Wonder with me - JAMES Chapter 1 (Trials and Temptation, Listening and Doing)

B A C K S T O R Y  I actually started my bible devotional last October 18 - the day after my d-group leader had a one on one with me and taught me how to read the bible. It's also exactly 7 years since that miracle of Faith in 10.18.2013.  SO MUCH SEVENS!  Truly, it IS the number of completeness and perfection in the bible. And this is indeed the year where the seeds He planted in my heart 14 years ago, is finally ready to bloom and be harvested!!! Wait wait wait --- voyaging through s easons o f w onder (my purpose as the wonderhuman) : …

Wonder with Me?

This is my first attempt to blog about my quiet time and the 3rd time I'm walking with the Lord and finally taking it seriously. (more about my faith-story in another post)  I've been prompted about sharing boldly sooo many times to the point of crying and begging the Lord  HOW DO IT . Yes I have my journals, but hey it's been 15-20 years of actual dairy-writing with all feelings unfiltered! It was only in 2012 that I realized I could actually write letters (and pour my heart out) to God too. Yes, I've been blogging for more th…

Letters to Money Challenge by Paula Peralta #YouGotThis

21 Days of writing letters to Money. #dearMoneyChallenge by Happy Money Coach : Paula Peralta.  At first I thought it was absurd to write to some --- thing. But throughout the session it became clear to me that when our beliefs are expounded through words, that sense of "control" is magnified especially when we understand where the beliefs are coming from.  So here's my attempt to track my progress and align my beliefs, and aspirations with the universe! Day 1 letter is is as typed in the comments section when Paula told us to ty…

#YouGotThis Online Summit inspired me to write again

The last piece I wrote was about being tired because I just was. And attending this Planning and Journaling Online Summit was a huge breather for me to just pause, and reinvent myself again. Day 1 was very insightful but I was very distracted with everything I can't do, I haven't done, and I should do. After 3 different purchases of my would-be planner (and journal), I told myself I WILL WRITE AGAIN. I will blog again.  So here's a piece of me, doing so.  DAY 2 | 11AM TOPIC  "PIVOT FOR FUTURE SUCCESS - Reinvent yourself and to…

BLOG PROMPT #002 : LIGHT

-------------------------------- "in all things, we are more than conquerors  through him who loved us." Romans 8:37 Last year, I had to endure a tough season that took me a while to overcome. I had quite a number of relapses and manic episodes in the first few months after confinement and rare but high intensity breakdowns halfway through. Before covid-19 happened, I was pretty confident that I'm on to my season of spring. . . but almost 2 months into this lock down, I've been having outbursts and symptoms caused by t…

BLOG PROMPT #001 : HOME

WEEK ONE  Home is in one big room - where weekends were sacred VHS / VCD nights with our classic favorite Magoo's Pizza (gheez, how old are y..*coughs* am I?) that soon became stuffed crust pizza and dear darla's. That big room was where I spent the first 15 years of life  - learning, studying, playing, reading, and basically growing up...with mama, and my little sister. It was where we prayed the rosary everyday and chaplets on fridays, it was where we had the biggest arguments about extra curricular activities and me joining a …

BLOG TO INSPIRE with #BLOGPROMPTS

Back in 2013 I had a series of blog prompts that made me write these posts ( READ :   PEN & PAPER  ) You see, writer's block (blogger's....block?) is pretty common, even if you you've written at lot of journal entries or topic outlines or seemingly endless unpublished  blog posts!  Yes, it feels like we're stuck but it doesn't mean we should stop.  This is an attempt, to BUILD writing habits. This is an attempt, to TRIGGER that extra dose of wonder in us. This is an attempt, to FLOW freely without limits…

When She Speaks and When She Writes (TWH Events x Mamacademy PH)

Why do we enjoy music, podcasts or talks? Why do we read books, news, and blogs? Why are there food, travel and fashion sites and even review sections on face book pages and popular e-commerce sites? We are easy captives to words, because they influence our thoughts, therefore affecting our feelings and behavior towards making a decision - in moments big or small, in timelines daily or long term. We love words , especially words that connect to our hearts and align with our beliefs. But also hate it just the same, especially if it steals …
