Been singing this to Him

Your steadfast love extends to the heavens
Your faithfulness it reaches to the clouds
Your righteousness is like majestic mountains
And your wisdom like the depths of the seaAnd you come to me...

Filling my heart with your loving kindness
I find my peace in the shadow of your wings
I eat my fill from the abundance of your household
And I drink from the streams of rejoicing

You are my King...

"Your Steadfast Love" by Don Moen

When it's hard to give thanks

Today I received a sad news.

But then God is just faithful! He reminded me of two verses today when I was on my way home, crying...

"...in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." -1 Thessalonians 5:18

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." -Romans 8:28

This is the difficult part. To give thanks when the matter for you is not worth thanking God for. But His word says in everything, meaning there is no exception. And yes, not this one!

As a child of God, I have to be thankful for everything because everything happens for my own good, in accordance to His good and perfect will.  All I need to do is to trust in Him and take Him at His word.

And then boom!

He made me realize that this "sad news" is a wonderful opportunity for us (my husband and I) to level up on our trust in Him and for us to be amazed once again on how He will work our life as we build our family.  And with that, His peace ruled in my heart supernaturally.  He didn't allow myself to be eaten up by my ego and for me to be consumed by my being a "control freak of my life" because He is the One in charge, and not me.

He has proven Himself to be faithful to me, many, many times.  Why would I doubt now, right?

Thank You Lord for who You are.
Thank You for Your faithfulness.
Thank You because You are trustworthy.
Thank You because I have Your word to affirm and encourage me.
Thank You Holy Spirit for helping me keep things in Your perspective.
Thank You Jesus for there is forgiveness in You, and for Your righteousness imputed upon me.
Thank You dear God, for everything that You are.

PS... Yes, I was crying habang naglalakad papunta sa EDSA. Good thing I had my shades on! Lol!

Mema = Mema-i-blog-lang :)

My husband and I were on our way home last night riding a cab when I heard the DJ from the radio read poems...One thing I realized while listening to the beautiful poems is: I miss writing! :'(

And yeah, if I really want to improve on that area, I have to write again. I guess I have to blog again. I've been out of this blog for a long time now and up until now, even with an unlimited internet access at home, I still can't figure out how am I suppose to make time for this "hobby."

Sigh.

But we'll see where I'll get from here.

For now, that's all folks! Happy New Year! :)

And so I thought I'd blog! :)

Hello world!

Just dropping by to share that I am now a MRS.

Will tell more about it next time! Pending pa ang internet connection application namin and ang chaka mag blog using my iPad kaya next time na lang. Hehe!

Bow!  :)

-yours truly,
Rajsh Sabio-Velasquez

On the 21st...

On the 21st of this month, John and I will marry each other. Less than 3 weeks na lang! Oh my gosh! Hahaha! :)

And yes, that's the main reason why I've neglected this blog so much and even my wedding blog... Totoo pala na busy ang mag prepare! Hehe!

Ayun lang. Napadaan lang ako. Hope may nagbabasa pa dito. Until next!

Blessings! :) ♥

Resounding still

This verse has been resoundingin my head since Wednesday last week... It has changed my perspective on everything that is going on in my life from that point on...

 "And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose..." 

-Romans 8:28 

 Thank You for your comforting truth! :)

Kamusta?

Hindi ko alam na nakatingin si John... pampasira, hindi na tuloy mukhang candid! Hmp! :p
Taken last Sunday, during our Theology class. Salamat self-timer at may picture ako! :))

Kamusta naman?

Miss na miss ko na ang blog ko na ito... It's been a while! Akala ko nung una when I bought my iPad I would be able to blog more... hindi pala! Hehehe!

What's up ba kamo? Eto, less than 3 months na lang wedding na namin ni John! And yes, I'm super excited! Pero marami pa kaming dapat asikasuhin so bawal magmadali! Hehehe!

God's been so good to me... I will share it na lang when I have more time!

Thank you for dropping by today.

Blessings to you! :)
