Sabi ni Father...

... The Lord is my destiny.


Well, it's true. I cannot count the number of times that God has saved me from my bad judgment. In fact, a lot of 'em are very close calls that all I was left with was to say, "Thank God He took control."

Beterana talaga yata ako ng mga maling desisyon at konklusyon. Kasi, I know that a lot of people will agree that being in a position where you are one of the parties blurs the line between LOGIC and OPTIMISM. ANd we are such stubborn creatures that we seldom listen first to God or even to the people who care for us because we think and feel that only us could ever understand the situation.

I don't know, it never has been a habit of mine to pray at designated hours or to even have a routine where I am compelled to talk to God... it's always been spontaneous, sometimes I find myself talking to Him inside a tricycle or a cab, or even while taking a shower, or while I am waiting for my turn to recite... it's just ME. I am not comfortable with conforming and to committing to something when I am not sure if I can actually finish or successfully follow it. It's actually fun to just talk to God the way you'd talk to your close friends... barkada kumbaga. It's very uhmm, effective.

Minsan nga lang, I find less time... and I can never find it in my heart to make excuses... it's futile to even bother because no matter how logical or how convincing it may sound to a human, excuses are not meant to give you a "pass" when it comes to Him. Nothing can justify lack of time for God because if He suddenly decides to not have time for you, basically, you are doomed. I constantly thank Him for the smallest of things because as cornball sounding as it may sound, these little things make life a li'l more exciting...

Finding the extraordinary out of the orindary... finding time to thank Him for allowing you to safely go home... finding time to thank Him for taking away your runny nose... even the most shallow of reasons like finding time to thank Him for a disaster date.

God really is the embodiment of our DESTINY. Just like God, we can never grasp, no matter how hard we try, the complexity of how things work and how things lead us to where we are right now. We can try but if we take away the layers of logic, reason and dedution, it all boils down to faith. FAITH is called Faith because no burden of proof is imposed, no contradiction could ever amount to a rebuttal and no supervening event could ever change it.

At the end of the day, FAITH becomes our companion, faith becomes our strength. FAITH becomes everything.
