Daily Devotional – 11/30/16

November 30, 2016 LuckyBe4R Leave a comment

If you own an iPhone, you need to have Max Lucado’s Daily Devotional podcast as it is the perfect way to start the morning. With the podcast being only 1 min, it is short enough that you can fit it in with the hectic morning schedule and at the same time be filled with wonderful insight and encouragement from a Christian perspective on life.

In today’s devotional, Lucado focuses on “today’s problem not necessarily being tomorrow problem”. He goes on to talk about not setting yourself up for failure. Just because your dad was a drunk does not mean you will be one as well! Lucado reminds us to “…stand against the wiles of the Devil” (Ephesians 6:11). The complete verse reads as such in the bible.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

Do yourself a favor, head over to the search button in your Podcast app and subscribe to Max Lucado’s Daily Devotional. For Android or people who would like to listen on their computers your can find then here. Itunes and Mac users can find them here.

Have a blessed morning everyone. May God show his favor in all that you do. -PJSLB

I woke up this morning and saw this post on my Facebook wall. Reading the comments, it seems that a lot of people were suffering cell phone service outages. Some even thought that is was due to a fully SIM and were removing and inserting the sim. This morning, my cousin received this alert from SMART Communications in the Philippines.

Taken today at 9:00 am Philippine time

Taken 2:00 pm Manila time.

Sent this afternoon. Wow spotty service still expected for the next two day.s

Today, Joy Was In My Fathers Voice.

October 29, 2014 LuckyBe4R 2 Comments

My father has been the single biggest influence on my life. He taught me the meaning of being a man. He showed thru his actions that hard work does not mean being able to rest and slack off when you get home. The effort you put in at home should be equal to how hard you worked in the office. My childhood is filled with memories of my dad coming home at 5:30 pm and taking me to the courts to play until 9:00 pm. Never mind if he was tired from a long day at work. He always made me feel like i mattered. This is something i strive to do with my family today. If i can do it half as good as my father, my family will be in great shape. I know how much my father love me. I know how much i love my kids. All the love we have for one another does not compare to the love the lord as for us!!! how great is that!!!

The last few months have been tough. My father has seen his two brothers leave us and be with the good lord above. He tries to be brave but you can hear the sadness in his voice. I want my father to be happy. He deserves to be happy.

About 10 years ago, my father recorded a bunch of songs in english and filipino. When i played his old CD for him, I saw him smile and take joy in hearing them again. It was then i heard happiness in his voice once again. I would like to share is songs with you. Hug your fathers and tell them you love them.

10 Apps That Will Help Strengthen You Christian Faith – DAY ONE

September 7, 2014 LuckyBe4R Leave a comment

Remember the days of writing in a Prayer Journal? You would write down all your prayer requests, concerns and fears, maybe even glue some pictures of items you are dreaming of owning. The idea of having a prayer journal was great but the problem was keeping up with it. Their would always be a moment when you would get lazy to write in it. Even if you were determined to push along and continue the journal with some longevity, you would never be able to backtrack and read what you wrote in the past. It would get overwhelming.

DAY ONE brings the journal writing to the 21st century. With Day ONE you can arrange all your journal entires by subject, date, tags, and even by geographical location. All entries are automatically stamped with the correct time, date, and GPS location for detailed journal writing. By creating various tags you can further organize your journal to your liking. For those who are forgetful, DAY ONE can even send notifications to your phone to remind you to start writing. DAY ONE uses the iCloud system to seamlessly sync your entries to all your iOS devices. You can type on your Mac and continue right were you left off on your iPhone or iPad (iPod as well for those who still have these) which makes your journal ready at your finger tips at all times. You must download and install both the mobile app and the mac app of DAY ONE to use this feature.

I use DAY ONE to write down my walk with God. Its my electronic diary. I use it not only to write down the blessings I have received from above but also write down my concerns and fears. I love writing in my journal when the Lord blesses me in little ways. I may write a quick journal entry or attach a picture of what just happened. We tend to forget the little things that the Lord does for us and by me writing in my DAY ONE journal, I can see (read) all that the good Lord has done. Lately, I have been using DAY ONE to record my walk as i am now use the Resolution Decree from the movie Courageous.
