Letting go and Letting God

While I was browsing the Internet for some potential Gundam Model Kits to purchase, I suddenly thought of looking for some Gundam Anime notable quotes. One of the most known (and now personal favorite) quotes was mentioned by a character named Neil “Lockon Stratos” Dylandy. Here’s what he had to say:

“The only thing the past can change is how you feel about things in the present.”

Boom. This quote hit me like a knife in the heart. It was so simple yet straightforward. As a Christian, I seek for these kinds of quotes. Our Pastor, Leo Carlo Panlilio once told us about lines in film/any other media that would really strike us, and I believe that this is one of them. You can’t change the past unless you have a time machine, of course. Instead, we can change how we feel right now. Yes, it is easier said than done, but it HAS TO be done because we cannot move forward without letting go of the past, and we cannot grow into our fullest potential if we continue to cling to it.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

God has wonderful plans for us, but He cannot work on us without letting go of things that may hinder us from growing as a follower of Christ and as a person.  These may be habits, material things, or even people. I want to focus on the third possible hindrance.

Throughout our lifetime, we meet a lot of people, whether they become friends, acquaintances or even enemies. But then there are people whom we consider special, people who suddenly walk into our lives out of nowhere, people who add color into our already colorful lives. At first, we may not notice them, we may only even consider them as acquaintances. As time passes by, however; we slowly but surely start growing fond of them to the point that we become friends with them. Then your feelings start to change from simple, platonic emotions to love. That’s the time that you would feel that the person is indeed special.

 “There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven—” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

 But then of course, it would be a perfect love story if the other person feels the same, right? That would be awesome! But what if the time is not yet right? What if it’s not yet your season? There would be a lot of circumstances that would come into play here. He might still be starting with his career, she might still be studying, both of them might need to focus more on their intimacy with Christ rather than with each other. That’s major hindrance for Christian growth there, ladies and gentlemen. If it’s not yet your season, don’t force it, as you will only get hurt. A lot of people would say: “Go for it, before he/she gets nabbed by someone else”. To be honest, I was afraid of this. Seeing your special someone with another person. That feeling scared me. That was the last thing that I want to happen.

“Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2)

 But then I remembered that God’s will is still top priority over mine. One thing’s for sure though, as I mentioned earlier, He has great plans for us, so great that we cannot fathom its greatness. All we have to do is to FOLLOW HIM, and let Him work in our lives. This gave me peace of mind. There’s still part of me that does not understand what He wants to happen in my life. My way of responding to this is simple, and that is to submit to Him and surrender that past and that fear of losing her.

To the person reading this, whether you’re a believer or not, one thing’s for sure: God is faithful. He will never allow you to let go of someone without a reason. Who knows, in the end, the person that you wanted might be the one you’ll end up when the time comes.

I would die for You

  As each day passes by, you ignore me

Take me for granted, day by day

You deny, reject, and even defy me

Everytime you throw me away

  But when you’re down, you give me a talk

When you need money, you call my name

But when I answer you, away you go and walk

You say you need me but you never stay the same

  Some would call me a fool for giving you my love

They would tell me to just stop

But I cannot do it; I am free as a dove

I would love you till I Drop

  I would die for you because I love you

Because you mean everything to me

I will just be here waiting for you

Waiting for you to approach me

All of the Sudden I realized. The only Person that would make you happy is your total opposite. That puts me out of the Picture.

Life Goes On, passionately. As long as I am alive, Even if I were to lose sight of my real self, Life Goes On, I want to protect it. My heart was shattered, And in these eyes that have seen true sorrow, Love is overflowing

A boy speaks, a man acts.

No. You’re not amazing. Your breed is not rare. It just that you can write and say what every girl wants to hear or to feel like wrong guys do.

My boy, he’s not a writer nor a blogger. He’s sick of dramas but he’s sweet without trying to be. He seldom say the right things, but he does right things.

My fear is overcoming myself again

In my nearly two decades of existence, I have built on the identity of taking risks. And through those risks I have achieved numerous results. Some are good, some are bad. With that being said, You may say that I am used to the outcome of my risk-taking. But to be honest, no. I'm still nervous of the results. That's the beauty of Risk-taking. The Unpredictability would keep you second or third guessing on things that you do.

As of now, there's this girl I would like to hide by the name Diana. She's 19, and we're both graduating students but with different courses. The thing here is, she's NBSB. (No Boyfriend Since Birth). Even though I have experience in relationships, I'm still having a hard time reaching her out. One of my skills is that I can easily interact with the people around me but she's a different story. It's as if she has an invisible barrier.

I've known here for almost a year now. At first I only looked at her as a friend, a colleague, but as time passed by, all of that changed. Everytime I see her, my heart skips a beat, When She smiles, I can't help but to smile back. I even ask myself: What does this girl have that makes me fall for her?

And now, I'm planning on telling the truth to her. But fear overcomes me all the time. Will I take this risk or will I just stay on the safe side? one part of me wants to tell her the truth while the other part of me just wants to shut up. I've seen all the possible risks that may happen here, and a lot of them would not be good. Should I follow my heart or my mind? Would I just bury my feelings for her or would I take the risk again and possibly Discover the Batgirl of this Nightwing's Life?

Utter Disappointment

Why do they still have doubts at me? I'm doing my job, I do what they told me to do. But they still don't trust me. Do they really consider me as a part of them?

MAME-SABI lang para mapamukhang magaling sila, na famous sila at idegrade ang ibang bloggers. Sinasadya man nila yon o hindi.

Dahil ba wala siyang notes? Dahil walang pumapatol sa mga post niya? Tatawanan na ng mga MAME dahil MEMA siya. MEMA-POST lang daw. Sinulat niya yun ng may puso. Sumusulat...
