Joyful Giver Aim Be Fruitful

Joyful Giver Aim Be Fruitful
































Be fruitful is one of the commandments the bible tell believers. Is it applicable in the today's world? in my own opinion, the word be fruitful, go and multiply.. no longer apply with having more children in order to filled the world. It is more now on multiplying your self into a fruitful individual, filled with generosity, able to give and share with people that surrounds us.

As a joyful giver, be fruitful in your ways how you make the most of your life. Excel, Explore and Be the Best you could ever be. Most of all Share, because only through sharing that you will be able to excel more.

Like my post.. please leave a comment, share it in your facebook page and help me spread inspiration to everyone.

A Joyful Giver's Prayer

A Joyful Giver's Prayer



Once in a while, no, if I am telling the truth, most of the time, we feel anxious on many things. Especially when our prayer don't seem to get an answer from God. We exert effort to keep on reminding God about our need up to the point that we tend to give Him a deadline. That is so human, that is most of us. But believe or not, God is there, patiently watching us, looking for  even a little itchy bitsy tiny faith we have, if we can endure to just wait for a while. For God's timing is always perfect, it is never late nor ever wrong.  

As for my personal experience, I ask him many times.. is it for me , when will it be? if not,could you be.. , ahh.. I tend to give God options on how He could answer my prayers, choose the best answer Lord, but make sure what I really want will be your answer.. duhh, sounds familiar? I know He is sadden by it and I am ashamed of it. As I struggle in my faith to wait, the more that the Lord teach me to be of courage. Never once that he let me down,  that I remember, and I know if only I will wait just a little more, God's answered prayer is on the way. 

"Give thanks to the Lord for He is good,  His love endures forever" Psalm 136:1

The benefits of problems and human limitation

The benefits of problems and human limitation

In life, there are bad times in order for us to see the beautiful things.

1. It helps us remember Christ suffering for us
- it reminds us to look up and recognize the Lord who is the source of everything.

2. It keeps us from pride
- The Lord goes with people that are humble (Isiah 57:15)

3. It helps us to look back in this life
- it reminds us to where we come from, what we are before we become what we are right now

4. It proves our faith to others
- it makes us realize that we cannot live alone, we need people to keep our faith and to help us in life

5. It gives God the opportunity to demonstrate His great power
- Nothing is impossible with God. He surface when we can hold no more.

The wonders of FAITH

In every circumstances that we have, we tend to do anything to get through it, we sometime surrender everything to make it work because we still feel that there is hope, that things will be alright after this. 

Is this what we call Faith? Does faith automatically connect us to God? 

In a Christian point of view, it is. Faith is not just believing in your self, it is confirmation of what GOD can do. It is surrendering to God's power, that he is able to do the impossible things for us to accomplish.

If you truly know God, you know what is His capabilities. He can and He is able to make things right for us only if we are willing.  There are no words here on earth that can describe what God really is, but he is so generous that He let us have our own choice. he can work if we choose Him to do it for us. Believing in the promises of God is a sign of faith. You have to Believe in His words because it is true. It is committing your trust in  our Lord.

We have to remember that the Lord doesn't work because of our problem, sickness or fear, He work because of our faith. He work things for us  in order for us to be strong and truly acknowledge that he is God Almighty who can do all things. He wants us to end up as a Winner. Jesus said I will fight for you, and is true to His word. Because of your faith, God will work for you.

True Christian have open their heart for the following:

1. Holding to God's promises, know God as your Saviour
2. Believing to His words, it never changes yesterday, today and til forever
3. Declaring the goodness of our God all the time

This is faith. If you have faith, you are at peace.

THE POWER OF LAW OF ATTRACTION

Is there Power in Law of Attraction

Have you ever experience waking up in the morning with a smile on your face. Upon opening of your eyes the spark is there already!Your mind is set on to see wonderful things, it is focused on great things that is and will come your way all throughout the day. As a result, you will get off your bed, lightly took the shower, you will greet your beautiful mom who lovingly prepared your breakfast. In short, everything is light and wonderful!

