2 ILCs = 2 handphones lost :)

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007

I attended my 2nd ILC! Praise God, it was indeed a very special one. A friendship leveled-up and we have experienced God’s abundant love, blessing, helping hand and grace. I’ve continuously asked God to boast off His power and majesty to us and He did.  Truly, if it is really for His purpose, no matter how scared you are and you decided to step up for Him, the result is really tremendous.

God once again talked and taught me a lesson in a very funny way. I’ve attended 2 ILCs already and I’ve also lost 2 handphones during those ILCs. I’ve just realized yesterday that God is teaching me lessons, refining my character and molding me to be a better Christian in any way He can. HE alone knows me so well!

In last year’s ILC, while roaming around Baguio’s marketplace, a pickpocket got my handphone. Upon realizing that I was snatched with it, I consciously told myself that I can choose to ruin my day with that event or just let it go because I can do anything about it anymore. Still looking so calm and collected and with a smile on my face, I calmly told my friends that I lost my phone. Everybody was worried and I was the one who is telling them that it’s ok. In my mind I am psyching myself that it is a form of welfare to the needy. It is also a lesson to me to be careful the next time and to be too trusting. Also, I told myself that God is teaching me a lesson on not be attached so much to material things.

In this year’s ILC, I lost my phone that is inside my checked-in bag when I flew back to Singapore. This is the third or fourth time I think that I’ve been checking in unlocked bags. So I was so confident that I can trust airport personnel completely. However, reality bit me hard.  God made me realize through my officemate that I should really lock my bags next time because there are accounts of others slipping in illegal drugs inside. I am still fortunate that I only lost my cellphone.

God is teaching me to be a smart Christian.  It’s really nice to know that He knows me so, so, so well. :)

BTW, through this experience He also made me feel loved and special.  It is in the form of 2 dear friends who voluntarily offered me their spare phones. :)  So ngayon di ko na alam ang gagamitin ko. :)   Thank you LORD!! :)

His art of mind and heart conditioning :)

Ang galing talaga mag condition ng heart and mind ni Lord!!! Hahaha!!

January 2007 is my most blessed and my BEST month ever!!  God made me realized that He loves me so much and He opened my eyes to the superb gifts that He gave me.  I was really happy and so, so inspired that I wrote so many blogs.  God made me feel so much loved, that I was so full of love for the whole world.  I was shouting to the whole world how generous and faithful He is.  I want the whole world to know that He really answers the cries of our hearts when we pray to Him.  While in that state of ecstasy, I was wondering how will I face His challenges and trials with my new found love from and with Him. 

The answer came immediately in February.  Ganon pala yun ano, hindi pa rin mawawala ang kaba at pagtatanong mo kay Lord.  Tao pa rin talaga ako na nakakaramdam ng kaba at nagwoworry.  He is reminding me that He is really my refuge in times of needs.  He reminds me to pray.  Also, He sends angels in the form of friends that I can talk with.  At isa pa, pinaalala Niya sa akin ang kanyang faithfulness.  Naiyak nga ako sa misa kanina kasi He assured me with His readings and gospels of His helping hand and that I should hope in Him.  Galing talaga mag plano ng araw ni Lord!! ;) 

Naalala ko na naman yung Eragon na sinabi nun dragon, from fear comes courage and with the 2 of us together, it is our enemies that should fear us. :)  Such a great relationship.  Such a great assurance that both may have fear but when you fight together you don’t need to fear. 

Basta magaling.  If only I can write here the whole story.  Kaya lang sayang, kulang ang space at baka antukin na kayo.

Hhhhaaayyy… basta magaling talaga Siya!!! Oo nga pala! fashion consultant ko rin si Lord.  hahahahaha!!! basta aliw ang mga kwento!!! :)

Labs tayo ni Lord!! Sobra-sobra!! He is the strength of our heart!! Pray lang ng pray at fight lang ng fight for Him!!!  I love you Lord!!!
