Surprise Birthday Gifts

This morning someone just called in my emergency phone ...

and said... "I will be there in few mins... to give you something"

I was like what?

(^_^)

Is God Good?

You can say God is Good but why am I in this situation?

When Joseph (the dreamer) was in imprison he wonders Where is God?

But Joseph was model in the imprison and he runs the prison.

We ran to problems and basically our problems is running to God. We believe God is good and that is another problem. I believe God control our situation in life and challenge our whole faith in God and concept in Him.

A person look at the bad situation in their life and say God doesn't love me and God is not good. And they will judge God in their insufficient data.

Our problem is that we can not see tomorrow and we are in this chapter "I'm miserable" and God is not good. Don't you know God has a plan and God has a purpose in your life. God is working in our life. And even now wait for the next chapter and see. He might work out.

What was Joseph secret?

He never loose faith in God. You may not understand our situation today you may go through the worse situation but God has perfect plan and you will be thankful you didn't jump out and close the book.

I'm so glad I put my trust in the Lord and my life is more blessed. My sorrow and happiness is through Jesus.

Do you feel the same way too?

Plot:
Over the course of one evening, an unsuspecting group of twenty-somethings find themselves bombarded by a series of natural disasters and catastrophic events.
In DISASTER MOVIE, the filmmaking team behind the hits "Scary Movie," "Date Movie," "Epic Movie" and "Meet The Spartans" this time puts its unique, inimitable stamp on one of the biggest and most bloated movie genres of all time -- the disaster film. DISASTER MOVIE follows the comic misadventures of a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event -- asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works -- hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction. Taking aim at everything and everyone, from "Indiana Jones" and "Iron Man" to Amy Winehouse and "High School Musical," DISASTER MOVIE lampoons the blockbuster movie, pop culture icons and public figures along the way as Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer satirize everything as only they can.

ayan so kayo, if you want to relax and waste some money go ahead and watch this movie but I'm telling you its really not that good

The Feast of Ramadhan

I was surprise this morning when I heard that tomorrow will be holiday... I wasn't watching any TV news lately so you can say I'm very behind everything ... happening in this world (Y_Y)
and so I research at the net since my curiosity got me eto na nga research2x sa net...

The Feast of Ramadan

Ramadan is an Islam celebration of honor and faith. To comprehend the said event it is important to be aware first about the origins of Islam.

The Prophet Muhammad (Mohammad, Mohammed) was born in Mecca in 570 A.D. When he was 40 years old, the Angel Gabriel appeared to him and told him he was called to become a messenger of God. She taught him the verses of the Holy Koran, the Holy book of Islam. In Arabia at that point in time, there was a belief in many Gods. Muhammad taught that there was only one God- Allah, which means God in Arabic. The word Muslim literally means “one who gives himself to God” in Arabic. Islam means “submission or obedience to God.”

source: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art38032.asp

Muslims do not eat pork, but other meats are allowed, and animals must be killed in a way painless.
The passage of the Holy Koran is that Allah is the creator of the world. Muslims should surrender to the willpower of Allah.

The Five Pillars of Islam (Arabic: أركان الإسلام) is the term given to the five duties incumbent on every Muslim. These duties are Shahadah(profession of faith), Salat (ritual prayer), Zakat (alms giving), Sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). These five practices are essential to Sunni Islam. Shi'a Muslims subscribe to eight ritual practices which substantially overlap with the Five Pillars.[1] Twelvers have five fundamental beliefs which relates to Idahoan. [2]
The concept of five pillars is taken from the Hadith collections, notably those of Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. The Qur'an does not speak of five pillars, although one can find in it scattered references to their associated practices.

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Pillars_of_Islam

The Feast of Ramadan
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islam calendar.

Muslims believe that is was during the month of Ramadan that Mohammed, the prophet, received the Quran from Allah (God). At the end of Ramadan, the Id-al-Fitr (eed-al-fit-er), or the Feast of the Fast Breaking, is celebrated. Eid means recurring happiness or festivity . Greetings of "Eid-Mubarak" or "a blessed Eid" are exchanged. A very important aspect of eid is the charity which all the Muslims are expected to extend to the needy. The first Eid of the year, is known as "Eid Al Fitr". Al Fitr literally means breaking of fast. Thus Eid Al Fitr is celebrated on the first day of Shawaal, the tenth month in the Muslim calendar, to mark the end of a month long fast during the month of Ramadan. It is considered unholy to fast on this day. It is also a day of forgetting old grudges and ill feelings towards other fellow men.

Ayan my research are completed now I understand what is The Feast of Ramadhan

Calvary Chapel: My First Communion (9th Visit)

Last night, I finally experienced my first communion with Calvary Chapel. I knew there was a communion every First Wednesday of the month but I'm not sure if I was eligible since am considering myself "a 2months old baby" within their service.
The topic last night was:

Don't Judge

from the old testament 1 Samuel 16, I was feeling dizzy while listening (I have no dinner yet) and it was already around 20:00 anyway I did feel tired but still I'm not weak.

here are the verses of the teachings for last night 1 Samuel 16:1-23

1 And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.

2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.

