Day 13: Pain with Jesus, nothing compares!

Day 13: Tuesday, April 3

I'd say I was completely fine. It was like common tonsillitis. As Dr. Kirt guaranteed, this will be my last tonsillitis.

I went to the Borough clinic for my follow up check-up. Dr. Kirt said all were good. Oh yeah, if you only knew Kirt for the past week haha! I was delighted to see him. I felt safe in his hands. God unquestionably picked this specialist for me.

He asked me to come back in a month. As a submissive patient, I will.

Guys, don't be scared. My experience may be different from yours. I have heard a lot of stories that didn't have to go through so much pain. Just follow the medication as prescribed by your pharmacist. I did not. I chose not to take a pain reliever during my first few days. I was wrong. I should have known that my doctor knows better. So if after 1st, 2nd or 3rd opinion you were told that tonsillectomy is a must, then it's a must. Don't be too dubious. Nevertheless, pray to God. He will grant you with discernment whether an operation is required or just a bit of a miracle. In my case, this operation led me closer to my Jesus, and that is my favorite part of this tonsillectomy journey. Pain is not okay, but pain with my Jesus, I find it so delightful. Nothing compares.

The end...

Birthday Gift for Beging

Do you guys remember Beging? She’s my sister. She is currently studying in ICCT College. I and Beging are best of friends. We share problems, secrets and we were partners in crime (that was before we became Christians; now we go to church together regularly). I love the fact that she listens to me and she listens to God’s word every Sunday. Most of the things that I was telling my sister are indeed hard to accept, but she tries her very best. “Hupotasso” is one of the hardest lessons for her, I guess, because it’s very hard for me too --- yet we’re both trying our best. Moving on, before Christmas, I kept praying for God to give me the ability to buy Beging a router. She needs it for her study. In fact, that prayer is written in my prayer notebook multiple times. Jesus really is a faithful God and He will never leave me hanging with no answer. I was not worried when I pray for something lately. I cling to God'...

SIN is...

I like this, "command was an opportunity to trust God, obey God." We can't tell someone is obedient if there is no command to obey. How does this connect with "the Fall". Eve's decision to listen to the serpent and Adam's willful act of conniving with his wife separated the whole humanity to God. And separation from God is "death". The Fall clearly defines 'sin' as great chasm between God and humanity. At present times, sin is classified as to either small or big, either deadly or not. Sin is sin no matter what. Even simple idleness is sin. I wonder what Eve and Adam were doing and how come the serpent had his chance of speaking to them. They should be busy caring for the garden. However, I have no means of proving myself right that indeed they were idle that's why Satan had his foothold. But I strongly believe that we should make our time worthy of God's trust with the tasks He appointed us. That way, satan won't h...

Morning Light's 1st Ever CHRISTmas Party

Morning Light 1 st Ever CHRISTmas Party Date: December 20, 2013 ( 09:15 AM ) This is going to be our first CHRISTmas party ever, and I’m soooo excited. I remember TL Pep told me, “Whenever it's possible, always spell out Christmas completely, because it's all about Christ!” Last week’s message was regarding celebrating Christmas the way it should be celebrated, and the reason why we really have CHRISTmas is because our savior was born --- so why should we remove CHRIST from it? Makes sense, I shared TL Pep’s advice to my friends. Pastor Manny led us. He requested us to bring food good for everyone. We, from Convergys and those residing in Manggahan Rd decided to bring Pancit, Lumpiang Shanghai and Siomai. Randy is our cook, as always. I and Randy thought of having exchange gift. Since it’s a very very late notice, we’re not expecting everyone to bring their gifts. It’s only worth 100PHP. We’re planning to have “agawan gift” --- TL Pep’s idea, lols. Convergys g...
