Value of Time

When I think of the word TIME. I imagine my wrist watch ticking away second by second. It is awesome and awful how time is. Why did I say that? Its because even second, minute, hour that passes, it is history. Nobody can bring time back. It is awesome cause it is such a privilege that second by second we live. Every breathe that we take is a blessing.

I also have two thoughts about time right now. First is that I am hoping that I can have more time. Not for myself. Oh yeah! It is for myself. :D There is this moments that at the end of my day I will just think of things that I could have done. I dont regret since most are selfish wants in a to-do list. But I just miss the feeling of being in control of your time. Well God allowed me to control my time a few months ago and I enjoyed them. It is true that God gives and takes away. All we need to do is trust. Trust is another thing I want to talk about. I will do that next time. Here I trust God a lot knowing that when He allows things to happen in my life, there is always something He wants to teach me and use it for His greater Glory.

Second thought about time is about the time remaining before Jesus comes. Our church, CCF, is having a series about Signs of the Times. Indeed the Word is telling us that we need to be ready ourselves before Jesus comes. Matthew 24 talks about these things and I suggest that you read it. It WILL happen, Jesus coming back. Time is not ours to control. The only thing we can do is prepare and ready for the return. I dont want to be caught unaware doing SIN when Jesus comes. Do you?

Adding New Faith Goals for 2012

The year 2011 is over and I think this is a year that passed so quickly. But why? It is really this fast when you are a member of the working society? Because it went by so fast I wasn't able to keep all the faith goals that I set for 2011. But again by faith I'd like to keep that list and add some more. :) +1. By Faith, I'd like to tithe more that the expected 10% of my earnings/salary every Sunday and learn to bless others. +2. By Faith, I would like to bond more often and mentor the boys (disciples) entrusted to me. +3. By Faith, I can read the whole Bible in a year. (time to get me a new Bible reading plan. :p) +4. By Faith, I will work out, exercise and get into other sports. (I pray for strength, Lord) +5. By Faith, I will memorize the name of the people I meet and successfully match them with their faces. Hahaha +6. By Faith, I will widen my vocabulary and improve my grammar. :( +7. By Faith, I will read more than 10 books in 2012. :) I Pray that God will help me r...

It Is Not Always About Academics

In a recent exchange of text messages with my friend, I was brought to another part in my life when I was in my elementary level. I entered a christian school as a grade 2 student and didn't care much about academics. I guess that is natural for kids at that age. I remember the times that I started learning how to type properly and play games using stairs called "A B C." But one thing that I will never forget is the end of 2 nd grade. It is a tradition that awards will be given to academic achievers and be recognized at the end of a school year. I never felt so left out that afternoon when all my friends we being called since they have achieved high grades. I never knew what my grades were that school year and I bet it wasn't low but I felt that I was a dumb kid. I cried running towards my father when I told him that I was not included in the top 10. I think he said something like "try harder next year" ' coz it was instilled in me that I would do a lo...
