The 7 Last Words Worship Service

By rona

Happiness is being able to attend the 7 Last Words Worship Service this morning at San Andres Sports Complex in Manila. All the Methodists from the Southwest Metro Manila District attended. Bishop Daniel Arichea Jr. was our guest speaker. His very inspiring message once again reminded us of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. We were also inspired of his personal story from being an Atheist into knowing Christ and have not let go of Him in his life anymore. 


From the moment we arrived, it was overwhelming that we have already felt the dwelling of the Lord in our midst. We sat at the upper level of the sports complex so we had a good view of the whole congregation from our place. Normally, our church, would do traditional kind of worship. But today, it was different. The whole worship was contemporary that the choice of songs and readings were very powerful. I was in awe of God's strong movement that I was moved to tears when one of the pastors called everybody in front for the altar call. He asked all the pastors to come upfront to pray for each and everyone. My husband pastor went. Seeing that very scene touched my heart that I saw myself praying and laying my hands unto the people as well. The spirit of worship and the songs sang by the Praise and Worship team was all in the atmosphere. 

This experience today is not just happiness. It's an inner joy that no material things could ever give. I and Hubby came out feeling blessed and full of joy. Indeed, Jesus came and died for our sins because He loves us that much that He left His Holy Spirit for us to experience Him up to this present time. All the praises and power and glory to Jesus Christ alone. Amen.

    Everyone of us has it own way of celebrating Christ's sacrifices to us. Regardless of how we do it always consider only the unconditional love of God to us. Have a Blessed Easter!

My Wedding Dress

By delle
Hello everyone! Since I ran out of topics to blog about, I resorted to a thinking that I'd be blogging about everything that happened to my wedding, just recently (June 2011). From the things and needs that I bought, photos, to the memorabilias that I treasure. I hope you bear with me. Hihi! So here, I started it with my wedding dress! To refresh my memories, I bought this wedding gown on the month of my wedding already. It was 2 weeks before my big day! All I heard from my loved ones was blame because I haven't prioritized it but come on! It's because I was too busy planning everything. Huhu. ;( So, after several fittings in Divisoria,  here's what I liked the most. It could be very simple but it struck my heart when I tried it on. Well, you can tell since I'm a simple woman. This wedding dress is made from a pure white silk cloth and fine linings. There's not much design on it but I like how those sequins were sewn perfectly on top. With this wh...

Valentine's Dinner Date

By rona
My hubby and I had an early Valentines dinner date which was last Sunday night. He always hate traffic which is expected on that sweet day. And so, he thought of having dinner with me earlier at Don Henrico's along Midtown Plaza! I was like grinning in excitement to taste this 14" pizza! I'm a pizza lover and my hubby exactly knows that. We also chose this special spot where there is this dim light so it looked even more romantic. Sorry, I only had taken a picture of the pizza for too much excitement to bite a slice. See that moved slice already? I was grabbing one when I remembered to take picture. And that couple in front of us wearing those exact same tshirt is an evidence that Valentines Day could be anytime! So fun! Just a very wise decision you two. You did the right thing of dating earlier just as we did! Linking with:

Both of which are rewards too for making her a new makeover for her Journey blog. And by the way, I've made it really cute and chic and I did enjoy designing it. For you to have a quick peek, hover over this link: www.roviebren.info All in all, I've got 3 domains now among my 5 blogs! And they all are gifts of friendship for being able to help and be helped. Actually, I never aspired to have my own domains before but seeing my links now makes me feel blessed and happy. Krizza is right, my blog designing brought me to this exciting level. And so, before I end this post, to you my fellow bloggers, please do support my designs site here and like its Faceb...
