God's message for me today
Dear Ryah,
Not all blessings are created equal. Some blessings are temporary. Some blessings are permanent.
The Blesser,
God
God
P.S. Ryah, when you enjoy your permanent blessings (love, people, relationships) first, you’ll be able to enjoy your temporary blessings even more.

I love to give you good things.
Get ready,
God
P.S. Good, good, good stuff, Ryah.

I am ready Lord God. Thank you in advance! ;)
God's message for me today
Dear Ryah,
I must warn you: The life I call you to live includes suffering. But not suffering for suffering’s sake. But suffering for the sake of love! And when it is done for love, suffering is sweet and beautiful.
Love,
God
God
P.S. Ryah, love isn’t love without suffering for the beloved.

I will remember this Lord God. Thank you.

Just when I need it...
I don't know if it's hormonal (I'm having my period) or it's because of something else, that's causing my "unusual but familiar feeling."
Sometimes, I get tempted to ask God to literally take out the pain in my heart, to remove the bad memories in my mind and to heal my brokenness right away, but I control myself since I believe in God's perfect timing, timing which is very different from ours. I also believe in God's miracle and I know nothing is impossible with Him.
Of course, it's hard to wait (especially when you don't know what you are waiting for), sometimes it's too tiring to struggle, but as always, God sends circumstances and people to give me peace, love, understanding and support that I need, the reassurance that God has a beautiful plan for me, for us, and everything is happening and will happen according to HIS plan and that alone gives comfort to my weary heart.
Just today, I received this email, God's way of speaking to me...

"If we really want God to redeem the bad situations in our lives, we have to accept that the way to get there is through the cross. We have to be willing to endure the difficulties, and in enduring them, learn patience, and in learning patience, develop unconditional love for troublemakers, and in developing unconditional love, become more fully united with God who IS love."

Thank you Lord for the strength to endure that you provide everyday..

God's message for me today
Dear Ryah,
Don’t just talk about your problems; talk about your purpose. Because problems weigh you down. But purpose lifts you up. And if you pursue your purpose, many of your problems get solved along the way.
Father,
God
God
P.S. Your purpose will change you, Ryah.

I have no idea where I am going...

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going,
I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where it will end.

I cannot know for certain where it will end.
Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think I am following your will
does not mean that I am actually doing so.
and the fact that I think I am following your will

But I believe that the desire to please You does in fact please You.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.
And I know that if I do this You will lead me by the right road,
though I may know nothing about it.
I will not fear, for You are ever with me,
and You will never leave me to face my perils alone.
God's message for me today
Dear Ryah,
When you face a problem, instead of calling them problems, call them presents. And don’t call them burdens, call them blessings!
Abundance on the way,
God
God
P.S. One more thing, Ryah. Don’t call them trials, call them treasures.

Thank you Lord God for my presents. ;)

Dear Ryah,
Life is a giant restaurant. And you’re the customer. And the universe is the waiter. All of my creation is waiting for your order. What do you want? Most of what you’re experiencing in your life is a result of what you have ordered.Restaurant Owner,
God

P.S. Ryah, you order through your thoughts, your words, and your deeds.
Order wisely.

Yes Lord God, I will order wisely. ;)
I wish you enough...
A day after Valentines, I checked on Paulo Coehlo's blog, which I read once in awhile. Below is his post for Valentines which I find very timely and relevant for all of us. In this time and age, I believe that "having enough" of the basics is what we really need to achieve happiness.

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good- bye.
God's message for me today
Dear Ryah,
The inner world will always control the outer world. Don’t be afraid of storms around you. It’s the storms inside you that can destroy you. The stress. The tension. The worry.
Peace-Giver,
God
God
P.S. Surrender all that to me, Ryah.

Yes, Lord God, I surrender everything to you.

Dear Ryah,
Sometimes, I will lead you into a storm. Because storms are good. Storms shake you. And shaking is good. Shaking takes away your pride. Shaking takes away your complacency.
Hold on,
God
P.S. Ryah, shaking forces you to grow. And I want you to grow.

