Wedding Garter

I really hate it. I'm still not over it. I won the singles match not for a lawn tennis game but for this garter. I never joined those games since I just got into the right age of that "oldness". Fine,'twas my fault to join when they called my name. Being sports. The irony. I love sports but I never enjoyed being sports. I am the asar-talo of any game. Translation? Just google it.

I made a face to the host when I lost because I won. It's not because I didn't want the guy but just because I wanted to have my future husband my firsts of everything. Until, I realized that I hated this wedding garter because of that but I again thought of my other compromises that doesn't please God and in a way I didn't get angry with myself which I should have.

My takehome of this is to do what I speak. In every utterances of my mouth must be my actions. When I say don't complain, I should not complain myself as well. It's easier to say things than to do it. That must be one of my resolutions this year. Aside from closing tabs that I'm not using anymore though it breaks my heart to close them and deleting stuffs from my desktop that are cluttering my view of what the wallpaper says. This is how it looks like now. On December 31, 2014, I'll post the cleaner one. HAHA. Kidding. I should not just do things from start and end but it must be consistent. Consistency is the key. Even in making those six-packs I'm dreaming of. (((: I am privileged to be accountable online, to you guys. That this blog isn't about me but about the grace that God freely gives us if we will just ask Him to empower us to overcome the things in our lives that doesn't please Him.

In His Pursuit,

2021 Here We Are

I can compare my year with the Philippine Stock Exchange Index 2020. And I reallyjust want to get those candles up by being intimate with my relationship with Jesus.  I actually do not know if it is just me or I really matured this year. FINALLY MY PREFRONTAL CORTEX GOT DEVELOPED. Financially supporting my family even though they did not ask for it, managing the household while working online and battling my own life. I have actually shared some of those things in this blog this year. And as we fold the last day of this year, I just want to say that I am thankful to my King Jesus. If it haven’t been by Your grace, I do not know where I would be.  Salute to You, My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 2021 is Yours. I am all Yours.  Michelle Aquino Because I do not know what photo to share, would love to share this letter from my mom in our summit 2019.

Consistency

  This would be how I would look like if asked what I would say to my younger self. Adding, I hope you obey God’s no consistently because it won’t get any easy as you get older.  Sometimes, because we know that God is Gracious, we would already spend our lives in the way we want it to go knowing that God forgives and He rescues. But as what we have been repeating in this blog, we cannot escape the unnecessary pains that we could have missed if we just chose to yield to the Holy Spirit’s leading. Consistency in your love for Jesus is difficult. A one-time high or a seasonal-high in basketball won’t give you the championship. It will just win you games but the goal is to not just win games, the goal is your whole self experiencing Christ and being transformed into His image.  I learned about myself that whenever I feel like I’ve had enough of God for the day, I would stop being in His presence and will just do my thing. I make Him a to-do list that after talking to Him for ...

Insect Bite

It's been a while since I tried writing here. Been to a mission trip and now facing the reality of my vow to the Lord at the start of this year. Compared to last year, my character has been under refinery this past few months. I felt like I've arrived and so pride cost me and has put shame on my Savior and Lord.  Early this year, I wanted to make my year clear from any idol and so vowed to the Lord to follow and love Him alone, literally, no other man. No adultery.  Balance of everything. I've been praying about this for two years now and I always get my Lord down because of me not standing my ground. When my heart broke late this year, I went to my knees and was reminded by what I told the Lord early this year. I broke His heart again. I don't want to hurt Him again and I know that I should die to myself and live for Him alone. So, I resolved with the Lord to wait for him for another year, 2017 for Jesus. It hurts but if I trust Him that He will bring...
