Celebrating 38

Clock is really ticking... Last week, in the Heavenly Melody Concert in UECMalabon, I was able to be seated from start to the end since I was just accompanying the group for their concert with our daughter church.

In his message, he said Birthdays are not necessarily happy.  It is like God has given us coins in our pocket and each year spend is one coin lost.  It means life gets shorter.  But the problem is you do not know how many coins are in your pocket.  Very very true.

As I celebrate my birthday at 38.  I was able to reflect my contributions and my damages to the world in this 38 years of existence.  I spend some time walking around our main sanctuary that day praying and God has indeed used me in many ways and I praise Him about it.  Still a normal busy day for me since I am the Program Director of two-month long 80th Anniversary Celebration, we just finished 20% of our scheduled activities.

Of course, I took off early and went to have dinner with my godchildren.  This has been our second year, where my godchildren, Marisa, Bryan, Sally and Dominic would treat me for dinner.  By the way, Dominic was absent last year, so this is his first year to join the group.  I might miss this since Bryan is already leaving for Singapore.

I enjoyed much having such dinner with I really felt my children hehehe since I do not have one and hope to have one in the very very very near future.  Oh God, please... hehehe. We ate at UCC since some of them has not eaten there.

Seeing them discuss life and encourage one another like how they talk to Dominic seems to really make us a family as older siblings encourage the younger ones.

 Marisa got to bring me home that night is her big big car.  Praise the Lord for He allows me to continually see how He bless me and be blessed through people like my godchildren.
