This One thing

“…I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead” (Philippians 3:13, NLT).

I dont expect anything this day or this coming days. In short, I am in my normal day to day. Well, not that normal because I have a video to make. I was included in the Independence Day celebration. For this, I am grateful that I can still serve even I am miles away from home. But today, i received an unexpected letter from the Danish govt assessing my qualification. I never expect this anymore coz it took too long for them to response. I just thought that they might not receive my application or I sent wrong application. And I am so happy and overwhelmed. A spark of hope. I dont know what will be my next step. All i know is, this is something really big. If you just faithful to Him, he will remain faithful. And this is really true!

Now, I am focusing on what´s ahead and forget I have been through..

April 1 – Maundy Thursday

“19And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me."

20In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.” (LUKE 22: 19-20)

This is a start when people meditate and reflects on what Jesus did on the cross. This is also my first time to celebrate away from the Philippines. Usually, I am in the retreat and make my self busy on the program. But for the last 2 years, I decided to celebrate it differently. I didn’t go anywhere nor I didn’t have any plane to do something special. It’s my decision. To take time. There’s so many things going on in my head and I cant decide yet what will I do. But this is not my day and let that offer into His hands. It is His day. The day of celebration on how he conquered death and rose again.
