Weakness


Each and everyone of us is not perfect. Specifically, Christians.

Christians have a goal to be holy and perfect in the eyes of GOD but we never get to that point. Why? Because IF we are all perfect, then we don't need GOD anymore.

I've had so many revelations today since I've been asking GOD so many times already. I need revelations everyday as much as you do, you know. I'm being makulit. hehehe! I'd love to share those revelations NOW! hehehe!

1st text message sent by Ate Cheryl:
Thought for the day:
"Don't ever try to understand everything; some things will just never make sense. Don't ever be reluctant to show your feelings; when you're happy, give in to it. When you're not, live with it. Don't ever feel threatened by the future; take life one day at a time. Don't ever feel guilty about the past; what's done is done. Learn from any mistakes you have made."

This is my revelation for my lovelife. I have been weak lately. Spiritually and emotionally. I believe it's because of my unfaithfulness to GOD. I admit that because of my busy schedule, my spiritual life has been affected. If your faith fails, everything else fails so put GOD first. Based on experience. I've always believed this. The devil took that 'weakness' as his foothold but I'm glad that my GOD is bigger than any foothold. HE is my Rock and my Fortress. My Deliverer. I have been scared in expressing my feelings through words. Something that is not good for a relationship. I asked for a revelation through a silent prayer and GOD sent me this text message. I believe so. GOD never disappoints me whenever I needed revelations.

2nd text message sent by Bro Nonie:
"Do you know what is hard about being too strong? Nobody might care to ask if you're hurt. But it's great coz GOD knows and cares for us."

Christians tend to show they're strong for GOD's glory but you can never show GOD's glory without showing your weaknesses. How can someone know that your GOD is strong if they don't know you're weak, right? It always feels great to have helped someone so let someone help you. Eliminate pride. Everyone around us get weak even our spiritual leaders. It is our responsibility to check on them once in a while and to encourage them even if it doesn't seem that they need it. We are their accountability partners. I've read news about pastors of big churches who failed and sinned big time. We can't watch them fail. Watch the holiness of others, as what my sister once said. It is the responsibility of the people (members) around them to check on them and not assume that they're strong all the time. Without my Cody, I would have failed this race. For those who don't believe that GOD uses people, well, better think again. Ponder on it. GOD uses my boyfriend to strengthen me. Not that GOD isn't complete but coz GOD's Holy Spirit lives in people who has faith in HIM. That's why GOD used Moses as HIS servant and Aaron as the speaker. You have to be humble. GOD will help you once you've recognized your weaknesses. You can't seem to hear HIM when your heart is hardened by something or someone. So open your spiritual ears and your heart to GOD.

3rd text message from Jergens:
"You won't fully enjoy a swing unless you raise your feet from the ground. You won't fully enjoy a boat ride unless you remove the rope's knot from the river bank. Your dog won't fully enjoy his/her "dog life" unless you remove the chain on his/her neck. Lesson: never ever limit yourself when it comes to happiness, learn how to let go and take risk. Life is much beautiful outside the comfort zone."

Happiness is a choice. You can either choose to be sad all your life or go your way and choose the path of happiness that leads to the good life GOD has in store for you. A happiness that corresponds to GOD's Will in your life. Learn to let go of your worries and have faith in GOD that HE will always direct your path and guide your feet. Well, anyway, HE already knows your future so why not trust the Author of your life, right? Take risk according to GOD's Will. If you are risking for HIS greater glory, then go for it. If you are comfortable in not risking because you are afraid then you are missing out a lot. If you haven't tried to live the path of righteousness yet, better start now. You'll never know what's in store unless you risk some and find some. I am a testimony of this. I was scared to risk and let my guard down because I am so afraid to love again and might get hurt again, but I realized that GOD will never leave me and that HE gives trials for HIS glory and for us to learn and pass onto others. If I don't try to risk, I won't know what lies ahead of that comfort zone. Like now, I am so scared that Cody might hurt me coz of the past I've had. But, I know GOD will not forsake me. I am risking coz of my revelations and the faith and trust I have in GOD. So far, so good. And also, Cody has been consistent with his patience with me, his care, his love and respect. To top it off, he has been growing in GOD. My fervent prayer for him. GOD is so good!

