My soul longs for YOU!


I was a member of Christ Youth in Action in college days; Lingkod ng Panginoon after college days ; and Ang Familya ng Panginoon after getting married.

I honestly miss those days! I miss my friends in the community!
I miss attending prayer meetings; sharing and listening to personal testimonies and especially fellowships!

Maybe, we'll be a part of that community again. I hope someday soon.

For the mean time, here's sharing with you one of my favorites.

AS THE DEER

As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after Thee.
You alone are my heart's desire
and I long to worship Thee.

You alone are my strength, my shield
To you alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship Thee.


You may download the song here.

NAMASTE.

    Hello sis Gemma! I'm so thrilled to know that you're also a member of Ang Lingkod ng Panginoon. Which branch are you in? I also have friends who were from CYA and went to ALNP. :D Once a Lingkod, always a lingkod. God bless you sis.
    By the way, I'm from lingkod Los Banos.

    P.S. This song is one of my faves!

    Fellowship sessions are so spiritually uplifting.
    Knowing that people join hands in worshiping
    the FATHER and praising HIM through songs...
    just inspirational.

    This is such a beautiful and uplifting song which always reminds me of my very active religious life back in the Philippines. This song particularly, played mostly in the recollections and retreats that i have had, give more meaning to me now because I honestly miss those fellowship and church activities.

    It is poles apart to compare the difference between how we celebrate masses and how important going to the church not just on Sundays but everyday. Here in England, Catholic churches are only open on Sundays, at specific time,and because i was used to go the church almost everyday back home I feel lonely and incomplete as far as my faith is concerned. But that's the way it is here so we just have to pray in our own ways at home.

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...

Overspeeding!!!

credit While driving, a police car passed me by, turned around and followed me. I slowed down.  credit It gave a warning for me to stop. I did.  I was running a lot of excuses in my mind but decided to put it all aside. I prayed instead - Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be. A police women came. "Hi!" I said, "Hello!" "Ok", she said, "I pulled you over, because you were running at 60mph in a 45 lane". I said "I'm sorry". She said "Now do you have driver's license, registration and insurance?" I said, "Yes". There was a pause (Oh, I guess, this was the time when I should have given her everything already), she repeated, "So, you do have your driver's license, registration and insurance?" I said, "Yes", and took out my driver's license.  She took it, and said, "so you've never been stopped before?" I said, ...
