Fireproof

In every relationship there will always be a fire that tries to burn the two lovers out, but in our case, we have proven that we are fireproof.

I like the movie that our Psychology class under Sir Mike watched when he was not around during the first week of the semester. It's about understanding and faith, and about the real love that you can give to your partner and to other people. It's about love that God has given us and that love that shines to other people as well.

CONFESSION
Monday night, I confessed to my girlfriend about something that happened during my first semester in Diliman. She did not expect it. She cried. She asked for two-week break up because she said that she needed time to think and to be with her friends. At first I didn't know what to say, but then I remember the film, so I said I am giving her time. My confession is about a traumatic incident that happened during sophomore year here in Diliman.


BEST FRIEND'S ADVICE
Tuesday evening she texted and said that my best friend Ace is right that she needed to cool herself first before deciding anything. I am blessed having Ace as my best friend, he even texted me upon knowing what happened between Lyle and I.


FAITH IN RELATIONSHIPS
This morning Lyle texted- maybe she saw my posts in Facebook- and said that our context is way different with the film because of culture differences and that wife in the Philippines is expected to do the chores unlike in the US. I told her that yes, we have different context but my point is about the faith in relationship. She argued that if the two have faith in their relationship, then they should not have experienced the 'fire' after all. She again had point, but it's about faith through the love of God and that love that is reflected to others.


 FIRST STORM, FIRST FIRE
This maybe the first serious 'fire' that tried to wreck us after some years. I thank God for making us surpass this. I love Lyle and I believe that this love will be one of the reasons why we will last forever. We will keep the faith in us and we will keep God as the center of the relationship.

God's words for today

^"19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,"




Matthew 28:19*
______
  I thank God for all the blessings that i have been receiving through my whole life- my family, friends, relatives, classmates, teachers and professors, and for the other people who have always been there for me. I am always ready to serve Him and to make me as His instrument in broadcasting his blessings and wonderful gifts that He has for all the people using whatever available media that I have now.
