Having A Personal Reflection Is Great and Fun

Dear Daddy,

I’m so thankful for this great and wonderful day.

I have learned so much just by spending time with my wife and starting a new business. I believe I’m more focus now. I somehow seem to know and understand what I am supposed to do.

It’s relieves me to personally know that I am on the right track. Certainly, having a daily personal reflection is very helpful in pursuing my dreams.

I again reminded of a lesson that I always keep forgetting – that life is full of blessings, you’ll just need to look harder.

Today, I spend another loving-filled day with my wife and served my family through the little choirs that I do in our home. I thank you Daddy for allowing me see this through my deep personal reflections. Even little things like washing the dishes can make any man happy as long as he does it heartily, and I was able to discover that through your grace almighty Father.

I also had fun starting to a new business. I stumbled on diamond a while ago through a mistake that I will not forget. It only proves that nothing teaches us better but experience, especially painful ones. Instead of regretting, I now appreciate the diamond lessons that my mistakes bring. Thank you also for that Daddy.

Thank you also Father for finally giving me the courage to spend time adding, Google Adsense on my personal website. Finally, I was able to get over the fact that it will not make my website look good, but what’s important is that it will help me in my income.

I am very happy that I am able to do my personal reflections; it does not only allow me to look at the lessons in my life, but most especially the highlights in my daily life.

I ask for your blessings Dad. May you continue pouring financial blessings on me, so that I can be more generous to myself, my family, my friends, and our Christian community.

All of this I ask through the mighty name of your son, Jesus.

Amen.

I am Still Lost But I Hold On to God's Promise

Dear Daddy,

I am now lost again. I keep committing the same old sins that I used to do.

Although I’m still trying to be good but when I’m alone, it seems impossible to do. As I reflect, I try my best to understand that root causes of my addictions.

I know one of the causes is because I had a difficult childhood, but when I look at deep inside my heart I know I have already forgiven my father. So what is now that’s fueling my addiction?

Is it loneliness? Am I angry inside? Am I afraid of something? Do I feel unworthy to be loved?

The list of questions could go on and on, but still I am not able to pinpoint the source of my addictions.

Though I know one thing that is for sure, and that’s God’s love for me. It may seem weird but after all of the sins I have done, I still comeback to you Dad. Though I would to think that I am sorry, but I guess that’s not always the case. Sometimes it could be the feeling of guilt, and sometimes it’s my conscience that bothers me, that’s most of the reasons that I really come back to you.

For a human like me, I guess that won’t be enough if ever someone has sinned against me, but for you Lord, it seems to be enough.

I really don’t know why, but I think you’re okay with it. Now that’s real LOVE. Love that is unconditional and unfailing.

I just pray Dad, that someday I will be fully worthy of that love. For now, I continue to be a humble servant that as your forgiveness. Have mercy on me Father for I am a sinner.

I ask your forgiveness Lord, through the mighty name of my brother Jesus.

Amen.

Lord Teach me to Trust You More!

Dear Daddy,

I thank you for another great day in my personal reflection. The Cebu Feast last night was again, another night of “spirit-recharging”. I was really able to appreciate the real purpose and reasons why I should not lose hope.

I was really struck with last night’s story, about a guy named Nick Vujicic. If I am complaining with my life now, I think the pain that he suffered before acknowledging you as his Father was far greater.

The message was so powerful that my tears started flowing from my eyes. With what you have given him Lord, you ask the question – DO YOU TRUST ME?

Do you trust me enough that whatever handicaps you have?
Do you trust me enough with what ever struggles you are facing right now?
Do you trust me enough with the financial difficulty you are facing now?
Do you trust me enough that whatever difficult relationship you have right?

DO YOU TRUST ME?

My answer is a very strong yes, yet I still often overlook this fact whenever difficulties come way. I start to doubt most especially in times of financial difficulties. I begin to question and which leads to attraction of more problems, rather than blessings and solutions.

I again ask for your grace Lord, that I may become more like Jesus everyday, that I may trust you in every moment in life. In every step I take daily, let me focus on your promise rather than the challenges in life.

As reflect on my goals and dreams daily, give me courage to shout to the world that it will come true, for I have an amazing and great God that first and foremost my Father; a Father who loves me more than anything on this earth.

