Today we celebrate Mother’s day. A day to thank God for giving us a loving, kind, understanding mother. A day to give thanks to our mother for their prayer… as i share to you the video below, may we be able to realize the love that our mother has been giving us. That we may realize that because of our Mother’s Prayer and God’s love and mercy we received Jesus as our Saviour and we continue to grow spiritually.
To my mom, MAMA PAZ, my mother in law NANAY LHEEN, to my aunt MEME, my ate WENG, to my sister-in-laws GRACE, ATE NENE and JOANNE, to my friends and relatives who are mothers and to all the Mother’s out there HAPPY MOTHER’s DAY!!! WE LOVE U!!!
After she woke up, a woman told her husband, "I just dreamed that you gave me a pearl necklace for Valentine’s day. What do you think it means?"
"You’ll know on Valentine’s Day." he said.
On Valentine’s Day, the man came home with a small package and gave it to his wife. Delighted, she opened it – to find a book entitled….
"The Meaning Of Dreams."
…be contented with what he has to offer and the love you share with one another. Be grateful for the Love of God that we receive everyday thru the people around us. Show them how much you care and make them realize that God loves them too.
“We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.” – 2 Thessalonians 1:3
Let us not waste time. Enjoy the goodness of God in your life everyday, giving glory to him through your words, deeds and thoughts. I have nothing to promise for the coming year, I just want to do things for the glory of God. May He guide us always in every decision we make… I want to praise you Lord with All I am. Thank You Father for your love.
Mark 12:29-30 (New International Version)
29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[b]

Jesus is better than Santa Claus…
Santa lives at the North Pole… JESUS is everywhere.
Santa rides in a sleigh… JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.
Santa comes but once a year… JESUS is an ever present help.
Santa fills your stockings with goodies… JESUS supplies all your needs.
Santa comes down your chimney uninvited… JESUS stands at your door and knocks, and then enters your heart when invited.
You have to wait in line to see Santa… JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.
Santa lets you sit on his lap… JESUS lets you rest in His arms.
Santa doesn’t know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, what’s your name?”… JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knows our history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads.
Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly… JESUS has a heart full of love.
All Santa can offer is HO HO HO… JESUS offers health, help and hope.
Santa says "You better not cry"… JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you."
Santa’s little helpers make toys… JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions.
Santa may make you chuckle but… JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.
While Santa puts gifts under your tree… JESUS became our gift and died on a tree.
It’s obvious there is really no comparison. We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about. We need to put Christ back in CHRISTmas. Jesus is still the reason for the season. Yes, Jesus is better, he is even better than Santa Claus.
As what was mentioned above…there is really no comparison between Jesus and Santa Claus. It’s just that many people forget why we remember Christmas and what it’s all about.
It should actually be CHRIST-must. “Christ-must be the center of our lives”. That is why we should always remember to celebrate Christ-must everyday…Christ-must be the center of our lives everyday. Jesus Christ is not just better than Santa Claus or any other being…Jesus Christ is the best for He is the Son of the Living God. His love for us is incomparable.Everything will pass but the love of God will remain.
“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” – Hebrew 13:8

I just want to share you some slides where we should have an expectant faith, Please be informed that some of the slides contains tagalog words. Pictures are captured from the net so if you own the pictures and you want it to be taken off the slides please let us know. God bless You all.
I would like to share to you the verses that i chose for me and my husband. This serves as my special gift for him for our 10th year anniversary and i am so glad he liked it. I sent this to him on our 10th year anniversary as husband and wife last November 21, 2009. He told me it would be nice if i will share them with you…so here goes…
10 Bible Verses for YOU and ME
1. Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,who have been called according to his purpose.
This verse always reminds me of you and how God touched your heart and life thru this verse. You always remind me of this whenever we face problems and difficulties in our life.
2. Psalm 55:22
Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.
Since I know your favorite verse, you should know mine, too. This is the first verse that I have always loved. Since I easily give up on things and most of the time I find it hard to solve things my way, I want to remind myself that I should entrust everything to God because with Him nothing is impossible.
3. John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
This the first verse that Micaella and Kyle memorized … and I believe this is also important for us because this reminds us of the love of God for us that He wanted us to be with Him in eternal life.
4. Ephesians 5:21
Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
As husband and wife this will truly help us to love each other with honor and respect.
5. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
This will remind us of what LOVE is really about
LOVE- Leads us to the Light by following the way of Jesus Christ,
LOVE – Overflows when you are willing to Offer your life for Others
LOVE – Very much brings joy, hope and faith for those who love God
LOVE – Endures forever like the Everlasting love of God for Everyone
6. 2 Corinthians 9:13-15
13Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, men will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else. 14And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. 15Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
I thank God for this gift that he has given us. Let us continue to help others by sharing what we have and helping those in need whichever way we can.
7. Galatians 5:22-23
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
The fruits of the Holy Spirit which remind us to be watchful of our actions… wag malaglag ang bunga!
8.Hebrew 6:12
12We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.
This will remind me to be enthusiastic in doing things and always remember that in everything I do , I do it for the glory of God. Always remind me of this verse lakay ha.
9. Joshua 24:15 But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."
Although there are times when I am about to give up on serving the Lord please remind me of this verse. I would really love to teach our kids about the word of God, but please help me, I also want them to be servants of God.
10. Hebrews 13:5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Neverwill I leave you; neverwill I forsake you."
This will remind us that God will never leave us in our every endeavor. He will always be there especially in times of trouble. Also reminds us to be thankful and contented with our blessings especially to be contented with one another.
YOU ARE GOD’S PRECIOUS GIFT TO ME, TO OUR KIDS, OUR FAMILY AND THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU…I LOVE YOU LAKAY ! HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! I love you with the love of God. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER! MMMMWAAAAAH…TTTSSSSSUUUUPPPP…I LOVE U!
Sometimes we overlook the goodness of God in our lives. We ponder on things that make us sad, not being able to see the good things that are happening around us .
The problems we face everyday, whether it be financial , emotional, physical, spiritual, make us forget that there are many things that can remind us that we are special to God our Father…
Everytime we face such trials or difficulties in our lives, let us always remember that there are so many other things that God gave to us which make us important. When we think of our blessings God provided for us, our family, our kids, the people around us who love and care for us, the friends we seldom see, the physical well being, and most importantly, that spiritual gifts that He gives us as we grow in serving, knowing, praising, loving God with all our heart and mind.
Our failures often times rob us of our joy. Don’t let thing happen. Let the Spirit of God be upon us always thru His words. Let us sing praises to Him in the midst of problems, failures, temptations and difficulties.
”A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.” –Proverbs 17:22 (NLT)
We will be victorious if we let God enter into our hearts and lives. God bless you all!
One day, I woke early in the morning to watch the sunrise. Ah the beauty of God’s creation is beyond description. As I watched, I praised God for His beautiful work. As I sat there, I felt the Lord’s presence with me.
He asked me, "Do you love me?"
I answered, "Of course, God! You are my Lord and Saviour!"
Then He asked, "If you were physically handicapped, would you still love me?"
I was perplexed. I looked down upon my arms, legs and the rest of my body and wondered how many things I wouldn’t; be able to do, the things that I took for granted.
And I answered, "It would be tough Lord, but I would still love You."
