I have taken the Strengths Finder Assessment years ago and since then, I’ve been wanting to explore further and understand how I can leverage my “natural talents” better. It has always been on my mind but I really didn’t act on it until this year when I re-read the book. I also recently discovered that there’s a Strengths Finder community in the Philippines. I attended the recent meet up last weekend. They were offering $9.99 discount on the CliftonStrengths 34 so I made time for the meet up. [Read more…] about CliftonStrengths 34

Bible Study 2018 – Week 21 Learnings
I’m struggling but I’ll carry on. I hope this is only a phase. I’m wishing that seeking the Lord this year won’t make me walk away from being a Christian for good. In my mind, I would wish that knowing Him and seeking Him will make my faith in Him stronger as ever. I’m praying that I won’t walk away from my faith. I only have half-a-year left with this journey to knowing God more. [Read more…] about Bible Study 2018 – Week 21 Learnings
Bible Study 2018 – Week 20 Learnings
As the year passes by, I noticed that my eagerness to read the Bible is diminishing. I tend to find it too boring. I know my goal to understand Him by reading the Bible is wrong in a way that I’m seeking to learn and not to worship. But I believe that in order to worship, you need to understand so you get to feel and experience Him. I will continue to work on finishing reading the Bible. Hopefully, I’ll start focusing more on the Lord versus worldly things. I’m not doing so well so far but we’ll see. [Read more…] about Bible Study 2018 – Week 20 Learnings
The Four Tendencies
I’ve long been curious about the Four Tendencies Framework. This is one developed by Gretchen Rubin, the author of The Happiness Project. Gretchen Rubin together with her sister has a podcast that I listen to everyday. They talk about the Four Tendencies a lot. I do have a hunch already based on their talks what tendency I have. However, it would be nice to confirm it by taking the quiz myself. [Read more…] about The Four Tendencies
Black Butterfly
Black Butterfly has been released since May 2017 but I wonder why it’s only showing now in the Philippines. Anyhow, I’m glad I caught the movie today. If there is one word to describe Black Butterfly, I would say unpredictable. [Read more…] about Black Butterfly

Bible Study 2018 – Week 19 Learnings
Our Bible Study group’s topic for the past few weeks is about being a new man. This means that we focus on the Christ and remove everything about our natural life (culture, race, gender, nationality, etc). This is a struggle but I believe that as I install more and more God in my daily living by reading His word and praying, I will get there. We, as Christians, will be able to fulfil God’s goals.

Bible Study 2018 – Week 18 Learnings
A couple of days ago, I shared with churchmates my struggle about my spiritual life. I confessed that I’m reading the bible with a student mindset. One comment struck me. The comment was I needed to try pray-reading. You know what? I’m going to try that. I must admit that I should be more prayerful. I’ll try that approach starting week 19.
