      <description>            Life has been a process of constant changes and remaining memories. It's been such a long time since i put an entry here and such a very long time that i spent at least a handful of time here which i consider one of my greatest passion. As days go by, i struggle and wrestle to find myself back home with Him. There's a lot of things running through my life and inside my head. I was happy knowing that i am a dreamer, knowing that those dreams won't just end up as it is but will happen as you desire and pray for it. God knows. And i don't know and i'm not pretty sure what will happen... (more)</description>

                 A carrot, an egg and a cup of coffee... You will never look at a cup of coffee the same way again. 
                
                A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose. Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she... (more)</description>

      <description>                It's been a long time since i posted an entry here. It's been so long that i've thought a lot about things and stuffs. Something tells me to just stop and let go of it. Years passed and commitments came, it has stirred up emotions and tear dreams apart. Everything's going for him, and yes, everything's about him. I got a lot of things to tell him, but i have to let go. Things can't be on my way for it's not about me and my strength can never determine whatever changes are needed to be done. As years go farther and as we all grow older, i realized that he was never ready. He... (more)</description>

                 Rather       cleverly done.        This       is in two parts,       the       prayer (in       blue type)       and
GOD       (in       red type)       in       response.                   **********            Our       Father Who Art In Heaven.
Yes?
Don't       interrupt me. I'm praying.
But       -- you called ME!
Called       you?
No, I didn't call you.
I'm praying.
Our Father who art in       Heaven.
There       -- you did it again!
Did       what?
Called       ME.
You said,
&quot;Our Father who art in Heaven&quot;
Well, here I       am.
What's       on your mind?
But       I... (more)</description>

      <description>            Whew! It's been so long since i last create an entry here. I missed writing about things and changes. I've been so busy in our church doing cell group, in school - now that i'm close to finishing it and of course, life..as it is. I now have my practicum and it's really nice to know that i'm gonna be done in school some later time. I've grown so much as i walk with God and have outgrown things that needs to be removed. I love the way God disciplines me, the way he breaks things in order for me to experience His best. Ah, i never wanted to be anywhere but with God. I just don't get... (more)</description>

      <title>Father's House</title>
      <link>http://ivycristobal.blogdrive.com/archive/34.html</link>

      <description>            I've seen the video of Father's House by Pigs with Pearls a while ago in church. It defines it's meaning on the spot though it's quite deep in terms of understanding. The message has touched me as i go realizing that God never demands anything. It signifies the very truth that His love for us is unconditional. We don't have to do this and do that just to be close to Him, just to feel His presence or go about crying out without getting heard. God hears us. He's there and He's more than willing to listen. He invites us to His family without any requirement but just the willingness... (more)</description>

      <title>Did God create evil?</title>

      <description>At a certain college, there was a professor with a

reputation for being tough on Christians. At the

first class every semester, he asked if anyone was a

Christian and proceeded to degrade and mock their

statement of faith.

 

  

 

One semester, he asked the question and a young man

raised his hand when asked if anyone was a

Christian. The professor asked, &quot;Did God made

everything, young man?&quot;

 

  

 

&quot;Yes he did, sir,&quot; the young man replied. The

professor responded, &quot;If God made everything, then

God made evil, and if we can only create from within

ourselves,... (more)</description>

      <title>Find somewhere you can dream</title>

      <description>            I've been in Iris' house, my new small group leader, yesterday for leadership group. Our topic was based on the book titled 'Your Best Life Now'. We discussed two chapters of it. As we begin, we voiced out what really strucked each of us from that certain two chapters. And what really strucked me and made me cry was the latter part of chapter two which tells the reader to 'find somewhere you can dream'. From before, i deprived myself of dreaming. My dreams came to an end with the narrow thinking that what i desire is ultimately impossible. My hopes, my desires, my longings, my... (more)</description>
