Tuesday eManna : Not Sinning Because of God's life Within Us

2014-01-14T23:14:00.001+08:00

I have random posts every Tuesday, posting only what comes into mind. However,
after the reflections on the happenings of our today's environment, I decided
that I would post my reflections on the word of the Lord every Tuesday of the
Week. To make this a double digest, I decided to make this a meme and would call
it , "Tuesday eManna". To know what is Manna , know it here.

eManna for Today:

1 John 2:1 My little children, these things I write to you that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous;

Words of Ministry

After we are saved, we should sin no more. John 8 speaks of the Lord Jesus forgiving a woman who had committed adultery. He said to her then and there, "From now on sin no more" (v. 11). Once we are saved, we are charged by the Lord to sin no more! As saved ones, we surely should not continue in sin.

Since a Christian should not sin and should not continue in sins, is it then possible for a Christian not to sin? The answer is yes! It is possible for Christians not to sin because we have God's life within us. This life does not sin. It cannot tolerate any trace of sin. This life is as holy as God is holy. The life within us makes us very sensitive to sin. If we walk according to the sense of this life and if we live by this life, we will not sin.

However, it is possible for Christians to sin. We are still in the flesh. If we do not walk according to the Spirit and live in life, we can sin at any time. Galatians 6:1 says, "Brothers, even if a man is overtaken in some offense..." First John 2:1 says, "My little children...if anyone sins..." It is possible for Christians to be overtaken by sins. There is still the possibility of sinning. First John 1:8 says, "If we say that we do not have sin, we are deceiving ourselves." Verse 10 says, "If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar." Hence, our experience shows us that it is possible for Christians to fall accidentally into sin.

Be White Be Flawless with Flawless Soap

2014-01-13T19:16:00.000+08:00

The trend of today's age is skin lightening and continues to advance due to the growing demand of the market . We must admit that most of us women especially Asian would love to have a lighter and fairer healthy skin. We do spend more on beauty treatments from Clinic procedures and therapies, supplements whether tablets, capsules or IV forms, lotions, creams and soaps, etc. It has more likely become most women's obsession. Popularity of Whitening products in Asian Countries rise where beautiful and fair skin is associated with youth , beauty and prosperity.

Related to the above mentioned trend, I myself spend much time on food for my skin. I love anything that makes my skin soft and lighter as I am a natural born morena (Asian brown skin). I am regularly taking a whitening supplement, have a favorite Korean Face gel and I just love trying a lot of whitening lotions and soaps.

While browsing around Facebook, I noticed a talk of the web--it's this FLAWLESS SOAP. I've seen it from numerous seller online. I decided to try it so I bought some from a seller friend Khiss Ssihk - for a try. I got it a very good price. After almost 2 weeks of using, people around me started to notice that my skin lightens. Wow this soap is super effective. My dark spots lighten too. I am so happy that I have decided to try it. This is the first soap that I truly love.

Flawless Soap is a natural soap that works magic. It was formulated with healthy ingredients like : papaya, moringga, bengkoang, kojic, glutathione, collagen, vitamin E, and placenta gives you a power soap that works effectively to cleanse, moisturize, whiten, soften, and tighten the skin. This soap is a product of Glowcal Marketing Corporation. While reading their blog, I have found out that Glowcal uses the COLD PROCESS SOAP MAKING because this process has been tested for centuries where BASE and ALKALI are employed to formulate the soap. The combination of alkali and base, in this process, generates a heat that is not that intense in order to maximize the potential of ORGANIC NUTRIENTS and HERBAL EXTRACTS.

I see why this soap is proven effective . Their production process tend to maximize the benefits of each herbal content. I will be a sure Flawless-fan from now on.

To know more about a cold processed soap, visit their blog here for more info. Aside from the Flawless soap, Glowcal has other several products which I will still have to try. Try for yourself too :-)

This is how Flawless Papaya Soap looks like

Pagerank and Its Importance

2014-01-11T15:04:00.000+08:00

After a long period of in-activity, my PR3 blog lost its rank. Now that I am back to blogging and just started few days ago, I checked my PR and was delighted that I gained PR1 again. Not a much to boast but at least I got a rank 1 from 10 possible points.

