He Is Not Your World.

BROKEN HEARTED?Well,it does really hurt..
BUT YOU ARE STILL ALIVE AND BREATHING! 
BROKEN HEARTED?IT IS A BLESSING, BE THANKFUL, REJOICE! 
I've just been there, and I could say that if someone tells me during "those days" that "It's okay, there are a lot of other guys there!" or "It's okay, you deserve someone better." Well, to be honest? "IT IS NOT OKAY." Because I was on the stage of "I want him back!", "He's the only guy I want and love!" and other things like that. Everything was broken, shattered and crushed. I was so lost, I wanted to just run away--far far away. But there's one thing I'd never ever give up, and that is MY FAITH IN GOD. I made that promise when I was in 2nd year high school, and with God's grace I haven't broken that promise and I'm still holding on to that promise until now.☺ That's why I didn't give up on life even if I was broken hearted!It is because of God's amazing grace!☺ After almost two months of being depressed and all, I've finally stood up and gave my heart back to God. I've been so really thankful to God for letting me be broken hearted, because if not? I won't be where I am right now. The moment I gave my heart back to Him, it felt so good and RIGHT. He gave me so many blessings and He opened a lot of windows for me. I agree with what Finn's dad,Burt from Glee has said "You know the saying,when God closes a door, he opens a window? Well, sometimes out of nowhere, he'll do you one better, and he'll kick a whole wall down." That is so true, because God really did kick the whole wall down for me and until now He still showers me with different blessings. My relationship with Him is really better now than before. I've been growing a lot with Him and I would never ever exchange or give up my relationship with Him for whatever "earthly" things now. Also, my relationship with my family now is stronger than ever, and I really treasure that a lot. 
There are a lot of things I learned because of being broken hearted. 
-My family loves me so much and they are the greatest blessing God has given me.
-The people who truly care for me.
-It doesn't really matter if you have hundreds or thousands of friends, what matters most is that you have a few true friends, or even just one true friend.
-No guy completes me, only God completes me. 
-I should not settle for 3 words  "I love you", but for 2 words "I do".
-Love and relationship is a multiplication formula,1x1=1. Me and that right guy should be whole first with our relationship with God before we enter in a relationship. 
-Let go and let God.
-Right person in wrong time is still wrong.
-There is no other way but God's way.
-People will persecute, because you are living for God. But "if God is for us, who can be against us?"(Romans 8:31)
-The devil is always there tempting you. So be strong in God.
-Wait for God's right time, HUWAG MONG UUNAHAN SI GOD.
-God is the one who Authored love.
-These are the ingredients for a BAD ROMANCE: WRONG TIMING and COMPROMISE GOD'S STANDARDS
-God is a God of second chances.
-Whoever my guy is,HE IS NOT MY WORLD but GOD IS.
-There is no quick antidote for a broken heart. No pill, taken twice a day for two weeks, will cure it. A broken heart needs a different kind of healing--and doses of compassion, listening, love, comfort, encouragement, and blessing will eventually restore joy and hope to your soul. God is the MASTER HEALER. Others can help, but no one can touch your broken heart and heal it as He can. When you are hurting, move toward God, not away from Him. He is the greatest source of joy and healing. (The One Year Mini For Women)


Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
1: There is a time for everything, 
and a season for every activity under heaven;
2: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3: a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,
4: a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5: a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
6: a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7: a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8: a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

Psalm 143:7-8
Come quickly,Lord,and answer me, for my depression deepens. Don't turn away from me, or I will die. Let me hear of your unfailing love to me in the morning, for I am trusting you. Show me where to walk, for I have come to you in prayer.

Romans 8:1-8
1:Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2: because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. 3:For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering, 4:in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the spirit.
5:Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6:The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; 7:the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law,nor it do so.8:Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.

Romans 8:10
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 

James 1:2-8
2:Consider it pure joy,my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,3:because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4:Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5:If any of you lacks wisdom,he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6:But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7:That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8:he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

I wrote something and I want to make it a song, but I don't even know how to sing or play any instruments. HAHA!Actually,I wrote two "pieces". One for God and one for my right guy. ☺ I just want to share it.

"Painting My Life With YOU"
I want to thank You
Thank You for breaking everything,
For me to be back to You.
I was so far, but you stayed near.
You didn't give up on waiting for me.
You stole my heart when I was serving this world.
Now,I am flying to Heaven,I'm not alone anymore,
You and me are flying together.
With Your inexhaustible grace,
I've been painting my life with Your colorful blessings.
United with You, together with You,
We will win the battle of life.
You made me Your friend,
Now and forever, You will be my Best Friend.

"If God Is For Us,Who Can Separate Us?"
I've been waiting for you.
I've been praying for you.
Now that God gave me you
My dream came true
He made His promise to give me the better one,oh it's you.
If God is for us, who can separate us?
Hold my hand, let's dance in this life together
Never let me go for we are meant to be forever
Hold my hand,let's take this road together
We'll write new memories that are worth our ink
We have the whole lifetime to paint our journey with our hearts
We will not fight in this life of ours, we will fight for us
This is the right time
You are the right one
Everything feels so right
This is our time
I've made it
We've made it
I can't wait to say my "I do" 'coz I love you.
If God is for us, who can separate us?

Why Don't You Give Love On Your Birthday?

*Super duper late post.

Ever since last year,I've been thinking of having an outreach for my birthday or just to help and make the less fortunate happy. But, it was my 18th birthday,so I had a debut party. I can say that my parents and my sisters really worked hard for me to have that grand debut party. They gave all their best to make me feel extra special that night, and thank you for them. Also,I couldn't plan and think of those things, because my priority that time was different. I was too focused with something else. :) But this year,I made sure that I will be having an outreach program for my birthday!:) 

I just turned 19 and I think I really need to be more responsible now with my priorities. After the "turning point" of my life,I've kept my focus on God and I can say that it really helped me heal my broken heart. So, anyway...Last February 5,2011, I've organized an outreach program with the help of Kriscel(church friend). This was the second time that I've organized an outreach and it was also the second time that Kriscel helped me.First time was last December for Christmas,with Malcolm and other friends and family. :)

At first,my family and high school friends were supposed to go with me in this outreach, but they got busy, so I asked some of my college friends and I felt so blessed that Zoe,Anna and Embi were so game. Embi also asked me if she could bring her boyfriend,Mark,and of course I said YES!:) I'm kinda shocked that they were so game and when the kids were hugging and touching them, they weren't reacting bad or "nag-iinarte".I LOVE THEM!:D In the end,the people present that day were Embi,Mark,Zoe,Anna,Jill,Asley,Ate Aye,Kuya Ken,Miko and me :) 

The name of the organization is KANLUNGAN in Angel Linao St.,Paco Manila.

Here are some photos!:)

GAME NA!
Yes,that's me LAUGHING HARD. Because....
We couldn't decide if we should call Zoe "Ate or Kuya" :) 
Love you,Zoe!
KIDS JUST LOVE GAMES! :)
BRING ME. So they ATTACKED me
and ZOE!:/ :D Thanks,Embi :))
SONG and DANCE "Every Move I Make"
FOOD!!!
The head of Kanlungan led a prayer for me :"> 
Then they sang a "Happy Birthday" song.
Awww..They were so nice with the kids :"> The kids loved them!
THANK YOU!:)

Exodus 23:19
Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of the Lord your God.

1 Chronicles 29:16
O Lord our God, as for all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name, it comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you.
