Remember David's trust

I am so troubled right now. Restless. Stressed.

Stressed with so many things in this world. Threat. Worries. Responsibilities. Uncertainties and Sin.

Sobrang bigat ng pakiramdam ko. A lot of thoughts have been running on my head back and forth. Naramdaman ko ang pagod.

I just want someone who will tell everything will be alright. That I dont need to think and be so serious about it. I want my comfort food, my favorite coffee on my table right now. Pero pagud na pagod pa rin ako.


Nalulungkot ako pero I'm keeping the fight still. A friend told me na kaya ko ito...with the grace of the Lord. Pero dumarating lang talaga sa dulo na hindi ko na kaya. Iri-raise ko muna ang white flag.


Pero alam nyo ba what God made me realized today? That I can fight all these things that seem to running as "giants" in my life. And then I read a passage from 1 Samuel 17:33-50. How David shows his trust to our living God.

"The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine."

45 David said to the Philistine, "You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the LORD will hand you over to me, and I'll strike you down and cut off your head. Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. 47 All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give all of you into our hands."
This trust. I need to remember this David's trust in the Lord. I failed to remember when I'm in the lowest point of my thoughts and concerns.

And the Lord never fails. He pours down his grace upon me like never before. I feel lighter now. Magiging ok na ako. :)

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 ...
