How GREAT is our GOD

This was sick mahn! It's crazy!! In my awe, I can't even move to get my camera to record. I can't even say any word, even wow. I just marveled on what more does God know and what more I don't know. How frail I am. The only thing I know back then was that, I was very embarrassed. If the whales, the stars are worshiping God, how much more me. I was telling myself, Michelle, you're not worthy to be loved by Jesus but He did by dying on the cross just to reach you and what do you do? You hurt Him, You reject Him, You disobey Him and You break His heart! And still, He loves you the same. What a reminder it was!

This was such a perspective-changing for me. How on earth will I know what's best for me if I, myself doesn't perceive everything the way God does, He is God. Period.

I now understand as well what the pastors are saying that it doesn't matter if you're not in tune as long as you're singing to the Lord in Spirit and in Truth.

I was so ashamed that there were many times that I tell God, I know more than You do, I'm sorry, Lord. Thanks for bringing me come to my senses.

<3,
Michelle

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...
