Holding Hands

“Yes I am with you always, until the very end of time” - Jesus Christ
faithtalkministries.com

I remember years of going home late from school after teaching evening classes, I would always end up walking from the gate of the subdivision where we live to our house! 
It was a long walk, dark, and I was always on my own! What kept me safe, sound and secured the whole time was Jesus!
As soon as I stepped down from the jeepney (popular means of transportation in the Philippines), I would say my prayer! It was really more like a-friend-talking-to-a-friend-kind-of-communication. 
In my mind, I would say, "Jesus... here I am again! please hold my hand and let's walk together!" and I know he would do just that!
It was a good 10 minute walk and I felt his hands wrapped around my hands the whole time!
Thank you Jesus for every time I call your Name, You are there!
Thank you for the many times you have held my hand, while we were walking in the dark, you have kept me safe and secured. I felt so loved.
Up until now, You are still with me, and I know You will be until the end of time.
Amen.

    I have missed this kind of connection with God. I rarely go out of the house now.. But I always hope for the same protection..

    Amen to this full trust with the Lord Jesus Christ you've made. Everybody in Jesus is safe. With His hands everyone is held to their safety and assurance of being protected from any subtle craftiness of the devil. It's time to thank the Lord Jesus Christ.

    I would often imagine groping Jesus' hands whenever I feel lost and vulnerable and oftentimes, I would realize that he was holding me all along, I was so wrapped up in my problems that I missed his presence.

    Nothing is more comforting and secure than being in Christ's protection. It's a "jungle" out there but faith and prayer keep us safe. Thank you so much for sharing another inspiring story of your faith! God bless you always! :-)

    When we have no one else to turn to, we always turn back to the Lord.
    God bless :)

    it's always nice to talk to Him especially when you need security. Prayer gives peace of mind, always. Yahweh bless.

    As what God would always say, "ask and you shall receive....,"

    and I love the Lord so much, with all my life, that's why I decided to dedicate a part of my life through service and following his footsteps as well (not of the nailing on the cross) but a path to holiness

    :)

Outside the Box!

Welcome to WEALTHY TUESDAYS! Money-Matters!   Let’s me face the fact.  The fact is anything can happen.  Everything is possible and possibilities are infinite. Good. Wait! Everything? Is possible? Infinite possibilities? Yes. That’s correct. (It is only our mind that sets limits; try pushing your mind beyond the box!) I learned from seminars I’ve attended in the past that  “If the intention is clear, then the mechanism will appear.” Formula: Intention 100% + Mechanism 0% = Achieved Goal 100% If my intention, (belief, purpose, faith) is clear then the mechanism (activity, action, system) will appear! ~ and that will make me achieve my goal! 100% intention that is ALL IT TAKES! Wow! Then, let me be clear: “I want financial wealth; I want more money, so I could be of more service to people esp. to my family, relatives and friends.” and “I want financial wealth; I want more money, so I could enjoy more of life’s grandeu...

The cursed HOW

In my blog post “ Powerful Thoughts ”, I have written how powerful our mind is and whatever we create in our minds, if we believe, it will achieve! How-To-Request-A-Mortgage-Rate-Adjustment-F Honestly, I did not have any idea as to HOW it will happen – (flashback, my solution for our family to be together and not have my husband work as an OFW anymore was to migrate).  HOW? that was the question!   All I have was a belief that it will happen,  158Belief.jpg and for me to mentally picture what I want to happen, I have posted dollar bills,  talk incessantly about going to America someday,  kept a dollar in my wallet just to attract it…       What else? I went to DFA in Lucena to get our passports!  That was how determined I was! epass_trans_small-1.png My aunt asked me “where are you going Gi?”,   I told her to DFA, to get our passports. She asked, “Why?”  ...

Say IT!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/70285332@N00/3032368925 "Show what you feel in relationships. If you feel like crying, cry your eyes out! When you feel like laughing, laugh your eyes out. Scream when you want to scream. Roll on the floor. Surprise everybody!" "Please don’t wait to communicate your feelings!" This came from Leo Buscaglia 's book Living, Loving and Learning . (click his name to know more about it.) For now, you would have known that I am a fan! Yes, I am! Just Say IT! I hate it when my husband will not talk to me because I did something wrong! I do not know why he needs to pamper the pain!!! I am his exact opposite because I just simply communicate what I feel, well, tactless at times but, I need the communication part, so that when I’m done with it, then it’s done.   Just LET ME KNOW! There are people who are afraid to communicate their feelings to the point that instead of directly telling "what's bugging them" with the particular...
