Happy New Year Everyone

Thank God for keeping us safe under His care for the past years. Now that 2012 is here, I am still holding on to God's promises that He will never leave us nor forsake us. I know trials may come but I have a big, rich, powerful God who is my source of strength. I know we can overcome everything through Him. Happy New Year everyone. 

Everything Happens For A Reason

All things work together for good to those who love HIM (Jesus). This is really true in my life. When I got married, there were a lot of trials that we faced but God helped us overcome those trials. If we just trust on HIM, everything will really turn out right. We may not know instantly the purpose for those things to happen but God will reveal to us in His time. Last month, we faced another trial. We were harassed by people who are claiming that they own the other house (the other unit at the back of our house where my sister in law land my husband’s relatives live). My husband’s cousin also was claiming that he owns the house. The truth is that, it was his cousin’s account in Pag-ibig that they used (of course with consent). He knows that he didn’t even spend a single centavo for that house. We already gave up the other unit to the one’s harassing us to avoid trouble but the situation became worse since my husband’s relatives living on the other unit won’t leave the house. His cousin even threatened that he’s going to kill us. It stressed a lot. The situation becomes worse since there are two parties claiming the house. Everyday (As early as 5 am), the other party claiming the house comes and talk to my husband. One day when my husband was not around, they came back and I was the one who talked to them. I don’t like the way he talks because he sound like threatening us if we won’t give the house. I was crying out of fear. I was so worried. When my husband came, he was so worried since I am on the third trimester of my pregnancy. So we decided to give up the house and hand it over to the other party since his cousin already is living on the other house. We looked for a house to be rented. Thanks God for his provisions. We were able to find a house to rent.

Just yesterday, the city was flooded including some parts of Misamis Oriental because of the typhoon Sendong.  Vamenta Subdivision was also affected. It was where we used to live. A friend told us that the place was also flooded and that the people living there stayed on their roof just to save themselves. God really spared us from the flood. Now I know that God allowed those trials to happen to spare us from the flood. He really reveals everything in the right time, in His time.

IT'S A BABY BOY!

I just had my ultrasound and it’s a baby boy. My husband was not around when I had my ultrasound because he was in Xavier University for his MA class. When he arrived at the clinic, he immediately asked for the baby’s gender. I smiled at him and then he asked, “is it a baby boy?” Then I nod and smile. He was so happy.  I know it was one of the happiest moments in his life.

Goodbye 20s, Hello 30s

I am thankful to God for giving me another year. It was just a simple celebration with my husband, my mother, cousin and few friends. My father was not able to come since no one is going to take care of his pigs. My sister was also not around since she was busy with her work. We had a simple dinner at home. I myself cooked. We had grilled fish, sweet and sour crabs, spaghetti, shanghai rolls, and salad. They all liked the food I prepared. I am thankful to my husband for allotting a budget to be spent for my special day.

Renewal

Thank God that I'm back in writing , i really missed it. Life is getting tougher and challenging. It's another phase of my life where two become one. When we finally decide to be in one heart of my wife. Exciting in the sense that i am about to become a father this January 6,2012. It nice to be back :)

Goodbye AMA, Hello MUST

Today is my last day of duty here in AMA. I've been here for 4 years. A lot of things happened here in AMA. One of the best things that happened in my life during my stay here is that I met my husband here. He used to teach here before he transferred in CU. I've been thankful to God for having given me the opprotunity to be a part of the AMA family. Now that my contract ends today, I am not worried at all. Why? Because God provided me another job. I will be reporting for duty on Monday at Mindanao University of Science and Technology as an office staff at the Procurement Unit. I really thank God that even if I'll be saying goodbye to my teaching life (for the mean time), He has provided me another job.

first wedding anniversay

It’s our first wedding anniversary. I am so thankful to God for always being there for us. My husband had to work during this day. He was busy the whole. He never failed to greet me a happy anniversary early in the morning. I was a little upset because he still goes to work even it is Saturday and it is our special day. He spent the whole day at school. He told me that we will just be having a dinner date after his work. It was already past 5 o’clock in the afternoon and still he’s not yet home. No text message or call from him. I became mad. I even cried. I was hurt. I texted him that I was upset and hurt. He explained to me that he did not forget. It’s just that he was obliged to report to duty and he had lots of responsibilities in school. He told me that he will wait for me at Mandarin Restaurant in Velez St. He told me to bring clothes since we’re not going home. We had our dinner and he gave me a bouquet of red roses. We spent our night at Harbor Lights Hotel, the place where we got married. I was happy again. I knew he really loves me and I was just impatient. :)
