No cap

 Been watching the NBA since the playoffs kaseee I have been out of it since last year. I have always loved basketball. Maiinis pa talaga ako when people make fun of it cause I enjoy being serious about my beloved sports. I even feel sepanx from my ball and the court kasi wala naman kaming court sa loob ng bahay and we are on quarantine. I should obey the government’s desire to contain this virus by doing our small part that collectively is a big contribution.

A lackluster living is a mediocre life. Same way with our walk with Jesus— we sleep on one defensive stance or take for granted one possession can cost us the win. 

Habits can either make us or break us. How we use our time now can affect our destination. So, how are we in terms of investing for the eternal than the temporal?

We have to continue to grow. The moment we feel we arrived is the moment we fall. As I watch the NBA finals, I was thinking about how the veterans feel about the 20 year olds that they are going against. Pride can easily come and that is the same way I feel when there are younger people better than me. I have a chip on my shoulder.

This pandemic has been pruning me as I said on my previous blog. WE HAVE TO WAIT, no cap. As I was peeling my face this week, which takes three days to be better, I was so impatient that in the first day that I saw how bad my skin looks like (which will definitely happen), I tried to peel it on my own but ended up hurting myself and needed another day to peel off completely after it clotted. Truly, we have to know the process and the timing. And not to be influenced by the people’s expectations. I did that because my mom criticized my face. Wanted to please her but ended up needing more time for my face to heal. I have seen how the Miami Heat have lived who they are and just compete without trying to please what other people want for them to do. After all, they have no reaponsibility of pleasing people.

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 ...

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 ...