My devotions for today:
Psalm 107

Pretty long chapter so just click on it if you desire to read it. I just realized now that this is the perfect devotions for me today. Truly, GOD's love endures forever. While I was reading it this morning, I didn't know why I've read that. Now I know. I'm so happy that my gift is back. hehehe! That's why it's always advisable to read your devotions in the morning because it starts your day right and you bring it with you all throughout the day. I have been unfaithful but not rebellious in my ways but then GOD delivers me all the time. That's what this book/chapter speaks of. GOD's undying love to HIS people whatever they do. I love the last verse...

Psalm 107:43
"Whoever is wise, let him heed these things
and consider the great love of the LORD."

The conclusion that is well meant for me. You have GOD's promises everyday, too, so read your Bible and meditate on it. Believe and it shall be given unto you.

A Scripture verse that has been revealed to me twice through 2 different email devotionals:
Joshua 1:9
"...Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

This is a revelation for my career and lovelife. Since I've been unfaithful to GOD lately, I don't know what to do and think. I've thought of not-so-good things. I've been scared physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. But GOD is faithful. HE gave me this verse twice. HE is makulit, too. I love it! hehehe! I still know my purpose though and I'm going to be stuck with that forever and I love every single bit of it! GOD's strength shows only when you're weak. That is the main purpose of trials in your life.

2 Corinthians 12:9
But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

Once the Holy Spirit nudged us to move and obey, do it.

Exodus 23:20-22 (NKJV)
“Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. Beware of Him and obey His voice; do not provoke Him, for He will not pardon your transgressions; for My name is in Him. But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries."

Well, I am back on track. Thank GOD! I thank GOD for a boyfriend who continues to grow in HIM. Thank you for the patience, honey.

This blog should be updated daily. hehehe! Please remind me. We have revelations everyday.

GOD'S WISDOM AND DISCERNMENT BE UPON YOU!

Jealousy or Envy


Destructive criticism exists because of jealousy. Wise people of GOD use their tongues for encouragement. Growth starts within you not around you.

One way to know someone is jealous: he criticizes by what he see, not by what he know.

One way to react with jealousy: pray for the jealous spirits and be thankful for the blessings that others are jealous of. (wise, huh? hahaha!)

Constructive criticism builds up your spirit. Destructive criticism discourages you.

We don't need to be jealous of what our fellow Christians have because we don't have it. We should be encouraged to delight more in the LORD because if GOD delights in you, HE will give you the desires of your heart that are according to HIS Perfect Will. It always depends upon GOD's Perfect Will for you.

Psalm 37:4
"Delight yourself in the LORD
and He will give you the desires of your heart."

Examine yourself. If you are a jealous person right now, submit your spirit to GOD and you will learn to appreciate everything around you.

I am grateful for my parents who instilled a content spirit in us, their children. I can remember how my parents would always give the fair attention and love to each one of us. I was never jealous of what my sisters have or what others have because my mom taught me the spirit of contentment that she has. I thank GOD for the spiritual contentment with the things that I have now. All that matters is eternal life anyway so why worry of what I don't have now. Lay your treasures in heaven not in worldly things. As long as we are pleasing GOD, we should not be jealous of anything that we lack coz GOD is our pure satisfaction.

Let's be happy of what others have if we want others to be happy of what we have.



May GOD satisfy you in all aspects always!

Jergens Jessel Sarmiento

My faithful follower. A real friend. A loyal companion. A soldier of GOD.

If I have to define friendship, I'd say 'Jergens.'

We have known each other for a long time already. But, we've been real friends since last year only.

Jergens is not perfect. I am not, too. But together, we call ourselves 'Moses and Joshua' or 'Paul and Barnabas.' Moses' successor is Joshua. A success is not a success without a successor, as what sister Melissa once quoted at church. Jergens always insists to be Paul. hahaha! So be it. Barnabas' gift is a heart for people, anyway. hahaha!

Jergens is like a sister to me. A sister in CHRIST. She once made a feature article about me that was for the school paper. She encourages me when I'm weak and I do the same. She listens to my advices and rebukes. She never slandered me. She never raised her voice at me. She never argued with me just so she could win an argument. She knows how to apologize when she makes a mistake. She knows when to listen and when to talk. She always asks how I'm doing. She cares about everything in my life. She's never afraid to cry when she has to. She discerns when I get sad at her (one way to know who your real friends are). She makes me unique and creative gifts. She is never selfish when it comes to me. She understands every concern that I have and we both learn from it. She makes mistakes but knows how to accept and confess them. She understands my moods. She still stays with me come what may because she is never selfish to keep to herself. She is my advocate. She is smart and perseverant with her studies. She desires to learn more. She is interested with my lovelife. She is the only person who really knows about my love story with Cody. She knows it's GOD's gift.

