Maria Venus Raj and her "major major" thingy.

As I opened my faceboook last Wednesday, I saw lots of status with "major major" phrase within. I was like, "HAHAHA. Ako din nga!" But truly, I love Maria Venus Raj!

I know there were few that don't like her. But surely, 99 percent of all the people love her like I do. She's pretty inside out, I insist. Though I don't know her that much and just recently saw her on television, I do believe she's a good person with great ideas in mind. Actually, I googled her. LOL. And I found out that she lived in a nipa hut made of wood, bamboo and anahaw leaves with no electricity in the middle of a sprawling rice field in the rural Bato town for more than twenty years. That made me "whoaw" and yes, I applaud her for that thing.

On this day, I just simply stayed in my home and watched TV. I heard her on news, she guested a talk show, I saw her on commercials, I heard her voice, I saw her face and everything about her "major major" issue. I was like, "Edi ikaw na bidang-bida Miss Universe 4th Runner Up." I was about to be pissed off because of her but then, as I watched her being interviewed live, the level of hating her dropped down 6 feet underground.

She deserves to receive a standing ovation.

I am a Christian

I just saw this "about me" post from one of the friends of my friend in facebook:

I am a Christian

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say ..."I am a Christian,"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble,
And need CHRIST to be my guide.

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak,
And need HIS strength to carry on.

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed,
And need God to clean my mess.

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not claiming to be perfect.
My flaws are far too visible,
But God believes I am worth it.

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches,
So I call upon His name.

When I say ... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not holier than thou.
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace somehow.

I agree on every word that was spoken. Most of the people think that we, Christians, were so holy that we commit no sin. I just want you to know that we are still in a process and are not perfect as Christ.

God is 11:59

Me: Whoa. It's already three in the afternoon.

Man: No! It's not yet 3 o'clock. I palpitated!

Me: Why?

Man: I need to pass these papers later and I'm not yet done! There's no way to finish this. I'm stressed! :(

Me: Relax. Stop for a while and pray. Claim that you will be able to pass those stuff on time. God is 11:59

Man: Thanks! :)

After two hours. . .

Man: I made it! Thank God! :)

An 11:59 experience is when you have come to the end of yourself and all your natural abilities. It’s a time when nothing and no one can help you. The circumstance can make you feel helpless, hopeless or even desperate. The situation may be physical, financial or even emotional. You are in a dilemma. The only solution is a “miracle” which you can’t perform nor anyone else, except God.

God can never be delayed, but He may come in the last minute.
God is always on time! :)
