Thankful Thursday

Yesterday morning I asked the Lord a question and I felt like a child asking God something.  I had a great day yesterday.  I went to the office and did some errands after work.

Today was different though.  It felt gloomy...  Must be the weather. But towards the end of the day I read something posted by a friend on FB that struck me.  It says in my language --- "Hindi pa ngayon anak, may perfect timing ako sayo -- God."  (Not now my child, I have a perfect timing for you -- God.)  

How perfect was that!  I got my question answered.  It was like God talking to me directly.  No, I wasn't disappointed at all with the Not now my child. In fact, I was even more excited with the I have a perfect timing for you.

God has a perfect way of answering us, sometimes though in the most odd ways. But He does answer!

Thank you, Lord!

TSMSS - What Faith Can Do

It was Dad's birthday yesterday and also my nephew, Michael's.  Happy birthday!  

We had buffet breakfast at Vikings, Mall of Asia to celebrate.  Well, I was too engrossed with the food that I forgot to take photos.  I love to eat! We enjoyed the food, especially Dad.  

Anyway, I was able to talk to a very close friend of mine. Her name is Maya. She's feeling very downhearted with all the blows in her life right now.  I was telling her never to give up.  That God will surely make a way. I think this song by the Kutless is very encouraging.  

Everybody falls sometimes 

Gotta find the strength to rise 

From the ashes and make a new beginning 

Anyone can feel the ache 

You think it’s more than you can take 

But you're stronger, stronger than you know 

Don’t you give up now 

The sun will soon be shining 

You gotta face the clouds 

To find the silver lining

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains 

Hope that doesn’t ever end 

Even when the sky is falling 

I’ve seen miracles just happen 

Silent prayers get answered 

Broken hearts become brand new 

That’s what faith can do

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard 

Impossible is not a word 

It’s just a reason for someone not to try 

Everybody’s scared to death 

When they decide to take that step 

Out on the water 

It’ll be alright 

Life is so much more 

Than what your eyes are seeing 

You will find your way If you keep believing

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains 

Hope that doesn’t ever end 

Even when the sky is falling 

I’ve seen miracles just happen 

Silent prayers get answered 

Broken hearts become brand new 

That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds

You don't have a chance 

(That’s what faith can do) 

When the world says you can’t 

It’ll tell you that you can!

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains 

Hope that doesn’t ever end 

Even when the sky is falling 

And I’ve seen miracles just happen 

Silent prayers get answered 

Broken hearts become brand new 

That’s what faith can do 

That's what faith can do! 

Even if you fall sometimes 

You will have the strength to rise

Fearless Friday

TGIF! 

Today is a day dedicated to prayer and I'm joining Angie over at Free Spirit Haven.  If you have any concern that you'd like to lift up in prayer, I'd be glad to pray with you.  Leave me a comment here or you may send me a private message by clicking "Contact Me" up there. 

For those who are facing impossibilities...

Jesus replied, "What is impossible with men is possible with God." Luke 18:27

Lord Heavenly Father, we boldly come to your throne and present to you our needs and our heart's desires.  I pray that as we wait to receive our miracles, renew our strength and give us the grace to wait expectantly for your perfect timing.  We may encounter severe difficulties along the way, but we trust that you will be with us to carry us when our physical strength fails us.  We give you all the glory and praise.  In Jesus' mighty name, amen!

Thankful Thursday

Amidst my busy schedule, I'm thankful that even when my prayer is short, I know God hears them.  When I don't know what to say, I can pray in the Spirit.  I thank God that He doesn't require us to pray lengthy and  with flowery words before He hears us.  I thank God that all I need to do to be heard is to pray from the heart.
