My Quarantine Birthday 💗

Thank God for another year!💗


This year has been a very challenging year to me, to us. A lot of things happened and is still happening (actually) that really makes me feel anxious. Anxious about many things, my family's health, our safety, our future. I know you feel the same way too.

But then again, everything happens for a reason. God allows it so what we can do is to rely on Him, put our full hope and trust in God.

So even if my birthday was not the grandest, not the way I wanted to celebrate it, still, I want to thank God for giving me this day. Another year to be hopeful, another year to start anew!

God made me realized that the best presents are not the material things, but the gifts that comes from Him.

I am thanking God for my gifts:


Gift of Life

Life comes from God. My existence will not be possible without my Creator. 

And yes! I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Thank you God!


Gift of Family

-> My husband Jez who's always there for me. My greatest fan & supporter who loves me and Brielle more than himself. Thank you daddy for always there, for taking care of me and Brielle. We love you to the moon and back too! #toJezfinityandBelleyond

-> My Baby Brielle - Mommy and Daddy's greatest gift! Our source of inspiration, strength and joy (aside from God). 

-> My Mama & Papa, Ate's & Gab who's virtually always there! I know I am always in their hearts & prayers too!

-> My In-Laws - for the continuous support & love to our small family.

-> Extended Family / Relatives - every one of you whom I know cares & loves not just me but my entire family. 



Gift of Friends

-> Closest Friends - you know who you are! Virtual encouragements & chickahan is always there. Looking forward to our next eye to eye, heart to heart talks and kulitan moments! Real soon, please!

-> Friends, Classmates, Churchmates, Facebook Friends & Acquaintances - For all your prayers, simple "hi" & "hello" & encouraging social media posts. Keep it up!



Gift of Work

-> I am very thankful to God that even with this pandemic, I still have work. Many of us lost a job or still under no work no pay. I am praying that God will continue to bless & guide our company, our employers big time so they can help more people out there! (Of course, praying also for all the companies that were greatly affected by this pandemic. I pray that in God's perfect time, we will all enjoy a COVID-Free world and every business will be back to normal. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen!)



Gift of Salvation

-> Of course, I cannot forget this greatest gift of mine. The gift of salvation. I know that I am secure, that God is holding me. Nothing to worry because I have Jesus in my heart. 

John 3:16

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.


Here's one song that popped in my mind as soon as I woke up. It's only by God's grace that I am still standing! It's because of His goodness, His grace, His kindness, His mercy, His love (unconditional & unending), His favor! I love you God!


PS:

Thank you for all your birthday wishes! God bless us all!

What is Missing?

Prayer is an essential thing to people who believes in Jesus. It is our 24/7 connection with the Lord. Many refer prayer as our lifeline to heaven. We pray because we want to talk to God. During our childhood days, we often pray to ask God for something. For teens/youth, it's like talking to their best friend, telling God, everything they encountered and even praying for the so-called "the one" 😉. We pray to thank God for all the blessings we are receiving. But often times we pray to ask. We pray for our needs. We pray to ask guidance for all the decisions we need to make. We pray for good health and His protection.  Many of us wonder why our longstanding prayers seem "unanswered" that makes us think God is not hearing us. Sometimes there will come a point that we tend to stop praying for it, either you accept that you get a "NO" from God or you gets tired of praying. Questions keep running our head, bothers us, faith is being shaken that we often jum...

Hello there! 💕 It’s been almost 4 months now, and we are still in Community Quarantine due to this pandemic. The world is facing a hard time fighting this unseen virus, but we must not lose hope for there’s a rainbow 🌈 always  after the rain! Above all, we have a Great God that is in control 🙏.   With the lockdowns going, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what to do during this pandemic; as a mom, as a wife or just simply as “ Myself ”. I want to do something meaningful; I want to end the fear, the anxiety, the boredom; I want to create something that will express myself. Way back 2019, after giving birth to my baby Brielle, I started filming myself, talking to my phone camera, recording stuff that I think I might use someday (the day I will do my own YT channel! Haha!). But I was not able to pursue it because of the following reasons: I am not ready, I have limited resources, I am not artistic, I am not “videogenic” and of course, I am busy attending to my newborn b...

The day I officially became a Momma!

Hello there  💗 ! As I was playing with my baby Brielle today, I was reminded of the time I gave birth to her. It just came to my mind out of nowhere. Maybe because seeing how big she is now and the milestones she's showing us, I'm kinda amazed. How time flies really fast! And made me reminisce those days. A very roller coaster experience for a first time preggy wife. :) Brielle @ 13 months So lemme share you the painful (literally) but one of the happiest times of my life - giving birth to Brielle Margaux. I wanted to share this because I was not able to testify this in our church. I really wanted to, but no chance. So maybe, this is the right time. 😘 Disclaimer:  This may not be an interesting topic for you, but I want to share how God really blessed, protected and showed His love to us during that big day of mine. God plans everything. This is the first lesson I learned. We're told that my expected delivery will be on June 2 (that is when Brielle is just 5 mon...
