Battlescars

I faced several storms the past weeks. Work was not that good, i'm succumbed to stress and pressure. My mind was so drained and my body was out of rest. I am so helpless. I had a hard time waking up everyday. Heaviness was all over me. But guess what, I still managed to work because I had no choice. 

I reached the point of realizing that no matter how best of efforts I give to accomplish things, it will never be enough to certain people. This actually made work the most uncomfortable to deal with. All through those weeks, I wished to evaporate and not be seen by people.

Somehow, I knew I got bitterness in my heart. When I got home from work, I'll directly went to my bed to lie down and close my eyes to whisper words to God, asking Him to give me strength to face another day when tomorrow comes and to keep on holding me, most specially my heart. 

And as I woke up today, God gave me a certain word, "BATTLESCARS".

It was very painful and deep which brought me to my knees. Everything flashedback.  I got so flooded with so much sentiments of His grace. I figured out without the Lord, I wouldn't be reaching this day and suddenly, I felt strength, hope and forgiveness were all at my heart. Then, my mouth began to open and sang songs of worship to Him while I was feeling all the battlescars in my life and how God made me victorious all the way around. And with tears running down, I told Him, "God, thank You for not giving up on me".

With all my heart, I thank the Lord for every trial, for every difficulty, for every breaking that He has allowed me to go through. They're my great testimonies to tell every time. This is not to lift myself up but this is to honor the God who were with me the whole time. As what apostle Paul said,

Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 1:31 NIV

Thank You Lord for everything, for these BATTLESCARS! 

And to those people who left, to those who were with me, to those who chose to stay and fight with me, I am grateful for the lessons and the gift of friendship. I am not fond of naming names, but you are all in my heart. The Lord bless you and keep you all!

BEAUTIFUL IN PIECES

My mind seems to wonder, it flies and speaks of a thousand tries .. Well, let me say this so. Life is the most wonderful creation God has ever created.  I can't say that I have the most out of it. In fact, I found mine as something shattered in pieces. My family is not complete. We are not rich. I grew up through pains and difficulties of this life. My childhood was filled with questions and insecurities. I felt that for me to be noticed, I have to work hard with so much effort. I don't see myself as someone beautiful, and the bonus is, I am not that kind. I am most of the time selfish.  I can't see the beauty in me, seriously! But, when I found none of it to myself, God found it. HE NOTICED ME. And I learned that He's always looking at me, that I am the apple of His eyes. He saw a "wonderful future" in me that needs to be shaped. HE BELIEVES IN ME! And it is all through Him that step by step, I learned to have confidence in this life. I ...

I Miss You, Mama

I never thought we won't be together anymore. It seems that life specially a day is a roller coaster ride. It's sometimes up, sometimes down. I can still remember every part of you, mama. It's almost two months since you left me and there was never a day that passed that I didn't think of you. I miss you so much more than my heart can silently scream, more than my tears can flowly burst and more than my cries can loudly sing. I wish we had more time of being together, ma. I wish we had more memories. 😭 I REALLY WISH.  I miss you, ma. Gimingaw sab ba ka sa akoa? :(
