The Answers to your Questions




Now is the age of "How to" flooding the Google search engine. Almost everything can be learned through the information superhighway. Whenever we find answers to our questions, we resort to quickly grabbing our laptop and search the answers right there because its simply fast and efficient.








But what if Google could not give the answer you need most?




Where do you turn to find the answers?




Technology has influenced our daily lifestyles very much. It is helpful because it's efficient but it doesn't contain all the answers that we need because it's made by humans and we are not perfect.



When Mr. Google could not give you the answers you need, turn to your Lord who made his promise not to leave you. (Hebrews 13:5)



This doesn't mean that Lord Jesus Christ is your last resort. 
That's a big no no.

Why would you search for the answers if you can find them all in his word?




All the answers a man needs are just quietly sitting in the Bible's pages waiting for you to open and read it. Man himself could have hidden all the answers to his questions  for  he had kept his Bible away in the shelf unopened and dusty.






Turn to the Lord in the midst of your difficulty, for He is your refuge and strength. When trouble hits, He's there with you to calm your fears. (Psalms 46:1-2)




With help from Him, all your thirsts for answers even the most unthinkable and complicated  will be given to you with  great joy and grace.

How i Hated Mondays!!!





Are you one of those people who doesn't long for Monday to come?


I have been scourged by that feeling for two years but not until the word of God spoke to me a couple of days ago.


I used to spend my weekends staying at home sleeping and fattening myself with food in order to relieve myself from all the stress that have accumulated during the working days.





I had relief and comfort but when Sunday afternoon strikes, the feeling of idleness and worry comes for my weekend relaxation period is over and that I have to prepare myself again for the following days of work to come.I know a friend who rushes home immediately after the mass because he longs for a deep sleep and prepare himself for the following days. Hehehe!






I wished that weekends could have been more than two days!



I wished that there were 8 days in a week!



Yes I acted like a poor child.



But God showed His mercy to me.


The Easter celebration has enlightened me to celebrate each day for Christ is risen and He is always with me through my ups and downs. Every morning when I see the sun rises in the sky, it gives me hope and chance to correct the mistakes of yesterdays and live to follow his footsteps and not on my own understanding nor on the things I see. I leave all my fears, worries and anxieties to Him because I know that he comforts me and renews my strength 24/7. 


Praise God that he unselfishly gives us the sun everyday. How dark and gloomy it could be if the sun never rises again.


So now, let us welcome each Monday mornings with gladness and gratitude in our hearts for new opportunities are given to live by His example and not by our own.
