Lunch out at Ciudad Elmina

Spent time with brothers and sisters in Christ in a restaurant owned by our former city mayor this afternoon. The ambience was bucolic. The menu is simple seafood and vegetable recipes. Saw my sister's pictures and I told her to take me there this afternoon to celebrate my birthday and have fellowship.

Turning a year older and wiser

I am turning 38 years old tomorrow November 17. As years added to my age, I maintain to look 10 years younger ;) (thanks to my genes) but I must say I am learning more about life and myself. I became aware of my weaknesses as a person and a Christian. Realization of these weaknesses give me the desire to become a better person.

What I have realized over the past years of my journey in this life is that I worry too much about my health, work, friends, relatives. I also became aware that I have valued too much some people I met and became friends with but I am not as special to them as they are too me. On friendship and family, I am too sensitive. My sensitivity hurts me first and creates gaps with people I work with or friends. Also, I can easily jump into conclusion or my imagination goes too far over something and later on stresses me. In other words, I think too much.

But the Lord is good enough to make me aware of my weaknesses and I am humble enough to ask for His intervention and guidance. I keep praying to overcome my weaknesses.

Thank you Lord for 38 wonderful years and the succeeding years!

Sometimes Eastwood reminds me of SG. At the Eastwood mall open park there are some men and women who dresses up and entertains people like the one below. They strike a pose with you.

Can't resist to have a photo op with this painter guy as well. :)

Thank you, Lord

I am grateful for the physical healing I received from you, Lord. Thank you for all the trials in my life as they are blessings in reality. Thank you for all the wonderful people in my life, relatives and friends. Thank you for my wonderful job and bosses at work. Thank you for making my dream to experience other culture and see places. Thank you for giving me a best friend who stands by my side all the time. Thank you for a wonderful day. Thank you for the life. Thank you, God!
