Love is You


I prayed to God for somethig specific about someone specific. Personal. He answered me specifically through the following verses in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, the Love chapter and the verses that describes that specific the most.

A rhema I've held for so long I desired to live it out. Not just to memorize but to make it actual. Particularly special in my heart for I have known love not as a fleeting feeling or emotion. But an actual person who made a specific decision.

What my specific request might be, I may not yet share for I myself do not fully understand. But someday I will. Oh someday I'll finally will.

For now all I know when I read each word, each line, reminds me of someone this time. Let me call this person 'You' for now.

"Love (You) endures with patience and serenity, love(You) is kind and thoughtful, and is not jealous or envious; love (You) does not brag and is not proud or arrogant. You is not rude; You is not self-seeking, You is not provoked [nor overly sensitive and easily angered]; You does not take into account a wrong endured. You does not rejoice at injustice, but rejoices with the truth [when right and truth prevail].(You) Love bears all things [regardless of what comes], believes all things [looking for the best in each one], hopes all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times], endures all things [without weakening].

Love(You) never fails [it never fades nor ends]..." (1 Cor.13:4-8, AMP version)

This is all I know.
And I trust the one who fully knows me.

'For now [in this time of imperfection] we see in a mirror dimly [a blurred reflection, a riddle, an enigma], but then [when the time of perfection comes we will see reality] face to face. Now I know in part [just in fragments], but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God].'
1 Corinthians 13:12

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...
