" You are already important"

You are already important
You have nothing to prove to anyone.
You are the offspring of a remarkable Creator.
Your gifts and talents have been placed within you.
Find what they are and CELEBRATE THEM.
Find ways to use those gifts to improve others
and help them achieve their dreams and goals.

But never, never, exhaust and waste your energies
trying to prove something to somebody else.
You need only to have an honest effort to please God.
Your worth is not found in what others think of you.
It is found in how God looks at you"

- Mike Murdock "Leadership Secrets of Jesus"

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Monday- spent time with the family, work after
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Tuesday- ENLI and dinner with Mike, Mayette, Michelle and Cai
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Wednesday- small group, 1 to 1 with Poupe,
by this time I am working til am
What's my goal here? Huh! I'm pretty busy and in between I do alot of contacting here and there trying to make sure that saturday group is perfect and cool for practices.
I'm enjoying my life to the full so much that I am meeting people, building strong and lasting friendships, both in and outside work. I know this free time will never pass again and i need to maximize it. So when the floor is given to me, i make sure that I impart because that is the very purpose why I am still single. When I'm married, I will be focused in pleasing my husband and keeping my home.
Now is the time to do anything my schedule will allow me to: travel, do missions, read my favorite books, read 10 chapters of the Word daily, meet people, enjoy friendships and make a difference in their life.
Surely there's more to this life than living and dying, more than just trying to make it through the day, that is living your life for others and for God.

Happy Talk

Happy, happy, happy talk...talk about the things you like to do....(South Pacific). We all love to talk but we all need to be careful because we will have to give an account on the day of judgment for every careless word we have spoken(Mt12:36). The tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. (James 3:5) 1 Peter 2 1Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind Yeah, even in Christian circles, we need to be careful of this evil-----Slander. I have been entangled by this as an unwilling prey this past week I was perceived by that one person that I am praying for Him (no offense to the brother because we already cleared the issue and have patched up our differences) These items circling around Christian circles specially around single people is not only unpleasant to God but it gives very little room for possible pure friendships because it always threatens...

I want the Pearl but God will give me the Diamond- Wait for the Best!

. Lately I am faced with different issues of people almost picking the second best. It's true that the enemy of BEST is GOOD. Too many times we would think that something is good enough for us but God has planned what is best and that is what I want. Far be it from me to choose for myself again nor orchestrate events on my own. I want God to pen my lovestory. "The right person at the right time is the wrong person just as much as the wrong person at the right time is the wrong person". Here's a famous letter about waiting............ . Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, to have a deep relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But to His child, the Lord says: "No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved by Me; with giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me to have an intensely personal relationship with Me alone, discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found...