Being Happy or Sad is what we choose to have for the rest of the day. If you want to be happy and take the day lightly, surely the hours will pass wonderfully and with ease.  Furthermore, great opportunities just comes out of nowhere, it is because you attract good positive force. If you choose to be sad or gloomy, definitely you will have a bad gloomy.. so sad day. Of course, there are times that we cannot help but fell sad sometimes but cheer up, life is full of surprises, we have to live for today, for tomorrow will took care of itself. Live with your "now". This is what I read from my favorite Truly Rich Club Author Bo Sanchez. Life is too short to think of problems that we forgot to see the wonderful opportunity that God gave to us to share with our love ones and friends.


Life is what we make it! What we think manifest the environment we are in right now. Do not lose hope, even if you are in too deep trouble, God will not let you down especially when you are at your lowest point of your life. The great Healer and Provider is just here with us, patiently waiting and able to help.. if we let Him come into our hearts.


Thus, I agree with Fulton Oursler quot, We crucify ourselves between two thieves:
"Regret  for yesterday and fear of tomorrow"

Don't give up. The power of attracting great and wonderful things in all in our mind. Feel it, live with it and see yourself into that wonderful situation right now. I guarantee you, it really feels good. Then everything else will follow. God give us this power, mind over matter, use it to our advantage and for the glory of our God.

FINDING TIME TO TALK TO GOD

As I read about the article of Daxx Bondoc about "Excuse Me God, I Am Still Doing My Thing Here". I felt quite pain in my heart since I am too is guilty of this.

Have you ever said to God, “Can I have a rain check?” Or “I am still busy pursuing my thing here. I will get back to you  later.”

Most of us are guilty of this.We have placed God on the sidelines or on the shelf.

True, most of us focus on our personal aims in life.. focus on material thing, living abundantly with eyeing only on money, thinking it is all we need to have a happy life. But is it all there.. is this how LIFE is all about?

I agree with him that Our vocation is finding our purpose, discovering the role where our God plans has to fulfill. Only   when we realize and live that purpose, that role,can we find true fulfillment and joy.

"A fish is happy when it swims. A bird is happy when it flies. They are happy because they doing what they are created to do". Discerning God’s calling to our lives should be our priority. It is our priority simply because we want to be happy, we want to be fulfilled. To delay is to postpone joy and fulfillment".

A very well said post for us Christian who live by faith and not by sight. But how can we feel and find our purpose in life? We have to have time to talk to God. When we are in His presence everything will be clear and are in the right way.

How To Quit.. Quitting?

I QUIT!..Quitting?

I am finding life hard because of the problem I have cause. I cannot blame anyone because I am the one responsible for it. Sometimes I just want to shrink down into a hole never to come out again. Or just wish I will just evaporate up into the thin air. Worst I sometimes pray I will not wake up anymore.. Life is so hard!

Why I keep on ending in a mess? I have tried my best to make things work out, i have been good, really, I try to be fair with everyone..but why life is hard  for me? It seems I am caught up in a trap and no one .. nobody .. can help me get out of it.. Life is so unfair!

I give my best to be a good wife, but why is he is somebody's arm? after building my whole life evolving only to him. I am a wonderul girlfriend, that's what I think of myself but why does he fall out of love easily. Life is cruel!

I QUIT!

Sound familiar? This precisely is what every people experience and this is what we usually
say to ourselves. Lots of why's?

Life really is full of challenges, but let put what if we look at it in a positive side. Let us change our point of view from the dark side to the lighter part of life. Mistakes are a great teacher. When we make mistake, it means we are learning fast.

Caught up in debt! Will everything can be arranged in a nice settlement, we have the ability to make money follow us. Test everything, lets go out of our comfort zone. The Lord provide us with brain complete with a physical strong body in order for us to use it to learn how to fish! He give us abilities, great mind and creativity.

