THE SEARCH IS OVER ?

Eastwood Libis, one of the industrialized  place  in the Philippines. Since we are not familiar with the place we just ask from here and there. " Bossing san po 'yong Galerie Stephanie ? " Um di ko alam eh " answer the guard. Next station. "Bossing san po 'yon PARC Bldg. ?" "Ah Parkview  pasok kayo sa mall at labas kayo." instruct the guard. Since we are a good follower we just follow where it leads. The sun set already but still we didn't find what we are looking for. All of us feel lost in the middle of the City. Next station "Bossing saan po 'yon 183 E. Rodriguez ?" "Saan 'yon ?" reply the guard.  Rephrase the question. " E.Rod na po ito ? " Oo "reply the guard on duty " So ano na pong number dito ? "  "Di ko alam eh". Still wrong answer, or wrong question?. But as it says, "ask and it will be given to you, find and you'll find what you are looking for. " Since Anthony is giving up of feeling Lost. He told  "let us look for the police  station we are lost! " Feeling hopeless and tired, makes one to give up ? Never! Laugh with the challenge, it is a maze waiting to unfold. Fortunately as we're looking for the Police Station, yes its the answer because in- front of it is the place we're looking for. Yes the search is over but the joy of founding it just started. Playing "patentero" on the street with the buzzing vehicle make our serious life turn to be a child  that moment. Finally we enter the gallery look for the exhibit, it's amazing if you know that work of beautiful art is an acquaintance and friend of mine. Since Reybert is busy doing the interview we just welcome ourselves. But since Apol and Anthony feel tired ? They didn't want to take the refreshment on the table. Red wine, ice tea, water ? I offer "No I have water with me " taray! May baon ka nga. So what's next. Just drink 2 shot of red wine, a glass of water, and an ice tea + bread and macaroni. After this want to know if we have mutual acquaintance,  as a sales person I need to initiate to make stranger an acquaintance. Get my calling card and exchange it to somebody next to me. Need to do some, sort of activity. But before we go we need to say hi and goodbye to the host of this exhibit. Little bit awkward but we need to interrupt just a bit, to honor him. Short but captivating. At the end of the day life is what we make it. Mistake deleted to have another chance for tomorrow.

WHAT IS YOUR BRAND ?

     The famous the brand of one product the greater the value is. As a consumer if there is latest product in the market I'll give it a try. But as the advertisement fade, I go back to the product that I've proven for years.  The product that good for me doesn't guaranty that it is also good for others. But what is the real essence of the product why we purchase it? Is it only dependent on the brand? From food, toiletries, drugs their is generic and a branded one. Majority purchase for the famous brand and minority on the generic, because it is affordable than the branded one. Consumers are divided. Branded and generic has the same features, but endorsers, highly recommend branded one. But a wise consumer must be responsible to test either one of the two. Its not only by what others tell but you have  to prove it on your own.
     God's love today become branded by different religion and groups. Everyone claim that they are God's chosen one. The famous the leader, the group, the religion, its members the more follower it has. Being one of the doubtful person before, and test either there is God or none at all. I've experience God's love in a personal way that our God and Father is a living God  and He dwells in our hearts. Not by buildings, religions, groups or temple. My faith return because of love that different strangers gave to me freely without expecting  any cost. God uses them. Boyet is a Catholic Christian, Marixie a born again Christian, Steph belong to a non-Sectarian Church, Rudy from Church of God, Others have no religion at all but their love equally transformed me  from being an Atheist to a God's Faithful Servant. In my search I transfer from one religion to another, from one community to another, from one place to another. Their is no perfect religion or community as someone is claiming . But if you feel the love, God is very alive.Why claim that you are the only one who will be save? To have power over the coward ones. Its not the fear that God dwells but its in love. Friends why claim that you are righteous but so selfish. If God dwells in you, you reflect God's love not greediness, isolation, racist, division because this things turn out to be evil's weapon to destroy humanities. Religion become a commercial thing for some. Love unite us. Do you think that when our flesh died and the spirit in us separate, do our Abba Father will ask about your religion ? What is the use of your organization, religion, prestige, wealth if love wasn't seen in you. Because God is love and if love dwells in You be happy your gateway to heaven is widely open. Be blessed and perfectly in love.

THE VOICE OF A CHILD

https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150634640561700
     Palm Sunday,  a feast of welcoming Jesus not only inside the temple but most especially in our lives.
     Its a Sabbath day so its my day to reflect, keep silent and hear God's voice. I started praying when a father and child arrive. The father didn't care about the child. He didn't held the hands of his child. For the thought that this child is just four years of age. She might get lost because of humongous crowd that day was. The father silently pray and the child roar with cough. And when its time to leave, the father get out with out noticing if his daughter is with him. I was touch when the little voice beg and shout "Father!", one word but it means a lot. For   the little child it means "father please wait, don't leave me." That's the only time the father held her hands. The father and child was no longer at my sight but it leaves an impact.
     When we pray God knows what we want, but we have to ask, we have to humble our-self because we know that with out God's will we couldn't make it.Yes He gave us free will, but asking, telling that we still need Him in our life. Because without Him we are nothing. May this Lenten Season leaves impact to our life  not only for this season but in every moment of our life. :) :) :)
