Thankful Thursday

I have so much to thank for this week. I don’t know how I am going to start because I was overwhelmed with God’s love and blessings.

First I am thankful we were able to attend the International teams East-Asia Conference in Macau. My heart was refreshed, I was re assured of God’s love for me even if I fail sometimes, and that HE loves me the same even if I do this ministry or not.

I am thankful for the positive response we got after we made the presentation/report about the fishnets ministry. I am thankful I was able to speak well, my friends knew I was so nervous to stand up and do the presentation but Praise God for HE gave me the courage and the wisdom.

that's me..making the presentation for our ministry

I am thankful for the provision for that trip, as you have read on my previous posts, my husband and I made some fund raising so we could go and attend and indeed we were able to come. Our God is God of provision.

I am thankful for all of my friends who supported us. Those who includes us in their prayers, thank you so much. I am also thankful for the people we met with this trip. We visited three churches in Hongkong and we were blessed.

One lady who we just met in Hongkong lend us bed sheets, linens and pillows and cook some food for us. She also gave us gifts when we are about to go home. She has a very good heart.

Leaving soon!

5 more hours to go and we're off to Macau. So I'm leaving you a post because I don't know when I'll be able to go online during the conference.

It was my birthday yesterday and there was nothing grand in it but God showed me how faithful HE is to me all this years.

First , He has given me parents that supports me all the way in all my decisions and endeavors. I am grateful that they understood the life I have chosen with the Lord. The very recent was when we are raising funds for the trip, my Father offered us money though I didn't ask for it. Not all are blessed with such wonderful set of parents and yes even my sisters supported us in anyway they can. God loves me so much so He blessed me with such a family.

Second, I am thankful for the friends who never forgets me. I am so much thankful for Michelle my cousin-friend who is like a sister to me. I have lots of good friends online and in real life. therefore I AM BLESSED.

and of course I AM BLESSED with a wonderful, loving and kind HUSBAND. I know I can be a good source of headache sometimes but he is just there always trying his best to understand me.

So, was it a happy birthday? yes..its a good one, no big celebrations but I have big BLESSINGS.

To GOD be all the glory!!

Thankful Thursday


3 more days to go and it’s my birthday
4 more days to go and we’re off to the mission’s conference.

Today I just want to thank God for the many things HE has been teaching me for the past few weeks.

I have never worked so hard like what I am doing now to meet the funds needed for the trip. Office work during the day, after office hours we will sell barbecue just outside the church and after that when everybody else is already in their beds, we will start printing t-shirts which hubby will deliver the next day.

I admit, it’s very tiring physically and emotionally. As of this writing, my husband Rudolf is resting because he has severe back pain this morning.

So what did I learn through all of this?

That…

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD.

I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME

ALL OUR LABOR IN THE LORD IS NOT IN VAIN

And I THANK HIM FOR ALL THOSE PERSONAL LESSONS.

Girls, If it is not too much of you, Can I again ask for your prayers? Because on the conference we are given a 10 minutes presentation for the ministry we are doing and we would like this presentation to be more challenging and at the same time encouraging to our fellow missionaries.

If you want to know about the conference, here’s the website and you can get info of our ministry here.

Before I go, welcome back Iris and just want to let you know that you are doing good in your photography. Thank you Lori for the 2 thankful Thursday you hosted.

Blessings to everyone!

Wordless Wednesday

It's Wordless Wednesday but here's word from HIM
have another entry here.

When to stop?

I am asking myself that question actually..

When should I stop doing a certain ministry?

Do you stop when you get tired?

Do you stop when you run out of funds?

Do you stop when you don't get results?

Do you stop when you feel like you are alone?

Do you stop when you are being discouraged?

Tell me, when do you stop?

Thankful Thursday


Once again, Lori is hosting the TT for this week. Thank you so much. I went over to her site this morning and my heart cried as I read through her thankful post. Why? because I have so many insecurities too. Sometimes I struggle so hard to give my best in everything I do not knowing that I am stressing my self too much and I know that can be insecurity, you try to be so good and best because you want people to accept you.

Praise God I have a FATHER who doesn't look on what I can give but loves me the same. And I thank HIM so much for that faithful LOVE and never ending GRACE.

I am also thankful this week for the blesings He sent us through some friends.

-A young missionary from Canada who went here 2 years ago sent us something for the Macau Mission's conference.Thank you Kirby!

- Our friend Lester and Jerlyn from Georgia sent us some funds to also for the conference.

-And a lot of our churchmates are buying the t-shirts we are selling as a means of fundraising for that mission trip.

We still need a lot and we only have 10 days left. But in times like this. I trust GOD to take control of everything.

Remember how He fed Elijah when he has nothing to eat? He can use even the ravens to meet your needs in time.

happy Thankful Thursday everyone!

Desperate and tragic times

A man killed his children, his wife and then himself because they lost their jobs.

You can read the whole story here.

That is very tragic.

I pray people turn in to GOD in desperate times because I am so sure GOD is ABLE to help.

I pray there won't be anymore mass death/suicide because of global crisis or because of hard times.

I remember there was also an incident something like that here in the Philippines. A woman poisoned her kids and herself too because they are so poor.

It's very sad. These are trying times but in times like this, let us all remember that there in one UPTHERE whom we can turn into, if you need to unload, He is just there ready to listen.

IT Regional Conference-Macau


It's official, just finished filling up the registration form online so I can say it is now official that we are attending the conference.

I am excited. :)
