When Jesus Say Yes Nobody Can't Say No

I was really puzzled what to write about our c'ship! It was God who allowed us to be here and all I can say is praise Him! Yes, there were factors why they won but how can you reconcile the will of God versus the skill of the basketball gods?

I can still remember the time while I was sitting in a bench at our school just this basketball season which is the first term of this school year, I glared at our trophy keeping and I just prayed about us getting the championship this year. At the time, you can't really say that we'll win, I promise you! No one will bet on us even the Nationalians won't say we'll win this year's title. We just lost our superstar this year. Who'll carry us through? And I remembered an incident where I told my La Salle and UST friends that this season is ours. Not boasting but sort of yes haha, I don't know why I put my faith in what God impressed on my heart to pray for. When you believe and not doubt, you'll receive what you ask from God if it pleases Him and if it's His will. So, know His will. If we are His, we'll know His leading because the sheep knows the voice of his Shepherd.

To be honest, I don't believe we had the best line-up in UAAP (University Athletics Association of the Philippines) and until now that we have the best college hoops in the Philippines, I believe it is Jesus who brought us here. You can stop reading if you don't believe God exists. (((:

I'll go a bit far from where I was discussing. This is a bit personal and I trust you guys reading this blog that I'm accountable to the Lord and to a set of girls plus the whole world. HAHA. It's hard not to listen to the world, not to listen to satan and his lies. Why? Because most of the time, they're sugarcoated and you really have to take that tough decision to take the 100% truth and not the 90% truth and 10% lie.

I trust God about the future and I don't have to manipulate it. Should we end up together, it would be a miss to not have spent my first finals experience with him but I believe we should preserve those good times in God's time and way and not me initiating it or planning it. Whoever you are, I really would love to see concerts, movies, basketball, volleyball games with you and I'm sorry that I wasn't able to bring you earlier. Don't worry, I didn't get the rookie jitters in our game earlier. I've resolved with the Lord to be joyful whatever the result may be. God is good whether we win or lose. I'm not saying this because we won today but we didn't get the title for sixty years and I know the feeling of losing. If ever you're not the man, it's all the more that I should've not brought you with me. As Paul said in his letter to Timothy, he believes God will keep what he entrusted to Him until that day. That we have to finish the race God has set before us and those are our priorities. My shoutout to You!

As I wait, I won't listen to satan, prepare myself, grow in the Lord, pray, surrender, trust, obey and do His work. Until that day that He'll get me from where I am now and be joined to His will.

Thanks to all those who prayed with us to bag the c'ship! All glory and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ! <3
