Urgent time

Friday, that was my favorite day of the week knows why? because its just only the end of the weekdays in school and the end of school works and also the office works. Unfortunately, what im thinking today is that Friday is a crucial day that should be overcome it. There are so many things to think about and do. If I could wings to help me to fly wherever I want then I want to exit in this crucial thing happening. God said in Ecclesiastes 3:11 their is a time for everything. I know and I believe in that passage but how can used to induce my self in many works so that everything goes right and smooth. Yeah! right have trust and believe Jesus Christ that He will help me in this thing. I always said to my self I can do this no worries no feeling of frustration and also no feeling of regrets. All I know is I do my best and what is the result of it I sincerely accept it and move on into another stair. Thesis paper, presentation, report, assignments, office works, quizzes, teaching children in sunday school class and doing household chores all these are my main things to do. I really experience that I choose but you know what I enjoy it and accept it, because I believe all these and more coming will be a appetizer to my success. Lord, I come to you wholeheartedly asking for help and endurance to do these things I recommend it all to you. Please do my heart be strong and my bodies have strength to face it. I'm asking for financial support on our library exposure, do blessed those people who help me, inspire, motivate and our teacher behind this so many requirement. God, I do believe in you. We bring back all praises and adoration in Your Mighty Name. Amen!

"Everyday is a special day."

A friend of mine opened his wife's
underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper wrapped package:

'This, - he said - isn't any ordinary package.'

He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box.

'She got this the first time we went to New York , 8 or 9 years ago. She has never put it on , was saving it for a special occasion.

Well, I guess this is it.

He got near the bed and placed the gift box next to the other clothing he was taking to the funeral house, his wife had just died.

He turned to me and said:

'Never save something for a special occasion.

Every day in your life is a special occasion'.

I still think those words changed my life.

Now I read more and clean less.

I sit on the porch without worrying about anything.

I spend more time with my family, and less at work.

I understood that life should be a source of experience to be lived up to, not survived through.

I no longer keep anything.

I use crystal glasses every day...

I'll wear new clothes to go to the supermarket, if I feel like it.

I don't save my special perfume for special occasions, I use it whenever I want to.

The words 'Someday....' and ' One Day...' are fading away from my dictionary.

If it's worth seeing, listening or doing, I want to see, listen or do it now....

I don't know what my friend's wife would have done if she knew she wouldn't be there the next morning, this nobody can tell.

I think she might have called her relatives and closest friends. She might call old friends to make peace over past quarrels.

I'd like to think she would go out for Chinese, her favorite food.

It's these small things that I would regret not doing, if I knew my time had come..

Each day, each hour, each minute, is special.

Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no-one..

If you got this, it's because someone cares for you and because, probably, there's
someone you care about.

If you're too busy to send this out to other people and you say to yourself that you will send it 'One of these days' , remember that
'One day' is far away... or might never come......

No matter if you're superstitious or not, spend some time reading it.

It holds useful messages for the soul.

Jesus Lover of my soul

It's all about You, Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and your fame
It's not about me
As if You should do things my way
You alone are God
And I surrender to your ways

Jesus, lover of my soul
All consuming fire is in Your gaze
Jesus, I want you to know
I will follow you all my days
For no one else in history is like you
And history itself belongs to you
Alpha and Omega, You have loved me
And I will share eternity with You

One of the reasons why people get so sentimental its because, memories are the only things that don’t change. When everything else does there are things else does there are things in life that you cant hold on forever, no matter how much you fight for it, sometimes destiny isn’t always good, it becomes playful when you met someone you learned to love, you thought that it was destiny who made your paths cross, but what if making your paths cross is just a part of the game that the playful destiny create? Making you realize in the end that the person you thought that was destined for you wasn’t really meant to stay but only destined to make you feel love and leave you when you’ve already fallen. It’s not easy to state reason whey you decide to leave your love. some might think its just an excuse…some might not actually believe… some will blame you… some might even be mad at you…what they don’t see is the fact that it hurts you even more to hurt someone who doesn’t deserve to be hurt especially when you cant actually state the reason why you have to leave. You can never own something that was never yours.. so lets stop gripping on things we expect to last forever. Nothing lasts forever. Forever is a lie. Everything is transitory. So while you have something in your hand, put in mind that its just borrowed so that someday when its gone, it wont take you eternity just to let it go when our feelings get strong for someone, it always wise to stop for a while and give your heart….-a time to breathe---

A time to use your mind to weigh the situation based on reason not on emotion because the saddest thing that can happen is when one fall in love while that other wants nothing more than friendship! Love can sometimes be magic…but magic can sometimes be an illusion. There are times when I wish that I was limited to certain emotions so that I ll never have to experience pain, never feel betrayed or disappointed, and never get my fragile heart broken but the same thing means that ill never know how it feels to love and be loved in return that thought of it kind of scares me. To have a heart that’s whole but numb or heart that’s broken but real. Someday, well all be looking back to those days we learned to love, get hurt, cry and fight. Maybe when that time comes, well be laughing at our old dumb selves…realizing how stupid we were to stand up for things we know weren’t really meant for us.

