Jericho Rosales and Kim Jones Wedding

I am addicted to wedding videos. And as i lazily browsing through Youtube, this video

caught my attention, once again. Though I've seen it for how many times since it was being uploaded, i still find myself being fascinated by this. It was indeed a heart warming wedding of Echo & Kim. I just simply admire how they love each other. Sharing their wedding on my blog.

prayer

This morning, I came across to a particular email that caught my attention. A very simple yet powerful

prayer that all of us must utter. Here.

My Father—You are my watchful Provider and my daily Supplier. Thank You that I am never out of Your sight or Your care. I am so grateful to be Your child—to be upheld by Your hand, to be strengthened by Your grace, to be renewed by Your mercies, to be covered by Your wings, to be kept by Your power, to be reassured by Your word, to be refreshed by Your Spirit, and to be given a place at Your table.

Thank You for the bread you place before me—not yesterday’s portion, but new and fresh—wholesome, nourishing, hearty. Bread prepared by Your hand to give me exactly what I need today.

Thank You for not only providing my daily bread, but for breaking bread with me—being near, communing, listening, knowing my heart, being familiar with all my ways. I partake today of Your healing bread, sustaining bread, enabling bread, life-giving bread. Quicken my body, restore my soul, energize my spirit. Fill my hungry heart!

I know when I ask for bread You will not give me a stone. I rejoice in the declaration of the Psalmist, “I have never seen the righteous forsaken or his seed begging bread.” Come, Father, dine with me and I will be full, sup with me and I will be satisfied, be my portion and I will delight in your abundance.

Oh, Lord, You are my portion forever!

Why do you spend money for what is not bread,

And your wages for what does not satisfy?

Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,

And let your soul delight itself in abundance.

Isaiah 55:2 NKJV

sunday by the bay

Few days ago, my sisters and I planned a simple sunday getaway for a simple birthday celebration of my precious niece. Although it surely broke our hearts, we decided to skip the Sunday service. All of our days are so hectic considering that we are all full time workers. And spending sunday on a getaway surely gives us an enormous amount of happiness. We ponder upon the thought that we deserve such laid back moments where in we would just hang out, talk, laugh and eat.A very rare sunday indeed. It was Andi's 3rd birthday :) And I could say that it was fantastic ♥

Below are some vignettes of our sunday by the bay :)

when all else fails

a love story written in heaven

I can't think of a very lovely love story but my parents' story. I am perfectly in awe how their story was chronicled by the writer of love stories Himself. My parents are indeed a match made in heaven.

I am beyond blessed because i witnessed a very near perfect story. My sister posted something about their anniversary. And i hope she wont mind at all if i chose to post it on my blog. I am sorry Ante, but really, it's nice. like you. ♥

my sissy's post :

Ok, here's my list (not in order): I can think of Jack Dawson and Rose Dewitt Bukater, Landon Carter and Jamie Sullivan, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Who else? Ah, the famous vampire lovers Edward Cullen and Bella Swan (though I always want it to be Bella and Jacob), Serendipity's Jonathan Trager and Sara Thomas. Then there's Augustus Waters and Hazel Grace Lancaster, and the list continues, so on and so forth.. These are merely characters, main characters, of some of the most beautiful love stories in Hollywood. And I am a believer of a love story, simply because I'm a product of one. Now, excuse me for my introduction. My only point of posting this is that July 16th is not a day for typhoon Glenda but a Kiss from heaven. It's actually a celebration of an indescribable God-written love story. And it's my favorite love story, my own favorite love story. It's a kind of true love that can't even be found in fairy tales or anywhere else. Needless to say, I together with my sibs were a big part of it. We have seen it. We have witnessed it. We felt it. And just like any other normal human being, we are so proud for our parents!! Happy 36th mom and dad!!! It's a celebration here on earth that reaches to heaven. This photo is an evidence for their gift of love, a sacrificial and lasting kind of love.. Amazing Grace!!