PageRank is an algorithm used by Google Search to rank websites in their search engine results. The term PageRank was named after Larry Page, one of the founders of Google. This is a way to determine the importance of website pages. Google states that:

PageRank works by counting the number and quality of links to a page to determine a rough estimate of how important the website is. The underlying assumption is that more important websites are likely to receive more links from other websites.

What exactly is the importance of Pagerank. What are the advantages of a page gaining a high pagerank? How can it benefit your website? As per my research from the web on its Importance, here are some of the reasons why you should consider your website's pagerank:

1. Your website gains weight and authority through your PageRank

The higher your rank is, the higher is the probability of performing in organic search results.

2. PageRank determines the webpage's popularity

Your PageRank score is a basic way of measuring your website's popularity. The more sites linking back to your website is an indication that your website’s content is of value and is worth visiting by web audiences. The inbound links boost your traffic. Your high score simply means that you have valuable links – Google uses this factor to come up with a ranking algorithm.

3. Pagerank enables your page to gain recurrent indexes

If your website's pages have a high PageRank score, there is a high possibility that the Google spider will index your articles or content. Google as well as other search engines prefer sites which get updates on a regular basis. In return, your webpage gets a high page rank which is also the search engine's way of flagging sites which need to be indexed more frequently.

4. The higher your PageRank –the more opportunity for earning

Generating income through your site is mostly our aim. The higher your pagerank is, the higher your opportunity of having a money-making opportunity. The higher your rank is , the higher are the opps available for you at a good pay.

Display your PageRank anywhere in your site like a badge of honor. It is a great way to achieve credible, well-paid advertisements and link partnerships. So, be proactive and search for ways to increase your traffic to gain rank. There are several available effective SEO and SEM campaigns to get a high score for your website.

Praying For Aively Faith

2014-01-10T21:16:00.001+08:00

There's a sweet miracle that I have been following in Facebook day by day to see how she is doing. She is a cute little darling born from the amazing couple : Ashlee and Keith Crumpton. Since the day I laid eyes on her FB page : Praying For Aively Faith , I have been always excited for amazing updates about this precious one.

The Little Miracle - I just love to see her beautiful smiles :-)

Knowing how the Lord has brought her and the amazing things God has shown for this baby and her family, it made me praise the Lord for His faithfulness that abounds. Since then , I have been made one of her prayer warriors. Aively Faith is now part of my daily prayer list. I love praying for her and her family. Seeing her photos, which her mom regularly posted for everybody's update, always brings warmth and joy to my heart. Among the thousands prayer warriors, I was with Aively's journey every step of the way. She is such a strong girl battling through different circumstances being born only of 26 weeks and 3 days in gestation and weighed 1 lb 15.6 oz last May 5, 2013. Surely the Lord has brought her this far and will continue to carry her through.

Just few hours ago, this little one has just had a surgery to fix her hip. She has a hip dysplasia- it is a developmental deformation or misalignment of the hip joint. I know the Lord will arrange everything for her hip to be corrected and I am praying for that. I was praying a lot that the Lord will sanctify the whole procedure, the doctors and the nurses and all will be well. Surely the Lord is an awesome God and the reality of all the positive things in the universe. Few hours after the surgery she was already up and looking great. See her photos below from her FB page. What a little trooper she is . I am really amaze on how strong she is . I am so relieved and happy that she is looking good.

After the hip surgery- How brave she is;-)

With her pink cast-- Such a cutie.. We love you Aively !~

However, just few minutes ago , I saw an update from her FB page. The update goes like this.

Oh it breaks my heart. How we need extra more prayers for Aively. I hope you guys could join me. We know she is in good hands and the Lord is taking extra care but still she is a little baby and it breaks our heart to know that she is in pain. Pray hard please for the pain to go away and that she will be recovering extra fast. Be a prayer warrior please for Aively. She needs our prayers. Please like her page here.

Thanks everyone. Please remember that our prayer works and moves the Lord's hands. Keep praying as prayer lead the Lord to work within us. May the Lord strengthen our prayer life. Amen.

