First Week High

Who would have thought I will resign from my previous job? With the recent economic turnaround, I always saw myself being laid off one day. Worse comes to worst, I may not even finish a one-year contract. Not that I am looking forward to it but I was always anxious of my job.

Despite the pessimism though, here I am today- sitting by myself in a little habitat labeled with my complete name. It is the last day of my first work week in my new workplace. Not as busy as the first day, but equally overwhelmed.

I am too blessed! This job is truly an answered prayer.

Thanksgiving '10

It’s this time of the year again!

What am I grateful for this year?
My 2009 list here
PLUS
all the BLESSINGS great and small
that were beautifully unfolded this year…

1st Quarter:

Wedding anniversary trip to Gatlinburg, TN-
it’s our 3rd year!
T’was one freezing but extremely fun celebration. 
Looking forward to N more years of us…

2nd Quarter:

Graduation trip to Fairfield, IA- finally got my diploma! 
Had a great reunion with old friends from the university 
and loved to see my little church family there.


3rd Quarter:

Unexpected trip to the Philippines-
this may sound too ironic of me.
Yes, that’s right.
There’s no amount of pain reliever that can soothe what
I and my family went through
but hey, God is good! 
And He remains oh so good regardless
of the circumstances we’re in.
In everything, give thanks 
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you..
1 Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV)
It is most difficult to comprehend His words
at this most difficult time in my life.
But who am I?
He is God and He knows what He’s doing.
And I choose to trust and hold on to His promises.
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, 
to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 (KJV) 


4th Quarter:

All-expense paid trip to Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN-
stayed in a nice hotel,
ate sumptuous meals,
drove around town
and all for free!!! 

My 29th birthday- another year to celebrate life. 

And a greener pasture to thread on… 
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, 
saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, 
to give you an expected end. 
Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV)


There goes the highlights. 
Hope your actual list of items
to be grateful for
is endless like mine.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE... 

Welcome Gift


 Lord, I don't want to miss your blessings 
just because 
they are not packaged as I expected...

  1. APOLOGIES!!! I have been really lazy, too bland to blog something.

  1. My heart’s still in the process of recuperating from our family’s loss. I miss Papang everyday… And when weeping ain’t good enough, I resolve my grief to good memories. That’s all I have of him.

  1. I wish some people are sensitive enough to know or realize that I am still hurting. And the least I could take is to hear them complain about life…

  1. Things happen... Life changes… Constant reminder to self: God remains all the same- a great good God! And for that, I remain grateful.

  1. I love fall and everything that comes with it- cooler days and nights, comforters, boots, turtlenecks and the lovely foliage of the season.

  1. I am enjoying our frequent trips to thrift shops these days. I find pleasure in getting great stuff for less.

  1. Thank God it’s Friday. J
