I want to be a politician

I want to run in elections, at least even once in my life. Maybe, I could start from being a councilor, then congressman, then senator. Right now, if I am really serious into doing this, I should be active in the city's activities and the party I am joining so that in three years, I would have gained the much needed experience I need to run for office. Let's see where this will end?

How do you sell?

I have only one question to make. How do you sell? If I am about to embark on this new role, job, mission, I must really learn how to sell? My goals are to help my family, to have respect for myself, for others to have respect on me and my job and to be financially stable. I hope by doing freelance work in sales, I get to learn the ropes of selling and at the same time achieve my goals. I have financial goals and I do expect to get them. Talk about great expectations! The important thing is I learn my lessons as I get into these kinds of roles. Sure do hope to have a fulfilled life living the dream of becoming a salesman.

Collecting friends

Collecting friends is a happy habit. Just like in facebook, the more friends you have, the merrier. Sharing friendships is a good thing. It makes life worthwhile. You can do lots of fun activities when you have lots of friends. Delight yourselves in the company of your good friends. Be in company with your friends so that you wouldn't be lonely. Go out once in a while to connect with friends. Share with them your experiences. Do things that are fun doing together. And most of all, share some of your secrets and problems and share the best times you have with your friends. After all, that's what makes life fun, having friends.

Give us this day our daily bread

Work is fun. It is a means of God to feed us, to give us our daily bread, to find money, to earn our keep, to nourish us and keep our bodies healthy and for us to share with one another His blessings. I believe the world is full of blessings, it's not just properly appropriated. What if you're caught in the middle of life and you suddenly need money, where will you get your money? This is where good financial management comes in. This is what I aim for in my life entirely. That not even once in my life would I have a great dire need for money or resources to sustain me or my family. Opportunities really come our way, it is just a matter of praying a lot, totally depending on God, and exerting effort, totally relying on ourselves too. How can we say that we are finally nourished, once the blessings come trickling in. I go day by day, by God's providence. I believe I will make sales transactions in my future. I have to believe it or it may not happen. I know God will provide. The funny thing is, my imagination doesn't allow me to imagine these business thoughts unlike in writing, I can readily conceptualize it in my mind, so that makes it hard and tricky for me. But I believe that God has His ways of providing us and what we just have to do is not to lose hope but forever raising our hands and catching whatever blessings He may shower upon us. In the sermons I have heard this week and the last week, I have heard about loneliness and trust in God. God is in control. We shouldn't worry. We shouldn't even care so much as in to distrust His guidance and providence. God in His infinite goodness wants to shower us with blessings and give us whatever we need in our lives. All He wants is for us to change and be good sons and daughters of Him. We should be good to our neighbors especially when there seems to be nothing for us. That's the time we learn the need of others. So that when our time of abundance comes we will be able to share whatever we have with those who are in need. Then, it is our turn to help others. For those who have two coats, may they give the other one to those who have none. If this is the attitude of every human being, then there would be no one in want, no one in need, no one to go hungry. There would be a balance of resources in the world and everybody will be happy, every need would be met. There wouldn't be beggars and scavengers to be pitied. It would also add meaning to life because we share. We do something good for others, for God. And we will be at peace! May each one do his share to share a coat, a plate of food, a glass of water to those who need it. May God bless the world, with so much love in return.

The desire to be rich

I desire to be rich. I guess I am hungry for some money. I need to be employed or have a business. I look forward to the blessings that will come my way. I need to put in mind the needs of my family and myself and so I have to practice seeing myself as a worker for money, for God's providence. I hope God will answer my prayers soon.

Doing God's will

What is God's will for you? How do you find out if it is God's will? If your heart beats for it, then it is God's will. If your mind thinks about it, it is God's will. If your spirit agrees with it, with all its goodness, then, it is God's will. For me, it is easy to find out what is God's will. I love my family and so it is God's will that I love my family and that I serve them. Plus, I have this desire in my heart to provide for them financially which I know the grace of our Lord is gonna provide soon. I also support them spiritually with prayers, and emotionally with my company. All the rest, I spend time with my friends even though it is only online. The simple life is so much better. I have some desires in my heart which I look forward to doing in the future but in the moment I am patiently waiting for them to come true. Like having all the things that I want and helping other people who may have a greater need than I am.

Get away with the bumps

Life is sometimes full of troubles. Sometimes, you can not get life perfectly. It had to have some problems. And so, if these problems are unavoidable then you just have to do with them and learn how to manage your tasks with the problems at hand. Problems are there to challenge you and make you grow. They are there to help you grow into an improved personality that you can be. They are there to help you reach your full potential. You cannot have life and not have any problems at all. All you need to do is to have the habit of managing yourself with all these problems present and just solve them to make you a stronger person. You cannot have your day sometimes without a problem arising and so you must adjust, you must solve, you must adapt. Problems are opportunities for growth. Once there is a problem, there is a hidden opportunity for you to learn something out of it. God gives us these problems so that we may grow to be the person that God wants us to be. He is perfecting us by the problems that we face. As gold is tested by fire, so does the heart of man tested by God. Let us be happy that God molds us into the perfect persons that we ought to be in His sight, someday when it is time for us to go back to Him.