When I've read an 'Our Daily Bread' article entitled 'The Apprentice', I've instantly thought of Jergens. I will always thank GOD for the friendship I have with her. It is GOD's gift to me since we've met each other personally in an 'Encounter GOD Retreat.'



THANK GOD TODAY FOR THE REAL FRIENDS YOU HAVE!

GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY! GOD BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS!

Falling in Love

myspace glitters



After I read an article about walking in love and not falling in love, I began to ponder. I've always questioned it before. I used that phrase, too. Maybe a million times. hahaha! When I surrendered my life to GOD, this phrase has been my 'OCD.' hahaha!

Then, I had a revelation when Cody was here. We talked about it and as I was trying to explain it to him, revelations start flowing in my head. I tried to find the phrase in the Bible. This is what i found...

1 Samuel 18:20 (NLT)
"In the meantime, Saul’s daughter Michal had fallen in love with David, and Saul was delighted when he heard about it."

The only verse that has 'fall in love' in it. Nothing in NIV or KJV versions.

I also never believed in 'love at first sight.' Too corny and false. hahaha! I've always believed that when you fall in love, you fall out of love. Love is a process. Too confusing or unacceptable? Here is a clearer explanation as what the Bible says...

2 John 1:6
"And this is love: that we walk in obedience to His commands. As you have heard from the beginning, His command is that you walk in love."

Ephesians 4:15-16
"Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work."

2 Thessalonians 1:3
"We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing."

If we can see, the verbs used were...
1) walk - to pursue a course of life
2) grow - to increase in any way; to become larger and stronger; to advance; to extend
3) build up - to increase and strengthen; to increase the power and stability of; establish, and preserve
4) increase - To become greater or more in size, quantity, number, degree, value, intensity, power, authority, reputation, wealth; to grow; to augment; to advance

When we accepted CHRIST and absorbed HIS teachings and chose to obey them, from the OT, the NT stated that there are 2 commandments left. We'll just study the second one which is...

Mark 12:31
The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

Since it's a commandment of GOD, in order to prove that we love HIM, we obey HIM by loving others. First is neighborly love. A love commanded by GOD but with a willing heart. The special person in your life is given to you for you to love with a neighborly love at first. In worldly terms, it starts with friendship. And as the days, weeks, months and years go by, that love grows. You never just wake up thinking that you already 'fall in love' because in the first place, it is already a command. Love is a process not an instant emotion.

If everything went to courtship, then the love is progressing. As what is written, love is defined as...

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails..."

All I know is that I never fell in love with Cody. My love just grows more each day. I've proven that neighborly love by never leaving or forsaking him and I never will. To GOD be the glory!

Any questions or comments are welcome. Do not hesitate to ask or even object. hehehe!

A GOD-given life


I never thought I could ever have him. All I dreamed of. Even more than that. If I have to love all over again, I would only love him. For me, he is so perfect. With the gentle touch of his blue eyes which can be grey and green, too. What a beautiful sight!

This is one of my sad and confusing days. He asked me, "Do you ever see yourself grow with another man 2 months from now?" I never doubted my answer. The reality will always remain. I will never desire any man other than him. He is my heart's desire as my present and my future, as well.

I've been sharing my concerns with him. He was, as he has always been, truly patient with me. He is very openminded and understanding. He respects me so much. Emotionally, spiritually and physically. We have conquered another complication again. Another trial in our relationship. I give GOD all the glory for the changes HE has done to Cody. The growth HE has given to him. I am truly honored to share my life with this man. Cody stood by me for almost 10 months now. I am not easy to handle, by the way. hahaha! GOD has gifted me a very patient man who sees me as the only woman in his life aside from his mom and female relatives, of course. A man who only wants to see me happy and grow spiritually. He even stayed up late earlier so we could resolve our problems. I appreciate everything he does for me. Sometimes, I even ask myself if I really deserve a beautiful blessing like him. Unbelievable but true. I am grateful for a relationship grounded on GOD alone. Our feet will always go to the same path. The path that leads to GOD!



