I just came fresh from a three day youth discipleship conference and I feel the spiritual fullness and it feels so great, I feel so energized.
I had bitter and sweet realizations.
The messages opened my eyes to these realizations in my life.
I cried while walking on my way home, alone in a remote provincial road from my children ministry.
I cried coz I realized vital things. One speaker talkedof stewardship, and I took it so hard and realized that i was not a goo steward with my life. There so many opportunites, time and relationships wasted and for me its bitter coz I know I could no longer do anything about it.
But there's no use crying over spilled milk, know the Lord is not through with my life yet, and I praise God for His guidance and for using people to guide me. Its sweet because I still have time to do beeter and to do the best for the Lord.

Good for you that you have come to this realisation! 
Be strong and live your life to the fullest, and the most important thing is to live it well and do everything without any regrets!
Well, take care and may the Lord bless!

That turning point when we are aware that we can move to the next level, is very emotional..I remember many times when I was ready to let go of something in my life and have that chance to grow, was worth the tears, and the cleansing made me much stronger...

Its something that we should put our heart. I wasted so much time doing senseless things but now I am ready to give it my best shot.

True conviction of God's purpose will bring regrets when we are not in line with His will. It is sweet to know that we can always have a new start with Him.

Yes, and as I recall while walking on that lonely road, it brought tears to my eyes, even when I already borded the jeepney for home. There thougths came like river from my head, but I didnt have time to write them all.

Yes, and I hope and pray that it will not remain a realization but I hope to couple it with actions and really do it for my love for God.

The Lord never closes a door on us for as long as we seek His guidance and ask for His blessings. There are just many opportunities for us to make up for the loses in the past and I know, with His loving care we'll all succeed. Keep up the good work and have faith in your heart.
