an interesting video
For once I believe in these words..
Words like Disney disillusioned us into something which is not true. - I am in every way a believer of happy endings and reality is far out from the movies.
It is not the LOVE that sustains the promise BUT the PROMISE sustains the love. - I particularly liked this line because I believe in commitment and being faithful to your chosen partner. We often say til death do us part, but does it only means when the love goes away?.
Love is an interesting thing, and in the end, it is God who wills us to have that kind of love and story in our lives. Yes, not is not a happily ever after all.

Strengthen Your Faith
DEVOTIONALS: JANUARY 8, 2012 Sunday
Word For Today
"You gave me room when I was in distress" - Psalm 4:1
When God wants to make you a bigger person, He does it through distress.
MUSCLES- to build them you must LIFT MORE WEIGHT!
Our FAITH is the same way.
I MUST EXERCISE MY FAITH.
Faith not used or enhanced doesn't build up but slowly weakens.
Satans main TARGET is MY FAITH. He wants to separate me from my faith.
The way to exercise faith is to know how to deal with our attitude at times of attack, how to think if we are under attack, and to understand the battle that we are in.
Satan may attack me in my lowest and weakest point but how I handle the situation, how I rely on God and how I exercise my faith in these kind of times matter.

THIS YEAR, Launch OUT
NOTE: DEVOTIONS
"launch out to the deep and let down your nets for a catch." -Luke 5:4
Mediocrity - the best of the worst and the worst of the best.
- ordinary, nothing special
Do I want my life to continue living in mediocrity?
- It is true that I have been quite competitive and had various dreams in the past but I have realized that as I got older my life seems to go downhill towards mediocrity. Ordinary is alright but that's how good as it gets.. Alright.
I want to be willing to leave the safety of where I am right now. I am comfortable, ordinary and safe. It doesn't make sense for the likes of me.
Hellen Keller once said, "Security is a myth. The reason we don't experience i is because it doesn't exist. Avoiding danger or failure is no safer in the long run than out-right risk. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all."
Launching OUT means setting goals, establishing a plan to reach them, and becoming accountable.
Launching OUT means staying in sync with God's will, confronting fears and discovering rewards that lie on the other side of them. It demands looking in the mirror, and respecting or correcting what you're becoming.
It is devoting your life to something greater than yourself, even when others don't understand.
This new year:
1. Recall God's goodness for the past year.
2. Learn and correct past Mistakes.
3. Pray for God's will for my life.
4. Set Goals.
5. Establish a Plan
6. Be accountable.
7. Get out of the boat (my comfort zone)
8. Trust God.
9. Launch OUT
10. Don't look back!!
In a way, I have lost my sense of direction the past 2 or 3 years. I have no time for regrets now. I want my life back. God is not finished with me yet. I may have put my life on hold. Kept on waiting, I sat there in wishful thinking that things will eventually fall into place. But I want CHANGE and that means I have to change a part of me (or maybe all of me) to achieve God's purpose in my life.
I will claim my life back. I will claim God's victory over y life.
Things will change. I may be a person who is full of fear but I don't want that anymore. It's time to fight back and claim what's mine. My destiny, God's favor, God's purpose in my life.
2012 means:
I will Launch Out into the DEEP ad Let down my NETS for a catch!!