Dear Ryah,
Your reality is only limited by your vision. What you hold in your hand is only limited by what you see in your mind. Your inner world will always manifest in your outer world.
Manifest,
God
P.S. Here’s a fact: Your imagination is a blueprint of what will happen in your world, Ryah.

God's message for me today
Be a Blessing Expert. So you can spot a blessing a mile away. So you can know a blessing’s shape, smell, color, and sound. So you can see blessings everywhere.
Be happy,
God
P.S. Ryah, Blessing Experts are happy people.
Prayer is the key
Just when I am about to give up on praying for a particular request, I received this. I think God wants me to continue praying for it and never give up. Ok Lord, I will not give up...
***
One day Jesus told his disciples a story to illustrate their need for constant prayer and to show them they must never give up…Luke 18:1 NLT
Saved by a Stamp
God's answers to prayers can affect generations to come. In fact, if not for his gracious answers to a prayer offered many years ago, my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren would not know his blessing today.
The story is simple. My cousin Mirea and I wanted to visit friends in America. Sensing that we would not abandon our grand idea, my father sent us on our way with heartfelt prayers for our safety.
Our trip across Europe took several days. Finally we arrived on the western shores of England. But as we prepared to set sail for America, we were told there was a problem with our papers. Officials at the immigration office said Mirea was missing a stamp on a paper that would allow her to leave the country. We would have to stay in England for another week until Mirea's papers could be corrected, they said.
Mirea and I went to the steamship office to ask if we could exchange our tickets for a ship leaving later in the month. The man at the window was glad to make the exchange. He was sure he could resell our berths. People were eager to sail on the maiden voyage of the Titanic.
As we wandered back to the hotel, Mirea and I were disappointed that we had to stay in England. But, when the news reached us a few days later of the sinking of the Titanic, we both began to cry, in sadness for our lost shipmates, but also in relief, realizing how close we had come to death ourselves. God, in his mercy, had answered by father's father's prayer for our safety with something as small as a missing stamp. How good is God! - Elsa Sturit Kint

Dear Ryah,
Many people don’t only lack faith. They also lack patience. Remember, some
of your biggest blessings will come only through time.
Trustable,
God
P.S. Have faith and be patient—and your blessings will come, Ryah.
Yes Lord God, I will faithfully and patiently wait...

Dear Ryah,
This year, you’re not going to experience a drizzle of blessings. You’ll not experience a quick and light rain of blessings. This year, you’ll experience a downpour of blessings.

P.S. Ryah, expect it.

Yes Lord God, I am expecting your blessings, as always. :)
On forgiveness..
For many years, I always buy or get as Christmas gift the daily devotional book called "Our Daily Bread." But for 2011, I bought "Didache" which was published by Bo Sanchez. It is very much like Our Daily Bread but the stories are personal experiences of Filipino contributors, their names and email addresses are mentioned every after the write-up.
For today, 1 February (time flies so fast), the bible passage is about the woman who was afflicted with hemorrhage for twelve years (Mark 5:25). If you are familiar with the story, you would know that she was healed from her longtime suffering(sickness) when she touched the cloak of Jesus. The "twelve years" mentioned in the passage hit hard on me, I have given my twelve years to one person, many things happened... I am glad that God had finally brought deliverance in my life and now I am in the process of healing...
I copied the reflection written on the left panel of today's reading:
"Are you nurturing a hurt in your heart? Why not let it go now and start the process of healing?
Lord, it isn't easy to forgive. Please grant me the grace to let go of my hurts and to forgive the people who have wronged me."
***
Very timely, thank you Lord. Please teach me how to forgive and forget..
***
P.S.
I have read recently from mi amiga Lianne's blog a quote on forgiveness..
"Forgiveness is not the emotional response to being hurt. Forgiveness is not rationalizing. It is not just forgetting. It means cancelling a debt. Therefore, forgiveness is a choice, our choice."
