Inside Mae

Madali natin makita ang mga negatibong bagay at mga pangit na masakit para sa ating mga mata. Kaya let's learn to see the beauty in everything. The greatest light in the world is the face of Jesus. Ang kagandahang hinahanap natin sa mundo ay nasa mukha ng Diyos dahil ang lahat ng magagandang nakikita natin ay reflection Niya. Panginoon, liwanagan mo ang aming isipan na sa kabila ng kadiliman ay makita namin ang Iyong liwanag.

God's Love Creates Forgives Redeems Love is not love, if it is not shared God looked at everything that he made and He found that it was very good yet Man rejected His creation by sinning Gen 3:21 Gen 12:1-3 God wants for us to come back to him Lk 15:20b He is God ☝️ The God who will run out to meet us whenever we decide to come back to him The God who will come out to comfort and assure us whenever we feel rejected, taken for granted or hurt God's love is expressed in offering of his son John3:16 1John4:9 Rom5:8 Let's believe in God's love. If you look at the cross, you will see His head lowered to Kiss you. You will see His arms stretched to hug you He loves us in spite of how poor and sinful we are God's love  is reflected in his creation

"A life without service, is a life without joy." Sa paglilingkod ko sa Panginoon, mas lalo kong narerealize na marami akong makamundong kasalanan. Yet because of the goodness of the Lord, the more na lumalapit ako, the more na nililinis ako ng Diyos. Let me share to you the story of St. JOSEPHINE BAKHITA (credits to Catholics New Agency) St. Josephine Bakhita, a Canossian Sister who was kidnapped and sold into slavery in Sudan,  was born in 1869, in a small village in the Darfur region of Sudan. She was kidnapped while working in the fields with her family and subsequently sold into slavery. Her captors asked for her name but she was too terrified to remember so they named her “Bakhita,” which means “fortunate” in Arabic. Retrospectively, Bakhita was very fortunate, but the first years of her life do not necessarily attest to it. She was tortured by her various owners who branded her, beat and cut her. In her biography she notes one particularly terrifying moment wh...

So ayun sumakay ako ng jeep, medyo siksikan na pero kaya pa ng isa, tumabi ako sa isang ale, pero bago ako makaupo bago sya umusog nag se-cellphone kasi antagal, then she rolled her eyes on me kasi pissed off siya. Nang makaupo ako, i saw her typing "Just thank God for a new day to us" Minsan ironic talaga ung mga sinasabi natin sa social media kesa sa tunay na buhay. Yun lang naman point ko, walk your talk. If I could only teach the people to be grateful, we could have an amazing world where negativity could not grow and foster and children will have a smile on their face.

I would like to give a reaction about the movie, "Sid and Aya". I watched this few months ago this year. Now Im ready to share the poem that I made depicting the story. "Sid and Aya not a Love Story" Si Daya Hawak na nga ang alas Ngunit biglang nadugas Sinubukan muling tumaya Ngunit may nagparaya Pusong handa nang sumugal Natakot sa salitang mahal Sadya ngang nadaya Ang pusong kawawa Si Daya nga ba ang nandaya? O siya pa ang nadaya. Magulo man ang tadhana Puso pa rin nila'y magkikita. Damdamin nga'y mapaglaro Masakit kung matalo; Ngunit mas masakit kung maloko. Kaya sa larong ito, Si Daya nga ang nanalo; Isang sugal na walang premyo. -Mae *isang gurong humihiling ng Part 2 sa istoryang ito. Mata ko'y naloko Damdami'y nabago Istoryang mapanglinlang Sid at Aya bigyang hirang.