All of this I ask in Jesus name.

Amen.

An Inspiring Song - Still by Hillsong United with Lyrics

Dear Daddy,

Thank you for always reminding me of your love, through my daily personal reflection. Just by listening to one song, all of my burdens are now lighter.

Please all to me share the lyrics of the song, Still by Hillsong United, in their album entitled HOPE.

Stanza I
Hide my now, under your wings. 
Cover me, within your mighty hand. 


Chorus
When the oceans rise and thunders roar, I will soar with you above the storm. 
Father you are king over the flood, I will still know you are God. 


Stanza II
Find rest in my soul, in Christ the Lord.
Know his power, in quietness and trust. 


Chorus
When the oceans rise and thunders roar, I will soar with you above the storm. 
Father you are king over the flood, I will still know you are God. 

Yes, Lord. I will be still know you are my God.

With all the difficulties that I am facing right now in my; addictions, financial struggles, lack of focus, lack of prayer time, fear of loosing, and all my negative feelings I raise them to you Lord, and in the name of Jesus I claim victory all over them.

I know Lord God that with all of my needs you will provide for me abundantly. That in your Love Lord, I will truly find peace. Lord, let this be the day that I learn to focus on one thing, and that is your love for me as a Father.

Let me be strong Father, amidst the struggles I have right now. Remind me that I am your son, and that I am Jesus in my own very special way. In which, I have the enormous capacity to create abundance in all the areas of my life.

Most especially Father, grant me the strength to trust in your future provisions, that in my efforts today, all my needs will be available to me.

All these, I ask through mighty name of your son, Jesus.

Amen.

Thank You For The Opportunity Of Appreciating Life

Dear Daddy,

I thank you Dad for giving me the opportunity to do my personal reflection, almost everyday.

I thank you for the protection Dad that you always provide for me, Mamai, and my entire family. Thank you for the free dinner Lord, care of Janmck. Thank you for Life itself Lord, that everyday I am able to wake up and spend more time with my wife. Thank you for giving us the financial capacity that I am able to bring Mamai for her monthly checkup with her OB. Thank you for the food and the fresh coffee that I drink at Bo’s Coffee Shop . Thank you for the gift that my friend Germaine gave to me.

And most of all Lord, allow me to appreciate the financial blessings that you gave me. Though, as of the moment Lord I am not really earning that much, but little by little Lord you are really showing me that there is a gold mine of opportunities on the online world.

Thank you, as well Lord, for the many opportunities that cross my path everyday. I have a very potential business that I can build with IMG. If ever I have friends who need real estate properties in Cebu, I can endorse them to a friend and could earn a possible commission. I have financial investments in mutual funds and the Philippine stock market that I can tap to, just in case I fully deplete my savings.

Lord, allow me to see blessings always, so that I may attract blessings in my life as well.

Again, it will be focus that will make me win or lose in the entrepreneurial world, and most especially in life. Remind me through your grace Lord, that as I do my personal reflection, I may see my dreams, and act on them daily.

All of this I ask in the mighty name of your son, Jesus.

Amen.

It's Been Quite A While Since I had My Personal Reflection

Dear Daddy,

It's been quite a while. I’ve been doing more useless stuff lately. Instead of focusing on life and making it more beautiful, I've been committing a lot of mistakes that move me away from you.

Just like how Brother Bo describes it, your punishment is not hardship, sickness, poverty, or anything bad, it is being far from you, that is already a great punishment. And it is only Sin that can move me far away from you.

Once, I commit it, it then creeps within me like a virus. In fact it’s so bad, that I think it sometimes affects my health. Through this I am able to personally prove that Bro. Bo’s theory about most people’s sickness is caused by emotional and spiritual bondage. Guilt, hidden anger, hate, hurt, and self pity are the real life killers than any other viral disease out there.

Good thing Lord is I have this daily personal reflection. I don’t think that I’d be able to really realize this if I don’t do personal reflections. It is only with this kind of practice that I am able to evaluate my day.

For all of my Sins Dad, I again, ask for forgiveness. Thank you for great and amazing love Lord. I ask of your grace that I be able to focus on your love in all the days of my life.

These, I all pray, in the name of my mighty and loving Brother Jesus.

Amen.
