a walk with him..

"The universe only makes sense when we have someone to share our feelings with." -Paulo Coelho

The street lights are extinguished, I'm a bit afraid of the absence of light.
I found refuge on something that's holding my hand. I cannot fathom the face.

It was the first time he had appeared in my dreamland. By the way he held my hand,  

I know I was loved.

As we traverse an inconceivable road, I felt another hand on my left side.
Though it's pointless to say that the one on my right hand took the greatest
share. I barely recognize his face. We can barely utter words. 

All I know is that his touch is enough to say it all.
I don't know where the source of courage came from,
but I drew close towards him. He felt so close. He felt so real.

My unconscious mind returned to reality. It was only 30mins that I dozed off.
If having a nightmare means holding him again, I guess I'll never be afraid closing my eyes again.
Because it was a beautiful nightmare.  ❤

Happiness Exercise

"When you focus on the blessings - no matter how small - more blessings will come." - Bo Sanchez

Yesterday, I just finished reading another book while on my way to St. Francis

to attend the Roots Program(http://lightfam.com/roots/).

It's another transformational book of Bo Sanchez entitled, "How Your Words Change Your World". I flipped  the last few pages & read the 31 faith declarations with joy & conviction that something good will happen to me.

The 3rd session of the talk was about biblical inerrancy & redemption.

One of the speakers, a priest, introduced a wonderful excercise.

I named it "Happiness Exercise".

He said to write down 3 good things that happened to you before you go to sleep every night.

Those 3 things shouldn't be the same on the following day. At the end of the week,

before you go to mass, you should have listed 18 good things. That's God's grace.

This is a good way for us to appreciate small blessings. So instead of focusing on the

bad things that happened to you, why not try doing this exercise?

Just like what my mentor said,"What you focus on, grows".

Last night, in my journal, i wrote the ff.

1. dinner @ Bonchon Chicken

2. received free Companion book & a cd(compilation of KCon videos) 

3. learnings from the speakers of the Roots Program (*now i feel more excited to go to mass) 

Keep on seeing the blessings that overflow. Have a fantastic happiness-excercise! =)

God Provides

“Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find;

knock, and the door will be opened to you.” – Luke 11:9

This is one of my favorite verses in the bible and I read it again

this morning in Didache. What a comforting promise from our loving God!

Aside from this verse, I was blessed by what our security guard

in the office told me. His name is Kuya Angelito and he's about my father's age.

He's also a regular attendee of The Feast.

I mentioned to him my Saturday volunteering service in a foundation and the conflict of my Saturday work.  

After hearing what I said, he picked a book that he's currently reading,

entitled "God Provides", and read this line..

"Everything is possible, we are all powerful! But only if we have faith."

Kuya also added, "Hanapin mo ang saya sa puso mo. Kahit ano man ang  desisyon mo, sasamahan ka Nya".

I went back to my workplace & thanked God for his wonderful message.

Indeed, God provides. Always. =)