I talk to other girls and read other girls' stuff on how men disrespected them. A simple fact that I truly appreciate is that Cody never tried to talk/chat sexually immoral to me. He never insisted me to be on cam all the time and show him my whole body or get naked in front of the cam. Another fact is that I don't have a personal cam. Only I see him on cam and he always gets dressed whenever I ask him to be on cam. Kind of biased but then I can't afford a cam for now. hehehe! He respects me a lot in sexual terms. And to think, Americans are liberated. He is very different. One of his best qualities that I could never stop thanking GOD for. I'm very sure that even if I get naked in front of him, he would never touch me. He even reminded me to study my Bible (his gift). Study not just read. hehehe! That's why it's called a 'Study Bible' hahaha!

GOD's blessings are the best especially if they're HIS Perfect Will.

Romans 12:2
"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will."

I also want to share that in order to attain a Godly relationship, there should be a formal closure from your past. Genuine forgiveness from both parties. If you want to stop literally dreaming of your past, decide and take the risk on formal closure. A personal testimony...I have gotten over an ex last year for only 2 weeks. 1 day of crying. Why? GOD healed and renewed me. After that, I pursued a Godly life. Just when I surrendered my lovelife to GOD, HE gave me Cody. Real friendship. My best friend next to GOD. My partner and helper here on Earth. The problems don't end there though. I've been having dreams of 'the ex' still. Many times, I've heard preachings about soul ties. What I did is get rid of everything that came from 'the ex.' I couldn't bear dreams of him so I decided to do what our pastor always share about formal closure and assuring forgiveness from the past. I have forgiven him for his shortcomings but for some reason, I could discern that he still hasn't forgiven me so I wrote him an email last month if I am not mistaken. I asked permission from Cody and he supported me. After that email, I stopped dreaming of him which is a relief for me. To top it off, I dreamt of Cody. Seeing him in my literal dreams is such a beautiful gift unfolding right in front of my closed eyes. Before, I used to believe in forgive and forget. Now, I believe in forgive and love again. Love more. Forgive and renew your spirit. Just forgive. Whenever I hear or see my ex's names, I don't feel bitter anymore. No more pain or fear of the past. All the negative washed away by GOD's unfailing love.

Matthew 6:14
"For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you."

Matthew 18:21-22
21Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?"

22
Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.

Mark 11:25
"And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."

I don't have a perfect life. When girls talk about disrespectful men or a bad past, they might tell me that I don't understand because I am happy with my life now, but I've been there. My life can be an open book and you'll see that I've encountered all kinds of men. I survived. GOD healed me. I can tell you now, with all honesty, my heart is clean from pain, fear and grudges from the past. No anger. Just lessons learned. Blessings appreciated. Apart from GOD, I am nothing. I was nothing. I still am nothing but HE is my every good and perfect thing.

James 1:17
"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."



Our Father in Heaven, be exalted in my life!

A Blessed Day


Every day made by GOD is beautiful.

I've been down and low these past 3 days and some people don't even know it and they treat me rudely and abusively because I don't give them the attention that they want. I truly admire the selfless people who care to ask how I'm doing. I don't need lots of advices. All I need for now is just the presence of real friends who know how to ask how I'm doing. It doesn't have to be extravagant. All it takes is a quick 'hi.' Real friends should be comfortable with the silence needed. You don't have to be talking all the time to please one another. I am not perfect. I still encounter problems. I still get sad when moments of sadness attack me but GOD is my ultimate joy. HE uses real friends to cheer me up. HE also gave me a void that only one person can fill and that is my soulmate. My Cody.

This morning, I had that sad feeling. I had a 'children' encounter. When I rode the jeepney, one of the parents at school paid for my fare. I thanked her and asked her about her children. It was amazing to know that her boys were very concerned about her. How her eldest doesn't want to go back to my parents' school which is a private school because he doesn't want his parents to have problems in paying the tuition fees. I also found out that he and his siblings save up their money by walking when going to school and going home. And that he also knows how to take care of his siblings by cooking for them when their parents are away. Also, the youngest girl who is at the age of 5 already knows how to get her clothes from being sun-dried and put them back at the drawer. The parent was crying while she was telling me those stories. I admire her kids for the beautiful hearts they have without forcing them to do chores. Some children nowadays are brought up rudely. I rarely find children like these. Some children nowadays are brought up in a spoiled bratty way. These kids I'm talking about are at the age of 5-12. Young hearts who know how to care for their parents. My heart melted while listening to her. And to think, they are our neighbor. 3 houses away from us. Second, while I was in the jeepney, while the music was playing, I saw this little, cute girl lip-synching with the song. It was cute because her face was very dramatic. Third, I had another little, adorable girl look at me and she smiled. I smiled back at her while she stared at me. Children always make my day good. I am pleased with my little, smart nephew who obeys me. Before, we would usually fight because he's very spoiled with me. But now, I've learned that you must learn to say 'no' so that children won't abuse you and get whatever they want. Discipline is one of the best gifts you can give to children. I lift these beautiful children up to GOD.

