    Gadgets and Going Home

    13

    Today I finally had the time to bring my lappytoppy to a Toshiba service center, albeit not that easily. Since Makati does not actually have the most lenient road rules and standards — meaning one can’t get on and off a bus or jeepney just anywhere one needs to — I spent a considerable amount of time walking just to get to the building where the Toshiba customer service is, only to find out that their service center is actually located somewhere else. So I had to walk some more.

    If for some reason someone needs this information, here’s the address:

    Dramatic Monologue Part 1

    5

    My life is a cycle of major emotional ups and downs. At one point, I feel fine, going about life though everything’s fine and dandy. And at another, I feel restless, like there’s something that I need to do or change in my life, but couldn’t identify what that is exactly so I can finally bring peace to my antsy heart and mind. So let’s just say that that is the point of this whole blog entry — my restlessness. Once again, I am feeling these rumblings inside me, and I think this state I’m in right now is the one causing me to feel so “alive” at this very late hour. Or that can be caused by the fact that I “rested” the whole afternoon today. If not for that phonecall from someone, I would’ve found my body glued to my bed a lot longer than it did. LOL.

    ***

    I’m glad I was able to spend some time with both of them, the two homo sapiens that bring the Unica Hija Club circle to a whole. :D And it’s nice to be able to share the same career and non-career sentiments with old (old as in long-time, haha), trustworthy friends. Well, maybe they’re not exactly the same sentiments but it’s nice to hear about what they’ve been doing and how they’re doing with their own lives. :)

    Okay. It’s one hour later and the weird-but-familiar feeling is starting to die down. I knew blogging was a good idea! Also chatting thru Y!IM and laughing with her has lifted my poor, unfortunate soul a little. haha. An overstatement, mind you. :) Thanks, romzkee! mwahness!

    So that’s it, I apologize for this lame excuse for a blog entry. Heehee. Think of it this way, at least I was able to update. :up:

    God’s Love Letter

    9

    My child,

    you may not know me, but I know everything about you (Psalm 139:1). I know when you sit down and when you rise up(Psalm 139:2), I am familiar with your ways (Psalm 139:3), even the very hairs on your head are numbered (Matt 10:29-31). For you were made in my image (Genesis 1:27). In me you live and move and have your being (Acts 17:28), for you are my offspring (Acts 17:28).

    I knew you even before you were conceived (Jeremiah 1:4-5). I chose you when I planned creation (Ephesians 1:11-12), You were not a mistake, for all your days are written in my book(Psalm 139:15-16). I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live (Acts 17:26). You were fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), I knit you together in your mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13), and brought you forth on the day you were born (Psalm 71:6).

    I have been misrepresented by those who don’t know me (John 8:41-44) I am not distant and angry, but I am the complete expression of love (1 John 4:16) and it is my desire to lavish my love on you. (1 John 3:1) Simply because you are my child and I am your Father (1 John 3:1) I offer you more than your earthly father ever could (Matthew 7:11) For I am the perfect father (Matthew 5:48) Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand (James 1:17) For I am your provider and I meet all your needs (Matthew 6:31-33)

    My plan for your future has always been filled with hope. (Jeremiah 29:11) Because I love you with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3) My thoughts toward you are countless as the sand on the seashore (Psalms 139:17-18) And I rejoice over you with singing. (Zephaniah 3:17) I will never stop doing good to you (Jeremiah 32:40) For you are my treasured possession (Exodus 19:5) I desire to establish you with all my heart and all my soul (Jeremiah 32:41)

    And I want to show you great and marvelous things (Jeremiah 33:3) If you seek me with all your heart, you will find me (Deuteronomy 4:29) Delight in me and I will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4)
    For it is I who gave you those desires (Philippians 2:13)

    I am able to do more for you than you could possibly imagine (Ephesians 3:20) For I am your greatest encourager (2 Thessalonians 2:16-17) I am also the Father who comforts you in all your troubles (2 Corinthians 1:3-4) When you are brokenhearted, I am close to you (Psalm 34:18) As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to my heart (Isaiah 40:11)

    One day I will wipe away every tear from your eyes (Revelation 21:3-4) And I’ll take away all the pain you have suffered on this earth (Revelation 21:3-4) I am your Father, and I love you even as I love my son, Jesus (John 17:23) For in Jesus, my love for you is revealed (John 17:26) He is the exact representation of my being (Hebrews 1:3) He came to demonstrate that I am for you, not against you (Romans 8:31) And to tell you that I am not counting your sins (2 Corinthians 5:18-19)

    Jesus died so that you and I could be reconciled (2 Corinthians 5:18-19)
    His death was the ultimate expression of my love for you (1 John 4:10)
    I gave up everything I loved that I might gain your love (Romans 8:31-32) If you receive the gift of my son Jesus, you receive me (1 John 2:23) And nothing will ever separate you from my love again (Romans 8:38-39)

    Come home and I’ll throw the biggest party heaven has ever seen (Luke 15:7) I have always been Father, and will always be Father (Ephesians 3:14-15)

    My question is, will you be my child? (John 1:12-13)
    I am waiting for you (Luke 15:11-32)

    Love,
    Your Dad. Almighty God
