Living in the NOW

I am seriously looking forward to Jan 2008 because of a lot of great things that are bound to happen. Like my new job, though I haven't signed the job offer and the probationary contract yet, and the Landmark Forum.

Last night I had a blast with Karmi, Derek and Marco. Marco invited us to his pad in Makati, which I've been making him kulit ever since I found out he had this amazing rooftop view. So Derek and I brought wine, us four ate dinner in Bravo, then after that we stayed on the rooftop's helipad. I can still remember that, despite the scary height, the 360 degree view of the Makati Skyline is really breathtaking at night. I kinda minded the pollution hovering the air though haha I quickly took a shower once I got home! Anyway, we had wine and Marco brought his trusty SLR and tripod so we took pictures of ourselves sipping wine and having a great conversation. It's as if we were in a tarmac. I really loved it--the lights, the buildings, the lighted big Santa Ana Racetrack, the fireworks over the horizon.. Amazing view, great company. I had so much fun.=)

Yesterday while driving to Makati I was thinking and praying to God about letting me increase my territory so I can touch someone's life that day. After talking to Karmi that night, I realized that God answered my prayer. He talked to Karmi through me, or rather, He talked through me to Karmi for me. I said all that I wanted to hear from Him. The message was to be patient, evaluate concrete actions and do not be preoccupied or dwell on people or things that I want for now but maybe is not really for me. There are greater things in store for me. So I make it my life's commitment to ask for His supernatural Blessings and miracle in my life everyday.=)

Today I got struck by His Message while reading the Prayer of Jabez: my wants are secondary to my now acknowledged need which is His Plenty, His Blessings, His awesome grace which I cannot begin to fathom and which He alone knows.=)

So I am asking for His bountiful blessings for my life. I am not gonna ask for a mere cup over the edge of the river to sustain me for the day. What I will do every single daw is to ASK for His Blessings and jumped in the river! I know He will Be With Me. =)

And this is my life...
Your will Lord, whatever it is, whatever it takes. No day but today.=)
