Lenten Reflections 2011



Happy Easter everyone! :)

I am not sure what to write. But I just wanna share the very message of God told me just today in the mass.




“I died for you so you can live….”

















I realized that what Jesus did on the cross was a gift.



For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9


Sino pa ba ang makakapantay sa ginawa? This wonderful gift just save humanity lang naman. :D



A.M.N.E.S.I.A.

Totoo nga ang sinabi ni Father Daniel na ang pinakamatagal at sa tingin kong pinakamalalang sakit ng tao ay ang Amnesia.

We as human often forgets the things God has given us.

And sometimes when we choose to sin, we think that we are in debt with our Holy God. Judgement: Guilty!

That's what I did. I felt and thought that I am.

Just this holy week, I haven’t choose a sacrifice to offer to Jesus. I stayed and bummed in the house all day (sorry sa mga nag-stay din sa house that's not my point...). My point is I felt really guilty because I know I can do more for him.

But every time, this feeling of guiltiness creeps in, God has never failed me to secure me of His words.


The Promise

Oo na makulit lang ako.

Gusto ko lang bumawi. I know it's by my own works that I am saved. Pero dahil si Jesus lang naman ang Lord ng buhay ko, I did make a promise.

Na:

- Babawi ako on the next days and weeks to come.

- I will try to live Maundy Thursday and Good Friday till Easter Sunday every day of my life. This time I will try harder by the grace of God.

- When I sin. I will always choose to repent. Babalik at babalik ako pa rin sa kanya. :)



Guys Holy week should not be one week or 40 days fasting and praying. But I think the very essence ng Holy week for us Christian is:

To remember what Christ did for on the cross us everyday of our lives.

Guys...let's all kill our amnesia. Hehe. :)

Amen.

When is the right time?

When is the right time? There is just this one guy who makes me happy everyday. He makes my heart beat faster. He makes me feel really special even he intends not to. I wanted to express what I feel but I'm afraid it may not be the right time. God only knows when... New Chapter: The Japanese  I wondered...why am I always affiliated to "japan" word. I was never a super fan of any anime. Oh there is one...Sailormoon series. Naruto? so so. Ah Yugi-oh! :D Gladly, I started and ended only these two series. And in between I met some japanese folks - some of them are acquaintance  and wives of friends. One of my friend dreams to flew in Japan. Another one is a collector of manga characters. Friends and college friends work there. Now surprised! I was hired by Aeon  as Managing Software Consultant for a project - a japanese company. Never thought of it. But my subconscious mind has been absorbing too much information about Japan and japanese culture. Now my turn ...
