Things that happened

Actually, I had a blog post yesterday but I am still deciding whether I will publish it.

But yesterday, I got Bea's grades. Not bad. Improved a lot and I'm grateful for that.

But apart from the bad Friday, there was also a bad yesterday, as I saw my big deal fall apart before my very eyes. I hope we can salvage the situation next week, as hope is the only thing we have at this point.

And to top it all of, choir was another thing that did not happen yesterday. The choir was called away on a seminar in the parish church and I could not go with them on account of my bum foot.

But my foot's a lot better now. I can even walk straight with only minimal pain.

So next week will hopefully be a better week than this one. I'm glad this week is about to end.

I'll also decide sooner or later whether I'll publish that post I made yesterday. The subject is a bit sensitive. But I've already emailed that to my closest friends to get their advise on the matter.

Here's to a... better week ahead. And enjoy what's left of this week.

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.