Heartaches! Ouch! I cannot say it is not hard, or that's okay.. everything will be just fine. No, it's not okay for a moment, yes, but soon it will be. Pain will fade away not easily though  but surely as time goes by it will be forgotten. Put out the bad memories behind. Someday, someway, something good will happen and it replace your heartache into Joy.

Betrayal. It is so hard to accept, if after all what you have done, people you expect to help you in times of trouble turn their backs on you. Or you never expected that the person whom you trust especially if he or she is part of the family, a relatives or a best friend will put you in a situation where your honor or name is at stake. It is quite hard to forgive.

The only thing that does not change is CHANGE. So how about saying this things to ourselves in order
for us to face life's trials and challenges lightly.

I QUIT ... looking at problems and focuses on great things that I can do and opportunities that comes my way!
 
I QUIT ... blaming others for all my misfortunes but will be more extra nice since everyone of us faces different challenges.
 
I QUIT ... putting limitation for myself, I know I can do great and extraordinary things.
 
I QUIT ... thinking of negatives things and will attract more positive thoughts!

I QUIT .. Quitting, because quitters never wins, and those who never quits wins.. big big win!
 
I AM .. a wonderful person, all the good things in life I attract. I affirm that God's plan for me, big dreams and
success is on my way!

That Is Why I love smiling !!!

Did you know that it only takes around 12 muscles we used for smiling? That is according to Dr. David Song,  a plastic surgeon and associate professor at the University of Chicago Hospitals.

So how about if we frown...It takes 43 muscles to frown.. ahh, now it made sense..

that is why unhappy people or those who gets easily irritated have lots of wrinkles (lol!).

But, seriously, it's true.

Now, would it be much nicer to just smile, aside from it will make your face beautiful, you sorround  yourself with positive vibes.

Well, there are lots of reason to smile, waking up in the morning you saw your beautiful super energetic kids, you saw sunlight that smiles back at you, you got to meet your boyfriend or girlfriend, you can watch your favorite move or read inspiring book, there are lots of reason to smile about but if I continue my examples, I will not be able to finish this writing .. right! hehe..

Ok then, I listed 7 wonderful reason why keeping a smile on your face is such an easy and the best way to start your day.

1. God has a plan for everything, never doubt it - everything is at the hand of our Lord, he will give what we need. Do you believe that God has a purpose why we exist in this world. He will surely protect us and give us wisdom and armor to fulfill that purpose.

2. Trust in his timing - God is the master of time, and his timing is always perfect. So do not worry whatever we ask for as along as it is for our own good, he will surely provide at the right time.

3. Rely on his promises - Our God's promises is the same before, today and til forever. If we read the bible all the promises He had with our ancestors he did fulfill.

4. Wait for his answers - There are 3 ways how God answer our prayer, First, He says No- because it's not what you need and providing it will do you no good. Second, He answers Yes,because it is what you need and your request is will do best for you. Lastly, He says WAIT, to test our faith and He has prepared better and wonderful gift for you!

5. Believe in his miracles - All the impossible are so easy and POSSIBLE with our competent and able God.

6. Rejoice in His Goodness - All good things are provided by our God, the very air we breath comes from God, the many wonderful places and many dependable friends are all His gifts for us!

7. Relax in His Presence - With All Knowing God, we can relax, He knows what's best for us.

Life is full of challenges and it really up to us how we handle it, and the best way is to keep our faith, continue working on pursuing your desires in life. It will end up what we wanted it to be. Believe in God and believe yourself.

God bless you.

Removing Fear from you Heart

Opposite of Love is Fear and not hate. If you entertain fear in your heart you will limit the full potential of what you can do.

Fear is a sign of lack of faith and cowardness. It is a doom way of living your life.

