Open our hearts,
To see the things
That make Your heart cry,
To be the church
The You would desire.
Light to be seen.

Break down our pride,
And all the walls
We've built up inside,
Our earthly crowns
And all our desires,
We lay at Your feet.

So let hope rise,
And darkness tremble
In Your holy light,
And every eye will see
Jesus, our God,
Great and mighty to be praised.

God of all days,
Glorious in all of Your ways.
Your majesty, the wonder and grace,
In the light of Your name.

With everything,
With everything,
We will shout for your glory.

With everything,
With everything,
We will shout forth your praise.

Our hearts will cry
Be glorified,
Be lifted high,
Above all names.
For You our King,
With everything,
We will shout forth your praise.

Woah...

Who is like You Lord in all the earth?
Matchless love and beauty, endless worth
Nothing in this world can satisfy
'Cause Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry

Your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me

Treasure of my heart and of my soul
In my weakness you are merciful
Redeemer of my past and present wrongs
Holder of my future days to come

Your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me
Heaven to me, God

Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me
Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me

All my days on earth I will await
The moment that I see You face to face
Nothing in this world can satisfy
'Cause Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
'Cause Jesus You're the cup that won't run dry
You never run dry

Your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me
Lord your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me

Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me
Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me

It's a revival of the very first worship song I remember from 1993 during the CIA days in Mangaldan. Brings back awesome memories for me as a baby Christian.

With it's music, for me it sends me the same as the message of "Dati Rati" by Gary Valenciano of  Remembering your first love - Revelation 2:1-7

For You Alone
You are the peace that guards my heart
My help in times of need
You are the hope that leads me on 
And brings me to my knees
For there I find you waiting and there I find relief
So with all my heart I'll worship
And unto you I'll sing
 For you alone deserve all glory
 For you alone deserve all praise
 Father we worship and adore you
 Father we long to see your face
 For you alone deserve all glory
 For you alone deserve all praise
 Father we love you and we worship you this day
 
Happy Music Monday to everyone!

It's your heart that knows who loves you, not your ears or eyes. Listen to the words, and you may be fooled. Look at the actions, and you can be fooled. Feel deeply into your heart, and then you will know the truth. Who makes your heart soar now? :)


Yes, of course, you want to control so everything happens in just the way you want it. But at the end of the day, we control nothing, - it's all in God's hands, - has always been, and will always be. So, do what you can, and then let go, and let God handle the rest.




God has equipped you with everything you need to fulfill your destiny through His Word. That means you are well able to do what He has called you to do. You can accomplish your goals. You can fulfill your dreams! You have the ideas, the creativity, and talent to be successful. You can overcome any obstacle. You’ve been armed with strength for every battle.
Not only has God equipped you, but He is also working on your behalf. He has already gone before you and lined up the right people and the right opportunities. You have everything you need to live a victorious life — you were created to excel!
You may not have seen it in the past, but if you’ll stay in faith, it’s just a matter of time; victory is on its way. Don’t settle where you are. Don’t have a weak, defeated mentality. Have the attitude, “I am anointed. I can accomplish my dreams. I can overcome any obstacle. I am empowered by the Creator of the universe, and I am thoroughly equipped for every good work that God has called me to!”


“Every Scripture is God-breathed...so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.”


Give yourself permission to be un-busy. Give yourself an hour or a day to simply be. Allow yourself the luxury of a small retreat. Allow your spirit time to be restored. Even God took a day of rest.



Joining Music Monday meme as I haven't done so in a long while! This is my way of sharing faith-filled music to everyone. May you also be inspired :) Happy MM to all!


"I Surrender" by Hillsong United

Here I am
Down on my knees again
Surrendering all
Surrendering all

Find me here
Lord as You draw me near
Desperate for You
Desperate for You

I surrender

Drench my soul
As mercy and grace unfold
I hunger and thirst
I hunger and thirst

With arms stretched wide
I know You hear my cry
Speak to me now
Speak to me now

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more
[x2]

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more
[x2]



I personally love watching the figures formed by the clouds, I am in awe of these simple wonders. My love for sky-watching has intensified since the days I've been having dreams of the heavenly skies to which I've sought for spiritual meaning.