But I guess learning takes time, and mistakes make ones journey fun.

Life is what we make it. Loves makes the world go round…So lets live, love and take whatever pain it brings though its hard to wait around for something that I know will never happen its harder to stop when I know its everything Ive always wanted but you know what? I’m glad,,, I’m glad it happened

Dissappointment, discouragement!

Owh! It's been a long time that we couldn't see each other, I think its almost 5 months of keeping busy with my studies but now I remember you.
Anyway I have something to tell you about now we are in second semester of our class(March) it getting nearer with our closure in these sem kaya nga I much concentrate with my studies and requirements that we are going to compiled.
Now I have a subject Economics eversince I started attending this class I always felt nervous and thinking over what is the possible topics and what are the interested topic about it. Did you know last wednesday that is March 2, 2010 that the day when our group discussed about the topic Effects of Unemployment that is a unprepared report why? because all of us are not willing to discussed it in front, so I decided that I will be the one to carry out. Sad to say nothing good happen, I really feel disappointment with my self, I feel that my grade will not longer change anymore Im aiming pa na man na magbalik ako sa pagka DEANS LIST pero now 50/50 ako kasi feeling parang baba pa ang grade ko for what we have done. But I admit it with my self its already Happen na ehhh what else I can do pa......):
Now I really aiming to get bawi of what i did, I ask God why I'm so irresponsible that is the first time that i experienced with that, parang ang point don hindi ako yun, siguro masyado akong comfortable with our group that each one of us will each other jajai but nobody who help me...
Now i realize hindi pa man yon end of the world ehhh. Now God tested me again of long I will continue to serve to Him.
By the way I am a sunday school teacher in our Church now, I am very thankful about it why because God gave me another oppoturnities and in that way I could share the gospel of God to the young children in our community. Hope that will not the last one, but it is the starting point of my Spiritual maturity to life. Hope you learned it, after you read my story..
Thank you for listening and reading this...God never let us alone but He always in our side. I LOVE YOU LORD.

The fashion of Giving

Yes, People change the way they want it. One thing I prove that in my beloved friend, boss, teacher and my brother. For 2 years I've studying in this institution so many unforgettable things happen; something that we will never forget. This day seems i really smell the Christmas season because of Christmas part, gift, and love that everybody imparted in us. Di'ba sounds so good but you think of it It sounds miraculous why? because of change.
I never thought that my boss will give me a Christmas presence kasi hindi na man siya ganong tao ehhhhh, hindi mahilig magbigay but he is very kind and very understanding and very patient in us even though we have so many unnecessary things in terms of work and services that we lend.
Pero hindi man yon basis para magalit siya sa amin
And take note he gave me a birthday presence, I am very happy talaga kasi yong hinihingi ko kay God automatically he gave it through kay Sir..
God is good all the time.
And I am very existed sa aming Gumasa trip this saturday, hope nothing will happen to us.

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring. It means I cant do it for someone else.
To "let go" is not to cut myself off. It's the realization that I can't conttol another.
To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands, but in Gods.
To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being, as we all sin.
To "let go" is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes, but to destinies.
To "let go" is not to deny. but to accept. To "let go" is not to nag, scold, fuss or argue; but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them, To "let go" is not to adjust everything in my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.
To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to live for today and grow for the future.
To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to live for today and grow for the future. To "let go" is to fear less and to love more.

Healing a Broken Heart – The key is trust

Our human tendency is to avoid painful situations, even burying them. Can we ever trust those who hurt us so deeply? There are steps to healing a broken heart.
Release – “. . . First forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against . . .” (
Mark 11:25). Lori chose to let go of past hurts. Years later her nephew (Dawn and Leo’s son) was married. Lori recalls, “My bad experience had driven a wedge between two families. Miraculously, when I forgave Leo, the wedding brought everyone together and healthy relationships were created.”
Refocus – “. . . By [God’s] mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope” (
Ephesians 3:20). Initially, Louise punished herself for not being more protective. She tried to keep her broken heart hidden from everyone. She shares, “Guilt and shame clouded my perspective. As our daughter and I openly discussed the incident, we helped other victims and now readily see positive results in their lives.”
Receive – “[God] comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us” (
2 Corinthians 1:4). Last year, Yvonne gave birth to a handsome baby boy. “We may never understand the reason we had to endure such heartbreak. Gradually, the emptiness is now being filled with Daniel’s toddler antics.” David and Yvonne will receive their nursing degrees this year. “We want to help others through hard times.”

