Father, strengthen me when things are difficult…
Father, strengthen me when things are difficult… I was watching Fr. Mike Schmitz video (https://www.facebook.com/AscensionPress/posts/10160029540150832) and it hit me hard that God didn’t promise us a rose garden free of pain and thorns. Jesus said: If you want to be my disciple you have to DENY YOURSELF, TAKE UP THE CROSS AND FOLLOW ME. Then our Servant General Tito Frank Padilla’s line during one of our anniversary videos re-echoed – We have to run to Jesus even if it will LEAD US TO THE CROSS. Frustrations, disappointments, sadness, depression – everyone goes through this – but His invitation is please don’t be disappointed with God. Take heart, I have overcome…

Unanswered Yet?
Unanswered yet? The prayer your lips have pleaded In agony of heart these many years? Does faith begin to fail, is hope departing, And think you all in vain those falling tears? Say not the Father hath not heard your prayer; You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere. Unanswered yet? Though when you first presented This one petition at the Father’s throne, It seemed you could not wait the time of asking, So urgent was your heart to make it known. Though years have passed since then, do not despair; The Lord will answer you, sometime, somewhere. Unanswered yet? But you are not unheeded; The promises of God forever stand;…

His Generosity ~ Matthew 20:1-16
Whenever I hear this being read in the Sunday or daily Gospel readings, this brings me back to 2009/2010 when I fell into the evil trap of being envious. If you have read this bible verse, you’d know that in this story, the landowner was hiring different people in different timing and yet have given all the same wage at the end of the day. So some of those who worked from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm called “foul” comparing themeselves to those who started working at 4:00 pm and yet get the full wage at the end of the day. True, we all go through this situation in…

Just an OPINION – Stay C-H-A-R!
Just an opinion… I am no expert to this, but I just thought of giving my 1-cent opinion on this matter. As we all collectively collaborate and work to face the challenges brought by the Coronavirus, with the authorities looking at all possibilities… I just thought of expressing my opinion. Gusto ko magreply sa mga tao nga way laing gihimo pero reklamo ra. Pero diri na lang ko sa blog nako kay for sure gamay ra ang mu basa… haha dili ko ganahan makig-lalis… Grrrrr! Anyway – – – What do we know so far? COVID-19 is currently considered as PANDEMIC – meaning a world-wide health emergency crisis. Counties and…

Mantle of Protection 26102019
A couple of weeks back, you’d probably notice this FB status… A few extended their concerns asking what happened and if we’re okay. Yes we are. Praise God! I know, either you don’t care or it’s not your concern, but I opt to share this story to my readers and at the same time use this opportunity to release emotional and mental chaos around my head. Right after what happened, I can hear the loud screeching sound of our bus. Right after what happened, I felt an abnormal pain at the back of my head down to my shoulders… I guess these were traumas. So, here’s what happened. We left…
