HEAR YE THE MASTER'S CALL
Posted at 02:39 AM

Just came back from another camp. first time to join one conducted by my home church. dapat sa YA (Young Adults) retreat ako sasama pero hinila (hinarass, kinaladkad at tinulak) ako sa pang-youth.

and im so thankful that i came.

for the first time in months, ang clear ng signal ko with God...kumbaga sa cellphone, fullbar talaga. instant connection with the HS. parang info overload pa sa Word. and the fire is raging until now. super-recharged ako! i pray that it lasts.

i thank him for the joy of service. kahit pinangarap ko nung una na maging simpleng camper lang, iba ang plano Niya. buti na lang.

i thank him for the gift of music. and for the wonderfully talented, "halimaw" people who share my passion for it.

i thank him for a discovered potential ...na sobrang aksidente lang nangyari. at kahit medyo intimidating siyang isipin na ministry, di na ako papalag, oo na po agad. at mukhang may bago na akong mentor...yey(yikes?)

i thank him for the 70+ young people who came...or should is say, "spiritual beings"? grabe. i can't imagine highschoolers praying that powerfully. nawa'y tuloy-tuloy na ang revival ng youth ng cosmo.

i thank him for the fellowship and the bonding and the half-a-dozen new adopted kids i have. hehe, tanggap ko na ang aking pagiging ate. at momy. pero hindi ang maging lola.

i thank him for the fall that went before my pride.

i thank him for the angels who came to my rescue, made me their first aid guinea pig, patched me up, fed me, made me laugh, nang-inggit sa swimming, and supported/hauled/carried all 50kgs of my wieght for a day. yep, its my third time to sprain my right foot in the past 3years.tsk

and i thank him for the new song of freedom:

a song of freedom is on my lips today, today

i sing about the one i love today, today

all i can see is your mercy

all i can feel is your grace

your love is so wonderful

and all the people sing that

our God reigns above all.

BUHAY BUM
Posted at 02:29 AM

halos araw-araw na ang buhos ng ulan. tapos na ang summer.

nakahuling videoke na sa Gbox ang mga kabataan. marami nanamang nakapila sa national. schedule sa klase at di sa gimik ang inaatupag ng mga tao. bumalik na ang allowance. pasukan nang muli.

pero di na para sa akin ang eksena na ito.

ngayo'y kain, tulog, paglalaba, paghugas ng pinggan, pagbabasa, pag-bantay sa kapatid, pagpapataba, pagpunta sa simbahan, pagkanta, pagtext, pag-aaral ng gitara, pag-aaruga sa mga alaga, pagpapagaling ng mga sugat, pag-net at walang humpay na paghihintay ang ginagawa ko.

in fairnes, busy rin pala ang buhay bum.

di pa naman ako natataranta sa kawalan ko ng trabaho. di pa ito panahon. mas lalo akong di nababahala sa kawalan ko ng bf. darating din yun. at di ko pa namimiss ang buhay estudyante. tapos na yun.

BETTER THAN LIFE
Posted at 06:51 PM

Better than the riches of this world

Better than the sound of my friends' voices

Better than the biggest dreams of my heart

And that's just the start

Better than getting what I say I need

Better than living the life that I want to

Better than the love anyone could give

Your love is

You hold me now in your arms

And never let me go

And you oh Lord make the sun shine

And the moon light in the night sky

You give me breath and all your love

I give my heart to you because

I can't stop falling in love with you

I can't stop falling in love with you.

 

Yan ang LSS ko ngayon...kahit di kinanta sa hillsongs concert last saturday na sobrang astig. catchy kasi yng tune kaya ako natuwa nung una...at lalo pa akong na-enganyo nana makita ko lyrics. swak eh. salamat nak.

ISANG MAHIGPIT NA...
Posted at 02:46 AM

AKAP

(ng Imago)

Nagtatanong
bakit mahirap
sumabay sa agos
ng iyong mundo

Nagtataka
Simple lang naman sana
Ang buhay
Kung ika'y matino

Sabihin sa akin lahat ng lihim mo
Iingatan ko
Ibaling sa akin ang problema mo
kakayanin ko

Pikit mata
kong iaalay
ang buwan at araw
pati pa sapatos kong suot

Nagtatanong
simple lang naman sana
ang buhay
kung ika'y lumayo

Sasamahan ka sa tamis
Sasamahan ka sa dilim
Sasamahan ka hanggang langit
Sasamahan ka sa tamis
Sasamahan ka sa pait
Sasamahan ka sa dilim
Sasamahan ka hanggang langit

Sasamahan ka

MGA ANAK: Es, Da, Ra, Ni, Ka, Ja...para sa inyo ito. Kahit di ko man kayo hiniling sa Kanya, lubos pa rin ang aking pasasalamat at dumating kayo sa buhay ko. Lagi ko na kayo ngayong dalangin. Mahal ko kayong lahat. Momy.

A SONG FOR HANNAH
Posted at 03:38 PM

I WANT TO GO ON LOVING YOU

 

This is my prayer, this is my cry

I want to go on loving you

All through the joy

And all through the fire

I want to go on loving you

I want to go on loving you

 

Seasons may change, people depart

I want to go on loving you

In times of pain, when life is hard

And when the journey seems so long

I want to go on loving you

 

Your love for me

New as the dawn

Older than time

Stronger than death

Greater than life

This love is mine

 

In everything, through all of my life

I want to go on loving you

This is my prayer, this is my cry

I want to go on loving you

I want to go on loving you

IN PAIN
Posted at 01:32 AM

is what i am now

from a still swollen ankle sprained almost a month ago

from jazz and interpretative dance after an almost two-year hiatus (as sweet termed it, kinakalawang)

from a sprouting wisdom tooth

from too-tight clothes

from a lack of prayer

from parental pressure

from being in my comfort zone only twice a week

from callussed fingertips due to weekly guitar lessons

from a stupid miscommunication thingie

from being cornered

from surviving on two hours of sleep

from my uncontrollable singing

from the sad thought of someone far far away

 

im not complaining...im just...cataloguing.
