An Angel in the Mail

Instead of Passing this on to mail to only 10 people
am pasting this in my blog.

add a comment .......... and pray for you and your friends

happy weekend to everyone,

 and a happy 3-day rest to denizens of Quezon City and Quezon Province.

cant talk now, but do get the chance to read Horace Templo's column today. Manila Standard.
will put up the link some other day,.

As for me, i am planning to rest my ribs after a quick trip to the xray rooms of NKTI tomorrow
to make sure there are no breaks or fractures in any of my ribs - i had a small domestic accident last Sunday night, led to painful ribs. Monday i had to rest as it was too painful, and the pain lessened per every day.
muscles are still sore though, so i must rest. Thank You God for the Monday holiday.

i also want to greet, belatedly, as she wasnt in Manila, Amihan Abueva, my Sayans classmate
she will be having a Proud to be Filipino day tomorrow so i am going to wear a Filipiniana outfit tomorrow, even if my ribs hurt and even if i have to wear brace (i might remove it for the photo ops, to be done by our good and brilliant photo shooter, a serious hobbyist who has shown of f his photo works. Dr. Jerry.
i guess this means i have to put on some makeup (i rarely put on makeup these days, but i suppose a few concessions have to be made for posterity ...*grins*)

part of my homework is Pinoy food, our friend Alice and Manny is bringing Dinuguan with puto, so i am bringing Pancit Palabok ... i guess from Little Quiapo, bilao and all.

then Sunday, i am off to a healer, so that all these illnesses of mine will be healed.  some of my illnesses have shown a marked improvement, and i am hoping they continue to stupendously improve.  Also my ribs!

so, have a good one everyone.  the healer, if you want to know, is located in Manila.
if you really, really want to know.  write a comment and i will respond.

A Prayer to ask for Financial Aid

Heavenly Father, most Gracious and Loving God, I pray to You that You abundantly bless my family and me. I know that You recognize, that a family is more than just a mother, father, sister, brother, cousin, husband and wife, but all who believe and  trust in You.

Dear GOD, I send up a prayer request for financial blessing for not only the person who gave me a copy of this prayer, but for me  and for all who read this prayer.

May the power of joint prayers by those who believe and trust in You is more powerful than anything! 

I thank you in advance for your blessings.  

God, deliver the person reading this right now from debt and debt burdens. Release Your Godly wisdom that I may be a good steward over all that You have given me.

GOD, for I know how wonderful and mighty You are and how if we just obey you and walk in Your Word and  have the faith of a mustard seed that You will pour out blessings.

I thank You now Lord for the recent blessings I have received and for the blessings yet to come, because I know You are not done with me  yet.

In Jesus name.  Amen...

A Prayer to God, our Father

A prayer to God, our Almighty Father - sent to me by Hermie.

Please pray for yourself, for your loved ones, and for all of us.

 Pray with me.

 

Heavenly Father; I come to you as humble as I know how. 

I Confess my Sins, those Known and Unknown. 

 

Lord, You know I'm not perfect & I fall short every day of my life. 

 

I just want to take time out to say Thank You.

Thank You for Your Love. 

Thank You for Your Mercy.

Thank You for Your Grace. 

Thank You for my home, car, food, Life, and Everything I do have. 

 

I realize that this Life I'm living is full of trials & tribulations But Thank You for not putting more on me than I can bear. 

 

The next time you get ready to complain, Tell The Devil you are A Blessed Child Of God & you have more to be thankful for than to worry about. 

 

 

 

We must go thru the storm to appreciate the Sunshine!

a New Pope

Catholics, like yours truly, have a new leader
it feels good
i hope the prophecies arent ........ right, after all, prayer changes things.


Have a good weekend folks.

Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the USA

Happy Thanksgiving.

It would be wonderful if every country took a day off from toil to say Thank you to their Creator, or if they were atheists, to say thank you to a still beautiful world.  As we use the US thanksgiving day to say our thank yous, may all of us be reminded that the world can only remain beautiful if we do our part to keep it so.

I hope we all do our part.

