God's Little Princess

I want to tell you a story about a Princess. This is not like any other fairy tale because it doesn't have an ending =)

I was born on the 1st day of January. I have 3 siblings: 2 sisters and a brother. I am the youngest in the family. I grew up well loved and provided. Unfortunately, the other members of our family hated me and treated me badly.

My siblings were the one who took care of me because our mother was too busy with family business. One of my cousins lived with us for a few years and made my life miserable every time we're alone.

Like everyone else, I faced different trials in my life and these circumstances build up my negative personalities.

I am vulnerable. My friends were always there for me but it was not enough. I feel so empty! I wanted to escape.

When I got into college, I met someone. Let's name him Pengu.

Pengu treated me like a princess. He surprises me every day! We were always together plus late night texts, phone calls, yahoo messenger, we were inseperable!

After a few months, everything changed! I thought we were brought together for a reason. That maybe, God wanted me to change him for the better but I was tortured emotionally, physically & I lost myself in the process.

I finally decided to break up with him after two and a half years. He begged me not to. So I tried to save the relationship again for the last time even if it doesn't feel right! The only thing that's holding me back is pity. He finally let me go days later.

I was able to move on easily but a part of me was gone and the pain became the focus of my life.

Summer came. I suddenly thought about joining organizations as a divertion. I discovered that there are many to choose from but "Singles for Christ" came into my mind so I searched for it and texted the contact person, Kuya Nino.

..Another chapter of my life

To become part of the SFC, I attended their CLP (Christian Life Program) which is consists of 12 talks:

Talk 01: God's Love
Talk 02: Who Is Jesus Christ
Talk 03: What It Means To Become A Christian
Talk 04: Repentance And Faith
Talk 05: Loving God
Talk 06: Loving Your Neighbor
Talk 07: The Christian Family
Talk 08 : Life in the Holy Spirit
Talk 09 : Receiving the Power of the Holy Spirit
Talk 10 : Growing in the Spirit
Talk 11 : Life and Mission of SFC
Talk 12: Transformation in Christ

It's not easy to serve. There are still problems and temptations. There's no excuse! The difference is that you will learn to be able to take things lightly and have a huge support system to pray & intercede for you!

I have gone through metanoia, "a change of heart", a working process.


I discovered/learned that:

1. I am a Princess!!

-and-

2. I am totally, completely and perfectly loved by my Father, The King of Kings!

With that, things will never be the same!

I'll end this post with one of the songs that really touched my heart. A song dedicated to my Father!

FOREVER

Here's the link if you want to listen to it, http://youtu.be/XJsB3QqBE3M

I'll Worship at Your Throne
Whisper my own love song
With all my heart I'll sing
For You my Dad and King
I'll live for all my days
To Put a smile on Your face
And when we finally meet
It'll be for eternity

And Oh how wide You open up Your arms
When I need Your love
And how far You would come
If ever I was lost
And You said that all You feel for me
Is undying love
That You showed me through the cross

I'll worship You my God
I'll worship You my God
I love You
I love You
Forever I will sing
Forever I will be with You
Be with You
