Anawangin Cove adventure was cancelled


It's really a perfect time to unwind, have vacation, breathe new air and do something not regular. It was the plan since its holiday on Monday, August 31. A wonderful opportunity for a restful looong weekend.

Weeks ahead my friends and I planned to go to Anawangin Cove in Zambales this afternoon till tomorrow. All was set. Itenerary was printed, I called the bangkero and inquired for place to stay. The night before, i prayed to God. "Lord, if its your will for us to go, please make it obvious." This morning, I received a text. My friend got sick and she couldnt come. This means we will just be 3 and in effect bigger expenses because it will just be divided to 3 instead of 4.
After asking people involved, we decided to cancel.

One thing I realized, God is sovereign. I am sad really that we didnt spend the weekend for beach holiday, but maybe there is a better thing to do like household chores, cook for family, meditate on the Word of God, pray, learn piano, grocery and memorize sign language. I thank the Lord for answering my prayer. Yes, it was obvious that its not time to go there.

Perhaps next time, God willing.

Sumabay sa agos, kung ano yung hinihingi ng sitwasyon, dapat yun ka. Mahirap yun a, pero gagawin mo kasi yun ang dapat. Saka mo na lang isisigaw sa hangin o iiyak kay Lord yung nasa loob mo. Minsan busy ka, hindi mo na naiyak kaya iischedule mo na lang. Partida busy ka na pero alam mo masakit. Naiisip mo na masakit pagsakay mo ng elevator, MRT, bus, fx o kapag tahimik na. I-sshare mo sa ilan mong kakilala kasi hindi mo kayang itago na sa'yo lang. Sasabihin nila sa iyo, kamusta ka? Anong reaksyon mo? Iniyak mo na ba? Okay lang yan. You'll feel better but not completely. Matutulog ka na dapat tapos magbabalik sa isip mo yung moment na sinabi ng close friend mo na m...

Don't miss it

Whenever I travel by plane, I would often miss looking at the beautiful cottony clouds by the window. This morning I read of a different cloud I should never miss watching. I just finished reading the book of Exodus and this last chapter helped me understand and believe more of God's faithfulness to His people as I think of uncertainties in 2012. The last verses of Exodus 40 are like sweet reminders to me. I can't help but praise God because His ways are sure and I just have to trust in Him. 34  Then  the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and  the glory of the  Lord  filled the tabernacle.   35  And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud settled on it, and the glory of the Lord  filled the tabernacle.   36  Throughout all their journeys,  whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would set out.   37  But  if the cloud was not taken up, then they did...