3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.

4 And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?

5 And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto the LORD: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD's anointed is before him.

7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.

9 Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.

10 Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The LORD hath not chosen these.

11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.

12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.

13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

14 But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him.

15 And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.

16 Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.

17 And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.

18 Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD is with him.

19 Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.

20 And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them by David his son unto Saul.

21 And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armourbearer.

22 And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight.

23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

Pastor Ken Pascua also taught us not to judge even of what the person cover or actions.
If I can get the audio of his teaching I will post it here but so far these are all I can write as I'm still feeling dizzy and I need to get to work (^_^)

What is True Happiness?

True happiness is not the nonexistence of pain, you cannot have a day after day of transparent skies. Genuine happiness lays in construction a self that stands majestic and determined. Contentment doesn’t mean having a life free of charge from all complexity by that whatever difficulties arise, without being traumatized in the least you can summon up the unflinching courage and conviction to fight and overcome them.

Psychology tell us that to be happy one must

• have sense of worth example wag mong sirain sarili mo meaning take good care of your self


• be in power on one’s life also means don't rely on being sad kasi nakita mo yung isang tao maiinis kana at masisira na araw mo, bakit siya ba may control sa buhay mo?


• have an optimistic point of view always look on the brighter side rather than the bad side of anything... example narin dito yung mga kasamahan mo, don't always criticize but rather see the good side or better yet help them improve themselves if you can (^_^)


• be dedicated to a righteous intention be a good example kung kaya mo kung hindi then just stay calm and relax but never doing the bad things


• significant employment and amusement work like you're working with amusement waaa kaya mo yun? I was happy to find the work I want and amuse with the working environment


• uphold permanent and loving relationships for me keep only positive relationships (^_^) throw away negative

Ultimate happiness is determine by the degree to which we established a solid self. This self is actually true self of one’s life.

I remember my second degree cousin told me her name is Sister Gilda Peñafiel,I memorize and understood it by heart here are the lines:

Isis Dearest,

Happiness is something created in our mind.
It is not something you searched and so seldom find.
It’s just waking up and beginning the day
By counting our blessings and kneeling to pray
It’s giving up wishing for things we have not
And making the best of whatever we’ve got
It’s knowing that life is determined for us,
And pursuing our tasks without fret, fume or fuss
For it’s by completing what God gives us to do
That we find real contentment and happiness too.


To share with you a beautiful thought that is already a part of me and which can be yours too. God Bless you. ~Sister Gilda, RVM (1998 Letter)

To everyone, happiness and contentment is the key to fountain of youth. Take it from me ~ Aice nice concepts (^_^)

Spending time with My Crush

Don’t know why, all of the sudden, I wished to spend time with my Crush.

Actually, honestly, precisely, seriously …
what you see is what you get! Ahihih!

ok now…

Actually: I have 9 guys that I admire but only one of them is the most.

Honestly, two are in Luzon now but the other one reside here in Mindanao (we met tru blogging) I like the way he thinks, talks, and how he handles his career and life style. He is Good in web developing. And text me every now and then.
While the other one is from Luzon; we knew each other in one organization hindi ko nalang mention what org kasi parang obvious na kung sino eh (^_^) if you were reading my ice 9 web blogs from the beginning you won’t have hard time knowing who he is. He still text me every now and then.

Precisely, two are in Visayas: hmmm the other one I met thru mahiya ako ma buking! … pano kaya hmmm learning? Is a part of … eh…tion? Basta nasa Visayas siya ngayon (^_^)
the other one thru hmmm (madali kasi ma buking eh) lalo na sa mga close friends ko (^_~)
both of them have leadership qualities, one is excellent in computer while the other is not so good in computers but both of them has something that I really admire the most: their attitude, goal, the way he thinks of philosophy and determination in life.
the other one has serious lifestyle while the other one has very occupied lifestyle.

Seriously, five are here in Mindanao:
Ahihih! Lima talaga ano?
Well what can I say, I met so many good nice guys in my circle of friends but most of them are taken (Y_Y)
meaning may girl friend na pero single parin! Kung baga admiration nalang nothing more kapag taken na!
Four of them I met at my work place, (or five bah ^_^)
The other one is accidentally last year 2007 election time; while I was processing my papers after my graduation at the Sanguniang Panglungsod and I was looking for a job in government. Tapos may media pa noon it was ABS-CBN they were monitoring who won in the election. Ewan bakit ako napadaan doon sabi kasi doon pumunta eh, tapos he approached me asking am I looking for something? I said with a smile “yeah a job!”, he laugh and said “ok pass your resume to me I will help you find a job, you want in the government?” I replied “yes sir” he asked for CS exams, license etc… napakita ko TESDA kasi wala pa ako nag CS exam noon eh…

Anyway, I prayed to spend time with my crush.

Most of them, I have already spend time with… and aware now it will be just an admiration and nothing more “ kasi nga may girl friend eh Y_Y grrr good guys are always taken ”.

Only 5 left; (two in Mindanao, two in Visayas, one in Luzon) that I haven’t spend time with… I do not know if they are still single, available or NOT in a complicated relationship.

