About a love, more faithful than the morning

I am so BLESSED to experience this AWESOME, LIFE CHANGING event in my life when I encountered Jesus Christ, accepted Him as my Lord and Savior and SURRENDERED everything to Him.

Let me share a brief story about my "Christian" Life before. I grew up with a Christian Family. I'd been in a Sunday School, attended D.V.B.S. (Daily Vacation Bible School) as well. And yes! I enjoyed what I had been doing as a part of Children Ministry.

Growing up, I'd been in to the point of asking "Is this what the real Christianity is?" And I admit that my relationship with God became COLD.. The enemy took advantage on me, sinning became a normal routine of my life. Bad words, cheating, talking back to my parents, lying, etc. And I also was a 'SUNDAY CHRISTIAN'. On fire on Sunday but the other days, I am a sinner. 

I thought I'll be like this all my life. I thought I'll be HOPELESS forever. But still, God made a way for me to get back to Him. One day, my friend, Abbygail Canono, invited me to go to GROUNDED, youth service in Victory Alabang. And when the first time I attended grounded, I really felt that God is with me. I felt His Holy Spirit. I just cried and cried and cried. And I also had  goose bumps. And even when I got home, I was so excited to share this experience to my parents. And they were so glad that I had that encounter with God. And since that day, I started to have a deep relationship with God.Now I know what the real Christianity is. I know why I am called to be a Christian. Because of God alone and no other reasons. Now I know what Christ did for me, that because of his Grace I have the power to say no to SINS and be saved through Jesus Alone.

I also had a 121 discipleship with my leader, Cassandra Cereza and Victory Weekend last November 2-3, 2012. Now, I have a mission, to let others experience God's love as well. To be an instrument of God to reach out others just like what Abbygail did to me. And I am so excited for the others to experience God's love as well. This heart changing experience that can change your life and your walk with God. The old me has gone, the new ENAH has come. :)

And I want to take this opportunity to honor those who helped me in my walk with God. My parents, my leader, Cassandra Cereza, my Groundeez friends and my ON-FIRE classmates. :)

"You didn't choose me. I chose You"- John 15:16

Whom Shall I fear?

FEAR. One word, pero sobrang powerful. It can control a person's life, hindrance to your dream or worst is, it can destroy YOU. Pero paano ba natin malalabanan yan e parang kasama na yan sa lifestyle ng isang tao? From the moment you wake up, hanggang sa pagtulog mo. Fear is with you. But if you think na imposibleng hindi mo ma-oovercome 'yang fear na yan, let me burst your bubbles, nothing is impossible with God who creates everything. Including your fear.

PHOBIA-defined as a persistent fear of an object. If you'll search the list of phobia, I'll give you a hint na marami talaga. Meaning marami tayong kinakatakutan. And I admit that I also have a phobia. I have a fear of rats or mice, MUROPHOBIA. I HATE RATS!!! Bata palang ako ayoko na nun. Lalo na yung mga black? OH MY!!!

I had an experience of having a fear to a person. Yung feeling mo may gagawin sayo 'tong taong to kaya hindi ka maka labas or maka lakad ng mag-isa lang. Pero it is amazing on how God changed my mindset. Bakit nga ba ako natatakot sa isang tao/bagay na wala naman kayang gawin akin? Bakit ako matatakot sa daga kung alam kong mas powerful ako sa kanya? Bakit ako matatakot sa sasabihin ng ibang tao kung sa lahat naman ng gagagwin mo may sasabihin sila? Bakit ako mahihiya sa mga tao eh si God lang naman ang kelangan kong i-please?  Kung mag re-rely lang tayo kay God, wala tayong dapat katakutan. Trust in Him. Try and tested na yan.  Put your fear into the hands of God and everything will be fine. In Him, kaya mong ma-overcome yung fear na yan. Kasi baka hindi mo alam, isang malaking blessing ang hinahadlangan ng fear mo na yan.

So, do you trust Him enough to let Him handle your fears?

"The Lord is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me? (NLT)"-Hebrews 13:6