Here's our piece of heaven, taken this Saturday...

You may think you have challenges, but you have so many blessings. Sometimes it takes only a moment of conscious effort to recognize those blessings. Once you focus on the gifts instead of the problems, your whole perspective will change and you will see blessings everywhere.


Thoughts To Ponder

Every time we pretend to love, we impoverish ourselves  more and more.



Music Monday again, folks! Am pleased to share this song Commission My Soul by Citipointe Live. It's a recent favorite of my teenage sons who let me listen to their collection of Christian songs. My prayer for everyone is to be blessed! Happy MM!
Commission My Soul

You bled with one desire

In all to bring new life

To a shattered humanity

Death now overcome

Forgiving all and one

You’ve redeemed all humanity


With all our lives we now stand

Declaring loud that

Jesus is God who saves

Commission my soul

With a fire uncontrollable

For this great cause

To save the lost

Open my eyes

To the reason I’m alive, oh’ Lord

I’m ready now

I’ll follow You

Abandon all to be

Your voice, Your hands, Your feet

My life a living sacrifice

Spirit empower me

To set the captives free

My life is an offering

With all our lives we now stand

Declaring loud that

Jesus is God who saves

Commission my soul

With a fire uncontrollable

For this great cause

To save the lost

Open my eyes

To the reason I’m alive, oh’ Lord

I’m ready now

I’ll follow You

Open the heavens wide

Open the heavens wide

Open the heavens wide

Pour out Your Spirit on us


Have you ever witnessed a skilled craftsman going into an old broken down home and restoring it into something fabulous? God is the master of restoration, taking the broken and damaged and making them beautiful. Are there some things in your life that could use a little work? Allow yourself to be God's next fixer upper project.


Thoughts to Ponder

You can find meaning in the storm

At times everyone goes through trials and tribulations. Seek out someone else in a similar situation and give them an encouragement or just a hug. Find meaning in the midst of your struggles by helping another in similar straits.




Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes to climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
To the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. 'Boy, you'll never win!'
"You'll never win"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
And the voice of truth says "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a Sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again "boy, you'll never win!
"You'll never win"

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth.

You were created to be alive.You weren't made to simply survive until you die. Live it up, embrace life. This entire planet exists for all God's creatures, - and that includes you.

God's Word is effective for any condition. It works as a preventative as well as a cure. There is no cost and no danger of taking an overdose. God's medicine works by taking His Word into your being. You do that by listening to the Word, reading the Word, and speaking the Word. You must fill your thoughts with the Word of God. The more of God's medicine you take, the better off you will be.

In Jesus Name, I cover myself and all my property with the blood of Jesus. I take authority over all demons of the night, bad dreams, nightmares, and sex dreams, and anyone or anything trying to get into my dreams, and I command them to stay away. I ask for giant warrior angels to protect me and my property as I sleep, through the night and the day. I ask for a fiery wall of protection around me. Amen.



There are just moments in random days that I look for inspirational quotes from Christian pastors and preachers. Such awesome quotes that indeed are quite so timely when I read them, just what I needed to keep me grounded and keep going.

Sharing a few of the tweets from Christian preachers to follow on Twitter:



@RickWarren Rick Warren

We learn faith through testing, hope through darkness, patience through delay.

You cannot make God stop loving you!You can try but you'll fail, because God's love is based on WHO HE IS, not what you do.

@MaxLucado Max Lucado

Courage does not panic; it prays. Courage does not bemoan; it believes.

Satan will bait the hook and dangle it before your eyes. Shortcuts will lure you. But don't even nibble. Do what pleases God.

@JoyceMeyer Joyce Meyer
God cares about everything that concerns you, so feel free to talk to Him about anything.

You can be full of pity or full of power. Stop blaming others and start taking responsibility for your behavior.

