would take it and
this time, with a heart so open to whatever He has in stored ... not
shaken to what it sees but just be moved to what it believes. A heart
that knows where it belongs. I would still utter few words, still in
the state of silence and still feeling strange just to encounter again
the God who knew me and called me in my worsest state. The only One
who let me feel that special.
Dear Lord, as days pass by and years
gone by, may you always remind me on who You are to me. May I always
be reminded of the things you've done that made this life worthwhile.
Thank you so much for calling me in my worsest state, for calling me
from my grave to make me live again.
Standing still on the ground of the place where nothing is found. only me and my soul that seek solitude for home. I wonder what road now I'm on, where path that seem to hide before me. yet my soul seem to know where it is heading. Does she hears a voice?
Is it really You she follows? or maybe, she just allows Someone to take over and let wind pass by our wings. though I seem to believe it, like every bit of it is reality. Reality that's like a dream And a dream that's like a feeling Or just senses I capture in the wind.
Through these eyes that I try to keep close. See beyond ordinary, beyond existence that let my soul captivated to the courts where I feel like my name was called.
Allow me to feel You in the air. Hear you in the wind. And pass before me with Your Glory Smell the sweetness of You that I too may be Holy Can I stay like this Forever? Can I just sit down any longer? Forget that time is running and let life stops it Just to remain within the presence of mystery.
This might be a dream and if it is, allow me to sleep then. Longer than I used before, or better yet Forever. And Wrap me around Your shoulder, hide under Your Majesty.
Still, I have to leave and face days with gladness. until this life ends and eternity begins. Where road will be new and be ushered to You to the Paradise I belong as You have promised.
Highschool days are about to end and here I am again, trying to step up to another level of my life, college.Years in highschool have been great, experiences that led me to learn a lot of things, molded me to be who I am.Who I am, is the product of who I was yet I don’t know If I learned that much.All I know is that I’ve got treasure of memories to keep and friends I need to bond with for the rest of my life even though fate seem to separate us.Maybe, this time bids us to say our goodbyes but I believe someday we’ll be meeting up again, talking over dinner and sharing parts of life we have experienced.I hope this time will stop and rewind, I hope things won’t change for I hate to grow up.I hate to see time move so fast, I never realize time has been so fast not until I reach this point.Life has been fun looking back at it yet a newly opened door is calling me to be in and let growth be embraced.
I wonder what’s instore for me.I wonder what’s the master plan for me.I wonder who are the people waiting for me.I wonder what’s life out there in general.I may still be a kid now but when I come to walk toward that door, things won’t be the same.I could only pause for a while and thank God for everything, for every moment I spent with family and friends, for every grades I struggled to pass, for school from where I spent special memories I would treasure inside and for teachers I listened to almost everyday, thank you by the way for the lessons.And now, I need to walk through a new path, with a changed mind.I’ll be stepping out of my comfort zone and let maturity influence me.I expect all the unexpected for I know, I will once again learn a lot of things.
I want to enjoy life each day knowing that I’m growing up.There would be a lot of opportunities for me out there, a lot of places to discover, a lot of people to connect with.It’s exciting to know that these things would be a channel for me to discover life itself.I hope things will fall as it should.I hope to keep seeing the light as I go through this new path and leave the old one knowing that I’ve learned something for a sole purpose to be better someday.Future has been a mystery since,life has been a ride andI hope this time will lead me to a true meaning of both, the meaning of the future full of hope and a life lived to the full.
I lay down this chapter to Destiny where everything has been planned out.I believe in a future full of hope, I believe in true meaning of life.I believe there’s so much more to know and to learn.School life may end, yet learning will never end.Life is a chapter of lessons to learn.Life is all bout learning and growing, and it will just stop when death arrives.I want to live with a docile heart, capable of discerning between things to be learned and things not to be.I want to live knowing that there’s a Creator who’s so behind Destiny and will.
