Hello there, sweet soul! I apologize from the bottom of my heart for not updating this blog. As I much as I want to I cannot due to limited time I have for myself in a day. But rest assured I will keep you posted and inspire you to see God's signs and wonders.
It's already February but let me give you my January praise report. I hope you will be bless by this post and my prayer is that you too will experience limitless God's grace, favor and wonders that will leave you in awe. Let's remember what God did for me this January.
1. HASHTAG FUN RUN
I am a runner by heart. I love running however I admit that last year I did not take good care of my body. I was so irresponsible. I went from 80 kgs to 92 kgs. To tell you the truth, I do not know my weight now. But the good news is I was able to join a running event. Yes, started the year with a run. A help to burn all the weight I gained over the Christmas Season. I ran with my sister and two of our friends. I thought I cannot finish the 3K race because I am so heavy and I can barely rely on myself lately. But thanks be to God, I finished the race. I am happy because I also got a medal for the very first time.

2. PRAYER & FASTING 2015
Every January, our church has this corporate event. This is the time of the year when we, as a church, corporately consecrate ourselves, our families, and ministries to God. After 2 years of not participating, I was finally able to join. In relation to this event, I prepared a list of my faith goals this year. I was crazy! I listed down 60+ things that I am believing and praying God for. It is the time where we believe God for victories and breakthroughs in every area of our lives this year. One on my faith goals is to be part of the Ten Days Mission Trip and God showed me that He really hear our prayers. On the second day of the Prayer and Fasting, we prayed for our missionaries and the nations. If you will remember, Jesus said and commanded "And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."
God answered my prayer. We had an altar call for those who believe that God will send them to Nation. I came forward and the rest of the story made me flabbergasted! I sensed the Holy Spirit move in us and filled the place with God's revelation of truth. I am still waiting for the update from my local church when and where the initial meeting will be.

3. VICTORY GROUP
When we say church, we don’t mean the building where we hold our worship services. Church is the people of God. That means you and me and we don’t just meet every Sunday. We also meet in small Victory groups that meet throughout Metro Manila—in homes, offices, campuses, malls, coffee shops, etc.—for an hour once a week. It is designed for Bible study, fellowship, prayer, and encouragement, each Victory group meeting is open to anyone who would like to grow in their relationship with God.
I am so happy that I was able to meet and catch up with my Victory Group in Fort Bonifacio and in Makati. We prayed for one another and talked about our faith goals.

4. SHO SAKURAI's 33rd BIRTHDAY
Sho Sakurai is a Japanese idol, singer, songwriter, actor, newscaster, host and former radio host. He is a member of Japanese boy band Arashi. For the last 5 months, Sho Sakurai supplied me with full measure of inspiration and indescribable feeling of love. There are times that I feel like giving up, times I feel like I'm worthless because I got dumped by the person I truly and wholeheartedly loved, Sho Sakurai taught me to pick up the broken pieces of me and offered it to the One who loved me first - Jesus Christ. Lord gave Sho-kun to me as an instrument and help in a manner that I cannot put into words now. I will always be grateful to God, to Sho-kun and to the rest of Arashi. And yes, we are engaged (in my dreams). Hahaha!

5. CBN ASIA PROMO
I joined this CBN Asia contest and I totally forget about. And then one Saturday morning I got an email from them and Voilà! I won a lot of items. I didn't ask God for it but He still gives it. Four answered prayers - worship t-shirt, new Bible in a different version, Superbook-related goodies and Kuya Icko Gonzalez' Wasak DVD. Yes, I have a crush on Kuya Icko. Hahaha!

6. Pru Life U.K Contest
I joined another corporate contest. All we need to do is share our New Year’s resolution and the top 10 with most interesting and achievable goals will win a prize. I just answered, “This year I will tithe faithfully. With God, I can tithe dahil hindi ako tight.” And I added a bible verse from Malachi 3:8-10.
Before January ends, I received an email. Woohoo!!!

All these blessings increased my faith and brought me closer to God. They came at just the right time and gave me hope in hopeless situations. I don’t believe He has done all this for me because I go out and do stuff for Him. I believe He does this for me because I am His most Beloved Daughter. And He is good.
My prayer is that you also see God's goodness in everything. Don't forget to see His hand in our every day life. God bless!