What a surprise my wish was granted I did spend time with my crush.
The Two guys who are in Mindanao (^_^)
I think if you really ask with all of your heart, your wish will be granted!

But unfortunately I found out thru spending time with them….
First was the other one, was IN a complicated relationship,
while the other one had a wife and kids (T_T) waaa!!!
both of them are taken (again! Wa!)

I will go details in the other one which has more impact because hmmm ewan basta!
He asked me out kasi before, the one I met accidentally, but I said I was busy, since I was really busy (being at night shift and I was the project manager at that time, I really had no time for going out except meeting with admin),
he calls at our house my mother will always answer and said I’m fast asleep kasi nga night shift. Sinasabi lang sa akin ni mama kapag nagising ako which is 6pm! “____ called sino yun?” so I will explain “oh I met him at ____....” wala lang sa akin that time because I know although he was on my crush list it was just an acquaintance call, may be involving me to a government activities which I had no time. He is one of the politician here in our City. There was one time he text me hiring to be his computer secretary, I was surprise didn’t he remember I told him I’m on night shift or maybe he just forgot kasi busy , so I replied “I'm already employed as web developer…”

I received a text from him from time to time but not regularly, I replied some of his text but not all kasi ayoko ma involve sa mga government activities

Then he asked around this month of July, “if we can see each other”, hmmm I finally gave him a chance since he is still on my crush list (^_^) and beside I’m not busy, the time was right, day shift after 5:00pm ok mag-kita.

We went to early dinner around 6pm, I was prepared for KKB ^_^,

Moving on and on , to cut my story short;
This time I guess it will be just friendship he is not on my crush list anymore Waaa! I don’t want to break one of the Ten Commandments “Thou shall not commit adultery”

What happen? Click niyo yung early Dinner date

There are still some guys left I haven’t spend time with personally that are on my crush list . Still wondering what it would be like? To really fall in love (having “personal” relationship)
Hoping one of them will be meant for me. My wishes… (dreams not yet real) .

I learned to open my eyes to all aspects, not only those on my Crush List.
It’s really annoying to be “drop dead” from excitement!

Diba tell me what you’re thinking … have you ever felt that way?

The Meaning of Trinity

I have been waiting for to own an earrings with trinity design (^_^) (nan dito na yung image ng earrings)

Surprisingly, trinity wasn’t mention in any statements of the Bible, why?
Because it was the symbolism created that means: The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost/Spirit in other words it was mention as “the father, the son and the holy ghost” not the word “trinity”. Trinity is three circles formation joint together it says that The Father can be the Son or the holy Ghost, but the holy Ghost can not be the Father nor the Son can be the Father. For illustration here is the picture [image source: wikipedia]

Here are my research:

The word "Trinity" came from Latin, Trinitas began to be used around the year 200. This Latin word means "three, a triad", from the abstract noun form the adjective trinus (three each, threefold, triple), like the word unitas is the abstract noun formed from unus (one).

The Greek term used for the Christian Trinity, "Τριάς" ("Trias", gen. "Triados") means "a set of three" or "the number three",[6] and has given the English word triad. The word "trinity" itself is not found in the Christian Bible, any more than is the word "monotheism", but Christians in general believe that what is meant by these two words is taught in the Bible.

The doctrine of the Trinity is the result of continuous exploration of the Bible by the church, argued in debate and treatises. The concept was expressed in early writings from the beginning of the second century forward.

The first recorded use of the word "Trinity" in Christian theology was in about AD 180 by Theophilus of Antioch who used the corresponding word in Greek (Τριάς) to refer to "the Trinity, of God, and His Word, and His wisdom", of which he considered the first three days of creation to be types.[8][9] He did not apply the word to the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Neither of the words "Trinity" nor "Triunity" appear in the Old Testament or New Testament. Various passages from both have been cited as supporting this doctrine, while other passages are cited as opposing it.

The Old Testament refers to God's Word, his Spirit, and Wisdom. These have been interpreted as adumbrations of the doctrine of the Trinity, as have been also narratives such as the appearance of the three men to Abraham in Genesis 18. Some Church Fathers believed that a knowledge of the mystery was granted to the Prophets and saints of the Old Dispensation, and they identified the divine messenger of Genesis 16:7, 21:17, 31:11, Exodus 3:2, and Wisdom of the sapiential books with the Son, and "the spirit of the Lord" with the Holy Spirit. However, it is generally agreed that it would go beyond the intention and spirit of the Old Testament to correlate these notions directly with later Trinitarian doctrine.

The New Testament does not use the word "Τριάς" (Trinity) nor explicitly teach it, but provided the material on which the doctrine of the Trinity is based. It required reflection by the earliest Christians on the coming of Jesus Christ and of what they believed to be the presence and power of God among them, which they called the Holy Spirit; and it associated the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in such passages as the Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19) and Paul the Apostle"s blessing: "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all" (2 Corinthians 13:14), while at the same time not contradicting the Jewish Shema Yisrael: "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord" (Deuteronomy 6:4).

Now the I’m looking forward to have the trinity pendant. Ahihihi (^_^)
