The Narrow Path

Make me a blessing, make me a blessing
Out of my life may Jesus shine
Make me a blessing, O Saviour I pray,
Make me a blessing to someone today.

=================================

It's hard to walk the narrow path.

But He's been persistent in making me walk that way

Because He is the only way

That I can be happy and fulfilled.

Things I Learned Over The Long Weekend

That many people don’t know how it is to be forgiven – it constitutes repentance, meaning, you won’t do the things you used to do anymore. Funny how not many people realize this, considering the fact that we allot time EVERY YEAR to remember the price God freely paid to save us: His only Son, Jesus Christ.

That forgiving someone is so hard to do, but it’s the only way to get rid of one’s emotional baggages, and thus travel light.

That letting go and giving up your life to God’s will is the hardest thing to do, but the most fulfilling as well.

That being alone (especially for me) in the stillness of life in long pockets of time during the day, spent in quiet prayer, praise, thanksgiving to the Lord and reflection on His words, is the ultimate nourishment of one’s soul.

That in being alone, I realize that I am much, much loved by the people who matter most to me.

That being busy doing worthwhile things is a lot better than moping around, thinking about something that you couldn’t change.

That children’s laughter can always, always make me smile.

That you have only one option: WAIT. Until God delivers you His promises to you or, for God to deliver you out of the mess you’ve gotten yourself into. (from Michelle McKinney Hammond)

I’ve kept my silence for far too long. Now’s MY TIME.



I have a resolution which I jokingly told Quacks I’d apply to my life: whenever I come across a girl whom I’ve met but I can’t remember her name, I WILL CALL HER BECKY. Why Becky? It’s such a cute, affectionate name, and I already have an explanation for using that name or method. It reminds me of Princess Sarah’s maid and bestfriend.

Funny Anecdote: The group was asking for prayer requests from us. The usual answers were given: work and family. When someone asked, "Love life?..." all of us reacted the same way:

(Making a face): "Wag na muna..."
Kinda reminds me of the part at weddings wherein the bride throws her bouquet. All the girl make a mad dash to AVOID catching it at all costs. Oh yeah. ÜÜÜ

I Have A Question

Anong apelyido ni “Beast”?

E di “Kwit”…

“Beast Kwit”…hehehe! Mamatay ka sa ka-cornyhan! Wahahahaha ÜÜÜ

Larry: Wala kang magawa no?
Josh: Anong nakain mo?
Rosei: Pot* ang corny!
Jody: Nakakainis yung sinend mo sa text (I can just imagine her pout…hahaha)
Erick: Ang corny nga!
Sir Jun: (immediately scrunched up his face and turned away from me as I dissolved into giggles) … epal…dapat nilagyan mo sa dulo ng “kailangan pa bang i-memorize ‘yan?”
Celeste: (after snickering) Hay nako E---- gutom lang yan…kumain ka na… (eh at least bumenta sa iyo hahaha)
Sir Jan: (Siyempre hindi niya na-gets agad kahit na dineliver ko na yung punchline!) …

Hay. Ang babaw ng kaligayahan ko, no?