Here are ways to remove fear from your heart,

Believe that God is more than enough and powerful that we could ever imagine. He can impossible things you can't comprehend.

If you've been into business and things seems hard to push up, just like what I am experiencing right now, believe of God's presence. Think always of success. God will not leave you so take courage.

Continue to do hard work, go forward, many successful man experienced hundreds of failures, rejections and frustrations but eventually they made it through. They have known the true value of success.

Walk extra mile, continue learning, join with people who have a positive point view of life. Persons who welcome challenges and had strong will to overcome it.

We must remember that God gave us the following to equip us in meeting challenges in life and turn fear into love.

1 He remove our fear - the Lord overtook our sins in order for us to enjoy the full benefit of everlasting life, all you need to do is accept Jesus into you life and let Him take charge!

2. He give us peace - everything is set upon us all we have to do is to ask or request it from Him. Financial blessing, health, love and abundance is at our tip of of our tongue, ready to spill out for our Lord to grant.

3. He give us joy and happiness - contentment is with the Lord. When we remove fear into our heart, love , happiness and joy will flow easily into our whole being.

4. God gave us empowerment to be able to do his will - the Lord leave us his Words through the Bible, it has all the answer to our questions and teachings that able us do beyond our potentials.

Are your experiencing fear and doubt right now due to problems and challenges you are facing? Love, sickness, financial problem? I do too, I have my worries as well, all people experienced it but there is a way, believe it will end up soon. In God's perfect timing all will turn out that it is for our own good, problems teaches us a lesson. It made us wiser and mature.

Fear not, when all things are shut down for you. Maybe it's about time to look up!... God is watching, He is willing and able to help you.

For inspiring ideas you want to share with us, feel free to write your comments and let us inspire one another.

Why Money is important?

It's been awhile since I last posted an article in my blog. However, during those times that I am not active I've come to realized things and ponder about it.

All over the place here in the Philippines you can see lots of banners, leaflets .. items used for the elections. New faces of candidates surfaces seeking for a position in a government. But who knows what is their intentions.. is it truly for public service or for money?

Thinking of these things I ask my self , is money really important? Well, for me it is since we are living in a world where all material things are present all around, it makes the world evolve, they say. Anyway I think money is good if the person holding and using it is good, it just becomes evil when someone with evil thinking used this for personal gains.

I come to wonder how rich become more richer and poor becomes more poorer? help me find out how we ordinary people can be financially abundant.

I just recently joined a group formed by Mr. Bo Sanchez, and hopefully, the visioned of a financially abundant life, free from worries & debts and with lots of people I can help will soon come true. Come start with me here AT TRULY RICH CLUB!

HOW TO SURVIVE FROM TROUBLE

Since we have been experiencing hardship all over the world, especially here in the Philippines, that due to typhoon Ondoy, many people died and left most of our countrymen homeless, streets are still in floods. It is so hard to think even more of having a good time right, but I believe that in every trials and troubles that comes our way God has a purpose for it.

I want to share with you the good news, our preacher shared with us during our prayer meeting last Friday, October 9,2009.

HOW TO SURVIVE FROM TROUBLE?

T- talk to God in prayer. The Lord never will forsake those people who seek for His mighty help. Talk to God about your troubles in prayer and He will answer all the questions and things that hard to understand. Our 911 line to God is from Jeremiah 33:3 " Ask me and I will tell you things that you don't know and can't find".

R - remember God's goodness. In this world we will experience trials and great troubles but while we are in that situation, always remember God's goodness to us. All the blessings He gave and provided. Remember also that God continue to work for the goodness of people whom he loved and those who follow His will.

O-obey the leading of the Holy Spirit. We have to listen to what the Holy Spirit is telling us. God's Spirit should be our guide in order for us to have a prosperous and happy life. The Spirit give us Life.

U -understand God's purpose behind trouble. We have to realize from our selves what the Lord wants to tell us out of this troubles. Maybe it is for us to become strong and re-affirmed our faithfulness to Him. God will not give us problem that we cannot endure. When we are weak, God is strong.

