Philippine Independence Day

"Too much blood has been shed to gain our freedom".

June 12, 1898 - (Wikipedia)

"We want the happiness of the Philippines,

but we want to obtain it through noble and just means.

If I have to commit villainy to make her happy,

I would refuse to do so, because I am sure that
what is built on sand sooner or later would tumble down."

Jose Rizal

But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;

the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed. "

"Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting;
The soul that rises with us, our life's star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting,
And cometh from afar;

Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But railing clouds of glory do we come
From God, who is our home."

To bestow on them a crown of beauty ,
instead of ashes, the oil of gladness
instead of mourning, and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair...

Isa. 61:3

"What a joy it is to feel the soft, springy earth under my feet
once more, to follow grassy roads that lead to ferny brooks
where I can bathe my fingers in a cataract of rippling notes,
or to clamber over a stone wall into green fields
that tumble and roll and climb
in riotous gladness. "
Helen Keller

Cheers And Have A Lovely Week!

And changes deep darkness into morning,
Who also darkens day into night,
Who calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the surface of the earth,
The Lord is His name."

I am not what I hope to be.
But still, I am not what I used to be.
And by the grace of God, I am what I am."
John Newton

"There is nothing that we can see on earth which does not
either show the wretchedness of man
or the mercy of God. One either sees
the powerlessness of man without God,
or the strength of man with God."

"God dwells in His creation
and is everywhere indivisibly present in all His works"
Tozer

From Archives April 2009

Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!

Who stretched a measuring line across it?
On what were its footings set ,
or who laid its cornerstone,
while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels shouted for joy?.
Job 38:4-7