I am truly blessed today. I had my friend, Karen treat me for lunch and Jergens treat me for snacks. I have been eating a lot lately. hehehe! When GOD gives, HE gives abundantly. HE also answered my prayer. I just need more discernment for HIS Perfect Will for me in a certain matter I asked from HIM. GOD has never disappointed us. HE just wants the best for us.

To my real friends, thank you for always praying for me. I love you!

To my honey, thank you for always being there for me. I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH, MY CODY!

To my parents, thank you for not forsaking me. I LOVE YOU ALWAYS!

TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! I LOVE YOU TIL ETERNITY WITH ALL OF ME!

The LCD Projector

Image from student computers

Our outreach church in our town conducted a youth concert. Our youth pastor assigned me to take care of the LCD projector. This afternoon, I was with Jergens and took the LCD projector that we're going to rent for the praise and worship. When we took it from Karen, her brother told me that it doesn't have the connector for the laptop. I was a bit worried but then I tried to ask the youth pastor if they have a connector. We went straight to church to test the LCD with my laptop. It wouldn't work. We've tried everything from the USB to the headphone thingy. None of them worked. I don't know but I didn't really panic. I was calm and tried to solve it by texting the secretary of our head church to borrow their connector. The concert was programmed to start at 6pm. The head church people came at around 6pm with the connector. The worship head coordinator helped us with the connector. He never stopped until voila! It worked. At the very last minute, it worked. We all felt good after seeing it work. GOD is so faithful! The first thing I've said was, 'Thank you, Lord" and that is all I have to say. I couldn't let our youth pastor down and most of all, I couldn't let GOD down. I went there to serve GOD and I couldn't just leave without doing anything for HIM. I glorify GOD alone for the patience and calmness that HE has been giving me. With everything and everyone I'm dealing with. I thank GOD for the tactful tongue and a sharp mind that HE has given and been faithfully guarding all the time. HE alone is worthy to be praised and worshipped! I am unfaithful but HE is faithful and good all the time.

Let your guard down to GOD and HE will do the rest. HE is always faithful.

A very sad day


Cody left this morning for the US. I've been crying so much last night that we barely had a conversation. We just mostly stared at each other's eyes. When he was telling me sweet things, I couldn't help but cry. I am missing him so much! He is the one. I do not desire any man but him. I've seen so many things with him. Like a saying at a Shakey's restaurant, "...Your mission is to Spread the Word." and others more that are situated above 2 buildings. I will soon post the pictures of those when Cody gets home. I've learned a lot with him. Mostly about patience. Through thick and thin, he is the only man that I love and I will love. Please never stop praying for us. We are grateful for your gifts of prayer.

Anyway, I was so sad this morning when he left. I couldn't even talk to him in the taxi as he kept on babbling. He just kept on staring at me. He loves staring at me. I had to let him go real quick coz I'm not very good with goodbye's but then, we didn't say goodbye. We said our 'laters.' I am excited for the next meeting. We'll be together for good by then, my love.

As I was in the first bus on my way back to the province, there was a movie played. One boy was named Cody. I felt sadder that I got teary-eyed. At the bus terminal for the second bus, I saw a little boy. He is Filipino-American but his foreign blood dominated him more. As I was staring at him, his mom was trying to give him a piece of loaf bread but he wouldn't take it and cried. His mom then picked a small piece and he took it. He made me smile. My first unforced smile for the day. I told myself that I will have children someday. The boy will look like my Cody and the girl will look like me as Cody always insists. Awww...I feel like crying again. I miss him. A sad feeling. Worse than all the break-ups I've been through. We've counted the days before meeting and we still counted sadly when the day came to separate temporarily. He has my heart locked to him alone.



Ecclesiastes 7:3
"Sorrow is better than laughter, because a sad face is good for the heart."

I thank GOD for a real relationship that I never had before. I lift this relationship to GOD alone. I am very thankful for the strength that GOD is giving me. Inspite of all the odds, HE is always faithful to me and to Cody.
