Me, My Doc and the Needy

The best part of having a doctor for a fiance (besides from the free medical attention she's giving me) is having the opportunity to witness, firsthand, God's miracle of healing through her...Just recently, i was invited to go with her on a medical mission at Lucena. It was a long (and i really mean long) drive...of course, i (her knight in shining armor) was gracious enough (ahem) to drive for her. Riding with us were her co-doctors. A conversation with God broke out in my head while we were on the way to the site. And i remember God impressing in my heart this kind of ministry in the future...and it kinda got me excited! I don't mind driving long hours, having sleepless nights and unbearable body aches if i know that it was all because i gave my time to those who need it! I will never call these kind of charity work "waste of time"...it's more of an opportunity to get their attention on more important things like their Spiritual Condition. I believe that attending to their Physical needs is just a way for us to attend to what's really important...their SOUL! Half way to the trip, i looked at my doc on the passenger seat (that sounded cheezy) and felt a bolt of gratitude in me that God had brought us together for a chance to Glorify Him as one. I can't think of anyone else to partner with me and all my crazy ideas! So even if at the end it's just going to be me, my doc and the needy...it's ok...it's more than enough for me!

Faith in the PNP

As I got on the bus going to work, an early morning news program was being shown on the “on-board Audio Video system” (not much of a system if you ask me). The reception was not that good; you can hardly recognize the person speaking but in fairness…the audio was quite bearable. I shifted my attention to the fast moving traffic while trying to decode the garbled sound that was being thrown at us...then I heard a phrase that really got my interest…a Director of the PNP (Philippine National Police) was being interviewed during a charity walk that had just concluded…and he addressed the current controversy on corruption that the PNP has been facing for the past month…he said something that gave me the HOLY GOOSE BUMPS…and I’ll quote "ang pagbabago sa PNP ay manggagaling lamang sa pananampalataya sa Panginoon" Change in the PNP will only come from having faith in the Lord. *TING* My soul’s self consciousness was sending signals to my mentality trying to confirm the legitimacy of what I’ve heard …then after 30 seconds, a smile broke out…yup…what he said was absolutely true! But let me tweak it a little bit for better understanding!

Let me break it down to you like this…the only good change (absolute good) that will happen to us begins at Salvation. When we accept Christ as our own Personal Savior, the first wave of change happens…instantly we are not anymore of our father the devil, we are now Adopted Royalties...not a second later, we have inherited the Perfect Righteousness of God as the basis of his blessings for us...right then and there, we have access to grace gifts and problem solving devices! BUT WAIT…THERE’S MORE! Those are just the preliminaries…as time goes by and when we become diligent in studying the Word of God, our capacity for life increases…thus giving us the opportunity to be used of God as a source of blessing for others…and when we have reached that point where in God’s Grace is evident in our lives and the principles of God are just overflowing from our conscience…we then become a part of the pivot point of that much awaited CHANGE!

Change should be done from the inside out…not the other way around! An internal proponent should be established as the foundation of every decision you will do that will bring about change. so…I say yes…change has to come from our Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ…nothing else can bring about such divine change!

OPTRA Anyone???

Don't mind the guy at the back...but feast your eyes on one of the limited Chevrolet Optra 1.8 ever released here in the Philippines! It's an automatic...with power windows, power lock, flower power, power puff and more! It's the only model distinguished with it's stylish skirting. if you want to see more pix of the unit, visit my photo album at teedjei.multiply.com...and if you are interested to see it just contact me at 09287119012 and we can set a date and negotiate on the price!

hmmm...for some reason i fell in love with this car and it kinda stings just typing out this blog...but...i know that someone else out there deserves to experience the best kind of driving luxury this optra can give! never underestimate it's age...because i can assure you that this baby right here still can still compete, in terms of speed and stability, with other high end cars!

Joke-Joke Bulate (purtilayser pond skam)


only in the Philippines would you hear about a whole Senate Committee being formed to investigate about overpriced fertilizers...yes...you heard me right...FERTILIZERS! It is only in our government where you will find officials having the audacity to profit in every stinking program they can get their hands on! The corruption level of our public servants has reached a level of unthinkable integrity loss...and when Integrity is lost, the downfall begins. God is the only being who has perfect integrity, so who do you think can help us with our current state? start building your character...start investing in your integrity bank...and divine truths are the only currency that you should be depositing in your norms and standards. If you are a Christian, and you've taken that first step of accepting Jesus as your savior, then you are on the right track! The next step now is learning principles from the Word of God that should be your guide to life. And through the application of those principles you gain the integrity that is needed to be a pivot point for this country!