Remembering some of my experiences during my 1st year of teaching grade 1 kids. Ang Kawawang Ipis Okay bago ko matulog just wanna share this. Natatawa ko nang pinatay ko yun ipis sa classroom kanina. Kasi ganito yun, we were celebrating Nutrition Month earlier in the morning. My pupils were asked to bring food to share. So eto na nga, we were placing the foods on the table in front of the classroom. One of my pupils went on the bookshelf to get some tissue. Then all of the sudden he shouted "Teacher may ipis!" Okay so ako, not pretending na narinig patuloy lang sa pag asikaso in front, but he insisted, ang sabi ko "okay don't worry hindi aalis yang ipis na yan dyan". So we continued the celebration. Hours passed by, as I entered the classroom, nakita ko ung students ko nagkakagulo sa shelf, tinitingnan nila kasi ung ipis andun parin. Sa sobrang inis ko, pinaupo ko silang lahat tapos pinatay ko ung ipis. Then lahat sila sumigaw "Oh gross!" at nanahi...

This poem is dedicated to my lovie, Paolo Domingo as an appreciation to all the love that you give me. I love you so much. Gaano kita kamahal? Hayaan mong ilahad ko. Minamahal kita sa lalim, lawak, at lawig na kayang abutin ng kaluluwa, kung ang kamalaya’y naglaho na sa pagwawakas ng pag-iral at minimithing pagpapala; Minamahal kita sa antas ng pinakabanayad na pangangailangan ng bawat araw; sa umaga ni sa gabi. Minamahal kita nang malaya, tulad ng pakikipagbaka sa karapatan; Minamahal kita nang dalisay gaya ng pagbibigay puri sa Maykapal. Minamahal kita kalakip ng sidhi ng mga nakaraang pighati, kasama ng aking mga pananamplataya sapul nang pagkabata. Minamahal kita nang may pag-ibig na tila aking naiwala, minamahal kita sa bawat hininga, ngiti, at luha. At kung Kanyang hihirangin, ikaw ay lalo ko pang iibigin kahit na sa oras na ang buhay ko ay pawiin. Disclaimer: credits to the owner of thim poem.

" A house that is divided, is meant to falling apart." This reading is not about "us" in the ministry rather it is all about the "ministry" towards us. We are actually just a simple individual, but through sharing God's Spirit with our brothers and sisters, we become special. In Christ, we create new "family" that is called to be an instrument in proclaiming God's love. Through Him, we build Spiritual unity to resist the attacks of evil and temptation. God gave us brothers and sisters to extend our arms for each other, to accept ones' weaknesses, to love each other's imperfections and to pray for one another. Truth is, the ministry is not needing us, we are the ones who need the ministry. We should not be divided; we should help each other; together let's work God's will because we-are-ONE in the Lord.

(We, as Christian students) "No disciple is superior to the teacher; but when fully trained, every disciple will be like his teacher." -Luke 6:40 Dos 1. Always ask for guidance- in everything you do, always ask for the Holy Spirit to be *smart in everyhting you do and in every decision you make. (*Smart means- specific, measurable, attainable, reliable and time-bound) 2. Bring your bible- you do have the freedom as a christian student to voluntarily bring your Bible to school and read it during free-time periods. 3. Talk about Jesus with friends!- You also have the right to read, study and discuss the Bible with friends—so long as the activities are voluntarily led by students and done in a way that is not disruptive of instruction or class time. That means you have the freedom to lead discussions about the Bible during free periods like the lunch hour, breaks between classes or during student-led meetings before and after class. 4. Remember that you have the f...

Just wanna share. Few months ago, ive been struggling about my hair loss due to stress and over thinking. Until such time that i desired to cut my hair as short as possible coz i cant take care of my hair anymore. I attempted to go to parlor and advice the hairstylists to do the style but all of them told me that it wont fit my face size, and will have a "jollibee face" if i did. So i took their judgement and decided to just have a hair trim with treatment. Yet i wasnt satisfied. Few weeks after, i went back to parlor again and asked the parlorist to give me already the pixie cut, as usual the judgement was same, and i effin believed again. Then time went by, i came up to the thought that, "wait, cant i have my own decision for myself? Why cant i disagree with their judgements? I have to stand firm and believe in myself and pursue what i really want." So bravely, i went to the parlor again and i made sure that this time i will have the style that i desired since th...
