29th Post: Thanks To My Closest Friends and Friends of Friends for the 9 PM Prayer Offering

Oh, I would also want to acknowledge the initiative of my closest friends 
and friends of friends who keeps on praying for me every night 
at 9PM. They've been doing this since they became aware of my condition. 
Many thanks to all of you. 

You may not aware how thankful and grateful I am. 

My apologies that I wasn't able to acknowledge it here at once.  

Please know that  I am extending my sincerest thanks to all. 
I do not know some of you, but my prayers are with you as well -- daily. 

I can't repay you for what you have done for me and my family. 
I can only offer prayers for ALL of you. 
May you be able to receive and feel the GRACES of that prayers....
as I also receive the graces sent to me by your prayers. 

I may not be able to name your names as I pray  
for I am not aware whom my friends approached 
for prayer requests.. 
But you are aware and know who you are. 
And, God will be the one to send those graces to You. 

And if you know that you are one who's also praying for me...
please accept then that GOD's GRACE. It's for you....

Again, thanks with all my heart....
God bless US all. 

28th Post: Thank You Message to the CCPians

I would want to be grateful and thankful to my CCPian brothers and sisters. For the initiative of offering a prayer for me every 9PM straight for 1 week. Thank you so much! 

I am posting this request made by one of the elders as my way of showing my deepest appreciation. 


How can I turn all of you down. I have to make it and be worthy of all your prayers. Together in prayer and thanksgiving, we will all be winners. I will not let you down! With God on our side, who can be against us! 

"If you have faith as big as a mustard seed, you can say to this hill, "go from here to there" and it will go.  You could do anything" Matthew 17:20

It has been said also that "Nothing this impossible with God!".  God Bless US all!
   


Dear Alumni-CCPians' Prayer Warriors, 

Please include and agree in prayers for our Sister Ermie Aranza Rivera, she is undergoing regular chemotherapy as part of the treatment regimens. She is claiming God's favor and mercy according to the will, grace and promises of God for His chosen people. 

Thus, we agree in prayers for her immediate healing and also for the abundant provisions needed for her journey in life.

We also agree that may the Almighty God fulfills His promise of healing for Sister Ermie as we agree in prayer - in Jesus Name. Amen. Shabbat Shalom!

26th Post: Minsan Lamang (Just Once)

                            MINSAN LAMANG


THE COMMUNION SONG: ANG AWIT 


"Minsan lamang akong daraan sa daigdig na ito  
Kaya anuman ang mabuting maaring gawin ko ngayon
O anumang kabutihan ang maari kong ipadama
Itulot ninyong magawa ko ngayon ang mga bagay na ito.
Nawa’y huwag ko itong ipagpaliban o ipagwalang bahala
Sapagkat di na ako muling daraan sa ganitong mga landas."

I am not aware if there's an English version of this Church's Communion Song, but, hope to give justice as I translate it for those who don't speak our  Filipino language.   


THE SONG: 


              I'll pass this life's road only once (Life on Earth) 
Whatever goodness that I could possibly do now
or whatever kindness that I could share
let me do it now. 
May I not ignore, delay or postpone it
for I will never pass this road again. 

This is indeed true. We will never pass this road again and so we have to be at our best to do whatever we can NOW, in whatever way, no matter how small or big our intentions are. 

Time flies so fast. The dates will never come back again. Many times have been wasted. Let us not regret those times-- ANYMORE.  

I have wasted so many times. Valuable times. Valuable moments. Valuable hours.   

It's not yet late. Today is the time-- to start anew.....

Yes, I will only pass this road once and I will take this moment to make it worthwhile. ---even just ONE good deed - will make me the person in me somehow worthy of a life. Probably this blog is that ONE for now - as I share a big chunk of me. 

If I could do more GOOD DEEDS - that would be a plus or better a LEGACY that will remain even if I'm gone.
