Our Daily Bible Reading

I just want to share our daily bible reading for today. This morning after I fed the boys and cleaned them up we went to my bedroom and sat on top of the bed while we are having our daily bible reading. The Chapter 4 of Proverbs is what we read. My eldest son was paying attention of what I've read to them, it was a good reading because I noticed my eldest son is trying to enter-act of what he heard from the scripture. I asked him what he had learned from what I read and he said "Son, pay attention" I have a big smile in my face when he said that so it means that he is listening of what I read to them. Since my husband is not here with us and he cannot be the head of the family, so I did all the responsibilities while he is gone. I told my husband about his eldest son's behavior and actions every day. I make it sure that he knows everything about his children. I don't want that he will be left behind when he comes back. While he's not around, I will do everything for my children's sake and of course I always ask God's guidance and wisdom in all I teach them. Yes, sometimes kids are annoying but it doesn't mean you will stop loving them, they are just being a kid and they are not perfect.

Here is the Proverbs 4: 1-27
¹ Listen, my sons, to a father's instruction; pay attention and gain understanding. ² I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teaching. ³ For I too was a son to my father, still tender, and cherished by my mother. ⁴ Then he taught me, and he said to me, "Take hold of my words with all your heart; keep my commands, and you will live. ⁵ Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn away from them. ⁶ Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. ⁷ The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding. ⁸ Cherish her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you. ⁹ She will give you a garland to grace your head and present you with a glorious crown." ¹⁰ Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. ¹¹ I instruct you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. ¹² When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble. ¹³ Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life. ¹⁴ Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evildoers. ¹⁵ Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way. ¹⁶ For they cannot rest until they do evil; they are robbed of sleep till they make someone stumble. ¹⁷ They eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence. ¹⁸ The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. ¹⁹ But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble. ²⁰ My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. ²¹ Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; ²² for they are life to those who find them and health to one's whole body. ²³ Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. ²⁴ Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips. ²⁵ Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. ²⁶ Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. ²⁷ Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.

For Today

I look back upon this day, Lord, and I thank You for being with me. When I awoke this morning, I felt You near, urging me to be positive and look for the good in things. Through the day, You reminded me to seize the moments and use them to do Your will. When weariness set in, thank You for helping me press forward, be responsible, and not put things off. Someone crossed my path. He needed an encouraging word and a prayer offered up for help. Thank You for urging me to be alert and tuned to hear and recognize Your voice. Later today, You calmed my heart when hard feelings could have brewed. You sealed my lips and changed my stubborn ways to patience and kindness. Thank you for helping me love and forgive. Thank you for the patience that you give each and every moment that my children is not behaving well, but You reminded me of teaching them in Your Word and I cannot do it without You. It's evening now. I cannot take this day back, it is gone forever. The good and the bad, Lord. Thank You for it all. I look toward a new day tomorrow in You, Let me seize it for Your glory.

In Jesus name, Amen.

This is the day which the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 (KJV)

Our Children

This morning when I got up, my kids was still asleep and got a chance to do some things around the house and one of my friend buzz me that there is a opportunity from PPP so I did got it. I hurriedly wrote it before kids will wake up and submitted it.

Shower after breakfast!!

As soon as they got up my house house rumbles with laughter and tussles. I hurry to keep up with it all. They are a heritage that comes from You. These bursts of energy in various sizes and personalities are like arrows in a warrior's hands. I call on You for wisdom. Each day I thank You for guidance in handling different situations. Thank You, Lord, for how You help me teach our children about Your love. I treasure Your leading as I share Your lessons with them while we go about our activities at home, when we share our fun and laughter, as we pray together at bedtime and rise each morning to face a new day. Thank you for taking care of us while my husband is not around us, also please be with him as he go about his training. Give him strength and courage.

My husband and I have dedicated our lives and these children to You, Lord. I know for sure Your hand is and will be upon them throughout their entire lives. I always tell them how thankful we are that we have Jesus in our hearts. We love you Lord.

"As for me and my household, we will serve the LORD (Joshua 24:15 NIV)

YOU ARE NOT AN ACCIDENT

Long before we're conceived by our parents we were conceived in the mind of God. We are alive because God wanted to create us with his own purpose. If there was no God, then we'd all be accidents. But there is a God, he made us for a reason, and our life has profound meaning. we discover that the meaning and purpose only when we make God the reference point of our lives. God's plan is amazing, you cannot fathom His infinite wisdom. Thank you that I was custom-made for a reason. Help me to trust your wisdom in choosing which path I would take. God is not playing a dice. I am so blessed that I have Jesus in my heart.

"Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them" (Psalm 139:16 NIV)

Sunday is a Church Day

Today is Sunday, we woke up very early, my husband prepared our breakfast while I was busy with writing my opps from SP, I didn't notice that itwas already 9:00AM, so I ate my breakfast quickly and needed to prepare myself and the boys for church. Sunday for us is the day to spend time with the Lord as a family. This is the only time that we worship Him as a family. It was a good message today, it talked about our Faith and how we get gifts of the Spirit from God. I am forever grateful and thankful to Him because He loves me and takes away my sins. It was really a good message and prayerfully I ask for His help for my other siblings salvation. He is our Defender, Redeemer and Friend. God to know Jesus!