Yes, the title is my old blog address. I decided to retain it after realizing that I will lose my readers and followers in the past if we changed our url. A new blog address is a new blog as far as the web goes. I do not want to start all over again . It was hard to gain audiences and earn your page rank so I have turned it back to my old url.

2014-01-08T23:00:00.000+08:00

Happy New Year everyone! It's a brand new beginning for me. It's the year of the Wood Horse according to the Chinese Zodiac. I feel some lucky energy surrounding me. Oh well, I'm a horse person, I was born on the year of the horse. So I guess, it's my lucky year ::)

I know I was away for many long months and this blog has been so silent. I was occupied with my career and have no time for extra-curricular activities. But this time it is changed. I have resigned from my work just recently. I am now a Stay-At-Home-Mom (SAHM) and happy about it. I am now the boss of my own life- of course just saying.--the Lord is my real boss I know :-)

What made me cheer is that I can now manage my own time. I vow to have less stress and of course I can now go back to my hobby of writing anything under the sun. Moreover, I have time for my kids. I am happy taking care of them. And the best thing, I have more time for the Lord.

Because I am back to being a blogging Momma, you will see me more often. And to start up with , I have a brand new blog address : http://a-mama-tale.blogspot.com/ . Yes, I have changed it just for a fresh roll-over. I hope you could support me just as before.

Thank you and See you around.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014

Tuesday eManna: The Present God in Our Prayers

2012-03-27T15:49:00.004+08:00

I have random posts every Tuesday, posting only what comes into mind. However,
after the reflections on the happenings of our today's environment, I decided
that I would post my reflections on the word of the Lord every Tuesday of the
Week. To make this a double digest, I decided to make this a meme and would call
it , "Tuesday eManna". To know what is Manna , know it here.

eManna for Today:

Mark 11:24 For this reason I say to you, All things that you pray and ask,
believe that you have received them, and you will have them.

Words of Ministry

From man's point of view, prayer and petition are things of the present, and "you will have them" is a thing of the future. There is a gap of time between "pray and ask" and "you will have them." When I pray to God for the healing of a disease, for the salvation of a sinner, or for the accomplishment of a work, I do not know when the disease will be healed, when the person will be saved, or when the work will be accomplished. In man's eyes, answers to prayer belong to the future. But the Lord Jesus' word here is very unusual. He is speaking of genuine faith. "All things that you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and you will have them."

In our mind, we often misread the word "have" in the phrase "believe that you have received them." We often change it to "believe that you will receive them, and you will have them," or we change it to "believe that you can receive them..." or "believe that you are going to receive them..." But once you change it, that is no longer faith. Only one faith is genuine faith -- the faith that believes that "God is." The Lord's Word does not say "going to receive" but "have received them." I believe that I have received them now. I am not waiting for the future. Do we see this?

Happy New Year 2011!

2011-01-04T17:03:00.003+08:00

Happy New Year!!!

It's been a while and have not updated my blog. I miss blogging. I miss letting myself be heard. What can I do? My work is usurping my time leaving me no room to blog. =(

It's 2011 already. Time flies so fast. One of my New year's resolution is to give time to blogging once in a while. There's not so much to tell about me, except that my baby Lishan has turned 1 year old last December and that she can walk, utter some words like: Daddie, Mama, Bebay (her ate), Neneng (her yaya). She can recognize our neighbors and calls them by their names. I really thank the Lord for such great blessing. Moreso, we've noticed her sing a few lines of Justin Bieber's

"baby, baby, baby, Oh..
Like Baby , baby, baby, no.."

What can I say more, but Praise the Lord!

I hope to be updating more here. Be visiting your blogs too soon!!!

Couple's Corner: My Pregnancies

2010-05-13T17:31:00.008+08:00

May is Mother's month, so we're still talking about motherhood here in couple's corner. Mommy Liz has featured pregnancies this week, so we will be talking about our exciting pregnancy (s) in the past when we have our lovely children developing in our womb.

