I failed but God lifted me up

I failed to manage things in order. I never expected for the uncontrolled factors to happen. I have been so proud of myself thinking that I can do all things - but the truth is I CANNOT do all things! Father God, I am so sorry for being so proud, thinking that I can do this all alone. I actually need You but I keep on denying it to myself. I failed therefore I am a failure.  But You Lord, all the same, are still by my side lifting me up, guiding me through the right path and giving me company. I thank You, Lord!

I keep on thinking that I can do manage anything in my life. As long as I know what and when I am certain to need things, I can handle them. But things that are beyond my control came to hinder my ways. And I cannot do anything against it. It even comes to the point that people around me see me as a total disappointment. I failed to reach with their expectations. But I was wrong – totally wrong!

Now when I look to myself at the mirror, I found myself boasting around, I am so proud – the wrong pride that eats me. Then I started to cry. In the end, I still lose in the battle.

But Jesus lifted me up! He fulfills His promise that nothing can separate us. That even though I have been busy doing things alone, He always accompanies me. I wonder if He was there while things alone. Maybe He is actually there and I just ignored it.

After this failure, AND realization, Jesus and I became closer than ever! One of the qualities He has and is proven by me – He will never leave us even though we turn our back away from Him.

My make up mentor

I am not a make up artist nor an expert in this field. I just learned my make up skills through this mentor I had – Michelle Phan. I found her while surfing on the net – YouTube to be exact. One day after submitting my home exam to our professor via email, I was just browsing and browsing on the net. There was nothing to search in particular. Then I browsed on YouTube and found her video. This video is entitled “Seductive Vampire”. I was so fascinated with her step by step tutorial and it was amazing. From then on, I followed her channel and watched all the videos on it everytime I find time. And now I am following her updates and new video posts for more tutorials. I even copied one of her make up styles during one of our events in church. Thanks to her because I can now put on make up well on my face and also be able to do on others. I can now even try on other styles on my own. Her video tutorials are very great. P.S. I am not her friend nor has any personal relationship with he...

Divorce is allowed?!?

Hi guys, need help here. I am browsing on the net and found an interesting topic about divorce and remarry. One thing that ruins my innocent mind is this: God Allows an Exception to the General Rule When One's Spouse Has Been Guilty of Fornication. This exception is clearly stated in Matthew 19:9 (and 5:32).   "Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery" ("saving for the cause of fornication" - Matt. 5:32).   The question originally asked Jesus concerned the grounds or cause for which a man may divorce his wife (v3). In v9 Jesus clearly says there is no acceptable cause except if ones companion has been guilty of fornication.   Unlike the Mosaic Law, which Jesus admits tolerated divorce and remarriage for other causes, Jesus' teaching allows one and only one cause.   Note that the only one who is granted the right to divorce and remarry without being guilty of sin is the one who has been sinned...

Monthly Ouch!!!

This topic may sound too 'Eww' for this blog but as of now, I am experiencing the most severe menstrual cramps of all my life – leg pain! From the very first day of my first mens years ago, I usually have menstrual cramps and it is back pain. It is almost every month and sometimes accompanied by headache and fatigue. But now, actually since last month, my cramp goes down to my legs plus headache! I sometimes cannot walk normally because of this and I easily gets tired than ever! My boyfriend sometimes gets irritated because I always find ways to have take seat while we are hanging out. I did some research through my best friend Google and read a lot articles about menstrual cramps on leg pain and most of its symptoms match with my experience. And the two main cause of it are DEHYDRATION and LACK OF IRON in the body. Oh well I guess it is now clear to me why I am experiencing these cramps every month. From now on, I will carefully watch my diet, making sure I have enough iron...