Keep walking in the light that you have until it becomes bright enough to dispel all the darkness in your life. –JoyceDon’t give up on the people you love. Your patient love and faithfulness may be exactly what they need to make a complete turnaround.

@KenHaginDaily Kenneth Hagin

the spirit, or the heart, believes in the Word regardless of seeing, hearing, or feeling.

Negative thoughts r like birds, u can't keep them from flyin around ur head but u can keep them from building a nest in ur hair


@JohnBevere John Bevere

God will always give you the grace to overcome any obstacle you encounter on the course in which He leads you.

Those who are growing in Christ know this fact, deep down: the greater the battle, the greater the victory.


@copelandnetwork Kenneth Copeland

God is an exalter. He wants to lift you above the anxiety and care the devil uses to pull you down. - Kenneth

Kung mayroon lamang akong 'sanlibong buhay
Hindi ipagkakait lahat sayo'y ibibigay
Gayon pa man sakin nag-iisang taglay
Ilalaan bawat saglit upang ibigin ka ng walang humpay

[CHORUS:]

Gaya ng dagat na hindi napapagal sa pag-alon
Puso ko ay sayo'y magmamahal sa habang panahon
Natatanging kayamanan ko'y ikaw ay sambahin
Wagas na pagsinta'y iyong dinggin kalakip ng awitin

The scripture says is Psalm 107:23, “They that go down to the sea and do business in deep waters, they will see the wonders of God.” Friend, you and I were created to do business in deep waters. In other words, we’re not supposed to have little dreams or little plans. We are supposed to have big dreams. We are supposed to go out into the deep things God has for us.

But understand, when you’re out there in the deep waters, you can’t touch the ground. You can’t see the shoreline, and at times, it can get a little rocky. You may not always see how things are going to work out. But, the scripture tells us that deep calls to deep. In other words, God is the one who has called you to the deep waters. He is with you, and He knows there are deep things on the inside of you. Remember, in deep waters, you are not alone. God is with you, and He’s causing those deep things inside of you to come forth.

If you feel like you are out in the deep today, if you feel like you are overwhelmed, remember, you are in the right place and God is with you. You will see His wonderful deeds in the deep, and you will fulfill the plan He has in store for you.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “They saw the works of the Lord, his wonderful deeds in the deep” (Psalm 107:24, NIV)

“The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree...”
(Psalm 92:12, NKJ)


Have you ever seen a palm tree in the midst of a great storm? That tree may be bent so far over that it’s almost touching the ground, but when the wind finally stops, that palm tree bounces right back up. What’s interesting is that while that palm tree is hunched over under the pressure of the storm, it is actually growing stronger?

The reason God said we’d flourish like a palm tree is because He knew there would be difficult times. He knew things would come against us to try to steal our joy and victory. God said, “You’re going to be like a palm tree because when the storms of life blow, you are going to come right back up stronger than before.” Nothing can hold you back! No weapon formed against you will prosper.

As you reflect on the events over the last year, remember, the storms you have encountered have only made you stronger. You are wiser, you are more alive, and you are headed for victory. You’re brightest days are right out in front of you! Always remember that with God on your side, nothing can hold you back!

FAITHFUL FATHER

Father I can't explain this kind of love, this kind of grace
I know, I still break your heart and yet you run to welcome me

(chorus)
This is my song of praise to you
For who you are and all that you do
from the moment my life began, you have been faithful

Father, I love the way you hold me close and say my name
I know, when my life is through my heart will find it's home in you

(chorus)

"And I'm still amazed when I think about the day that I returned.
Blinded by my own addictions and grief, I began my journey
expecting rejection, but secretly, secretly hoping for mercy
And while I was still a ways off rehearsing my lines, you saw me
and you ran to me... you ran to ME! And I began to speak and I said
"Father... I've been unfaithful and I am no longer worthy to be called
you son..."... "Welcome home son, I've been waiting for you!
I AM FAITHFUL! And I will always be your faithful father"

This is my song of praise to you
for who you are and all that you do
From the moment the world began
You have been faithful

(Repeat chorus)

You have been faithful, forever faithful...father
