i'm being challenged.
God has been my constant comfort. my life. my strength. and my protector. He just knows when and how to bring change and to somehow bring something new in my life.
i'm in tanzania. i feel at home and i feel blessed. the Lord just knows how to comfort when you are alone in a world where you don't know anybody.. but He gives you strength. He brings life to every person you meet. and He bring smiles to faces in this life.
there are times when you just don't know what to do and what to expect. and to just keep hanging on and believe that in everything there is a plan. maybe there is a feeling that time is running out. but then just keep on anchoring more to the Lord. keep on believing that His plans are better than my plans.. His will is the one to be followed.. and if He wants you to go somewhere, He will bring you there in the right place and time. i don't know how the Lord is carefully planning my life.. but i what i know is that in facing time and space, the Lord is bringing me to greater heights.. challenging me.. knowing that i will be a totally better person... He is just showing me great things.. things that we should appreciate, things that we should be thankful... and things that is magnificently beautiful.
i, alone just continues to trust and believe in Him. just continues to be still and let Him know that He is God. the God of the impossible.. the God of all beings.. the creator. the one who lays all His plans in a very perfect manner. the God who knows all things... =)
we are faced by time.. and we just have to trust.
and believe.

NAIROBI CHILDREN'S REMAND HOME
[click on the pic for more]
it's a joy to see their faces. i was moved. i shed a little tear. the nairobi children's remand home.
our first meeting with the kids. the orphans, abandoned, in conflict with the law, lost.
we just had a few games. sung deep deep.and have fun with them.
it was such a simple joy for me to see them smiling. knowing that in a way, God has used us to let these children smile for just a while. in a way, i have seen their poverty. i have seen how blessed i am. this site moved me in a way that i came to thank God for all the blessings He has provided for me. of course, i have my own sorts of problems in difficulty in life, but then as i saw these children, i just thank God for giving me a life. i thank Him for giving me a family.
now, i thank Him also for using me. again, i can it moved me. a lot. now, i challenge you to participate. if you are in the philippines, go to gk site and spend some time with the sagip or siga. sing with them, laugh with them, enjoy a day with them. and you'll be moved. and it will make you feel that you just want to come back because of that simple joy that God has given to you. that fulfillment and that feeling of wanting to help more. it actually helped me for it has shown me how to be grateful for what i have. i have a family, a community, and a home...
