Proverbs 29:23 (NIV)
A man's pride brings him low, but a man of lowly spirit gains honor.
A man's pride brings him low, but a man of lowly spirit gains honor.
I was once an active church member during my childhood as an El Shaddai Ministry Choir. I have never failed attending Sunday masses. I do pray a lot then.
Year 2007 when I entered the congregation of Singles for Christ (SfC), wherein I found friends considered brothers and sisters who do a lot of worshiping activities. I have learned then how to read the bible and became proud of speaking more about Jesus. I found a certain kind of happiness and fulfillment during those times. I found peace and contentment, a joyful and blissful life. I thought I have got more strength from above as I really got closer to Him. But during the same year I have been greatly challenged and in that test I failed. Thinking I was strong, I appeared weak that I was not able to fight the worlds’ temptation.
I am indeed a sinner. I might have already repented on the mistakes I have committed but there’s really nothing I should brag about my Spiritual life. I must admit I am not absolutely observant of His Commandments. Nevertheless, I am wholly assertive that I do believe in Jesus Christ and in the Holy Trinity. However, I know I still have to do a lot good to make it up to Him.
I am fully aware that I am not perfect, but I am really trying to be a good mother to my child and little by little as he grows I am teaching him Jesus’ existence as well as the value of prayer. I am just so glad that Macoi already learned how to pray and he calls it “Amen”. Before he gets to sleep, he comes up to me and say "Momi Amen, Momi Amen" which I already knew that he is inviting me to pray.
And this will be my official entry for this week's GT.

Hi sis, saw your msg at Karina's GT Cbox. Parehas tayo, tapos ko na rin GT entry ko. That's good that you attend Sunday masses. Just pray always to God and make your soul draw more closer to Him everyday. Char! hehehe, I know, it's not easy but we all have to continue seeking God in order to find God.

I think every body has its own mistakes naman Sis... God is Good for He can forgive us from all our sins....
Nakakatuwa talaga si macoi dearie mo Sis.. at least He knows how to pray and express it the way He knew it.
Happy Girls Talk
we are just but humans and not spared from committing mistakes. what important is you have repented and you're trying your very best to make it up to HIM.

God bless you, Sis!
I don't know what to say..hehehe I not really a prayerful person ... hehehe mine is up at Woman’s elan vital
Everybody got mistakes talaga.. yon lang kung paano mo tanggapin. at kung nakapag repent na parang ang gaan ng feelings.
I am in the SFC, too! :) Then again, this year was a crossroad for me, and I really need to find my way back.
My GT post this week is up HERE.
i did not grow up in a religious family, kaya din siguro ganun ang pananaw ko tungkol sa religion. pero me and Paulie made it a point to teach Svet how to pray, same as you did Macoi, and are trying to introduce the concept of Jesus, right and wrong. i know we will never be the church-going type of family, but we don't really care what other "religious" people say. being a good parent, like you say, is i think a good step towards a healthier spirituality.
God is Good All the Time

We don't pray before we eat, and we don't exercise praying before we go to bed. I do pray when I am alone. I thank God for all the blessings that he's been giving me since day one of my life until this day. Am I religious? No I am not, but I believe in God and I do the best I can to follow and not go against his 10 Commandments. Do I sin? yes I do, for I am not perfect, Will I be save? I don't know, only God knows. Trials come and go and it's up to us to withstand it. I know that he won't give me what I can't bear. I love the way you wrote your entry. We just need to be the best we can and it's between us and Him, di ba??