I had four pregnancies in all. Each of my pregnancy was a new exciting experience from the first one to the last one. My eldest was only conceived within my womb for seven months and was taken from my womb via c-section due to my severe pre eclampsia case. The second and third child were delivered via normal vaginal birth. I had experienced on them the wails, the pains, and the joy of normal birth.

On my youngest, I had the most unforgettable pregnancy. I remember clearly that we went to Baguio last year on the month of April. During our visit, we went to Tam-awan Village where there is a fertility plant which according to them when you touch it you would become pregnant. Out of fun I touched it and even took picture with it. True to its myth the few weeks after, I remembered taking pregnancy test and it was positive. The fertility plant was effective after all. He he

Me touching the fertility Plant

During my entire pregnancy, I had experienced the most discomforts that worsen month after month. There was a time when I was on my third trimester that I was told by OB to have bed rest as I had premature labor. Thanks to the Lord for preparing and arranging the environment for me. I have tasted His faithfulness all throughout. He prepared a great OB-Gynecologists for me whom I have paid tribute in a blog article for his exceptional care and service to me.

It's not easy being pregnant. Your body will be adjusting to all the changes that will occur from the first to the final term. However, the joy of seeing my baby coming out and hearing their first baby cry replaces all the hardships that I have experienced while they were still in my womb.

Being a mother does not stop. It only stops when you are out of life. Once a child is born, we are full time workers, nurturing, cherishing them till they grow to start their own family. Once they have their own family, our motherhood still continues, loving them without question. This is the only profession that is paid with pure love. Mothers therefore are angels who guards our children with hope, faith, happiness and love without end.

Happy Mother's Day to all Including myself...............

Me with my Children on Mother's Day

Would love to hear your story, Join us on Couple's corner!

Couple's Corner: My Mama

2010-05-05T08:59:00.009+08:00

I really miss this Corner!!! I have been so pre-occupied by other things that I missed a lot of topics here in Couple's corner. Now I am back and have a serious thing about blogging=) So just expect me to lodging around this corner from now on..

We are now on the Month of May. One big celebration on this month is "Mother's Day". So this week's topic is all about our "Mothers"- one of the sweetest sounds heard on earth.

My mama is a never ending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. Her prayers have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life. She is my best friend. When trials and heavy burdens fall upon me, when adversity takes the place of prosperity, when friends I have been closed in the past turned their backs on me, when trouble thickens around me, she still clings to me and do her best to dissipate the clouds of darkness and cause peace to return to my heart. She is the best mother to me, to my sister and still to my children. For all that I have been through, there is really no- one else like mama.

This is for You Mama:

I want to thank you
for so many things...
For being the single most special
influence in my life
and the one I look up to and admire
with all my heart;
for being as honest as your word
and never letting me down.

I want to thank you for being
my first real friend
and fairest teacher;
for being insightful, understanding,
and staying on my side.
For giving me all that
a good mother gives, and more:
your love, your time, your patience,
and your ultimate wisdom.

Thank you for being better than anyone else
at showing me how much
I mean to you.
Today, I want to offer you
all that's in my heart:
my greatest love, utmost respect,
and deepest appreciation
for everything you do.

Happy Mother's Day Ma!

It's your time to honor your mother, say something sweet about her in Couple's Corner..

Mommy Moments: Blue!

2010-04-30T09:51:00.009+08:00

I missed Mommy Moments! How are you all here. I was so pre-occupied on the past days , taking my time from precious blogging. I miss seeing all your posts here at MM. Good that I am back and will do my best to join every Friday from now on.=)

Today's theme which is BLUE is so timely. This is our favorite color actually. I love seeing my kids on other colors, but I am so mesmerized when they wear Blue!

Blue is the overwhelming "favorite color." Blue is seen as trustworthy, dependable, and committed.

The color of ocean and sky, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives. As the collective color of the spirit, it invokes rest and can cause the body to produce chemicals that are calming. However, not all blues are serene and sedate.

Electric or brilliant blues become dynamic and dramatic -- an engaging color that expresses exhilaration. Some shades or the overuse of blue may come across as cold or uncaring.

