Please Pray For Us

***UPDATE***

Jec emailed me last March 19. He's asking me to pray for him and to take good care of myself. He said He's definitely going to call me soon. He also said that he's okay as of the moment and that he'll survive this trial. He did say what the problem was but did not elaborate much.

My special thanks to Corry, KC, Bonnie and Jeremy who went out of their way to help me. I thank all my cell group members for fighting this battle with me and Jec. And of course all my blogger friends who willingly interceded for us in prayer.

I still haven't seen any light yet on this matter but I'm hoping that this shaking in our lives will be over soon. Please do continue to remember us and cover us in prayer.

*******************************************************************
Dear Friends,

Things haven't changed and it's even more difficult now. Please pray for my husband, Jeric. Pray for wisdom and that God will reveal to him His will for us. Pray for God's favor to be upon his life. My husband needs God now more than ever and he needs His guidance. He's going through a lot now. I love my husband and I just want him to be back home SAFE with me.

God gave us a promise and I know that God is able and willing to fulfill His promise to us.

Please remember us in your prayers.

It'll Be Over Soon

We had a hectic schedule early this week because the president of KA International, Senor Luis Blanc, also a former regional director of Zara was here for a visit. He went back to Spain last Wednesday. Nice guy.

On a personal note, words aren't enough to describe the emotions I'm feeling now. All I can think of saying is that "God, please help us." Then I'd feel a lump forming in my throat and tears welling up in my eyes. I know this is just a phase in our lives that we need to go through but I'd also like to be honest in saying that I'm already exhausted. But in spite of it all, there's this tiny voice in my heart that says, "Don't give up. It'll be over soon." That's what holds me up. And I remind myself of what God said, since I'm a firm believer that my God is a faithful God:

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

One day, all these will be over. One day...

Dear God

Dear God,

Please help us...

Desperately,

Your daughter

I've Been Tagged

THE RULES: Each player of this game starts with the 6 weird things about you. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says you are tagged in their comments and tell them to read your blog.




1. My favorite veggie is bitter melon and I even love eating its tendrils. My mom does something with it to lessen its bitter taste but I like it better the way it is - BITTER. The more bitter, the better.









2. I smell my food before eating it. I really don't know why I do this but I remember my dad scolding me when I was younger because of this. He'd always say, "Why do you have to do that? What are you, a monkey?" I wonder, does a monkey smell its food before eating it? Haha!!!



3. I don't eat bell peppers. Sure, they can make the food look enticing but I hate the way it tastes. I always remove them from any food I eat that has them like pizza. If I accidentally bit even a tiny piece of it, I lose my appetite.







4. When I mix juice, it always looks more like water having a little color in it. I know it tastes dull but that's how I like my juice. When it's too sweet for my taste, I feel like my nose is enlarging, like it has a life of its own.



5. Some people wiggle their toes. I sway and pat my feet together when they're up on a stool or on the bed. I usually do this while watching T.V. and my husband hated it. I'd stop when he calls my attention but the moment of stillness usually last only for less than five minutes then I'd unconsciously do it again.





6. I like my soup boiling hot. When I'm not done sipping it in 10 minutes, I'll let it boil again.






I tag: Corry, Mary Rose, Audrey, Shenna, Sylvia, Enid, Jeremy

KA... Here I Come!

I'm going back to work on February 1. Woohoo! Nope, I didn't go for that job offer where my so-called friend was. She can very well keep her job. I had a deadline to meet, a goal to achieve and I was led to choose KA International - a posh European furniture shop, located in the heart of Makati's trendy district, The Manansala Tower in Rockwell Center. I'm excited because I'll have training in interior decorating which I find really interesting. And most of all, whatever I'd learn from this experience is something I'll have with me for the rest of my life.

Thank God roses are starting to bloom again!
