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 him on His time and way. 

Develop my self, learn and experience new things.
Be humble.
Develop new relationships and strengthen old friendships.
Enjoy singlehood before the sun sets and face a new day.
May I live for the Lord's vision for me alone. If that man doesn't wait for me to be complete in Him alone, I trust the Lord that He knows best. I surrender. 

Today, I got bitten by insects at home after praying. I have this pillow under our study table and would kneel in that pillow and pray but after I prayed, I got red hands and legs. I was so hurt but I know that my time with the Lord is better than the bites though it still hurts until now. 

Dear God, I pray that I would enjoy You more in my life and make the most out of my time of being single and all my life to You laser-focused. May I exemplify a life glorifying and pleasing to You my Lover and Friend. You are my Greatest and Only Reward. Lord, may I have You forever. I am Yours.

In Your Pursuit,
Michelle Manansala Aquino

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.

Palindrome

Bakit ka ba fearful? A palindrome is s omething that when you put it backwards will give you the same result. The longest palindrome word in existence is  tattarrattat according to google which is  a chemical term meaning to remove tartrates. Been drafting this since last week but the original draft was years ago. I never got the chance to finish  it. And I pray that tonight, I get to finish what I started. I am past way my bed time or actually no, because I have been watching the world cup up until 3am last night and 5am the other night. Lakas. In english, strong 😂✌🏽💪🏽. Please excuse me for my being informal with my emojis.  On a serious note, I really do not know where tonight’s blog is going to end up. I would at times just think of something to write about when I am not ready to write and now that I am in front of my phone typing, I have nothing to say. What a life. I just thought tonight while watching the basketball brawl in FIBA World Cup Qua...

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 ...
