These Little Wonders

So we're on the last day of the second month and just like last month, there's also a lot to be thankful for. ❤️ Let's begin with the basics - the gift of life and health. 🙂 Despite my frequent visits to the hospital (just like today), I didn't experience anything serious enough to land me on a hospital bed. So I take it as a positive sign that I am truly on my way to healing and wholeness. Thank God for the everyday strength and protection not just for me but for my husband and the rest of our families as well. ❤️ Next is my career. I'm loving my progress at work so far. I am able to finish what I commit and sometimes more. 🙂 I am also grateful to my manager for enrolling me in trainings and workshops that are enriching not just intellectually, but also emotionally. 🙂 Thank God for the gift of work and the opportunities to grow in the different aspects of life. ❤️ And of course there's the beautiful gift of marriage (and relationships).

If your willpower has failed you on numerous occasions, then it's time to turn your weaknesses over to God. If you've been having trou

I am writing (typing) this with so much joy and gratitude because earlier this week, I went to see my doctor who announced the good news that I don't have the big C. 😍 Actually, one of my proudest moments in January was when this same doctor explained to me the results of my ultrasound and the possibility of me having cancer. My old worrier self would have already cried a river upon hearing it. But by the amazing grace of God, I calmly listened and agreed to have the biopsy done. 💪 The last thing my doctor told me before I left his clinic was, "let's pray it's not malignant." 🙏 Honestly, even before he said it, I was already at the point of total surrender. And because I have entrusted the results to the Lord, I was confident that He would hear our prayer. God knows all the hell I've been through during my last surgery, and I know He knows too well that the last thing I want is to undergo another surgery. God is a God of mercy, and it pains Him too w
