it’s funny how we always look forward to the future and end up not appreciating what we have at the present. I must say that I am guilty of this lately. But something happened over the weekend that brought me back down and really appreciated more and made me see things in a different light.

the clock that determines my stay here in the US is slowly winding down and in effect really worries me and have been affecting my relationship with marchesa. but with the recent events that transpired in the past week, there seems to be a glimmer of hope. yet i realized that my hope has been set on things that don’t really matter, like my immigration status for example, i often catch myself saying, “if i just have a more stable immigration status, my life would have been better”.

that particular statement/attitude shows how i misplace my trust. Prov. 3:5-6, talks about the most basic truth in the bible, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding … it did not say Trust in the Lord with some situations … nope .. it said all, in these crazy times that we live in, the words trust and all is rarely a tandem.

simply said, i don’t really need all the riff-raff to get ahead in life, come to think of it, I have all that I need … and more.

Psalm 20:6-8
6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;
he answers him from his holy heaven
with the saving power of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
8 They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.

I have my God, and He has given me more than I deserve. Especially the one being who I consider as His manifestation of faithfulness and love for me, marchesa.

Thank You.

I love you mahal.
