When it rains it pours

After experiencing one of the happiest moments of my life, I feel like I'm going downhill. Problems came one after the other and I can't seem to think of a solution for any of it. I feel helpless, but then I remembered that God won't give us trials we can't bear... after all, what's faith for if you're not gonna use it, right? I know, by July I'll be back on top and better than ever.
Bible says:
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)"
"Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall. (Psalm 55:22)"
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. (Isaiah 41:10)"
And as this very popular song says:
"Gulong ng buhay! patuloy-tuloy sa pagikot. Noon ay nasa ilalim... Sana bukas nasa ibabaw naman!"
hehehe

Dawn Watch Prayer

At last, I was able to attend the Dawn Watch Prayer (5am-6am) at our Church's mission house. It has been forever since that activity started and I was not able to participate until now. This activity is intended specifically for praying for the prayer requests of our brethrens, but today was different. Instead of asking for blessings, we gave praising and thanksgiving to God.

An hour long of worshipping and singing.

There was no more that I could ask at that moment and I can say that all my expectations were met. This truly was a memorable experience for me. I'm not saying that I don't want to pray for my brothers and sisters in faith but I want to give back to God as much as possible by saying our thanks and this event made it possible for me to do so.

I'd say, i'll do this regularly. :)
