The Real SECRET




“Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33




I am not sure about the beliefs you were brought up with, but when I was growing up, Mommy would always remind me to keep my goals to myself. 


She said, not everyone will support you, not everyone will understand why you want what you want. 



So, she tells me the best way is to let whatever your heart is telling you to do, or to happen in your life be between you and God first. 





Then take a step towards it, do what needs to be done, and then you’ll see miracles happening.

I believe this is the real secret. GOD. To seek Him first, His plans and His will for us. 


... and for sure, all our hopes, dreams and desires will be ours. 


And so it is.

    This is my father's favorite verse! Tama nga, He alone blesses everything and unless you figure that out, the blessings are senseless!

    Inspiring. Nothing is impossible with God and when you believe you can, other are just opinions and they don't matter.

    Yes, I agree. Not everyone will understand us and extend their support to us (sometimes even the family members)... but thank God! He will always understand us... and He'll be there at our side whispering "I'll be with you no matter what, stay with me too". Love that verse: “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you” Matthew 6:33"

    Nice advice from mommy!

    Whatever goals or plans you have, consult with God first then pray for it. If you find peace then take action

    Its true. What we all need to remember is that at the end of the day, it is only ourselves that we can rely on.

    I strongly agree with this. God will work wonders for you and your goals if you believe in him.

    GOD is everyone's SECRET weapon.
    Our strength comes from our faith in HIM.
    Whatever we aim to do will be guided by one
    spirit and that is... HIS HOLINESS.

    Being in Europe for almost half of my life now, it's been a challenge for me to talk about faith.

    Unlike the Philippines, which is predominantly Christian, we almost take it as given to talk about our faith very openly, and know we will be understood.

    My first trip abroad, I stayed in an Arab country, and a year later in Germany and now we are settled in the Netherlands. Travelling has been a childhood dream a goal as I became an adult.

    This is the first thing that came to my mind when I read this post - how in reaching my goals, I became closer to God, how it strengthened my faith.

Redirecting Thoughts!

Sometimes, we forget to take control of our minds. There are times that we just do a lot of things out of habit. We do a lot of things unconsciously. These days, whenever I find myself “thinking”, I am making sure I am thinking productive things. What will I do next?; What are my plans today?;How will I go about today’s activities? If alone in the car, driving, I’d deliberately turn on the positive, encouraging radio station, since their kind of music is good for the soul. I could listen and know that it is all good. As much as possible, I try not to think of negative or bad things. Why? Because I’ve proven that whenever I do that, it boomerangs on me! There was this one time when I felt so pissed off with my husband that my mind was just creating all these negative vibes! Asked what happened next? The more my husband got pissed off. I wasn’t even saying anything, it was all mind power, and it hasn’t done any good! So I experimented the next time it happened, ins...

Vitamins for the Mind

Vitamins for the Mind   by Jim Rohn Results At the end of each day, you should play back the tapes of your performance. The results should either applaud you or prod you. The greatest form of maturity is at harvest time. This is when we must learn how to reap without complaint if the amounts are small and how to reap without apology if the amounts are big. Life asks us to make measurable progress in reasonable time. That's why they make those fourth grade chairs so small—so you won't fit in them at age 25! There are some things you don't have to know how it works, only that it works. While some people are studying the roots, others are picking the fruit. It just depends on which end of this you want to get in on.    "Vitamins for the Mind" is a weekly sampling of original quotes on a specific topic taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn. The burgundy hardbound book with gold-foil lettering is a collection of...

Jack of All Trades

My parents gave me all the opportunities to try and do different activities while growing up. I did ballet. I had swimming lessons ; I joined theatre arts ; I had piano recitals ; I learned bicycling; I played volleyball; I was one of the editors in our school paper. I was even a member of University Quiz Bee contest called "Pautakan", representing our college for 3 years! In high school, I admired students who could do Impromptu Speeches. You see, I could memorize long scripts, I could compose essays but to speak my mind in a contest? Whoa! I guess, I carried that thought - wishful thinking with me, even after college, that it led me to become a member of Toastmaster's International in Makati, Philippines and then here in Gallup, NM, USA! Do I still know how to ballet dance? Mmmm... Lol! Swim? Mmmm... not where I can't touch the floor or sand, OK?  hehe Play piano? Mmmm... I can do two piano pieces? Will that count? hahaha Act? Oh yes! Could...
