Oooooh ooooh, Your love is crazy!

For I am not ashamed of Him who saved me.
I'm in His Great Dance Flooooooor!
Hey Jesus! You make me crazier because of Your crazy love for me, my Lord.

I'm out of words how Jesus has forgiven me, how He has loved me (from the start though He knows that I will mess up) and how He wants me to be back in His loving arms. Aww.

It's too amazing that He who created the world, He who holds the universe would want me to enjoy His presence moment by moment.

My prayer: we will show Jesus in our lives.
To honor Him. I failed so many times
because I was doing it on my own.
Rely on the Lord.

He carried the shame for me. I carried His name but I put it to shame and that reflected on Him. But now, it became more real to me, that satan (not capital letter) has no sting over me. That God has won it all for me. And that I'm on the winning side--- Jesus!!

You carry us, carry us when the world gives way.

Since Passion, God showed me what freedom means. That God has given us the freedom to dance in His presence. Even David danced. I was always puzzled why do people have to jump and dance in worshiping God. When I saw how God is a party-throwing God (in the prodigal son) and not a cosmic kj (but with reverence, awe and fear of Jesus) I now I understand. I know, I'm somewhat slow in my growth hahaha. I feel like I just got saved. HAHAHA. Jesus is just so huge that He surprises you of who He is each and every day. <3

The joy of knowing Jesus, talking to Him, singing to Him, saying I love You to Him. Such a privilege, that we are enjoying the freedom to sing our lungs out to Him.

I always forget to take at least one picture. Hihi.
Surrender is not weakness but strength because it comes from Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, the One who raised from the dead.

I am His and He is mine. And He's all that I need.

My prayer for each of us is that we'll never lose sight of who should make us crazy. And I pray that situations, people, circumstance won't hinder our relationship with the Lord. I've made so many mistakes because I wanted to handle them because I always thought that I know better than God. Ennnnnk.WRONG. Mess up. But every mess can be a message for others not to anymore fall into the trap of satan. That we will always listen and obey to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. That the Holy Spirit will have the last say in our lives and not anybody else.

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow--not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. 
Romans 8:38

We don't need to impress anybody because God loves us as we are. No pretentions needed. He knows our hearts and desires. If those desires that I have won't be given by God, it would be totally fine (though it would hurt) because if I have Him, I have all I need.

May God break us to truly experience Him.




In His Pursuit,
Michelle M. Aquino <3

Back to Basics

This is how I look like most of the week. On my screen talking to people—- virtually. This quarantine season has changed my life- a bunch. It brought me back to reality- doing the basics. I practiced my calligraphy drills, I learned how to piano, helped in the chores more than ever, bought meds and groceries for the family, got sick with the government (thankfully, didn’t get subpoenaed), helped our neighbors and driver, guards and juliets at work, shared the gospel to a bike  boy whom I rode for consecutively, read, did some arts, cleaned the house for n number of times, worked out AND CLUNG ON TO JESUS. This season taught me that I have no good thing apatrt from Christ. And that good thing is only Christ. And I would not know that if I don’t surrender to His Lordship and His will. I would have bad dreams night after night, but I have to fight it off in the morning and walk with Jesus again. It is a conscious effort to guard what I think of and fix my gaze on the author and...

Short

In a short span of time that I got to know Tita has really impacted my life. I shall try to share specific things here so that I get to record how she has encouraged me. The only picture we got together.  I shall start with why the title is short. We were going to minister to a place where our mission trip team went a month prior my mom and I’s visit. We were walking and she made ayos my shorts after it was creased.  That was I think the first time I knew she cared.   I am usually jittery when meeting the mom of the man that I like. But with her, she made me feel comfortable. Pero at first, natakot din ako kasi I know na di ako umaarte like kung sino talaga ako, yun ang ipapakita ko. I don’t set my best foot forward because I know eventually, she would know me and she would know who I really am. I am very takot not to be accepted. Lalo na that is my fear— to not be liked by my future mother-in-law if the Lord wills. But on our vacation time, we got the news that she ...

Freedom

Grace. I don’t deserve it. This covid pandemic has somewhat hardened my heart. It has shown my worst. And I believe that this is what really is inside me which haven’t surfaced until now. My flaws were magnified and it has sounded an alarm that I need to work on myself. That because of the too many work that needs attention, I had set myself aside. Whil reading a book on emotionally healthy spirituality, it has shown me that I am no superwoman. That I cannot change the world. That I can only do so much. And God is after my being with Him more than doing things for Him. So that is what I am planning to do as this year closes. But before that, I would love to go back to what happened last July why I started this blog with one word. Birthdays have never been a big deal for me. I enjoy having my birthday with no one knowing about it except my family. Maybe because I didn’t want to expect. I grew up loving my birthdays because of my family. But, there came a point in our life where we strug...