Healing a Broken Heart – There is a reason

Healing a Broken Heart – There is a reasonOnce there was a young man who proclaimed to have the most beautiful, flawless heart. An old man challenged him. The crowd looked at the old man’s heart. It was beating strongly, but full of scars. Some pieces had been removed and others had been put in, but didn’t fit quite right. The old man looked at the young man, “I would never trade my heart for yours. Every scar represents a person I’ve given my love -- I tear out a piece and give it to them. Sometimes they give me a piece of their broken heart, which I fit along jagged edges. When the person doesn’t return my love, a painful gouge is left. Those gouges stay open, reminding me that I love these people too. Perhaps someday they will return and fill that space.” We would never choose to have a broken heart! The agony and recovery time is just too unbearable. There is Someone, however, who had a flawless heart and chose to have it broken. Medically when a heart ruptures (breaks) water gushes out (John 19:33-34). In every way, Jesus experienced a broken heart. He understands betrayal, temptation, and loss (Isaiah 53:3; Luke 22:33-34; Matthew 14:10-13). He is our Comforter, Counselor, and Companion who fills our heart’s empty spaces.

Healing a Broken Heart – Is there hope?Is there hope for healing a broken heart? Something or someone has just broken your heart. You were caught off-guard by a betrayal, a shocking behavior, or loss of a loved one. Suddenly you are feeling like you’ve lost all hope . . . you can feel a physical aching in your chest that leaves you wounded and scarred. How can you ever hope to recover or discover what steps will end this suffering? We all know that emotions are a vital part of the way we are made. Yet we can’t understand why it takes so long to heal from emotional injuries. We would never prematurely remove a cast or sutures until the broken bone or skin was fully restored. We must realize complete emotional healing requires time. The book of Psalms offers great comfort when experiencing long-term emotions like sadness, fear, and grief. “He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds” (
Psalm 147:3). Are some circumstances beyond healing? What about these situations:
In the beginning, Dawn and Leo’s marriage seemed so secure. Then alcohol and Leo’s advances towards his sister-in-law, Lori, resulted in a bitter divorce.
Louise wept uncontrollably as her daughter recounted her molestation as a child.
After Dave and Yvonne’s second miscarriage, they severed all relationships that reminded them of their two lost sons.
Healing a Broken Heart – The key is trustOur human tendency is to avoid painful situations, even burying them. Can we ever trust those who hurt us so deeply? There are steps to healing a broken heart.

Holy Spirit rain down

Holy Spirit, rain down, rain down
Oh Comforter and Friend
How we need Your touch again
Holy Spirit, rain down, rain down
Let Your power fall
Let Your voice be heard
Come and change our hearts
As we stand on Your word

No mind can know what God has in store
So open up heaven, open it wide
Over Your church and over our lives

Favorites

My Favorite Author and Book

"Don’t judge a book by its cover.”

We all know that life is full of surprises, like a book every page has its own meanings but what’s important is its content. The content defines what is really meant by the author. Book is where we can get information; inspirational, moral lessons and learning’s that can help you develop your intellectual and emotional aspect. I’m not really reading a lot of books, but since I’ve been taking this course I learned to love books. Now I realized the importance of books. My favorite author is no other than Bo Sanchez. His books are full of inspirations about life with God. I read his books since I start my tertiary level. He inspires a lot of people who are experiencing trials and burdens in life. He shares a lot of testimonies happened in his own life that has great impact to us. He wrote several books about his life experiences. He finds life very interesting and full of challenges. He has a happy family with two handsome sons. He is now living in Manila and continuing to inspire people through his writings and ministries.

Bo Sanchez has strong faith in God. Among his works are How to find your one true love and your past does not define your future. These two books are among my favorites. Bo Sanchez also writes for magazine entitled “Kerygma” it contains stories of faithful souls in the body of believers. I really love being inspired by others because through this I become strong and have enough strength to face challenges that God set for me. Another favorite book is “Your past does not define your future”. It talks about taking our journey as our pilgrimage is not yet over. Our beautiful future waits because our past does not define our future. This book contains good stories about life, the experiences and learning. It also about Bo’s own experiences in life, the book signifies that no one can determine the future. What happens in the past does not define our future; I found myself contentment in reading Bo Sanchez books.

