Faith Like Potatoes

I just finished watching a very good movie - "FAITH LIKE POTATOES"

It's not the usual hollywood type of movie.

It's something new. And refreshing.

It's a movie I feel that God has created for us believers to

look deeper into ourselves and see where our faith have taken us

in this journey called LIFE.

Though some parts of the movie is a bit dragging, it really doesn't matter

and I don't care.

For it is still like being with God for a little while.

With visions of hopes and miracles.


Angus Buchan has expressed it so well ,

"“The condition for a miracle is difficulty, however the condition for a great miracle is not difficulty, but impossibility.” - Angus

Angus faith in God has melted my heart.

The miracle I felt in this movie has leveled up my Faith.

And yes, it's great to have faith like potatoes!

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not yet seen.


Read the full synopsis and the story of Angus Buchan here.

If you haven't watch it yet. I recommend you grab a copy now.

Revelation Song by Kari Jobe

Lonesome...

I woke up feeling a little bit lonely today.

I miss my mama back in the Philippines.

I miss my loved one.

I'm alone in my room.

Sometimes, it gets a little creepy and feelings of boredom, redundancy,

daily routines just suck the life inside of me.

I was trying to feel His presence to take refuge from it all.

And He led me to listen to this sermon from Pastor Joseph Prince.

Wana hear it out loud with me?

John 17:15

Your Only Battle For Today Is The Fight To Remain At Rest

This is one of my fave sermons from Pastor Joseph Prince.

I have always wanted that "REST".

The rest from what's happening in this mad,fallen world.

The rest from all my failings, stress at work, problems at home,
fears and hopes.

Rest from what my mind is trying to feed me...bad, desperate and sad thoughts.

Silly and naughty thoughts.

I tried different ways of getting away from it all like
going somewhere for a vacation, read good books, watch a movie,
listen to good relaxing music

But still...

"rest" seemed so unattainable.


Now, that I have Jesus...

everything is sooooo different.

Without much effort, I can feel that I am enjoying that "rest" in Him.

Amazing!

I cannot explain it, but it's happening.

Maybe that's what I get from listening too much on this sermon.

I have listened to this for like more than 10x already.

And everytime it got into me, fresh revelations always come along with it.

Start by listening now, and you'll see what I mean.

Be Anxious For Nothing

I'm living this way.

I have stopped thinking about too much on myself
and have given it all up to Him.

Everything!

My plans...

my future...

my fears...


my dreams.

It's all in His hands now.

I may have my own plans, but still...

He has the last words.

For the moment, I may not like it. But it's ok.

In the end, I'm sure I will be praising Him more

for all the coming miracles that He will be giving to me.

Thank you Jesus!

In this world, I may have nothing...

But with you, I HAVE EVERYTHING!!

Be Anxious For Nothing


Philippians 4:6–7
6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

When faced with a challenge or crisis, our tendency is to get all anxious about it. But God does not want us to react this way. He does not want us to be anxious about anything. Instead, whatever the problem is, He wants us to go to Him in prayer and supplication, telling Him what we need and thanking Him for the answer. When we do that, His peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds from all worries, anxieties and fears.

“Pastor Prince, it is easy for you to say, ‘Be anxious for nothing.’ Try living with my husband for one day. Try disciplining that wayward teenager of mine. Look at the balance in my bank account! How can I not be anxious?”

Hold it! I am not the one who said, “Be anxious for nothing.” The apostle Paul said it. Yet, it was not him — he was prompted by the Holy Spirit. And when Paul wrote that, he was a prisoner under house arrest in Rome. He had been sent to Rome because he had appealed to Caesar regarding his death sentence. The Jews in Jerusalem wanted him to be put to death. (Acts 28:16–20)

Yet, under those trying conditions, he wrote these words: “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.”

My friend, if you are anxious or worried about something, remember those words. Let’s say that you are anxious about a huge debt. Go to the Lord and pray, “Lord Jesus, I no longer want to be anxious about this problem. I hand it over to You and ask for supernatural cancellation of this debt. It is in Your care now. You are in charge. I thank You for taking care of it.”

God is true to His Word. As you pray this prayer and cast your care to Him, you will find His peace setting your heart and mind at rest. So be anxious for nothing — let the One with whom nothing is impossible take care of it for you!

Air France Flight 447

I feel saddened for what happened on the Air France Flight 447.
Now, they found an airplane seat, a fuel slick and pieces of white debris scattered over three miles of open ocean marked the site in the mid-Atlantic Tuesday where Air France Flight 447 plunged to its doom..

I am expressing my sincere condolences to all the victims and
to their families and loved ones..

I pray that the Lord will guide and comfort their hearts
at this lowest points in their lives.

Be with them , Lord and let them feel your love.
In the midst of their broken hearts and dreams,
..just touch them..and find them in your arms.


I pray this, in Jesus name!



...my heart breaks..:(



Just recently,

I posted a blog on how flying really scares me off big time.
See, what I mean?

Anything really could happen.

Death comes to strike you, anytime , anywhere.

and even when you're just alone in your room , sitting, eating
or even sleeping.

Whatever went wrong, no one knows.


I am just glad, I know how to rest on this area and whom to go
to for protection.


God is my protection and I believe in His words when He promise on

PSALM 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [a]

2 I will say [b] of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."

3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.

4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.

8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 If you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the LORD, who is my refuge-

10 then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;

12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."


I use this scriptures everytime I am scared of something.
Like the spread of H1N1 flu and just protection from any danger or harm.

I recommend you use it too. Write it somewhere so you could take it along
with you wherever you go.

I wrote it on my notepad on my cellphone.

and here on my laptop.

It keeps me safe because I believe.

God's Word is God's Power!!
