Donate your Boat to Charity!

God said that He came to earth to serve and not to be served. We, while in the pursuit for Christ-likeness, would want to do the same. As pursuing this, we look up to God, who has become the best model on how to work for others generously and sincerely.

There are several ways to help those who are in need. Most of us share our talents and anything that we have for other’s sake. Some give a portion of their wealth to bring happiness to the poor. These and more bring glory to God.

Today, we are entrapped in a world of plastics and metals and robots. Nonetheless, the glory of God remains prevalent because of the generous people who are like stars studded in a vast black space. That, even online, nothing stops people from giving a portion of their life for others. Among the sites that will testify this is the www.boatangel.org.

Angel Ministries is the root of boatAngel, where
boat donations are used to create children's animations and anti-drug documentaries. You can find on their site a preview of several positive media produced by their ministry instead of (like most donation firms) the salaries produced for those who work there.

If you want to
donate boats too, you can assure that the proceeds will also go to the rehabilitation of teens and new hope for the prisoners. When you are ready to say to yourself: “I’ll donate my boat to charity”, do it for God’s glory. God knows your intentions, and He is just enough to make the compensation.

SALAMAT

I was so inspired to sing earlier. I was playing the beatbox, while performing alone >> in front of my little brother haha (maybe it’s because of the practice yesterday that was actually postponed). I don’t know why but it was just something different. I missed God. I realize that I have been so preoccupied with my home-based job. Im sorry Lord.

It feels good to miss Him. Such intense feeling has given me the enthusiasm to make a new song for Him (in spite of all the deadlines haunting me).

This is called SALAMAT…. Salamat sayo aking AMA. Dahil sayo, nakakagawa ako ng kanta.. huhuhu… this is only for You my Father.

SALAMAT

by chibi


Salamat, Salamat
Sa’yong kamay, sa’yong ngiti
Salamat, Salamat
Sa luha, at sa yakap

Refrain:
Alam kong hindi naman ako karapat dapat sa iyo
Ngunit ika’y nandyan, nananatiling tapat
At nagmamahal
Salamat, salamat


Chorus:

Aking Ama anong magagawa’t maibibigay
Ng ‘sang tulad ko
Ni walang maihahandog
Liban sa buhay
Na Sa’yo lamang iaalay


This is actually my first tagalog christian song compo :D

Dad's ringtone is HOLD ON!

Most of my friends know that my favorite song is HOLD ON. This is from a Christian Contemporary music band called 33 miles. The lyrics is perfectly catchy because it strikingly influences everyone’s heart- it's as if Jesus is talking through that song. So everytime someone listens to this song for the first time, I know, he/she considers it LSS. I bet, even my dad.

I never thought that my dad will appreciate such kind of music. I remember some months ago when he asked me to download some songs in his cp. I don’t have a huge collection of worldy songs but I do have countless mp3s of CCMs and PWs. Some of the tracks that I have shared with him were one way, tell the world, Lord I give you my heart, shout for joy, and HOLD on.

My friends know how I like HOLD ON, and you guess how my heart jumped when I heard my dad’s phone rang. I smiled and look up, “Lord thank you for the gentle heart of my dad, who appreciates songs from me.” I believe, my dad is also proud of my compositions as he tells stories about these to his friends.

Music has always been part of my life. And I thank God for the father that he has given me, for he has never become a hindrance to any of my pursuits. He is supportive and kind to me. I know he is imperfect but God knows how I love him. Thank you Lord for the gift. Thank you for my dad’s life.

HOLD ON
by 33Miles
Ive been there a thousand times
Felt the rain like a thousand knives and it hurts
I know it hurtsIve been there like a fighter plane
Trying to fly my way through a hurricane and its hard
I know its hardDont be afraid
Youll make it through
Just call out to me
And Ill come running to you
Hold onHold on
When the current pulls you under
And your heart beats like thunder
Just give me your hand
And hold on
Hold onuntil the storm is over
And Ill be fighting for you
Just give me your hand
And hold on
Ill give you hope Ill give you faith
And if its dark Ill light the way for you
For youBy your side until the end
Until youre standing tall again
Iâm here
Ill always be here
Always be here
and if the tide sweeps you out to sea
When your strength is gone and its hard to believe
Hold on
Hold on
When the current pulls you under
And your heart beats like thunder
Just give me your hand
And hold on
Hold onuntil the storm is over
And Ill be fighting for you
Just give me your hand
And hold on

Evangelism Through Christ


I am a writer. And I never knew I can be a public speaker. It even feels perfect when you become God’s spokesperson even in just a day.

