perfect love casts out fear

1 John 4:18 (NASB)
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

My biggest fears in life include the following:
v Losing our house =(
v Not knowing where to stay
v Failing my exams (MS FE)
v Cancer (this is too morbid, but both sides have it)
v Dying doing something I am not supposed to do
v That I might fail with another relationship
v That I might expect much and give to little
v Getting married (dati I was so sure that I do want to get married, siguro pressured pa din o dahil sa failure sa previous relationship indecisive pa din ako)
v Giving birth
v Knowing that I might not be able to conceive (this is more scary than the previous)
v Kissing the frog instead of the prince charming

But perfect love casts all fears. I just got to rely on His help to overcome my fears. His love is stronger than all there is in the world.

Haaay, Lord. “When all these troubles (and all else) come to mind, please remind me that You are in control.”

With that I remembered one of my previous posts:

I like this game… It makes me think and understand life and my purpose more =)

Happiness is not measured on how much one has achieved. It is in knowing that you have a purpose in life that one can truly be happy!

Lastly, living involves taking risks. No risk no reward!

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."
---J.R.R. Tolkien

rushes

ok so i don't have the time to write much. er, i did had the time to write but i was writing my term paper. i should have said i don't have the time to blog much. (oh my, i'm beginning to sound so nerd)

so here are the rushes:
(rushes are those i intended to write in details but failed due to time constraint.)

Scholarship!

Ayiy! I just want to thank all those who've helped me in my most stressful finals week. It was during my birthday btw that all of these requirements went due. So there i was rushing to finish my case study and term paper to meet the deadline and meet my professors' expectations, just so i could have the required 2.5 average for my scholarship.

And thank you, thank you, thank you Lord for granting me this gift. I had longed for a new rainbow but he gave me something new. God humors! God giveth and He giveth more than you could even expect.

Remember when I said I will postpone my birthday to Sept 7, He also postponed His birthday gifts. My scholarship and my trip to dumaguete, which is the next subject of my rushes.

DuMagUeTe =)

I had a fun fun fun time last Sept 6-7. I went to dumaguete for an official business kuno sa site. I love the place. Ganda. Nature! Mountain! Beach! Fruits as in fruitssssssss! and the lovely and friendly people of Dumaguete. Thank you. Thanks din sa company and my bosses who allowed me to go on that trip.


I won't be able to leave the office for a while since I will be busy with the forecast for 08. Besides classes just started.

my new prof!

He's funny. As in very funny! And He knows how to teach, how to make the students understand the lesson. Yun lang. Ask me again after 3 months - when the term ends.

Churc's Anniv

Last Sunday of September! I hope we could celebrate the goodness of God in the church and to our live to the fullest! Happy Anniv!

Erap guilty