B- be positive. "Always keep your minds on whatever is true, pure, right, holy, friendly and proper. Don't EVER stop thinking about what is truly worthwhile and worthy of praise" (Philippians 4:8). People who give up never wins, those who wins are people who never give up, remember that.

L - look unto Jesus. Many people have different believes but for us Christian, we believe that the only way to having everlasting life is through Jesus. Look unto Jesus for all the troubles we are experiencing right now. His yoke is easy to carry and His burden is light, come and seek Jesus and He will surely give us rest.

E - expect a way out. Trials and troubles may come and will surely never will leave us while we are in this world, but we have to believe and expect that there is always a way out of this
troubles.

I hope these messages will give you encouragement, may it increase your faith to God, and may it gives you hope that with God's help everything will definitely be fine.

MICHAEL JACKSON LIFE'S FINAL CHAPTER

How could you forget the thriller man, a famous dance moon walk.. The person gifted with great voice, world's pop icon - Michael Jackson. Truly, anyone especially well-known personality once we heard the word about death is such a devastating feeling. Though his life may have been filled with rumors, drama and humilation.. the fact still remain in tact, he became part of our life. He may have left the world but his song will always remind us that once upon a time - there is a Michael Jackson who bring joy and inspiration to all of us through his songs.

Life is short but if we live it to the fullest, it is a worthwhile travel towards our true home with God.

The Best Way To Greet DAD is...

Pinoymom Blogger is one of my favorite blogger, not just because she is a woman like me but the impact she had on me while reading her blog. She can really relate to her readers. A very tough but loving mom. Reading the story about her recovery makes me more strong in a sense that though we experience pain, hope is still there and as a person God created us to have courage. That is the character which Ms. Noemi impart in me. Furthermore, she is vocal in expressing her point of view, that is truly a Pinay! How I wish I had that type of personality.

Anyway, the reason I write this article is for you to check her blog's contest for Father's Day. How is the best way to greet our Papa, Tatay or Daddy. She'll be giving away 1 dozen of Krispy Kreme Donuts.. yummy, right? Just by putting your comments about best gesture you did for your dad, you can win and you can announce your love to your father to the whole world via internet! Come on guys! check it out, the promo is til June 30, 2009 only. Did I mentioned I won? hahaha, actually yes I did and I am so happy about it! What is really great about it is that it gave me the opportunity to tell my father how much he means to me. Imagine, thousands of Ms. Noemi's follower will read it.

Showing our gratitude to or parents determines how rightfully they raise us up. In fact, giving honor to your parents is a thing which the Lord gives favor and with a promise found in the bible Ephesians 6:2-3 “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.”

Life's fantasy.. a happy ending

I am a person who always believes in happy ending. Maybe this is because of the fairy tales stories I watched during my kinder year, the romantic telenovela I enjoy following when I was just a teenager. Or maybe the love I experienced to have during my full grown years.

But happy moments do not come all the time. You sometimes experience pain, fear and loneliness.

Some good things just don't last. Why is it so easy to give your all to someone but so hard to let go? Why is it so painful to say good bye? Why it breaks your heart just by remembering the past? The more you endure it, telling yourself you are fine .. the pain just don't go away.

Still, you believe and hang on. Time comes when broken heart is healed. You become strong person to face your fear..ready to share and love again.

Life is what we make it, I always believe. You can never be happy if you let others turn you down. When people hurt you, think of them as sandpapers. They may rub and scratch you painfully, but eventually you will end up smooth and polish, while they end up useless.

Life is not easy, but if you make it right, life is a beautiful story where you can be your own hero.
You create each chapter with pages full of wonders and happy thoughts. Your life can be someone's inspiration.

Living a joyful life creates a beautiful fantasy, simple it may be. Soon enough, you will realize a happy ending is what you got.