Sunday, July 6, 2008, I was tasked to deliver God’s word in our Adult ministry service. At first, I was anxious about the topic that I am going to share. But then, I remember, it will be God who’s gonna talk not me.

As I browse through the bible and other reading materials, God revealed me the topic about evangelism. Almost all verses and subjects that I look through tell me that evangelism is the right topic. WOuld you belive that even when i browse through my friends' blogs, GOd revealed signs? So I obeyed.

Later on, I have come up with ETC…. the memory abbreviation that I used. These letters stand for Evangelism Through Christ. These also stand for the checklist that I have shared with my brothers and sisters who attended the service.

The word of God during the service: Romans 1:16-17

I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the
salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For
in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by
faith from first to last,[
a]
just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."

Indeed, we have nothing to be ashamed of when talking about the glory of our Father. Nonetheless, there are times that we tend to disobey the holy spirit. Like when we are trapped in a situation with a friend or a stranger. Many times, a conversation with someone brings us to a panic when the holy spirit asks us to introduce Jesus. We tend to struggle with the mind battle about where and how to start.

The main thing that God has brought up during that talk was about the success of evangelism. We must have a checklist called ETC.

3 relevant questions to answer:
E – are you EFFECTIVE?
T – are you TRUTHFUL?
C – are you COMPASSIONATE?

EFFECTIVE evangelism
Do you listen to the holy spirit? Do you know your audience or carefully build up good relationship with him/her/them? Do you know the purpose of sharing the gospel to him/her/them?

TRUTHFUL evangelism
Do you share biblical truths? How often do you browse the bible? How well do you know GOD? How big is your authority to talk about the gospel? Do you just invent responses to your friends’ queries?

COMPASSIONATE evangelism
Are you also in the pursuit for Christ-likeness? Are you as patient and considerate as Christ? Do you just choose whom to evangelize?

Glory to God for the teachings that he has again revealed to us. We are praying that we will achieve ETC to attain God’s righteousness. Indeed, it takes a lot of discipline to be a perfect God’s general. It is tough but we can do it anyway.

Missing kuya

Kuya left for Dammam last june 23. He was supposed to leave last june 22 but his flight was cancelled because of typhoon frank. We were there at NAIA when when the typhoon signal was raised to 3. Foreigners were walking barefooted like wet chicks. But it was not that awful indeed. It was just raining hardly and the wind was striking furiously.

Later in the afternoon, kuya went straight to bayview hotel while me and ate sarah directed to SM Sucat. The flood got worse and we thought we could not go home because of the water level down the road. Praise God because there was one jeepney driver who was brave enough to get accross the flood. We arrived in Lopez at 5pm. Wheew...

The next morning, Kuya finally left and i was not able to go and say bye at the airport. He left at 9:20 am.. He'll be back 18 months from now.. I'm missing kuya....but i believe God is there to keep things alright. God will protect him.. God is good!

reality about adult men

Some terms used in this post are sensitive. Nonetheless, let us bear higher
level of understanding while reading facts...


Humans are dicontented by nature. And it’s somehow so dismaying. Among the most common manifestations of this is the desire of men to have bigger body parts. Working out to attain good physical appeal is nice, however, a lot of men go for more complicated alterations like penis extender surgeries. There are natural ways used as penis extender like those introduced in CostPriceOnline.com. Nonetheless, no matter how good the cost analysis presented in this site is, one should have the wisdom about determining which is right from wrong. For you, is changing your body that much (as penis extender) pleasing in the eyes of God?

More free online games

One of the most popular pastimes in our office is playing online games. Just imagine how professionals (who wear hood and tie) get into such addictive fake chore while in front of their laptops. In case you are guilty of these remarks, there is nothing to be ashamed. Everyone has the right to be child-like sometimes.

Knowing the dramas behind the
online games, one will surely get addictive especially when the site is perfectly designed for adventurous gamers. Different themes are already prevalent in all corners of the web, as among the most unique sites that I have visited is the cool martial art online games site – the wixgame.com.

Entertaining games lead by main characters like fiction hero, spiderman will surely amaze you as you enter that site. I was certain that I’ll come back for more
online games. If you want check out what I am talking about, then take a break and surf wixgame?