Indigo, a deeper blue, symbolizes a mystical borderland of wisdom, self-mastery, and spiritual realization. While blue is the color of communication with others, indigo turns the blue inward to increase personal thought, profound insights, and instant understandings.

Blue is the least "gender specific" color, having equal appeal to both men and women.

Written by Kate Smith, CMG, CfYH

Here are some photos of my kids in Blue.

My eldest in Blue Pambahay.. =)

If you noticed, Mi Mundo del Amor is back to its blogspot address. Oh dear, I forgot to renew my custom domain. Anyway, when I opened it I was totally surprised and panicked. I thought I'd lost this place. It's a total reminder. Gahh, I have been so lazy on blogging lately and was pre-occupied with some online money making activities like yovia and shopwiki that I have completely taken for granted Mi Mundo del Amor which I should not be doing in the first place.

So here I am , shaking up and loosening all the laziness. I am back and hope for the better. So how are you all? I know I have lots of catching up to do and visiting to do. Apologize for not being here for quite long. I will do my best to keep track and blog more often.

By the way, I have some few shots here of my youngest daughter and baby. She is 4 months and running 5 months old this coming May 9. Time flies, she was just a wee baby and now look how big she is being able to sit on her own.

One Happy Baby- Lishan at almost 4 months

She can sit on her own @ 4 months

Definitely loves to play..

Tuesday eManna: Eating Our Difficulties as Food

2010-03-16T11:28:00.002+08:00

I have random posts every Tuesday, posting only what comes into mind. However, after the reflections on the happenings of our today's environment, I decided that I would post my reflections on the word of the Lord every Tuesday of the Week. To make this a double digest, I decided to make this a meme and would call it , "Tuesday eManna". To know what is Manna , know it here.

eManna for Today:

Num. 14:7 And they spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, saying, The land through which we passed to spy out is an exceedingly good land.
(8) If Jehovah is pleased with us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us; a land which flows with milk and honey.
(9) Only do not rebel against Jehovah, nor should you fear the people of the land, for they are our bread. Their protection has been removed from them, and Jehovah is with us; do not fear them.

There is another noteworthy matter in connection with Caleb. He told the Israelites that they could go up immediately, they could overcome, and they did not have to be afraid of them
[their enemies]
, because “they will be our bread.” Bread is something to eat. Bread is something that brings increased strength, that makes one stronger after he eats it. The inhabitants of the land were admittedly “men of great size,” but in Caleb's eyes, they were food for God's people. He not only honored God's promises; he despised all the difficulties. Everyone who has genuine faith honors God and lightly esteems all difficulties. But this leaves no room for pride, for only those who humble themselves before God will be able to stand upon His victory.

Every time you meet a difficulty, every time you find yourself in an impossible situation, ask yourself this question: Am I going to starve here, or am I going to eat? If you are relying on the Lord for victory and allow His overcoming life to be manifested in you, you will find fresh nourishment and increased vitality, and you will be fed once again. Bear in mind that people who do not eat well cannot grow into maturity. Our bread is not only the word of God, our meat is not only to do His will, our bread is also the Anakim--the difficulties that are in our way. Many eat too little of the Anakim. The more we eat the Anakim, the stronger we will become. Caleb is a grand illustration of this. Because he accepted the Anakim as “bread,” he was still full of vitality at the age of eighty-five. His strength was the same at eighty-five as it was at forty. So many Anakim had been assimilated by him over the years that he had developed a constitution which showed no trace of age.

This is also true in the spiritual realm. ...there are those who have met and overcome difficulty after difficulty, temptation after temptation; they are full of vigor because they have fed well on Anakim. We have to eat our difficulties and our temptation. Every difficulty and every temptation Satan puts in our way is food for us. This is a God-appointed means of spiritual progress. The sight of any trouble strikes terror into the heart of those who do not have faith, but those who trust Him say, “Here comes my food!” Praise and thank the Lord, all our trials, without exception, are bread for us. Every trial brings in growth after we have eaten of it. As we accept one trial after another, we are more and more richly nourished.

Summer Outing at Triple-G Beach!

