The series of the Tri-Unity reflection continues as I am privileged to testify how my faith strongly believes that Jesus is God, The Almighty God.

There has been a lot of misconceptions regarding the Lord Jesus Christ's persona. Some people say that He is just an Angel sent by God above to preach and heal the sick. Some thinks Jesus Christ is a Ghost that died and has a risen soul. Others believe that Jesus is a Prophet.

Before I have accepted that He is the reason of my salvation, I myself had a foolish misconception that Jesus as the Son of God - only seconds God Almighty (The Creator) concerning all the powers in the universe. There is a hierarchal boundary between God and Jesus' ability in terms of reigning the world and eternal life. This belief of mine about Jesus is totally wrong! It was true that my perspective about Jesus Christ before is extremely shameful! Only when I came to accept Jesus as my Redeemer, my Savior, The One Who died for my sins where truths were revealed to me. And it is very clear to me now that Jesus Christ is God our Creator, Our Savior, Our Almighty God.

Jesus Christ is God's Son in the sense that He is God created in human form (John 1:1,14). It is very important to know exactly who Jesus is in our way of life. When I say "know" that doesn't mean intellectual knowledge but intimacy with the Lord. As soon as I have claimed my Salvation to Jesus, my heart's attitude towards pursuing Him becomes a natural desire of my body, my mind and my heart.

The Bible tells us that Jesus is God. It clearly shows that Jesus Christ already existed from the very beginning. In the fall of man in Genesis, after the major turning point in the history of creation, Eve and Adam was tempted and sinned by Satan. God promises something that feared Satan - Genesis 3:15 "And I will put enmity between you (Satan) and the woman, and between your offspring and her, He (Jesus) will crush your head, and you will strike his heel (On the Cross, Satan bruised the heel of Christ causing His death. This is the first promise of a Redeemer. This is the beginning of a long line prophecy about the coming of Jesus Christ.

In John 8:24 "I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that "I AM HE", you will indeed die in your sins." Now as a saved person, I never once doubted Jesus Christ divinity. Ever since the beginning, Jesus Christ already existed. He created the world. He is our Maker, our Holy Potter. Jesus Christ is even existing in the Old Testament. He is the "I AM" in Exodus, "God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’ ”Exodus 3:14 | NIV Jesus Christ is also there even before Abraham was born. "Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” John 8:58 | NIV. "Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him" Psalms 34:8 | NIV" The Lord is very wonderful, as He always work in His own majestic ways.

My love for Jesus develops everyday when I spend my time daily on my quiet time and Bible reading. The Bible is my manual in life. Everything about the Bible is Jesus. Knowing Jesus humbles me. I have come to a realization that all my wrong understandings in the past resulted a wrong character. Loving Jesus Christ automates to having Him live in me. He translated the way I live now and it is truly amazing! I will forever have faith that Jesus the Son of God is God. I am saved and will always be saved by His grace.

I am praying that that everyone in the world will be saved. I can only imagine the sweetness and perfection living with Jesus in heaven someday.

My Tonsillectomy Journey

I don't know much about medical stuff, I took up BS ECE in college, and I am currently working as a supervisor in a BPO company. So pardon my innocence in this blog. I'm writing this for the sake of those who will and who are going through the healing process after a tonsillectomy. Hope this helps! I was scheduled to undergo tonsillectomy 10am of March 22nd. According to the doctors I consulted, having tonsillitis of more than twice a year isn’t normal - mine used to be more than twice a MONTH . Also, year after year of my APE in my workplace, I had been told that my tonsils were bigger than normal, which may be the reason why I was snoring and had difficulty in breathing most of the time. Of course, they talked to me in jargon. Don't worry, I would talk in a way easy for someone like me who isn’t good with medical terms understand it better. I had my flexible endoscopy on March 20, Tuesday. A friend, Lian, was with me. It was in Borough just ne...

Submitting to God's Plans

Remember this blog ? I can't help but write about what's next... I met a guy at work when I was in college. I was a working student. I loved him, and it was my heart's choice. Again, I let my heart rule. I was so into him, that I was even willing to leave my family for us. He smokes, he drinks, he didn't want to attend school, and worst thing is he cheated on me. From what I knew, it was only 3 times but it's no longer important. He broke up with me on our 3rd year anniversary. He chose to be with his girl, she was his officemate. My world crashed. For the very first time in my life, I went to a bar and cried over him. I couldn't remember what happened because I got myself so drunk that night. I was with my bestfriend. All I could remember was my brother picked me up, he brought me home and I was crying so hard that night. The next day, nanay brought me to the mall and bought me an mp3 player --- I wanted to have an mp3 player that time. I then realized...
