L.A.E. - please be kind to me :| please?

applications start on august. yet i still can't find answers if i'd pursue law or not. medyo mabigat pa naman ang 1,300 na exam fee sa bulsa. i'm confused. i'm in between doing something for myself, my future and doing something for my dad.

i'm not in favor of the idea of leaving the PI early 2012. just thinking about it leaves me with an ache in my heart. new environment, new people; adjustments will again be necessary. but i can't deny the fact that i long to be with my dad. after 9 years of being far away i'd really want to thank him by being with him for the upcoming years.

but doing something for myself must also be considered. its been a long time dream and someday i'd really want to serve the public with my knowledge and capabilities.

so please, help me find answers to make the right decision right now. something i won't regret. something i'd be forever happy about. please pray for me.:(

VCF :)

"Abide in me, and I will abide in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abides in the vine; no more can you, except you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing" (John 15:4-5).

well, this is going to be my first time to blog about VCF and comparing the person i was before to what i am now i've realized how going to VCF played a role in making the BETTER person i am now; it still changes me continuously and it molds me to become the "somebody" god wants me to be.

i could remember myself cursing god way back when my parents separated late in high school. whenever i pray i don't literally "PRAY" but i converse with god that if he really exists why make me suffer the burden of having a broken family. i could remember one exact line i say every time i go to church: "why not give me the best in life? you're merciful right? then you don't want your sons to get hurt. just like a father loves his daughters..." i was at the wrong path. i was confused and full of hatred. i neglected god. i let satan in my life.

i went to UST to pursue my dreams of becoming an engineer like my dad. i was at my second year when i found "FALSE HAPPINESS" at partying, drinking and dancing saturday night long. i didn't go to church that time since i slept the whole Sunday. but when i come to think if i was really happy upon this activity of mine i found the gut feeling killing me that the only happiness this brought me was the temporary feeling of being in a crowd that wants to be with you and the noise of music at the background. no silence, the ambiance perfect for you not to feel sadness at all.

i was then invited to VCF ubelt by a friend. and i started to change. because right now i don't go to parties anymore. i don't smoke anymore and i'm saying goodbye to bad habits one by one. i started reading the bible and started embracing god with happiness.  i can't explain why. VCF made me realize my worth; what i am in the eyes of god and the people around me. i know i'm not perfect, i'll never be. but with god's guidance i can be the best of who i am and can make most of what i am right now. CHEERS :)
