Free Belly Bags For "Mom-To-Be's"

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of CryoCell International. All opinions are 100% mine.

Two weeks ago, one of my Filipina friend,Cheryl, happily announced to us through Facebook that she is pregnant. My other Filipina friends and I had decided to visit her in their house right away to celebrate with her and her husband. I love it when I see my friends overwhelming in joy, and that was exactly what I saw in her when we visited her. She made a Filipino dishes for us and we ate dinner together. We had a good time celebrating that moment and we are looking forward that more other Filipina wives will get pregnant soon, too.

Talking about pregnancy, I always shared to them the very helpful website of www.Cryo-Cell.com . It is very informative and essential for "mom-to-be's". This is a family cord blood bank that has helped thousands of thousands of clients to preserve the umbilical cord blood for potential use against many diseases. This has been around since 1992 and is proven very helpful.

In addition to this good information, "mom-to-be's" will receive Free Belly Bag when you fill-up a request form with a date and time of contract at www.Cryo-Cell.net  . They will then call you and explain to you things that you might want to know.

Thankful Thursday - His Compassions Never Fail

Thank God it is Thursday again. I know I missed the past few Thursdays to post this, but here I am now. I don't to make this day pass without this post again. But before I state that things that I am so thankful for, I want to highlight this verses:
.
"Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." (Lamentation 3:22-23)
.
*First of all, I thank God for the trials and problems I have been through lately. It was essential for my growth, in all aspects of my life, whether, spiritual, emotional, social, marital and mental.
*I thank God the daily bread that is always on our table.
*I thank God for the good health and safety on everywhere we go and everything we did.
*I thank God for the job that I still have. It is a great blessing to have a job that I love so much.
*I thank God always for enabling me to send money for my mama's medication and personal needs.
*I thank God for my blog, its sponsors and readers. It is one of the big blessings that I am having since my first few months here in USA until now.
*I thank God for the friends He gave to me... to talk to. Life without one is unimaginable.
*I thank God for all the survivors in Japan, and to all who help them in every way. God's hand is working all around us.
*And above all these, I thank God for the joy, peace of mind and love He planted on my heart that made me withstand during life's storm.
Life is full of reasons to be thankful to God. Let us grab the opportunity, to be able to bring glory to God because after all, this is what God wants from us, to give Him glory for He alone deserves all these. God is amazing and awesome!

Closet Clutter

My husband left early for school this morning, and my work shift will be late this afternoon. I have half day all to myself. I had decided to spend my morning offering Him a song of worship, reading God's word, and meditating on it. I just love to be in the presence of God.
.
The message God gave to me this morning was about clearing out our clutter. If we have been too busy in life (like me) and if you live with somebody who don't care about orderness in the house (like my husband) chances are you end up with clutters all over the house. Every time I perform a general house cleaning, I always start in our closet. Probably because it is the most remote part of the house, and it is where most clutters are filing up because I always hid there the things that I don't want to be visible somewhere else. After I cleaned it, it always feels like it took away the biggest part of the job.
.
To some people, the part of the house that has more clutters are in their garage, to some in basement, to some in bedroom. (Well, we don't have both garage and basement.) But one thing is sure, we are ashamed to open that door to our visitor or guest. We don't want them to see our clutter.
.
It is the same thing with our life. Living in this world, meeting new people, getting acquainted with all these modern stuff and the world's ways, somewhere in our hearts and minds, all these made us accumulate clutter in our lives, and some of them, we are ashame for others to find out. Things such as hate, envy, covetousness, lust, disatisfaction and many more. These are the things that makes our life's "closet" dirty and disorder. And while we think we can hide the clutter, eventually, it will show.
.
The word of God says, "Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?" (1 Corinthians 6:19 NIV ) Knowing this, it makes me think that I let God live in my heart with all the clutters. It is not a good place for a King. It is not how we treat a very special guest in our house. I feel so awful!
.
Well, I think it is about time that we spend a day to clean up the mess in our life. General cleaning is not just needed in our house, it is also needed in our hearts and mind. It is about time we throw away the hatred, the bitterness, the unforgiveness, the lust and everything unpleasant that are hiding in our "closet". It is about time that we organize our attitude and fill our hearts with the beauty of God's Word. Let us make our "closet" clean and then be confident again knowing that there is nothing bad and shameful that you hide in there anymore.

Find A Job You Love

It has been almost four months since I got this job that I have now. I am very thankful to God for giving me this work. For a lot of times, I was just amazed that I am being paid to do these things I am doing... I so loved it. This reminds me of a certain quote that I posted on our "couple's multiple picture frame". It says, "Find a job you love and you'll never have to work another day in your life." So true!
.
I love my job, not only because I enjoy it. I love my job because it gives me all Sundays off, which means we can go to church and spend the whole afternoon together. Other reason why I love my job because it helps me build up my personality and confident in dealing with people here in USA. There are so many things that my job helped, than just supporting me financially, and I believe with no doubt that this is a blessing from God. I never ever regret giving up my previous job which paid better than what I have now, but the downside of it was physical abuse and more.
.
I am not bragging, although it may sound one. I am just very thankful that God give me this job. You can't blame me. If you know me, you will glorify God's name, too, because of the blessing I got. I don't know what lies ahead. I don't know for how long I will stay in my job. It can be like smoke... here now, gone then. Or it can be like a bubble gum stuck to your shoes, it will stick for good. Either way, as long as it is God's will... there is absolutely nothing to worry. The most important is that I always give the best that I can to my job. My employers may not aware of them all, but my ultimate "boss" knows it and the reward is sure to come in any form and on his perfect time.
.
"...then because of this, the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to." (Deuteronomy 15:10 NIV)
