Your New Beginning has begun!


 Ecclesiastes 3:11 “God has made everything fit beautifully in its appropriate time, but he has also placed ignorance in the human heart so that people cannot discover what God has ordained from the beginning to the end of their lives”.

New Beginnings: We often see these in wedding ads and for us single people, it brings a leap in our hearts whenever we see this. Every single lady I know has her own wedding dream. If this is about to take place, would we just wait for “THE DAY”? Of course NOT! We would definitely plan for it. So think about it, if there is something MAJOR that you want to happen in your life, would you not plan for it?

We plan simply because we want to succeed. We never plan to fail, but why does plan fail sometimes? We surely have a lot of questions in mind, but in the end of it all there is just one answer, because God’s plan for our lives always prevails. Failure is not God's set-back for us, but rather a DETOUR for the SUCCESS He had promised. In the famous verse of Jeremiah, God said that He certainly knows the plans He have for us, to prosper and not to harm us, to give us a FUTURE full of HOPE. So, how does New Beginnings got something to do with our failed plans? Actually there is, because every failed plan only has one road to take next, and that is to have NEW BEGINNINGS.


2012 has passed, and there are probably a lot of failed plans but what God has instilled in our hearts is that we have a lot of things to start over. If a season closed for 2012, we have the privilege to begin and get on our feet in the YEAR 2013.
Personally, the journey of the past year has been a roller coaster ride. Major Up and Down turns where it’s hard for me to catch breath. Major life changing decisions that were so out of what I have imagined. But after all that has happened, God was faithful that I was able to get on my feet again and see the sunrise. He did not close the season for me without my capacity to smile once again.


Life is like a beautiful puzzle creation, there will be times that we are forming a part of the BIG PICTURE where we become inspired and wishing things would just last like the way they are now. But then, there will be pieces that we may find odd in the beginning, we look at what’s happening and we tell ourselves it doesn't make sense at all. But we would be reminded that there is a blue print that God has finished long before we were born and those odd pieces makes the whole picture complete. But for its completion, we have to experience different puzzle pieces. It’s His purpose to make things mysterious and undiscovered with our human eyes.



If there are two words to describe what I have learned in 2012, it’s TRUST and SURRENDER. Let everything happen in God’s time, trust that He has the finished product of the beautiful life He has created for you and surrender all that is in you. It is when you truly surrender, God will surprise of what He can do in your life, and it’s far more than what you can imagine. He will not just awaken your dreams; He will even materialize the secret desires of your heart. TODAY, your NEW BEGINNING has begun!

Open the Doors and Be blessed!



When God wants to bless you, He sends a person in your life.
When the devil wants to destroy you, he sends a person in your life.How can we tell the difference? By knowing your people connections.

Your success depends on the quality of people you are connected to, and there are two types of people you'll come in contact with throughout your lifetime:

  1) Those who add and multiply, making you more than you are;  
  2) And those who subtract and divide, thereby devaluing you.

Never allow people into your life without knowing their agenda.  
Find out where they came from and why they want to be connected to you.
When a person is in your life and your life is declining, they are not a God connection!
A healthy connection will protect your self-worth even when you're experiencing a season of pain
or struggling with a failure in your life.
 
 
A true God connection will never abandon his assignment until you reach your full potential! Stay Blessed & have an Awesome God inspiring week .

Father in the name of Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God, I pray you open doors for the person who reads this as well as those who will share this blog too. Only you can open doors no man can close and for that we honor you today.
I seal this prayer in Jesus 'name, Amen!!!
  
If you need God to open a door, pray this prayer.  Believe in your heart and you shall receive it.
I need a door opened...

7 days of Reflection- Day 3 "Who Do You Want to Bless?"


“Mano Po!” This sentence gives a smile in my heart. I remember how our Lolos and Lolas trained us to be respectful. But you know what? This practice actually started during the Old Testament where the first sons ask the blessing of their Father for a good future, and then the Father will put his hands upon the head of his Child. This is very important in the biblical times that Isaac deceived his father to be his older brother Isau just to get the blessing from his Father.

Today God reminded me that He is the same God YESTERDAY, TODAY and TOMORROW, but what happened to the tradition He allowed to happen ages ago? Blessing people my friends do not fade through time. Probably it was our faith that faded through time.

As the eldest child in the family of seven, I see to it that I still seek for the blessing of my parents and also seek it from the elders whom I live with. And in my case, I give blessing to my god sons and daughters whenever they do the act of mano, I place my hands over their heads and mention a little prayer of blessing for them.

You too can bless people! Start with your children, if you’re still single with your siblings, your family and your friends. In this third day of my reflection week, God tells me to bless my enemies and those people I feel it’s difficult for me to be with. How about you? Whom do you want to bless?

Declaring Your Miracles

What a productive weekend!

I had a relaxed Saturday with my family and it was amazing 'coz only on Saturdays I get to take a longer sleeping time. Also, I have my movie time  to watch "My Sister's Keeper" and I was really thankful 'coz our family was blessed to have a healthier being compared to what they challenged to have. 

Sunday though was quiet busy because of service. I'm a little sad that I was not able to meet Borgy (my GGG - God's greatest Gift, in SFC that's what we call our better half *wink) last week. It was his time to manage his little business. I hope we will be able to make up for the lost time. 

Since its Monday, I want to start everything with enthusiasm and declare that my miracles are on their way to meet me. I declare that God will bless everything that my hand touches. Business opportunities will come my way. More love I will embrace from all my relationships. My siblings will receive great opportunities and potential career. We will have the best celebration of my dear father's birthday. As for my service, will bloom to perfection as we get to learn things that will make our service even better. 

I believe that declaring your miracles and same time putting actions to make it happen is a way of manifesting you faith that we can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens us.

Jump start...

I believe that miracles do not happen only in an extravagant way... take a look at the birds, how are they supposed to eat and live without someone taking care of them. Look how the wind blows without seeing where its coming from, and how people live because of the breath of life. There are a lot of things that I consider miracles, and if only all of us sees them we will live a happier life. The fact that knowing our God takes control of whatever we have here on earth, how he allowed things to happen to us, everything is being taken care of. All we need is to trust and believe that in our daily lives, God speaks and it is for us to learn how are we going to see His daily message of love. 

This is just a jump start on how I will help you see how God works in our lives...  Sit back, relax and enjoy 'coz the love of God is on YOU....
