This is What I Prayed For

Home

December 18, 2024

Today, I feel tired—mentally and physically. My body aches from driving from one appointment to the next, and the weight of everything I have to juggle is starting to press down on me.

But even in this exhaustion, I remind myself: this is what I prayed for.

These responsibilities, these opportunities, these long days—they are answers to prayers I once whispered in hope. This is God guiding me, stretching me, and opening doors for me to walk through.

And when it all gets too overwhelming, I pause. I breathe. I lift it up to God and say, “Thank You.”

Because even in the chaos, I am being shaped for the life I’ve always dreamed of.

Becoming 21 - Still Becoming Office | Louisiana ES - Lourdes Ext.  May 07, 2024 Who am I? It’s a question I’ve carried with me every day for the past 21 years. Some days I think I’ve found the answer. Most days, I realize I’m still searching. Lately, I’ve been making decisions that feel like a turning point — choices that may not make sense to others but feel necessary for me. For peace. For freedom. For growth. The kind of decisions that whisper, “This is your life now — own it.” It hasn’t been easy. This year, I: Chose not to enroll in any college subjects. Declined an exam my mom wanted me to take. Ended a 7-year romantic relationship. Each decision was made with a heart full of fear, but also with a quiet fire of courage. These weren’t acts of rebellion. They were steps toward something bigger: my becoming. I don’t have a backup plan. No safety net. Just faith — in myself, in God, and in the path unfolding before me. People may not agree, but that’s okay. This...

He Still Wants Me to Continue

  He Still Wants Me to Continue Home February 4, 2025 God is nothing but good to me. He knows exactly what my heart holds—every joy, every grief, and every silent cry I try to hide from the world. He sees it all. When 2025 began, I was quietly hoping the weight I carried in 2024 would vanish with the fireworks and new beginnings. But just a few weeks in, I found myself feeling that same gut-wrenching emptiness again. The same hollow ache. And honestly? I was so tired of it. So tired of feeling like I was starting over, only to fall into the same pit. But the only thing that kept me holding on was God . He has a way of reaching me when I’m at my lowest—through a random Instagram post, a Facebook reel, a person I unexpectedly talk to, or even just a sudden moment of silence that speaks louder than any noise. He sends the same message again and again: “You’re not alone. You’re still here. You’re meant to continue.” He knows how often I’ve wanted to give up. How many times I whisp...

  Fries Over Guys  Kabankalan City | Office | SM - Bacolod | La Salle | Home February 14, 2025 Today is a day to celebrate LOVE —and guess what? It’s my first-ever Valentine’s Day as a single woman… and it’s a great day! The day started with a business trip to Kabankalan City with Dad and Ms. Roselyn for a bidding activity. We visited different schools tucked away in the mountainous areas—long drives, winding roads, and scenic views that reminded me how refreshing it is to be out of the usual office routine. There’s something special about being surrounded by nature on a day that celebrates the heart. Back at the office, I surprised my angels with a heart-shaped cake to celebrate Valentine's Day together. The way they devoured it, you'd think love was baked right into it! Their joy made my heart full—it’s moments like these that remind me how love shows up in so many ways beyond the romantic kind. After that, I made a quick detour to SM Bacolod before heading to a meetin...
