fighting!
see this old bike? it was a present from my father. i loved this bike so much but throughout the years with continued use, it got rusty and all. i didn't know how to take care of it.
not caring for it was one of my regrets but then from this i had a realization, the bike served its purpose which is, of course, to give me entertainment and to train me balance, etc etc. i thought, "wow, it really did its job, didn't it? so it kind of like had a nice stay here on earth (not like they have souls or anything)."
what i mean is i want to also achieve my purpose in this life. and since i know of it already, i'm gonna work hard till i fulfill it. so that when i'll be old just like my bike here i wouldn't be doing anything except to rest and look back at what i did with my life without regrets.
as a person in the Bible said, "I have fought the good fight.."
I want to be able to say that too.
ciao. :)

no title
"a negative mindset sees no color." (disclaimer: i do not own this)
it's really true isn't it. maybe that's why all those emotional people tend to have black as their primary motif everyday. its because they can't see the color life gives to them. black isn't a color.
i want to be able to help those people. i really am genuinely concerned and curious as to why and what turned them into like lifeless robots. it's really something worrying to see. everytime i look at them i can't help but feel sad also.
is it exaggeration? to say that i feel their sadness? i pray not. one must be happy to live this in this world.
they need friends and i pray that they find them and that they find God.
ciao.

a prophesy. (hey! i'm serious)
i was given a very nice and difficult responsibility by Him.
He wanted me to talk about FORGIVENESS. Great! Of all things He had to choose that one. How could I? I wasn't even prepared to forgive myself.
He said I would go to various foreign countries and lead them to forgiveness.
Sigh.
How would it be possible anyway? I'm taking up BS Accountancy and I was supposed to go to a lot of foreign countries.
I wish You wouldn't be so vague. You know that my mind couldn't comprehend Your ways.
Show me signs...

a new chapter.
hi there. it's been a long time.
i didn't really know what to write these past few days because all of the things that happened to me lately were kind of trivial. but then, a prayer was answered! my monotone life was gonna be broken by a youth camp held by the church of my friend and classmate.
april 20-23. those days would never be forgotten. ever.
from the start, He wanted me to concentrate on Him. know what He did? He shut my phone. i couldn't get it to restart. and so. my phone's gone. no music, no textin. nothing left to do but to concentrate on the whole youth camp. this happened when we arrived at the location. it was a school.
April 20, evening: this night was kind of the opening night. there was a speaker, Sally Serratto i guess was her name. she came all the way from california to be able to speak to us. it was nice. she talked about Him and how her grandson also taught her lessons. she was a really nice lady.
April 21,morning: now this day was a little more exciting. our speaker for that day Ma'am Marybeth Barcoso was such a lively and invigorating person that I can't seem to get sleepy even if i wanted to. she talked fervently about her experiences and how she had been spreading the Good News. she had something in her that made you want to concentrate on her. maybe because she kind of reminds me of myself. her session had been one of the best throughout the youth camp.
April 21, afternoon: this time around we had a different speaker. his name they said was Reverend Howard Barnes. it was an afternoon and i kind of felt sleepy so i didn't kind of listen wholeheartedly to what he was saying. not to mention that we were in the back portion of the room. oh! i forgot to tell you that before the speaker started the session, we were grouped. there were eight groups all in all and i belonged to group seven! i was their secretary and i'm mighty proud of it. :D it was also very nice that we had snacks every morning and afternoon. we were very well taken care of.
April 21, evening: after we had our dinners, we proceeded to the session hall. reverend howard barnes was coming back they said. he carried with him what the said was called the schoffar horn (i dunno if the spelling is correct). he said that the horn was the same horn that they blew when the walls of jericho crumbled. (you know, in the old testament of the bible). we were kind of awed because he possessed such an important thing. he also said that when he would blow the horn, the Holy Spirit would come to that place. and so, he talked again and afterwards he displayed the awesome power of the Holy Spirit.
he laid hands on a person and that person would suddenly fall or drop to the ground. we were amazed! honestly, that time i kind of felt terrified. more so when they started calling for those who wanted to feel the Holy Spirit. we were at the back and they wanted that the people in the back would be the ones to go first. i was really, really afraid. i kept on thinking, "what if i did not fall? would they be dismayed? or would they think that i was no child of God?" those thoughts kept recurring in the back of my mind that was why i did not try to fall in line. but then my friend wanted to and so i conceded.
i was very nervous and when it was my time i just kept my eyes wide open. i forgot that you had to be really sincere with it to feel the presence so i started to close my eyes and THERE! i felt it within me. it was some kind of a force that pushed me to sit on the floor. when i got up, my hands were shaking really bad. it was really real. i went to bed with that in mind. the Holy Spirit.
April 22, morning: at four in the morning we had our "devotion in motion". it was really fun and i was starting to like the youth camp. there were also different kind of activities for us and we kind of had to earn points because on the last day they would be announcing the group winners. this morning mam beth came back and we were all very happy. she talked about finding our true identities. it was really fun!
April 22,afternoon: all i can remember is we had snacks and late that afternoon, we were baptized. yay~!!
April 22, evening: that evening we had (As usual) praise and worship and then we presented our talents. first was the song solo and for our group, Ross Verly Refugio sang "amazing love". she was so cute. and then next was the extortion or preaching. our candidate was (kuya) Russel Tanaga (?). he kind of got nervous but he did well considering that he was kind of not used to it. and then next was the roleplay! i was very proud of my groumates then because they didn't get shy and they did their best. on the first day kasi, they were very nervous and they rarely talked. but then on the roleplay....*sniff* i was really happy for them!
April 23, last day, morning: we gave our personal testimonies as to how the camp was. for the dipolog church, kuya christian and i were asked to talk. i spoke in english because we had foreigner visitors and so that they could understand too.
April 23, afternoon: it was time to pack. *sigh* i really didn't want to leave. but then i had to. i had a mission! and that mission is to spread HIS WORD. so that all of us could get to heaven! :D that afternoon also i just got a really really nice encourager from none other than mam beth herself. she asked marigold if (pointing at me) i was her classmate. marigold told her that we've been classmates since gradeschool.. and then she faced me and told me, "you are a very good communicator. you are intellectual. are you a scholar?" i told her, "yes,i'm a scholar at the college i'm attending to." and she said,"yes, i can tell. keep up the good work and continue to grow in God."
i was so very flattered by what she said but then i realized i had to give back all praise and glory to the One who made me and the One who did those things for me. it is Him that they should truly praise because without Him i wouldn't have been able to say those words.
i pray that i continue to grow in Him. those days i will never, ever forget. :D
