Just ALL that I AM (Psalm 103)

"1 Let all that I am praise the Lord;
with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name."

Lord, with all that I am praise you.
What does it mean "all that I am?"
I AM right now is not so good.
I AM might not be a worthy offering.
I Am right not is frustrating.
Weak.
Tired.
Imperfect.
Sweating.
Hungry.
Thirsty.
Complaining.
I AM.
But ALL THAT I AM is what you want to Praise you.

"2 Let all that I am praise the Lord;
may I never forget the good things he does for me."

ALL THAT I AM will praise you.
Not because of my goodness but Because of YOUR GOODNESS.
Lord, there are times I forget all you've done, instead, I think of what I'm doing for you.

"5 He fills my life with good things.
My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!"
14 For he knows how weak we are;
he remembers we are only dust."

Lord, how mindful you are! You knew that I AM weak. You promise renewed strength like the eagle's. You know me Lord. You know who I AM.

"8 The Lord is compassionate and merciful,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
9 He will not constantly accuse us,
nor remain angry forever.
10 He does not punish us for all our sins;
he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve.
11 For his unfailing love toward those who fear him
is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.
12 He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west.
13 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
Our days on earth are like grass;
like wildflowers, we bloom and die.
16 The wind blows, and we are gone—
as though we had never been here.
17 But the love of the Lord remains forever
with those who fear him."

Lord, You are Patient with me. You really know who I AM.
You know that at times I AM stubborn, I stumble and make mistakes. But you are slow to Anger. You remind me that even how many times I fail you, YOU are filled (Umaapaw!) w/ unfailing Love. Your love is not just unfailing, it is also infinite. I know Lord we will soon be gone. You know that our time is short, yet, you God who is infinite and everlasting remains the same.

Why do I keep reminding myself of my sins? When God took it all away as far from the East is from the West. Do you know how far that is?
Definition: "one never actually gets to "east" or "west". It is an unobtainable goal, so the matter isforever. When God says "as far as the East is from the West" it means forever because one can never travel to either destination as a destination."

That's how far you took my Sins away!

You Lord Our Father- Tender and compassionate.

Today, Lord Renew My strength. I am weak and tired. But Lord just like what you promised, Renew my strength just like the Eagle's!!

Radiant Eagerl Takes Flight!!!

WANT TO WALK ON WATER? STEP OUT OF YOUR BOAT!

Sometimes I get frustrated in discipleship.  My frustrations might seem directed towards people but its actually the FEARS thats eating them alive. I am angry at that. I really want to send them back to where they belong. I mean the Fear ha? Not the person! But at the same time you feel very helpless to help the person. You can't help someone unless they want the help. In my reverie, I thought of one of my rhemas lately in prayer. It was Peter walking on water in Matthew14:27-31. As I dwell in the Word, I also felt what Peter was going through. Have you ever tried wanting to experience something soooooo amazing it requires something from you really crazy? I dont really know what Peter's intentions were when he decided to step out of the boat and walked on water. It might have sounded like a way for him to prove it was really Jesus walking on water. So he asked Jesus to call him out and Jesus said, "Yes, come." (But as for me in my curre...

Bring them back to Repentance? IMPOSSIBLE

This message in Hebrews 6:4 to 6, can be a warning to 3 people: Those who ‘turned away from God”; Those who have not ‘turned away from God and; Those who know people who “turned from God”.   It stands as a warning to us.  Have we heard God’s voice and trembled? I don’t mean fear that keeps us from coming to God, but the kind of fear that is spoken in Proverbs as “the foundation of wisdom.” We fondly pray that God would speak to us and hear His voice but do we really know what we are praying? It reminded me of the Israelites who were at the foot of Mount Sinai. When they heard God’s thunderous voice, they did not dare come nearer and asked Moses to speak in their behalf (Deuteronomy 5:23-27). To quote Francis Chan, “When you pick up your Bible, you are actually holding something better than a voice coming out of a cloud on the top of a mountain.” So this warning must really create a Holy fear in us that will keep us from turning away from God. It ...

Hospital Beds, IV's and Birthdays

Last September 28, 2011, Wednesday was Ate Myra's Birthday. Sadly, she was admitted at the DMSF Hospital a night before because she had a seizure and hyperventilated. On her birthday I dropped by Ma Anne since I was just around PISD (official business po)... While I was there I asked her if I could stay for lunch since my next appointment would be after lunch. She suggested that if I could visit ate Myra at the hospital. I agreed. She asked me to bring te Myra bananas (isang piling ng saging na may love letter ni Ma Anne, jajaja!!).. Then Off I go!! I arrived at hospital before lunch. Ate Joy (one of Ma Anne's P12) was with her. We chatted then I gave her the bananas (jejeje...she was overwhelmed. Very touched!!) She shared to me what happened why she was rushed to the ER and now admitted to the hospital. And how God was gracious with her, blessing her with classmates, teachers, C.I's and even their dean on her admission. Even the room was already reserved for another patie...
