lastsheetoftoiletpaper


It is just so disappointing when people leave the last sheet of a toilet paper just to escape from the simplest task of putting a new roll. 

Swerte o di maayo?

Insakto walo ka oras naglingkod atubangan sa computer.  Lingkod lang ha. 
Imultiply ug 20 ka adlaw (1 buwan) tapos imultiply na pod 6 ka-buwan. 
Ingon ana ang nahitabo sa ako office. 
Oo, nagdawat ug sweldo – kumpleto.

Joharis Window 3


Today I am going to write those things that I know that others do not know.  These realizations used to be under Joharis Window 4 before.

As of the moment I can only count few of them but surely I will be adding up once my thoughts would alarm me. Lol.

1)     I have Skin Asthma.
2)     I feel like I am being punished when I eat any sour food (i.e orange, fruit juice, etc)   – Window 1?
3)     I have not tried real manicure and pedicure.
4)     I do not like close areas (I suspect I am claustrophobic).

I am willing to open my window 2…go ahead tell me!

Heavenly Man: The Remarkable True Story of Chinese Christian Brother Yun

In less than a week I have finished reading a book I received on my birthday.  Title: The Heavenly Man: The Remarkable True Story of Chinese Christian Brother Yun by Paul Hattaway and Brother Yun 

I do not know whether I need to write a review of how the book was written or write about the life lived by brother Yun.  I have heard many people say that this is a must-read book.  I just also learned that it was awarded “The Book of the Year 2003”.  Well, the book and the life of Brother Yun are remarkable. 

In the first chapter I was expecting more of an introduction of the many chapters I will be reading.  Light reading.  But to my surprise, it went straight to life of Brother Yun, the family struggle, the persecution and pain.  Yes, you will also feel tormented while reading.

For the next chapters I learned that Brother Yun is physically extraordinary.  He had been imprisoned almost 75% of his life.  He had been beaten and almost died in several occasions.  But with God’s grace, he looks fine on current photos.  God’s grace of provision and healing was always with him. 

Meanwhile, on many chapters it had been mentioned that he memorized chapters of the Bible and have meditated on His word even when he does not carry a Bible.  There is one verse he have memorized that I too suddenly wanted to memorize.  Micah 7:8-9.  I was reminded that if do not know his word, I will have no shield, I will have no armor against the attack of the enemy. 

Brother Yun’s dedication to God, in serving Him and loving Him makes me little.  I am a servant of God yet How I serve and love Him is nothing compared to the suffering Brother Yun has done in bearing the name of Jesus.  As I was reading, I was understanding the people in the Bible more and more. Paul, Job & etc.  The relationship he has with God is very eminent.

I am also amazed at Deling’s faithfulness and compassion for the ministry.  She has more than a wife’s heart.  With all that have happened to Brother Yun and even to her and the children, Deling has stood not because it is her responsibility but because she too has experienced the love of God, she knows what it is like serving God.

I am hoping that many will be moved by his story of life through reading the book.  There are many facets of life that have been mentioned in the book, all of which Brother Yun has victoriously won by abiding in Him.  Discipleship, tithing, obedience, prayer and many more.  May people see how God have held him from the beginning to the end, how He loved him and see what hope we have if we are in Christ.

Anger is from the devil

Dear Blog,

Just minutes ago I was a little offended.  I was asking a permission to talk because I wanted to ask a question.  I was answered “Busy”.  Well, I can see she is.  I saw it in my eyes yet my feelings were a little hurt.  Now that I am fasting, I have restrained myself from Facebook comments.  I cannot post on my wall what I wanted to say at the moment.  I thought of using other networking sites where I can just release the “anger” I had.  But before that I tried to find the best Bible quote to post.  I have a read a few and realized my anger has subsided. Truly His word is powerful.  He knows what we are going through.  He have provided the word even before have asked for it.  I haven’t posted any.  Good thing I surpassed the temptation of posting on my Facebook wall.
