“Worship The Lord Your God, And Serve Only Him” (Luke 4:8). “Jesus Knows What That Means. It Means

“Worship the Lord your God, and serve only him” (Luke 4:8). “Jesus knows what that means. It means lowliness, abuse, persecution. It means remaining misunderstood. It means hate, death, the cross. And he chooses this way from the beginning. It is the way of obedience and the way of freedom, for it is the way of God. And therefore it is also the way of love for human beings.”

— Dietrich Bonhoeffer (God Is on the Cross: Reflections on Lent and Easter)

The path we choose towards God is not all sunshine and daisies. It is rough and bumpy. But our destination is clear. It holds the promise of love, happiness and everlasting life.

“I like cancelled plans. And empty bookstores. I like rainy days. And thunderstorms. And quiet coffee shops. I like messy beds and over-worn pajamas. Most of all, I like the small joys that a simple life brings.”

Shoutout to low maintenance friends, the ones you don’t talk to for months because you are all busy in life but when you meet up, there’s nothing but love.

— Word Porn

It feels so good to forget responsibilities and meet with friends once in a while, just reminiscing the times when life was still less stressful and less demanding and just casually talking about future plans.💟✨

Sweet Serendipity

You and I

We have separate lives

We have different plans

We have our own set of goals

But when God destined us to meet

I knew right there and then

I finally found someone I can share

my life, my plans, and my goals with

It is indeed a sweet serendipity.

patungong kinabukasan

Ngunit ang mga tanawin

ay tila ba larawan ng nakaraan
