It was days of fellowship, of interaction, of listening, of being part as one of the delegates of the
30th National Youth Conference in San Nicolas, Pangasinan. and wow, it was so beautiful!
Different youths from different places, have attended the National activity. This was my first time to attend one. I was also one of the many favored youths who have witnessed and be part of the ratification of the UMYFP Constitution! Those young leaders really know our Consti (samantalang kami...) were just, sitting, listening, and observing! Hahaha... at least we do the voting! Hahaha... it was a once event, the next ratification would be after 10 long years! Ang galing naman! Before I would be graduating as a UMYFP, napasama pa ako!
And the truth that you were with the youths that came from Apari hanggang Julo! Different languages, dialects, different cultures, different attitudes, different faces, but the best part was, to be one for one sole purpose.
And I pray thee that God will continue to use the UMYFP organization for the further advancement of His Kingdom, to use us, the youths for His ministry, in serving only Him.
CHRIST ABOVE ALL!
Tomorrow is also my sister’s wedding! Ang galing at ang ganda naman ng naging plan ni God! Tomorrow, they will become one.
I didn’t have enough sleep, galing NYC. Tomorrow we will be arranging the decorations for the wedding at the church, and am still looking for quotes that would be shared tomorrow. Maybe this one would suffice.
From the book, Boy Meets Girl by Joshua Harris
“A wedding- a beginning. When you think you’re inlove right now, just wait... for it gets even better. There is so much ahead of you, so much to learn, each day observing just how little you know, but happy because you are learning together. One thing is certain, marriage is a very good thing, a God’s plan for two became one.”
Or from Mike Mason’s book The Mystery of Marriage
“Real love is always fated. It has been arranged before time. It is the mist meticulously prepared of coincidences, and fate, of course, is simply a secular term for the will of God, of coincidences for His grace.”
Your love story was arranged by God! All the coincidence that made it possible were interventions of His grace. Your story was His story.
“Perhaps, after all, romance did not come into one’s life with pomp and blare, like a gay knight riding down; perhaps it crept to one’s side like an old friend through quiet ways; perhaps it revealed itself in seeming prose, until some sudden shaft of illumination flung athwart its pages betrayed the rhythm and the music; perhaps . . . perhaps . . . love unfolded naturally out of a beautiful friendship, as a golden-hearted rose slipping from its green sheath.”
