first thing’s first, since i didn’t get to blog yesterday:
HAPPY seventeensixteen, YESTERDAY !!!!
perze and i have had major ups and downs, distressing news, and our own emotions to deal with ever since the beginning of this year, and i know God doesn’t promise us that it will stop, He only renews our joy every morning to face what comes for that day. i praise God for His faithfulness in our lives, individualy, and in our relationship. i don’t admit to having a perfect relationship with perze, because we are two very imperfect people, but i praise God for His ability to perfect us, that constant grinding of who we are, the continuous chiseling of better refinements, and i know God is the refining fire of our relationship.
perze’s been having car problems again, and this time, it’s hit him hard again, but we talked it over and we’ve counted our blessings. one, safety. always the biggest blessing. two, there were kind people to really help him out, the mechanics and tow trucker. three, Perze is loved so much that Ate Lilng Ling and Kuya William let him borrow their new Toyota Corolla. It was a very humbling experience to know that they are so giving. God bless their giving nature.
i guess, it’s easy to complain about so many things, and believe me, we have. but one thing that i’m so proud about perze is this: his humility. no matter the things that may beat him down, the pressures of life, he may be upset or discouraged, or depressed, but he never raises his voice, never throws a tantrum, never leaves everyone, is never hotheaded. i think this is why we are always quick to resolve our arguments, because in the end, he humbles himself. And in the end of all his woes, when he has completely given it to God, he humbles himself. so i looked up a song that has recently caught his affection, so here are the lyrics:
More
by Matthew West
Take a look at the mountain
Stretching a mile high
Take a look at the ocean
Far as your eye can see
And think of Me
Take a look at the desert
Do you feel like a grain of sand?
I am with you wherever
Where you go is where I am
And I’m always thinking of you
Take a look around you
I’m spelling it out one by one
(Chorus)
I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I’ll say it again and again
I love you more
Just a face in the city
Just a tear on a crowded street
But you are one in a million
And you belong to Me
And I want you to know
That I’m not letting go
Even when you come undone
(Chorus)
I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I’ll say it again and again
I love you more
Shine for Me
Shine for Me
Shine on, shine on
Shine for Me
