Certain




Back in college I had 3 options on what to do after school:

1.) to be a full-time church worker

2.) to go to bible college in Japan

3.) to study law



By His grace, enrolling in law school did not stop me from serving Him and in learning more of His word but the difference is that it involves lesser people and at times it is only me and the Lord.

Tonight I did not attend our tax class and it is my second absent in my three years in school. I am always present even in make-up classes in respect to the teacher and makosensya lang jud ko.

The first absent was when I had a digestion trouble that I missed the 2nd to the last lecture of sir Montejo in Consti2 though I forced myself to attend the class before it beacuse sir Aportadera conducted a mandatory recit. I stayed only for 10 minutes or less because I was the third called to recite and right after I gave my answer I politely made my exit.

Though it will never justify skipping classes, I will not regret attending the midweek service and learning the basics of "unity" from Ephesians 4. The Korean pastor also gave his testimony which revived my fading desire of becoming a pastor's wife. The calling to feed the flock and to reach for the lost once again fills my heart and my mind. Admittedly, Ive been indifferent lately that I let go of a number of opportunities to help and to minister others for the expedient reason that I'm busy, so busy for the exams which redounds to being so busy for myself.

Ministry is in different forms whether it is about raising children, studying, working in mission, worship leading and etc. I do not see much myself in litigation nor in preparing binding contracts but in being a Sunday school teacher, into cleaning and music ministry or organizing youth and women's fellowships. With such desires, I will never compromise the "person" of my partner-to-be in the minstry. He may not be a pastor right then when we meet or marry but he should be in love with the Lord more than he can imaginably love me and with humility to ask the Lord for breaking, maturity and consistency.

Wrong choices I am tempted to consider
Even if I would commit so
I am certain that You would still love me
Forbid it Lord that I'll break Your heart
Enable me that Your joy shall be my delight

Double DATE



Just when i tried much to behave
Keeping distance
Still and quiet at the corner
I missed knowing the name
Worse, what remained was a voice with no face


In plain white shirt and sneakers
I guess, his the male version of me
This is not a love talk
Maybe it is, in Romans 5 he shared
"When we were scarce of rigtheousness, He died on our behalf"

Barely slept the night before
Too weak to accomodate a conversation
I listened keenly though
To you young man, keep the zeal
Strange meeting, who can tell

Your passion for the Lord
A hope for a fruitful double
Maybe not you in particular
With certainty, a prince, God meant for me
One of His children who will serve Him faithfully

heart aTAX



praise God that our tax exam was moved a day later from its original sched otherwise it will be my 2nd bar-like examination in lawskul. i hoped for the resetting of it but refrained from insisting the same because I sensed a strong opposition from a few.

anyway thanks to the one who bravely requested for it and i pray for reconsideration in the hearts of those who wanted to be absolutely free on the 14th.

tomorrow is reserved for credit trans and will finish and master tax on Sat (if mamaster, haba eh). with such, i love to sing "God will make a way when there seems to be no way, He works in ways, we cannot see, He will make a way for me"

God bless us all. Conflix taught us unity and sacrifice kya sana maipagpatuloy natin. May we be a team also in finishing school and in passing the Bar with God coaching us.

Amsy asked me during our Tax class why I am sad.. Hmm di ko alam cguro kasi I missed the ladies retreat, the Michaels, BS, sunday service or napagod lang ng husto.

Aantayin Kita at Sabay Tayo




okay lang daw mgkagusto
di kaya, lalo na pagbabae ka
mg-antay cguro ay pwede pa

di tayo nagpapansinan at di rin magkaibigan
nararamdaman presensya ko'y iyong itinatakwil
ano pa't kahibangan ko sayo'y ititigil na

o gwapo ka, mabait raw at matalino
eh ano ngayon?
di naman ako ang laman ng puso mo


kahit replika kapa ni Jesus sa salita at gawa
mananatali akong babae
mag-aantay sa inilaang prinsipe

mabuti pang kalimutan ka
sayang lang ang paghanga
ayokong nasasaktan at namumukhang tanga

patawarin mo ko o Dios
itong pusong manloloko, kadalasan
ninakaw ang aking kasiyahan

linisin mo ko o Dios
sa mga ninanais na di Sayo
at punan ng tuwirang pagbabago

ipagdarasal at aantayin kita
sabay tayong magsisilbi sa Panginoon at kapwa
sabay tayo sa hirap at ginhawa hanggang sating huling hininga

ipapasa-Dios ang bawat yugto ng ating buhay
kahit sa kasalukuya'y magkahiwalay
mananalig, landas nati'y Kanyang iuugnay

ang araw na tayoy haharap sa altar
ay sing halaga ng araw na ako'y iniluwal
puno ng gabay at biyaya, sa Aklat ng Buhay nailagda

hihina man ang mga tuhod natin
sa pananalig at pananalangin patuloy na maglalakbay
sa Kanyang grasya mamumuhay at magtatagumpay
