the worshipper in me

many times before, when i was very active in church, i would not consider myself a good "listener' of the word. my soul would not be filled with just words from the bible but worshiping and singing songs for the lord, would make my soul full. 

i may have different view of a structured church now, i know deep in my heart, i am a worshiper. i would rather hear songs of praise and my heart and soul is full.

i am a worshiper more than anything else and that is my way of maintaining this personal relationship with God. others may think that i am on a lie-low with going to church but i don't think i am. the relationship that my God and I have is still the same. the greatness he has done with my life has always been the same regardless of my circumstance. and the worshiper in me never faded, ever.

i am a worshiper that my heart is filled with god's love today as i listen to praise and worship songs. a moment that only me and my God personally share.

life is simple

Life is simple. My husband and I often realize it on our 

quiet at home talks. Then why are we making it complicated? 

Only one word came to my mind - VALIDATION. I am speaking for 

myself here. No offense meant.

Oftentimes, our need for validation from other people maes us want 

for more than what we truly need and want. 

Yes, we all have different needs and wants. We each have our 

goals in life but sometimes we forget what are these goals 

for? Why do i want so many of "these and those" when all i 

ever wanted is a simple and happy life.Then, what are root 

causes of such discontenment.

social media - yes! there was a time that i wanted to boast 

and post.  #blessed was a big facade. it was more of boast 

and post for validity. hence, the flooding of pictures to 

show to the world that "we are happy" "we are living a grand 

life" "our marriage is perfect' and all other reasons i can 

think of.

realizing it now, i opt for a more silent, simple yet 

meaningful walks, talks and bonding with people who are 

important to me. no more flooding pictures to post. just one 

or two if necessary just to share a sneek peak of what's 

going on with our lives - more contentment for me.
