Leading a Worship: Draft

Image
  Invitation for worship Start with a question: Mag bigay ng tatlong salita kung anong ang role ng Diyos sa buhay mo? Lalo na sa hinaharap nating pagsubok ngayon? 1 2 3 Let’s shout those 3 all together. 🎵  “Way Maker Chorus” 4x) Feel the presence of the Lord before doing the sign of love, In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit - invite the Holy Spirit 🎵  Way Maker - continue praises -  🎵  Here I am to worship - sing praises- Testimony -akala ko perfect ang buhay -until iniwan ako ng taong first love ko, ang tatay ko -evey night umiiyak kami ng nanay ko na babalik siya kahit hindi na namin alam kung ano nang nangyayari sa knya -until such time right in front of my eyes, nakita ko siya with the other woman -I did nothing but to asked him why, pero iniwan niya lang ako at naglakad palayo sa akin -the first man who I loved first was the first one who broke my heart - wla na yung tatay na tinitingala ko, wala nang magtatanggol sa akin dito...

My Conversion Testimony

Image
I drafted this testimony when I was giving a message to my colleagues, during our morning prayer time in school. I am so blessed to be sharing this breakthrough to them and I pray that some way somehow, I have been a help to them.  —- Let everything we do, be done with love. 1 Corinthians 16:14 This is my testimony when I was: Immature - since I was a kid, pabibo na ako, bidabida laging nasa harap at ang mga consequences na hinarap ko: pressured kung gagradute ba ako, kung makakapasa ba ako sa thesis and practicum, kung mkakapasa ba ako sa LET, nabato ako ng maraming judgement from my family, friends, and lalo na sa mga hindi nakakakilala sa akin, na wala nang ibang hobby kundi tingnan ang mga mali sa pagkatao ko, at hindi ko kinaya, hindi ko hinarap yon, I was lost and I decided to left my church service. Depression - Noong grumaduate ako, year 2016, nagpakasubsob ako sa trabaho. Gusto kong umiwas sa ingay ng mundo. Dinamihan ko ang raket schedule- no social life , nagstop ako mag...

My 22 Takeaways from 2022

Image
Maturity is when you stop pleasing people. When you notice the change, accept it, no more drama, no more fights. Just walk away with a smile.  Connection in any form and trust are the foundation of a strong and healthy relationship.   Reading books is very relevant in this social media era. Even as technology advances, demand on uniquely human skills is increasing (listening skills, attention to detail & attentiveness, effective communication, critical thinking, interpersonal skills, active learning) yet reading can help developing all these skills.    Surround yourself with people who care about you more than just themselves. There's always going to be someone out there that can't stand you. Rather than worry about it, surround yourself with positive and genuine friends. Some people do not know how to resolve conflicts and are afraid to be left alone so they will rather keep quiet and play safe when there is an issue without talking it out and finding the soluti...

Another Attempt

  I cooked pork humba for lunch. It tasted awesome.(Humble brag) My niece even always requests me to cook it for her. 🤭 Humba is braised pork with salted black beans and is great with hot steamed rice.😋 I also accidentally cooked yum garlic tuna pasta. I feel so powerful! 🤣

Dear Future Husband

Image
Ang jejemon ko sa part na ito. Pero isa sa mga activities sa church noong 2008, 14 years ago, pinasulat kami ng speaker ng love letter para sa future husband namin. That time wala pa akong boy friend. Noong naging kami ni Pao, I gave that letter to him noong 1st year Anniv namin. There, he kept and took care of it pala.  Then 2020, hindi ako binigo ni Lord, pinagkatiwala Niya ang future ko sa taong ito.  I got engaged to my best friend and the love of my life and I am over the moon. 🤍 

1 Year of Togetherness

Image
 One year past of our togetherness. My husband's love is the strongest and truest. I feel blessed and grateful to God for giving him to me as my partner in life.  I am so proud to be his wife. This past year, he and what we have been building together have had proven to be a blessing beyond my wildest dreams.  It's been a year since we were very busy preparing for our most awaited matrimony. We even made everything aesthetic and worth sacrificing for.  Here are some photos of our preparations:    There are a lot of things that happened after our wedding... It's hard to believe it's already been a year. It's been a year of joy, laughter, and love. It's been an epic ride but i could not imagine spending this roller coaster ride with anyone else. I am so thankful for our first amazing year together as husband and wife.  God has been faithful and I am so grateful to that.  One year down, a lifetime to go! Happy first wedding anniversary to my hardwork...

✨Blessing✨

  My hubby and I bought our first ever car. We made sure to have its safe haven and be used wherever we wanna chill out to. Music optional. Oh, and pets.  It's amazing therapy. Paolo and I would just drive around and outside the city, and enjoy nature from the AC filled comfort of our car, lol! 🥰🫰🏼 Before this decision has been done, and finalizing into buying; we thought a lot and did a lot of prayers and asked guidance from above. Thank You, Lord for all the blessings! 🥰✨

My First Ever Chopseuy

Image
  I grew up without knowing how to cook. So, making this chopseuy is I consider one of my milestones. It is not so easy to start from scratch, but because I love what I’m doing and I love whom I’m doing this for, everything is achievable. To more dishes to cook. 🥰✨

Kumusta?

 Ang salitang KUMUSTA ay nanggaling sa salitang espanyol na “Como Esta” na ang ibig sabihin ay pagtatanong ng iyong kalagayan ngayon. Maraming kayang gawin ang salitang KUMUSTA. Pwedeng baguhin ng isang simpleng "kumusta ka" ang nararamdaman at iniisip ng mga tao sa paligid mo.  Baka may hinaharap silang problema at gusto na nilang sumuko subalit dahil nagtanong ka, naging okay at gumaan ang pakiramdam nila. Salamat sa PUSO mo! Pero ngayon, Ikaw? Kumusta ka? ❤

The Vine and the Branches

  John 15:1-8 New International Version John 15:1-8 15  “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.   2  He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit,   while every branch that does bear fruit   he prunes   so that it will be even more fruitful.   3  You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.   4  Remain in me, as I also remain in you.   No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5  “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.   6  If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.   7  If you remain in me   and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.   8...