2010-03-15T14:03:00.007+08:00

Happy Monday!!! I was tired from the long trip to and from our company outing last Saturday! We had plenty of sun and my daughter loved the waters a lot. She was literally swimming the whole day. She seemed to have all the energy and never got tired from waddling on the waters.
We went to Triple G Beach Resort in Laiya, San Juan Batangas.

It was fun at the beach with my colleagues and their families. The day became hotter with all the laughter and cheers all around.

Oh by the way, got this new template from Leelou. Suddenly had this mood for a new theme so I grabbed one free template and viola here it is. Hope you love it.

In truth a family is what you make it. It is made strong, not by number of heads counted at the dinner table, but by the rituals you help family members create, by the memories you share, by the commitment of time, caring, and love you show to one another, and by the hopes for the future you have as individuals and as a unit. --MARGE KENNEDY, The Single Parent Family

Couple's Corner: Honesty is the best Policy

2010-03-03T10:06:00.011+08:00

Hello! It's nice to be back to Couples Corner. I have missed this meme since December. It's my first entry for 2010 then. This is kinda late, this was supposed to be yesterday but I was preoccupied so I thought to finish it today. I feel great to be here again. Our topic for this week is " Honesty is the best policy" .

Mommy Liz is brilliant to came up with such topic as I believed that Honesty is one of the best foundation in a successful marriage life. Lies is the spawn of the father of darkness Satan. When a relationship is surrounded by lies and dishonesty the union will be divided. We may think that it is okay to lie sometimes when we are afraid... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing that we fear grows stronger. It may take care of the present but it has no future.

I know I have a lot of shortcomings when it comes to honesty. I many times tried to avoid petty quarrels by diverting the truth into simple white lies. However, I conclude that whenever I am caught the small quarrel that I am avoiding turned our worse. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind as to care for his present situation, he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime. It's a crime then to lie.

So on our marriage, as much as possible on my best ability I try to tell the truth. When truth is divided, errors multiply. As human as we are, my husband commit the same mistake. He lied to me a few times. However, as we know that dishonestly breeds deceit , we try to avoid it as much as we could. I just wish I have the magic to read minds so I may know that He is totally honest with me. But I wish too that he would not have the same magic so I wouldn't be caught some times. LOL!

Remember honest heart, produces honest actions. An honest man is the noblest work of God. Dare to be honest , each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure. So to make your marriage work let it be grounded with honesty.

My Precious Ones

My precious one, my tiny one, lay down your pretty head.
My dearest one my sleepy one, its time to go to bed

Just lie your head and give your cares to me.
Just close your eyes and fall into the sweetest dream,
cause in my loving arms

My precious one my darling one don't let your lashes weep.
My cherished one my weary one it's time to go to sleep.

Just lie your head and give your cares to me.
Just close your eyes and fall into the sweetest dream,
cause in my loving arms

You're safe as you will ever be so hush my dear and sleep.
And in your dreams you'll ride on angels' wings.
Dance with the stars and touch the face of God...
and if you should awake
I'll send you back to sleep.

Mommy Moments: A Song from a Mom's Heart

2010-02-26T10:17:00.004+08:00

It's Friday!!! It's Mommy Moments time! I have missed a lot of topics during my hibernation. Lol.. But now that I am back , I will do my best to keep on coming back to MM every Friday. This weeks topic appeals to me a lot, " Song From a Moms Heart" ..

When I was pregnant with my third child, Alikah Arienh, I really had a favorite song. If we have "paglilihi" (intense craving or like of something) during pregnancy, that song might be my pinaglilihian. LOL. It's A Praise and worship song actually, "Shout to the Lord" by Darlene Zschech. I play it over and over again on my PC on the office, at the music player at home and even when I play the piano it was my favorite piece to play. I love the lyrics and the tune. Such a wonderful way to praise the Lord as there is no one Like Him.

It did not surprise me that when Alikah grew up, she also loves the song. She sang it together with me and oftentimes ask me to play the song over the piano. I play it, she sings it. That is then our favorite song, a special song for us. A Song of Praise to the Lord making our spirits sing with praises and glory to the King.

How about you? Share your special song with us here at Mommy Moments.
