...missin my mama so much...
"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort." 2 Corinthians 1:3
...i miss my mother so much.. T_T..
I can hardly see through my tears.. T_T
I have conversations with her in my head all the time and try to think about what she'd say about this or that...
So often, when I'm making a decision, I wish she was here so I could ask her advice....and so many times, when something happens that I know she would enjoy, I wish she was here to share it with me...it's been a decade already since the last time we're together..she works outside the country to give us the best life...she sacrificed a lot for us... She's more than a mother to me; a reflection of God in her face I see, a love that knows no boundaries.. I had hurt her a lot and caused her much pain but still she forgave me, accepted me and called me as her "precious".
Dear Lord, thank you for blessing me with a mother who introduced me to You when I was old enough to talk. For without You, I’d be lost and certainly wouldn’t appreciate the mother you gave me..
My heart's desire is to be with her again..missin my mama so much... T_T

...waiting not in vain...
...There are days when I feel strong, resilient and focused. I see at times a window of progress. And yet there are times I feel impatient waiting for a breakthrough in my career. I wait. I watch. I wonder when, why, who and how?
...It takes a lot of strength to persevere and have patience to wait for GOD’s divine timing in my life. It’s not easy, though.
...There are voices without and within causing me to think that I am defeated, unworthy and forgotten. Yet I desire to grow in my patience and faith.
...Rest assured, that my waiting is not in vain. God is faithful. I may not see or understand God’s mysterious ways or divine delays. Yet I wait and depend on God for HIS strength and guidance.
…Thank God for HIS promises never fail:
...Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.
- Isaiah 40:31
...The Lord is good to those who wait for Him
- Jeremiah 3:25
...Wait on the Lord; be of good courage and He shall strengthen your heart
- Psalm 27:14
...Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
-Psalm 37:3

God's mercy is new every morning. (Lamentations 3:22,23 KJV.)
Some nights I crawl into bed convinced I must have used up all of God’s mercy that day.
I started working as a Nurse Preceptee in Vicente Gullas Memorial Medical Hospital since October 22, 2010 and at the same time I work in E-lamp as an online English Tutor to Koreans.
"Don't you get tired? That must be really stressful", they said.
I always thank God for His grace in my life. His grace is more than enough. He renews my strength everyday. There are days when I wake up in a "so-so mood" but I thank GOD because His mercy is new every morning. He is a merciful and gracious God. I wake up every morning and greet each new day knowing that His mercies are new everyday.
“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” – Lamentations 3:22-23

We started working as Nurse Preceptees in Vicente Gullas Memorial Medical Hospital since October 22, 2010 and our contract ended last January 22, 2011.

..Straining Forward (my 1st post for 2011)
..forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead...- Philippians 3:13
A new year is upon us.. it leads to new beginnings.. new learning.. and ends the old ones..
..consider this: much more there is to life than living in the past...
In looking back for the past 23 years, it was not easy to see beyond my own pain and hurt. I have not been proud of all the choices I have made in the past. I have done silly and unwise decisions. I could never have imagined how many lives would be impacted by the choices I made. I have hurt the ones I love now and then. I had regrets and was frustrated many times. But God has always been good. He provided people who never stop believing and seeing the best in me even when I was at my worst moments.
To those I have hurt:
I'm truly sorry for the things I have done. If you ever find it in your heart to forgive me, you must know, I NEVER meant to hurt you.
To everyone:
Thank you for being there to make me laugh, to scold me, to criticize me and to rebuke me. You all made me a better person.
We all could live in the past, wishing we had done things differently. But Today is a new day. It's time to forget what lies behind. I'll make the choice today to press forward. Trust that God has a better future in store for me as well as for you. Trust that He's working behind the scenes on my half. As I press forward, I will move forward, and will embrace the life of victory God has in store for me.

Even though there had moments that I forsake Him.. He was still there to comfort me when I had no one to turn to. His love and grace are more than enough.