Say a prayer for people with cancer

This was shared to me - by email, so i am sharing to ask for prayers for people who are ill

How's this story for a reminder that "We don't know we're alive".

 

Her name is Katie Kirkpatrick, 21 yrs old. Next to her is her fiancé, Nick, 23. This picture was takenprior to their wedding January 11th, 2012.  Katiehas terminal cancer and spends hours in

chemotherapy. Here Nick awaits while she finishes one of the sessions... 

  

Even in pain and dealing with her organs shuttingdown, with the help of morphine, Katie took care

of every single part of the wedding planning.  Herdress had to be adjusted several times due to Katie's constant weight loss. 

  

An expected guest was her oxygen tank. Katie hadto use it during the ceremony and reception.  Theother couple in this picture is Nick's parents, very emotional with the wedding and to see their son marrying the girl he fell in love when he was an adolescent. 

  

Katie, in a wheel chair listening to her husband and friends singing to her. 

  

In the middle of the party, Katie had to rest for a bitand catch her breath. The pain does not allow her to stand for long period of time. 

  

Katie died 5 days after her wedding. To see a fragile woman dress as a bride with a beautiful smile makes you think... Happiness is always there within reach,no matter how long it lasts.  Let’s enjoy life and don'tlive a complicated life.   Life is too short. Work as if it was your first day.  Forgive as soon aspossible. Love without boundaries.  Laugh without control and never stop smiling  

Please pray for those suffering from cancer.

A Prayer for Today

One Door Closes   ..................................   Another Opens

Revelations  3:8

When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! 'The power of one sentence! God is going to shift things around for you today and let things work in your favor If you believe, send it. If you don't believe, dont pray. God closes doors no man can open & God opens doors no man can close..


"Lord, I love you and I need you,
Come into my heart, and bless me,
My family, my home, my finances,
And all of my friends,
In Jesus's name. Amen."

The mighty power of the TONGUE

Let’s Pray
Father, I can be so careless with the words I speak. Please forgive me and help me learn how to control my tongue. Create in me a clean heart, God, so that I can speak words filled with grace and love. In Jesus’s name, Amen. 

I thought i would share the prayer i found in my email.  

words have so much power. think Harry Potter.
they have the power to destroy a person, or, to build up a person

if you have nothing good to say, say nothing.
on the other hand, if there is anything good to say, by all means - say it. and say it out loud.


it is the words that hurt, not so much the volume.  imagine that the boss is yelling (what can you do, he has hypertension so he has to release his displeasure somehow ...)

and he says - i do not like the work you submitted.  it lacks analysis in these particular sections (and let us pretend he points to sections of your report)

or this -
and he says - how stupid can you be!  how can you submit a report that lacks substance!  (and points to sections in your report)

there is a great deal of difference between the 2 ways.
one is factual report - he says he does not like the report - and why.
one is an attack, an emotional one

which boss are you? and how careful are you with your words?


 

Sharing this - ASAP

a good friend emailed this to me.

ASAP - Always Say A Prayer.

God, our Father, if it is Your Will, walk through my home and take away all my worries and illnesses and please watch over and heal my family in Jesus's Name. Amen.

Hail Mary

in honor of the Virgin Mary of Fatima

please say one (1)  Hail Mary and ask a favor.

Hail Mary,  Full of Grace
The Lord is with you
Blessed are you among Women
And blessed is the Fruit of your women, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God
Pray for us sinners
Now. And the hour of our death. Amen.

May all those who pray receive their favor
and enjoy peace, love, health, and prosperity. Amen.

Today‘s Truth
[Jesus said] “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering” (Mark 5:31-34 NIV).


This is from the bible story about the woman who was bleeding for many years, and when she saw Jesus, she thought that if she would touch his garment, she would be healed.  Jesus felt power go out of him when she touched his garment, and He said that her faith has healed her.



Let’s Pray
Dear God, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. I reach forward today, touch the hem of Your garment, and receive my healing. Yes, I want to get well. Give me the faith to walk in freedom and victory.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen.
