Trust, Hide, Rest, and the Brook of Cherith
There were a lot of unusual things that happened today. Like, actually resting on a Sunday, staying home, trading our Sunday best to pairs of pajamas, not working. I cooked lunch, D gave the girls a bath, we changed their diapers, fed them, sang them songs, watched Big Hiro 6, ...
We Call Them “Passion Cards” // Buy Now!

Pray, He Listens
It's easy to forget to pray, but time and time again I realize how brilliant praying to God is. Seriously. Praying is not just spiritual, it's also in a way, practical. I can't anymore recall the number of times I have so much to do and I would feel paralyzed and helpless and ...

Hear Ye, Pursuit Community is Here in Manila!
I've been holding off on blogging about this news for weeks now, but here goes. You see, when I said I had affirmations that I chose the right One Word for 2015 (pursue), this is one of those major affirmations I was talking about. First, let me tell you about the Pursuit ...
My One Word for 2015: Pursue
I knew what my word was going to be few days before 2014 ended, and the first few days of 2015 brought me major affirmations that this, indeed, is THE word. But first, let's talk about passion. Last year I faced my fears and chose a word that kept me on my toes the whole year: ...