Getting to know me better!

About me: Christine Joyce Estimo

“Things May change, but not the real me”

By the way, its my pleasure to write about me….my life, my weaknesses, my inspiration and my pleasant moments in life. I’m Christine Joyce Estimo, my friends call me “joyce” sometimes or just call me “tin2x” for short; I’m already 19 years old, and enjoying my life. I’m living with my happy, supportive, loving and caring family. Somebody said I am a spoiled brat but it’s not true. We are currently living in Polomolok, South Cotabato. I have two brothers and four sisters. I’m so lucky and honored to have very supportive brothers and sisters. Just like the plants, they can’t grow without the presence of light and water.

Nineteen years of striving and keeping me abreast of what’s going on, my faith in God is my strongest assets in life. I am thankful and blessed with many things that made me become a stronger person. I have my three main weaknesses: First, is God, now I’m entering in spiritual maturity and following all of His laws. I enjoy being accompanied by Him. I am blessed because He gave me grace, to have a chance to send myself to school. That is one of the best things that happen to my entire life. Everything will happen according to His will and plans. Each one in this world, God has set a beautiful and wonderful plan. It only strengthened our faith in Him. Secondly, My Family, They are my companions when I am experiencing trials and barriers in my life. The great thing is, we work and help each other, respect and understanding are important to us. I live and continue striving for goals and studies. I set them also as my Inspirations. Third, are my friends and special persons around me! Generally, I value every person that comes into my life, not only in actions but also inside of my heart.

Nevertheless, I am a person full of imagination. I am always faithful to God and ready to serve Him and my family. I also enjoy my dance group because through dance I can really express myself. I really love to dance. I joined a dance group called “THE FALEH” ( Filipino Art Lover of Ethnic Heritage). I was one of the members of that group. We performed different dances which were ethnic, pop, cheer dance, interpretative, and dance sports. High school life is the most enjoyable moment of my entire life. I experience meeting people from other places. I’ve learned their culture too much as I expected. High school graduation day was somewhat sad because that day will be the last day for us to perform a dance to our school. For our performances, we were awarded as the “Best Performers of the Year”.

Now, I currently studying and pursuing my dreams, at Notre Dame of Dadiangas University, a prestigious university here in General Santos City. I’m taking up Bachelor of Science in Library Information Science (BSLIS). I’m now on my 2nd year. It’s hard because at the same time I’m working in this institution as Grant In- Aid (GIA). After two years of separation from my friends, I still missed our unforgettable moments. Now that I’m in tertiary level, I want to focus on my academics aspect and lie low in my co– curricular activities. I love reading books, something that really inspired me I can get moral lessons about life. I am a music lover. Sometimes, I choreograph my own steps, because dancing is my hobby in our house. Every morning I exercise with a group in our place, called “TIBO”. Now I am serving God in our church, and one of the officers their. I’m helping them improve our church. Now I can proudly say that I am a certified Christian. My mom doesn’t really want me to go church of other religion but I keep on praying that she will support me on what I want to do in my life. It’s difficult but I’m trying to pursue it. Through the help also of our Creator, I know that day will come.

Thank God, I really enjoy my new chapter in my life. I really believe that “Life is like a Rosary, that’s full of Mystery”. Hope you like reading this. And thank you for the time you spent to read things about me….I find it interesting to write about my life. I hope you find also God in your life. That’s all.

Learining Web 2.0 Environment

Learing Web 2.0 is very easy if you know the concepts of the Application. As Ms. Lyna Estabillo our teacher, taught us. The first thing that comes in my mind is how can be creative? using this Environment; as our lesson go further until it finish, now I understand and I find it very interesting.
It was March 5, 2009 when we have an hands - on to apply learnings in Web 2.0. I thought need to be teach all the times before we learn, buy the realization comes that learning is individual nature. We add a gadget to our blogs to make it beautiful and creative, following the steps by step procedure is very easy. Putting videos and slideshows are only those we do. We also taught us, how to connect added information from the other website. We just click and click to add it, we find also difficult in loading the site because of the server, but of course if not we finish it easily. Patience is being valued to this.
I expect I could learn much more to share to other. And explore more in using those application. As what I've said that learning is individual nature, we need to take action to apply our learning it is not just only in discussing but also in taken action. I can express my own creativity and make it beatiful through these.

Heloo-"

Thank You for viewing my blog! I hope you like it.
