Thankful Thursday #1



After everything God has been doing in my life, He truly deserves all praises and glory!

1. I praise God for the INTERRUPTIONS-like the problem or the circumstances I didn't plan on or see coming (maybe I could share this next time). I learned to accept that God teaches me that adversity produces maturity.

"Under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do it's work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way." (James 1:2-4 TM)

2. I praise God for resolving the issue of my baby's plight.You see, when I came back to work, he's left to his babysitter again (7:00 am-4:00 pm) but he's not coping well with it. He cried profusely for the whole time and it's my first time to see him howl like that! It truly broke my heart seeing him with all those tears, sweat and snot! His face was reddish and his eyes were swollen from all those crying. He clung to me like he's afraid that I'll leave him again. Oh my baby! I talked to him on why I needed to work, comforted him and prayed that he'll be able to understand and hope that what happened will never happen again. It made me worry a lot but I thank God that he's there to handle my worries.

"Give...your worries...to God" (1 Peter 5:7 NLT) and get busy living the life He gave you to enjoy!

3. I won again!. Though it may not matter to anyone, it does matter to me. Still I praise God even winning contests hosted here in blogosphere. I see a lesson in it. If God is concern of my desire of this little things (which have no value for others), how much more does he cares for my "big" desires, needs and even wants.

"The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want" (Psalms 23:1)

    he will take care of all and some of those interuptions or false starts are his way of saving us from other dilemas. I hope one day when we are in heaven that we actually get to see all that he did for us

Mommy Moments- Hyzyd's playing time

Aside from playing by himself , Hyzyd's fave playmates are his dad and his uncle Bjoy-my bro. He's enjoying every minute of it! Last July 4, 2008, it's Hyzyd's first time exploring the toys in TESCO play station! It isn't yet time for him to play in there for it's recommended for 1 year old and above but he's gesturing to his dad that he want to try on! What a fun he had! We bought that green elephant because the first time he saw it and try on it, he just love it. He will not let go of the poor elephant. You'll see he's riding on it while we're shopping. Head on to Mommy Moments to see other kids enjoying their playing time!

Mommy Moments-Why Hyzvhann Hyzydyll?

The name of our son is Hyzvhann Hyzydyll (read as Hezvan Hezedel). Many are wondering how did we get the name, what does it mean and how to read it. Some jokingly commented that maybe I hate the vowels and some named him the consonant baby...he..he..he. The name was given by his grandfather (my father). We told him that it will be an honor for us if he could give the name of their first grandson. Actually, my father is the one who give us our names-from the eldest (it's me) 'till the 14th child (our youngest). We all have two given names like me I'm named after the combination of my parent's name-Benoni and Geneditha. The result is "Genebei" plus their chosen name for me, Faith = Genebei Faith . I noticed that all of us had great and unique names especially our youngest which is named Doxagennes Keilah . Each of our names has corresponding meanings. Hyzvhann is a modified name of the hebrew vocabulary Heshvan (Cheshvan). Heshvan (Cheshvan) or Mar Cheshvan ...

Mommy Moments-Rain, Rain Go Away!

It seldom rains here and when it rains Hyzyd doesn't have a chance to witness the rain coz we just stay in our bedroom, play, watch movie and sleep! For the sake of this meme ( LOL!), I prayed for rain to come and I'll let my baby witness the outpouring of the rain...Heaven heard my prayer and it came right after we came from school. We watched the heavy rain on our balcony and the baby enjoyed it. It's not yet time for my baby to play under the rain . Enjoy reading other entries about kiddos desire to let the rain go away coz " little Johnny " wants to play at Mommy Moments !
