Happy Father's day!

Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old. 
Proverbs 23:22 (NIV)

Looking for a house for rent

...not for us but for our Pastor and his family.

because he was given only fifteen days (from June 6) to vacate the church property, we are now in  a hurry, they only have 5 days left :(

For specifics, probably near San Isidro and Palanan because the kids are in school. They actually have a house in Bulacan but they can't leave the city because of the ministry and their kids.

We've been scouting and searching for days now but to no avail. But we know that God will not let them live in the streets :) and if that is what the enemy wants, well I'm sorry to say God will not let that happen.

So please if you know of a house or an apartment for rent just inform me ASAP. They're not picky, even if it is an old house (at this time they won't look for anything else such as if the wires or hoses are teflon hose or not, as long as it can accommodate them and the kids, it's gonna be fine with them.

Thank God it's Friday :)

Because that would mean no office for two days. Hooray for the weekend! 

There are few things I want to be excited about this weekend (besides from not going to work) On Sunday will be our first ever formal worship service with our new church name (pending registration though)but still i want to be excited about it. The last two weeks are pure chaos and pains and worries and I'm looking forward to worshiping with my brothers and sisters in Christ again. It's been a long time.

Also on Sunday afternoon, we will attend a Mcdonald birthday party for our godchild. We will make some balloon arrangement too for her. It is such a busy weekend and no time for grieving to what have happened, it's time to move on and start forgetting the past. It won't be easy but at least we will start now. The only problem I see this weekend is our home chores specially the laundry. How I wish I have tons of clothes ( would love to have  rj classics apparel too)and that it won;t be a problem to us even if we don't launder for at least two months..hahaha! lazy me :)

What are your plans this weekend? Are you also excited for your Sunday worship service?

Saying it with flowers

My husband (being the practical type of guy) is not the type who give flowers from time to time, you know just to surprise you in an ordinary day. It would be a big surprise to me if one day he ask and search about sending flowers with an online company and decided to send me one in the office (kilig much ako nun!) but there are few occasions since we got married that he has given me flowers ( still not the kind of expensive flowers)but it's alright at least he made an effort.

here are some of the flowers he gave me on very rare moment..:) I think most of them are my birthdays.

 A blue, yellow and red rose

and he has also given me some flowers that he picked somewhere (like the flowers below-taken while we were strolling the streets at my sisters's place in Bulacan)

and here's the funniest part, when we are in the grocery store, he would always go to the flowers section, pick a bunch of flowers and give it to me, as soon as I said thank you and I love you too, I will return the flowers and he'll return it to their stand.

I love my husband, he may not give me the best of material things but his love for me is priceless and he does not say it only with flowers.

Update.Recording.Change

The husband and his band mates are now in full swing ( I’d like to think it that way) in recording. They have three schedules now in a week and so my hopes are high that we have not to wait too long to finally get hold of their very first worship album.

Amidst the recording though are the many changes taking place in our church or should I say former church? It is quite sad that when this album is released we will no longer be there. I know deep in my heart that some of the people we will leave behind are the very people who also dreamt with us for this album. I just hope they would still want to hear the band’s songs even if we aren’t together anymore.

Come to think of it, change is inevitable no? Whether we like it or not we have to face change at some point in our life. And even if that change is for the better somehow it still hurts. The process of leaving something that you used to do or be with is not easy.

Anyways, even if this journey to change that we are going through right now seems “ugly” at the moment I know in God’s perfect time that He’ll make all things beautiful. And who can tell when God's time is? it can be tomorrow or next week or next month or even next year. I will just wait. And while waiting, we will keep on praising God and doing what we are supposed to do.

I will keep you all posted for the changes and updates on our new ministry areas and new church.

June 17. Father's Day

My father just phoned me a while ago, he seldom calls me and when he does I know it is important and yes I was not wrong, it is important because it is about his medicines. The call reminded me also that it's Father's day on Sunday, (if you still don't have gifts for your father you can check redenvelope fathers day gifts online catalog) I wonder what we will do in the church for the Fathers :)

As for me, I don't know what to give him, I want to give him money so he can buy what he wants,(hopefully)  but definitely we will visit them on Sunday and have dinner with them. Spending time with your parents can be the best gift di ba?

Home alone. sleepy

I'm home alone tonight. I decided not to go with my husband in the recording studio. I need to sleep early because of work tomorrow. I am not really used to being alone here in the house and it feels sad, good thing I have internet (though too slow) and my Tablet to keep me company.

But because I am sleeping early (to think I just woke up 5 hours ago) I'll just make a quick visit to facebook and some friends blog and I'll be off to bed. I don't know but I think i am too sleepy.

It's holiday here today ( Philippine's Independence day) and I spent all day at home sleeping. Sigh. at least I am rested and hopefully ready for days work tomorrow :)

Have a blessed evening everyone!! God loves you!

happy food. happy thought

I am an emotional eater. I admit that. When I am emotionally down (that means sad/grieving/unhappy) I tend to eat more than what I should and when I say more than it really is more. I remember one time when I got mad with my husband, I finish all the dinner food that was supposed to be for the two of us. :) Now that things are bad and I am so down, all I want to do is eat and eat and eat. Hoping that I can eat all the sadness away.

Anyways, I'm trying to look for foods that will make me happy or at least help ( although of course the source of joy and happiness is only our Lord Jesus) they say chocolate is a happy food, my husband and I have been munching on chocolates since last week and I don't know if that helped.

Maybe something different will lift my mood like chocolate covered berries or bananas dipped in chocolate or a taste of my favorite native longganisa and bagoong. Just thinking of it makes me happy na :) Maybe I should have them for dinner later :)

First song

These pictures will always be memorable for me and for Rudolf because this was his very first time and set in the recording studio. "Sasayaw at Sisigaw" is the first song they did and is now finished. Hopefully the worship album will be launched before the year ends. I didn't know that recording really takes time but I'm sure it's worth the wait and the effort :)

My husband has still lot to learn about music, even if he knows how to play most of the instruments, he does not stop learning, recently he found an old flute in the house (not the kind yamaha flutes though) and he's been playing it.

I don't know what's next for him :) I pray he'll continue his passion in music and that he'll keep using it to serve the Lord.

Again, thank you everyone for the support! God bless you all!!
