i’m a certified single
november 27, 2006. this is the last day of 13 saturdays of christian life program. finally, i have another accomplishment done. (clap, clap)
the dedication and fellowship started 2pm at hilado’s residence, lizares compound with a mass. of course, i participated actively being a lector. after the mass, the last talk was given by tito popeye locsin on transformation of christ. it was a nice discussion that we even forget that our stomach is already grumbling and shouting for FOOD.
it was full of fun through different participations done by different discussion groups, also–indi man magpapirde ang mga facilitators.
though it ended too late na and considering mahimo pa ko expense report ko when i get back home, we all enjoyed the night that we’re declared as singles for christ.
…and this will be the start of my journey to the community.

i am prepare for whatever happens in the pray over sessions…or let me say, ginpreparar ko na ang self ko para sa empowerment before mag-Saturday. bringing my back my faith–my relationship with my Lord once again through the singles for christ was once a very tough decision for me. why?
1. wala ko na naperform akon duties and responsibilities to God reluctantly
2. honestly speaking, i am not a follower of the ten commandments
3. my faith was not that big enough especially when he took my mom away and this is one thing i am ashame of
4. i limit my prayer time, kung manugtulog lang ko (kay basi indi na ko kabugtaw at least nakapangadi ko)
..though these things happened, i still have a little fear in HIM. maski papaano, we brought up by our parents as God-fearing.
now, now…why i joined? wala ko kabalo. siguro, its not about some friends in the community who invited me. i remembered dud asked me if sigurado ko, even he siguro gadoubt man sang himoon ko. siguro, it was my time to go back and be a servant once again. i was also thinking of the things he had done when mom was in the hospital. he made me realized the miracles nga ginhimo niya..siguro, daw damukulon niya na lang ko to made me realize all of these.
when it was my turn to be prayed over, indi pa ko tani. daw mahambal ko nga pwede sila lang una anay, until nagdecide ko na "ok" na lang. i never felt any sad moments nor cried.
i asked two gifts which i really desire from the start. i dont know if god granted me the gifts i asked, and i know for a fact that he has two answers for me. if yes, then il share and use it to praise him. if no, siguro it was not my time yet to receive those or maybe it really wasnt for me. (for all of us)
after the prayover sessions, the participants were asked to share their experiences. daw isa ka teleserye ang natabo: may drama, comedy, action and even horror. i never do sharing in front of all–(ok, i did talks before but that was way, way back and aside from the discussions made during office meetings and seminars) until i heard voices at the back calling out my name. nagtindog lang ko gulpi without thinking kung ano ishare ko. asta subong, gabother gd ang akon ginhambal sa tunga kay wala gid ko kabalo kung ano na ginpangwakal ko. some say it was a nice sharing–but i dont think so.
anyway, 3 more talks to come and finally the CLP is over but my journey to my relationship with God starts once again.
