“God is not a belief to which you give your assent. God becomes a reality whom you know intimately, meet everyday, one whose strength becomes your strength, whose love, your love. Live this life of the presence of God long enough and when someone asks you, “Do you believe there is a God?” you may find yourself answering, “No, I do not believe there is a God. I know there is a God.”

Last Saturday, we went to Divisoria to look for a cloth for my dress. Sobrang saya ko kasi nakita ko yung tela na gusto ko talaga at yung nasa imagination ko. Aside from that yung tatahi ng damit ko ay Christian, dahil pareho kami ng God, binigyan niya ako ng MALAKING dicount. Ang total price ng dress ko ay P1,500 kasama na ang tahi. Haaay salamat talaga at buhay ang Diyos ko. Di lang diyan nagtatapos ang patuloy na pagpapasaya sa akin ng God.This week we were pressured to get the apartment na nagustuhan namin last month kasi
dalawa na lang daw na apartment ang available nakuha na yung lima. Actually lahat naman yun eh bagong gawang apartments, pero dahil bago madami ang gustong mag rent. As of last week wala pa kaming perang pang down ng one moth advance at one month deposit. Puwede kaming mangutang just to reserve the place pero di kasama sa prayers namin na mangutang at medyo lugi kami kasi pagkinuha na namin yung apartment this November ibig sabihin we will pay again on December. Doble ang gastos. Because we have a real God, may favor na naman kami. Last monday (lunch break) the landlord told us that we can reserve the place and as a wedding gift from him di namin kailangan magbayad ng rent for November. By the way Christian din yung may ari ng apartment. Paglumipat kami, don palang mag take effect ang rent namin pero we need to pay him 1 month advance as a reservation that day. Ano?! ngayong araw na? eh wala kaming naka budget for that amount of money as of that time. So we went back to work (1:00 pm)and pray na makakabayad kami that same day.Around 3:00 pm somebody gave me an envelope, advance wedding gift, sabi niya baka kailangan na namin ni Carlo, and guess what kung magkano yung laman ng envelope? EXACT amount that we needed to reserve the apartment. Grabe ang God wala akong masabi sa pag encourage sa akin na mag asawa na. Do I believe in God? I think every single cell in my body is shouting... "I KNOW THERE IS A GOD!!!"
this is such a great testimony on how God will really provide when you are going forward according to His will! Now I'm REALLY happy you're marrying Carlo, Ate Shelbs, and it's so awesome that in every step of the way, God is confirming that he's the one for you. God's not just doing this for you two, but also to for us, the ones who care about you guys, that this is His will, so we shouldn't be worried. hehehe
ReplyDeleteiba talaga pag will ni Lord at hindi pilit, no? my sister has been having the same experiences in terms of God's provisions and blessings for her own wedding. so i'm at peace for both of you.
love ya ate shelbs! i'm excited na! hehe
thanks stef, actually matagal ko nang prayer sa God na pagkinasal ako maging hope siya sa mga friends ko who are waiting for God's perfect choice na partner in life, kasi gusto kong sirain ang tinuturo ng mundo pagdating sa paghahanap ng love. Di kailangan minamadali lahat. There will be someone, God will provide somebody who will be complimenting you. He knows who will be best for you kasi Siya ang may gawa.
