Happy Birthday!

This is the same photo I used last year when I posted a blog to honor dear Mama Mary also on her birthday. (It can be seen here.) I can't stress enough how much help she has given me... From protecting me during the dark nights when I was to ride a Gasak-Recto jeepney all by myself up to healing my pains in battling family crisis... she's just always always there.

Let her unending love touch you as well as we pray:

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

Mama Mary, you have given so much yet you did not ask for anything in return. I hope that like you, I may also be selfless. Thank you.

Another One?

And here I am making another blog... I have thought of so many reasons not to have a second blog but the "calling" was much too strong not to oblige. Masyado atang seloso, possessive at sabik sa sole attention ang tumatawag sa akin. Kaya mapagbigyan na nga.

Kidding aside, I made this blog because it will have an entirely different side of me. Mas mareklamo, mas matanong, at mas OA. Madalas pakipot at papansin na rin. It may be a little darker than Twinkie Calls and maybe in a few more entries, it could flag as an adult blog na rin. Haha! Joke lang.

This would be an online diary of my hope to live an Eternal life as my husband and I go through the Christian Life Program of Couples for Christ. So far, I am loving it. I am sooo excited about it.
The first post, Psalm 23 is the central biblical passage discussed in the book that I am currently reading; Ate Cech generously lent us Traveling Light by Max Lucado. Right now, I have been absent for quite some time from Twinkie Calls because we have been traveling with the heaviest baggages possible... I may share with you how we are coping real soon. Yay! 2 am na pala.

Psalm 23

1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
