The Joy of Saying Yes

1 month and 2 weeks of not posting a blog. Yikes! I fell out of my routine again, but as I read earlier in Proverbs 24:16 “Even if good people fall seven times, they will get back up.” This blog is an attempt to get back up and start creating again. I meant to write […]

In The Middle of Two Big Things

When we look back on our lives, it’s usually the big moments we remember most. The highs that made us feel alive, or the lows that broke us. It’s completely natural to think that way. In the Bible, we also got a glimpse of these big moments in the characters’ lives. We saw Joseph’s rollercoaster […]

Messy Thoughts

This blog is a form of procrastinating. Instead of writing my outline for tomorrow’s speaking engagement, here I am writing a personal blog. The featured image (Korean food) has nothing to do with everything I will write in this blog, except that they’re both an attempt to grasp something I can’t/am yet to hold. Baby […]

Cru AIA Annual Planning

Finally, an involvement to missions again! Im very blessed to be invited and take part in this ministry for year 2025-2026. I started to volunteer in Sports Ministry back in Feb 2024. I don’t have any professional experience in sports but oh how God moves. You would think that this Sports ministry is small but […]

Sanji and Soba

Where I am, there my cats will cling to me. It would be best to just write about anything until I think of a plan for my blog. Meet my two cats, Sanji and Soba. They have opposite personalities. Soba acts like a princess – she’s calm, sweet, shy, and liked by everyone. The other […]

About Tomorrow

Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring. Proverbs 27:1 This was the word I meditated on yesterday during my quiet time. We should really be careful in (vainly) planning for tomorrow. A good example would be, I thought and planned to finish at least 2 long videos […]

Here on Earth

Why are days flying so fast? I can’t believe it’s been over a month since I posted my last podcast episode. My train of thoughts looks like this “I missed yesterday’s episode.” “Oh no, I can’t do it today.” “Maybe tomorrow” “Promise, tomorrow I’ll record.” “My listeners would understand” “I have to prepare to go […]

Time in Karuizawa

Note: Long blog 🙂 “For the moment, just let me know your willingness”, Janet wrote in her email as she asks for volunteers to clean OMF’s guest house in Karuizawa. We are located in Chiba, that is about 2-3 hours drive to Karuizawa. I was more than willing! To help and to go. So and […]

A New Beginning

Blog slightly taken from my personal quiet time. 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.  27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to […]

First Day at Home

I had a vivid dream after a long time. It was about something simple and funny — I went to an event in Japan without a proper attire. When I woke up, I realized I was back home in Manila. My mom’s house, in my sister’s room, my niece waking up at the same time, […]
