Awesome

God's grace has been so real to me especially this year, when I (finally) began to understand the meaning of God's grace. Many times I have heard these words 'grace', 'grace of God', 'God's grace', and though I knew what they meant, I never fully understood it. However, through the events and activities of this year, I've begun to be able to get a taste of what God's grace means.

birthday girl!


celebration at Rack's


Every breath I take, everything I do and am able to do, is only because of God's grace. Sending His very own son to die on the cross for me, making a way through my troubles even though there seems to be no way, giving me strength for each day, being my shield. I can only stand in awe of God's grace, and even till today, His grace still amazes me. It is for Him only that I live, and it is my desire to follow Him all the days of my life. Truly, it is in Christ alone that I can find my glory.



Going out of the house, eating in a restaurant, attending family occasions, going out with my family, these are things I wasn't able to do for a long time and being able to do them again really shows me how the Lord works His way in my life.

When you haven't gone out for two years
you'd eat like this too!!

The past days have been truly amazing, going out with my wife and kids for 4 days straight, getting almost 6 months colostomy supplies for free, my daughter was given a "scholarship". I am just truly in awe of how the Lord works, and again, for those the Lord used for all these...THANK YOU!!!

1ST BIRTHDAY!!!

My youngest daughter celebrated her first birthday on April 3, and we had her celebration and dedication yesterday.

It was a celebration that "was not suppose to happen". We were on a limited budget, ...check that... we had NO budget.., but the Lord as always, provided for everything and gave us "sponsor/s".

After the celebration, we were still pondering how these.....
