Just Felt Like Blogging

I know that I am not really a blogger since a blogger daily or constantly blogs events that are happening around his or her life. But for no particular reason, I am blogging today. 

I have been working now for sometime and I pretty much like what I do. It proves that education really pays off. I am meeting new faces almost everyday and is looking forward for more new faces. Anyway, I decided to blog today since I know that this ordinary life of mine is not that ordinary when I think the wonder that my Lord and Saviour did for me. 

Yesterday I attended a whole day seminar for Single's and it was entitled A Single Passion. It talked about the gift of being single and how important we, singles, can use it for God. I learned the advantages of being single and being used for God. My discipler once told me that the greatest joy a Christian can feel while he is alive, besides knowing that he is a genuine Christian, is being used and seeing people you've touched grow in faith. This is also the case that I want. As a single, as where I am today, I want God to use me for His work. Again I am reminded that I am a slave of Christ.

Now, this is no easy task. It requires TOTAL humility and selflessness. It is so hard for me since I want to have a little tiny itsy bitsy bit in control of my life. This is my finances, career, love life, achievements. The one thing where I struggle is my love life. I still love to have a lovely woman who is madly in love over me. But from what I learned yesterday. That is SELFISH. I only want something out of her. I could use her for my earthly desires. That is why I forcefully want to deny myself and develop the true love that my "Love" deserves. 

Anyway, I give God control in my life. It wont be a joy ride but everyday with God is always the sweetest and loveliest day. By God's mercy and grace, I can do this.

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?

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