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23 NIV)

My Sacrifice of Praise

This bible verses that I meditate today while I am sitting in my computer and kids was taking a nap. I would like to share this with you.

Praise ye the Lord, Praise God in his sanctuary: Praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts; Praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: Praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: Praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals: Praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath, Praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.

(PSALM 150) KJV

Thank you Lord for your mercies that new every morning.

PEACE I Leave With You

Today is a tiring day, I have a lot in my mind. Got a text from my sister asking for financial help for her daughter's enrollment, my children is not behaving good and being away from my honey. All this things made me really tired, stressed and easily to get upset of nothing. But before going to bed, I decided to read a bible verse just to have some comfort and this verse is right for me.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid" (John 14:27 (NIV)

In You, I believe, my Lord. In You, I trust. You are just and mighty. You are my peace. You quiet my heart and make me confident of Your care each day. Day and night I will heed Your Word and treasure Your peace within my heart and mind. A peace that warms and soothes like a sunrise and flows through me as a gentle stream. A peace that floods and washes over the trials and stress with powerful, cleansing waves of righteousness. Peace, victorious and sure! Thank You God for it! Thank you because I really feel your presence all the time. I will keep in my prayers those every individual that close to my heart, Like my family, my sister that needs healing, my in-laws, friends and relatives. And also, I will always seek your guidance for bringing my two boys in Your way. Amen!

Good Night everybody, See you tomorrow. remember to SMILE "Jesus Loves you so do I"

My Friends

What a wonderful gift from God to have online friends like Ms. Resebel, Ms. Marilyn, Ms. Jerla, Ms Anne, Ms Anagore and Shela. Heavenly Father, Thank you for them! You are always faithful to me, Your word is more powerful, You answered all my prayers in Your perfect time. Thank You for how You gave to me all my friends.

They are my friends online that I can share my deepest thoughts and secrets with. And theirs are buried deep within my well of prayers, not to be revealed to anyone other than You Lord. I praise You, Lord for my friends, my sisters in Christ. I will sing Your love forever...

"A friends loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity "Proverbs 17:17 (KJIV).

Military Advancement Exam for First Class

My husband and I were very happy when we found out yesterday morning that he had passed the advancement exam held last March 2008 for First Class Petty Officer or HM1. We were praying about this for a long time since we are in Okinawa, Japan. He had taken the examination for the sixth time, Yes six times. But we never stop praying to our Heavenly Father, that if it is His will He will give it to us. Passing the advancement exam is a big deal for us, especially in our financial status and my husband's career. We are truly thankful to God even when we are not faithful to Him sometimes, His word and promises are always fulfilled in His perfect timing. I am so proud of him that he made it to the first class. Job well done honey! Looking for the best in your career and I know you love what you are doing in serving your fellow countrymen.

Me, your 2 little boys, Mom, Dad, Ben (Brother), friends and our church family, are always there for you and we will keep on praying for all what you are doing. Just look up to Him, the author and finisher of our faith. He will guide you in all the right paths.

As your Mom & Dad said Give Thanks

Psm 75
⁶ For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. ⁷But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

From all of us: CONGRATULATIONS HONEY!

Armor Of God

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

Ephesians 6:10-18 (NIV)

Words Of Comfort

I have my quiet moment this morning and I prayed for all the victims especially in Myanmar and China and their friends and loved ones depart, but God will never leave us. He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)

As we bring our requests before the Heavenly Father, we know that He truly understand our deepest needs. We can count on and rest in His promises. He said " Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee; He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.... Casting all your care upon him, for he careth for you. (Psalm 55:22 & 1 Peter 5:7). "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus". (Philippians 4:6-7). God makes His Fatherly comfort clear through His word. Jesus also endured sadness, loneliness and pain during His life on earth, and He went that final step we will never take - He suffered and died alone for our sins on that cruel cross.

Also, the Lord has comforted his people and will have mercy upon his afflicted. I will not leave you comfortless, I will never leave thee nor forsake thee. God in love has promised grace for every trial, strength for every sorrow, help for every mile. Help for each tomorrow and new courage to your heart.

Remember friends, no matter how big or small is your sins, God is always there for us and His mercies is new every morning. I love you Lord with all my heart. You are my everything. You made my life complete and I am thankful for that. You are my God and my Savior.

Psalm 23:1-6

Hi Everyone... Here I am again, before I will to go bed I will leave this passages for you from the book of Psalm (King James Version).

** The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
** He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
** He restoreth my soul, He leadeth me in the paths of rightousness for His name's sake.
** Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou are
with me, thy rod and thy staff the comfort me.
** Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies, thou anointest my head
with oil, my cup runneth over.
**Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house
of the lord forever. Amen.

Good night everyone! God bless and see you tomorrow! Always remember Jesus loves you so do I.
