It's My 44th Birthday 🎂 Praise God for His Faithfulness👍🙏👍

Good evening everyone here. Today is my birthday and just like any ordinary days, I celebrated it with my family. As if I have a choice hahaha we're on lockdown.😁 I praise God for my eldest Chauncey she volunteered to cook the spaghetti for me. She cooks so well and yeah absolutely better version of me when it comes to cooking. She nailed it! So sad though I forgot to take a photo to include it here.😥

I wanted to look like this one day when the time comes for me to marry again someday hahahaha wishful thinking! 👍😂👍

Anyway just to give you all an update how my day and I praise God because of the overwhelming greetings from my FB friends all around the world. I was overwhelmed with the many warm greetings. As of this writing I just finished replying to each and every comments and wall posts. It was one of the best birthdays I have ever had, in spite of this pandemic. Many greeted me thru text messages some called me others video called and some others thru chat and private messages. I praise God for each and everyone of my friends online and offline. Covid 19 did not stop them in remembering my special day today.

So I want to give thanks to all of you here specially to those who have always, always been unselfishly supporting me and giving me the boost I need to keep going with my journey in this platform. I praise God for your lives and for your love.

I woke up at 8am this morning and kneeled down to give praise and thanks to our good Lord in heaven for blessing me another year. I praise God that I have 2 wonderful daughters and parenting them is challenging and also rewarding. I praise God for my supermom who always see the good in every bad situation. She may be a person with
disability (pwd) but she lives a life with joy. Sa kanya ako kumukuha ng lakas ko lalo na pag ako ay nauubos na. She's a mild stroke survivor and we love her. I praise God for my stable work because I get paid in spite of the lockdown. We will resume going to the office after the holy week. I praise God for my brother he may be thousand miles away from us but we keep in touch everyday. He is in Saudi Arabia. He's asking me to help him to come home because his salary is super delayed. I inquired at the office about immediate repatriation but too bad the lockdown got him stuck there for a while. I praise God for every person who pray for me and my family I ask God to bless them more.

I know that I can never outgive God. We can never do that. God is a good and merciful God. He knew everything about us and He gives it even before I ask. I couldn't help but cry at times because of His faithfulness in my life. I fail Him everyday but His mercies are new every morning. I ask Him to teach me to rise my song to Him especially when temptation comes my way. And when I can not stand I fall on Him. Jesus He is my hope and stay.

I want to end my birthday post tonight with this song: Lord I Need You.

Lord, I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart
You're the One that guides my heart

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

Where sin runs deep Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
Where You are, Lord, I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

So teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
When I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus your my hope and stay
