Behind Every Writer

Behind every writer is a great writer.

Today, while navigating this blog site, I've noticed that it's been a year since I've started writing.
I remember the time when I wrote my first blog post. It was a Valentine letter to Someone very special.

I had a temporary writer's block. Thoughts were already there, but I couldn't get myself to begin to write.

So I asked help from a great writer whom I've known. She told me that writing is just like having a conversation with someone but in written form. And she gave me more encouraging words.

So far, I've posted 53 blog posts (including this one) and contributed an article blog in He Cares Mission, a non-profit organization.  That's because someone believed that I can write -- my sister.

In one of her blog posts, she wrote this to me...

"If I can compare our relationship, we are like the opposite ends of a seesaw, and God is our lever. Your weight on the other end of the pole is not a burden for me just as mine is never to yours. There are times when God allowed us some downfalls. That's why He created a seesaw with opposite poles so that when the other is down, the opposite would aid the other to meet halfway to a balance. And it is never impossible since God is at the center of it."

                                                                                                           Your other pole,
                                                                                           Kim

Thanks to this writer who believed and still believes that I can write.

Are you a writer? Do you have the gift to write? What's your story? 

Bless the world by your writings! =)

Live in gratitude.

P.S. My sister and I have the best Editor-In-Chief: God.

God’s Love is Like the Wind

He loves you not because you’re lovable. He loves because He is loving. - Bo Sanchez 

by Bo Sanchez 

God’s Love is like the wind. It’s constant. It’s always there. One hundred years ago, the wind was there. One thousand years ago, the wind was there. Ten thousand years ago, the wind was there. When the dinosaurs roamed the earth, the wind was already there.


You’re like that windmill. The windmill cannot change the wind. Nothing you do can ever change the direction of the wind. But the wind can change you. The wind is the wind. It’s older than you are. After you’re gone, it will still be there.


God’s love for you is eternal. It will flow towards you forever. All you have to do is receive that love.  All you have to do is accept the wind, flow according to its direction, and generate phenomenal power to serve humanity.


Or you could stubbornly resist the wind’s power and be utterly destroyed—not by the wind—but by your own stubbornness. In the same way, you could refuse God’s Love. You could refuse His forgiveness. You could refuse His blessings, His healing, His peace, His strength, His joy…  

Yesterday, He loved you. Today, He loves you. Tomorrow, He will love you. Nothing will change.  (Hebrews 13:8)

Joel Osteen: Inspirational Quotes

Focus on the greatness of God. - Joel Osteen

I've been listening to Joel Osteen's inspirational talks for a few days. He is also like my favorite preacher.(Do I need to mention Bro. Bo Sanchez's name here? hehe)

I love the simplicity of his preaching and his funny jokes too. And so, I wrote down some of the inspirational quotes that really struck me.

Below are my notes from Joel Osteen's talk.

Speak to Your Mountains:

-God knows what you are capable of.

-Average people have average problems. Ordinary people have ordinary challenges. But remember, you’re not average. You’re not ordinary. You are extraordinary. God breathed His life into you. You are exceptional, and exceptional people face exceptional difficulties. But the good news is we serve an exceptional God! 

-"I'm a big person with a big destiny. I'm a child of The-Most-Standout."

-Breathe in God's direction and everything will change.

-Stand strong and fight the good fight of faith.

-Focus on the greatness of God.

-Stop telling God how big your problems are, and start telling your problems how big your God is!

-"God supplies all of my needs in abundance. "

-"Greater is He that is in Me."

-Start the day in God's presence.

-Give God the first part of your day. Spend a quiet time with Him thanking Him for His goodness.

-In God's presence is fullness of joy


Living with Confidence:

-Start focusing on what you can become.

-"I'm a child of the most high God."

-Living with confidence means that we never lose our poise.


Display Your Joy. Smile!:

-You can't change people.

-You are responsible for your own happiness.

-Keep your joy.

-God has given us the power to stay calm in times of adversity.

-Quit feeding wrong emotions.

-"God is directing our steps."

-When somebody does you wrong, you have to ask yourself, "Is this worth giving up my joy over?"

-When people see you, what kind of message are they getting? We need to pay attention to what messages that we are sending out.

-Learn to smile by faith.



Live in gratitude.
