Life's Challenges:
Despite
all the pill-popping, bathroom trips, and leg and muscle cramps,
I am just
grateful to still enjoy every day’s gifts: of life, of family and friends, and
of being able to witness God's greatness. Besides, comparing my illnesses with
St. Porphyrios, mine are nothing.
Often times, we are so bogged down by the busy
lifestyle that we forget the true essence of love:
1. an expression of love
2. a loving gesture
3. a forgiving attitude
Discernment and struggle are necessary to distinguish between good and
apparently good.
God in my Life and my Role :
I know You are near.
Plasma
in the Sky: A
spectacular phenomenon to prove that God is in our midst.
Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with
me.
Why
can't we be like the birds that sing praises to God unceasingly?
Discovering the beauty of God's creation is an
exercise we can do everyday.
It's so inspiring.

Experiences:
Everyday,
I find some things that take my breath away. I call them my W.o.W.s (World of
Wonder)
Knowing and having Christ in my life is a wonderful
experience.
As a high school friend described, "The feeling is so great. It's like bursting inside."

Over
the past couple of days, I was able to capture the beauty of floral colors.
They speak of simplicity, contentment, and eagerness to share and give.
Likewise, the magnificence of the tree calls my attention. It shows strength, character, patience, and resiliency.

Every person I meet and any situation I'm in is an
opportunity to witness God's presence in my life.
On Prayers:
When
God answers our prayers, He does it in a gentle and loving way.
When
God answers prayers, Yes, He does in a powerful way.
We need
to pray for each other.

I've learned so much! It’s heaven on earth.

Love at a
Different Level
There's not a single
day that you would not call to tell me about your day, There's not a single day
that you wouldn't ask about what I think, how I feel. There' s not a single day
that you wouldn't do the small little things...that in reality, are huge favors
granted.
It's not about the roses or the box of
sugar treats.
It's about the way you speak the
unspoken words, for us to only keep.
It's about the firm embrace that we
need the most in good times, in the not so good ones.
It's about the care and our
commitment...to love.
Our love is our guide. Our Faith, with God on our side will
always help us, as we weather the storms, the challenges. Our confidence in
each other will continue to help us face the dragons
Our triumphs, we shall exult.
We shall offer them back to the Lord.
Your love is a ray of sunshine that always warms my heart.
My love that I humbly give to you and yours that you give to
me, let us continue to kindle them.
The love that we had in the beginning is here to stay,
stronger, purer, and more meaningful...
In another form... Agape.
