Do to others as you would have them do to you. [Luke 6:31]
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. [Proverbs 3:5]
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. [Hebrews 11:1]

Sadness...

  • I was going to blog about magazines this week but since a sad event happened yesterday in one of the malls here in the country, I thought, I'd do that post in the next couple of days.
  • Prayers check for all those people who were hurt or knew someone who got hurt from the explosion.
  • There are a lot of theories popping up here and there. Government diversion from another issue? Terrorists attack? Gas leak? [though, I think that's been ruled out].
  • I still pray that whoever were behind the explosion that they be haunted by their conscience for life. Karma. Do good things and good things will happen to you. Do bad things and it will surely bite you back where it hurts the most.
  • SIGH. We have to keep our faiths. Yes, it's scary but we just have to trust God ALWAYS.
  • Nadine and I were supposed to go malling later today but I told her last night we'll have to postpone it for now. She agreed. She did asked for 20 pesos though. I asked her what for, she said she's saving up for a cellphone [the phone that was passed on to her died on her, it was an old phone] worth 1600 pesos. Hee. I'm tempted to give her that for Christmas. Will see. Maybe, I could ask my sisters to share for that gift no? Nadine is only 8, man, when we were 8, we didn't have any gadgets to play with, well, we had ATARI though.
  • Anyhoo, thought I'd post my thoughts on that. For what it's worth.
  • Prayers for the friends and families of those who died from the explosion. I pray they keep their faiths and not dislike God because of this.
  • Going to a mall shouldn't be a scary thing. We go to malls to have a few hours of fun, away from our reality. SIGH. Prayers check for everybody.
  • From today's Dailybread:
    Life can seem unbearable at times. Physical pain, difficult decisions, financial hardships, the death of a loved one, or shattered dreams threaten to engulf us. We become fearful and perplexed. Plagued by doubts, we may even find it difficult to pray.

    "...You must put your soul in one position and keep it there. You must stay upon the Lord; and come what may --- winds, waves, cross seas, thunder, lightning, frowning rocks, roaring breakers --- no matter what, you must hold fast your confidence in God's faithfulness and His everlasting love in Christ Jesus."
  • Better days ahead for all of us. God Bless.

    me too. i posted an entry a few hours after the explosion but i thought it would be better to just take it down coz it wasnt (and still isn't) even sure yet if it was a bomb or a structural flaw. so sad it had to happen. kawawa talaga the filipino image. laging bad news ang big news.
