Catching up

It seems I need to catch up on my blogging because I missed a day or two. I wonder why?

Came back yesterday from a grueling hearing in the morning then some work in my consultancy.

I was supposed to catch up on some paperwork this morning, only to discover I can't because I did not have the latest manifestation of the document I was supposed to edit. So I have to fit it into this busy day somehow.

Anyway, I also needed to catch up on a couple of HappySlip videos I missed:

"French Fries" is the latest video. It's a music video about a spat Christine had with her father about cholesterol-laden food.

Funny. But not spectacular. But she has a good voice. And she should stop using those ghetto floodlights. Too yellow.

I like this other video she made for Xoom, although it's a commercial. The humor is dead-on Filipino.

Well there. So I'll catch up now on... sleep instead.

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.
