Punzi's Corner Blog: A ton

Thursday, March 22, 2007
This day in history from:

A ton

After working like a dog (albeit at home) yesterday, I took a break at around 1:00 p.m. to watch Bea's performance in their dramatics club production. My, my little girl is really growing up fast before my eyes... and she was good. Probably the effect of all the drama in her life...

Then, it was back to the salt mines...

But today, it was relatively light. A couple of hours in my consultancy, lunch with my mother at The Block, picked up Bea from school (as well as some PS2 games to which I seem to have re-acquired an addiction because I have been running them in gorgeous "hi-def" resolutions, courtesy of the composite component video cables.) I seem to be hooked on God of War these days and I really look forward to its sequel...

It will be back to "back-breaking" work tomorrow. I will be home late. So I may not have time to post an entry.

Good thing my "chamber sessions" resume on Saturday, as well as choir duties.

But I hope I could see my old law school choirmates on a regular basis... and that's really not that far off.

Later...

Disaster relief, sustainable development & community service

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
