My 29th Birthday

It was my 29^th birthday, and it’s the first time we’re celebrating it together as husband and wife, and like we agreed, he took charge and planned the things he wanted us to do. 

As early as 1 am in the morning, he went home from work so that he’ll be the first person to greet me happy birthday.. (Yieeehhh.. Kilig!) I was still sleeping when he arrived and when I woke up, he gave me his surprise birthday cake and greeted me a sweetest happy happy birthday! :)

Hubby's Surprise Birthday Cake

We went to Eastwood Richmonde Hotel Café for lunch. Eastwood Richmonde Hotel was very memorable to us.. The last time we were here was the night before our wedding, and now that we got to step foot here once again as a married couple and all we can say was “it’s nice to be back!”.  It was probably my most favorite restaurant he has ever brought me to.  The ambiance was cozy, and the food was delectable. This place will always be memorable. 

 

Before we end the day, we also watched movie at Trinoma Cinema, our favorite movie house. Hehe! ;p We have so much fun. It’s been a long time we haven’t watch movie in cinema.

And that's the roundup of my 29^th! Nothing grand, just pure quality time, just the way we always like things to be. :)

Very Blessed,

 

Our Heart's Desire

“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” 
~ Psalm 37:4

Percy and I have been married for 4 months now, and we have been actively trying and praying for me to conceive. When there was no sign of a baby the month after we started trying, and much to my frustration, my monthly period still hasn't missed a visit; I’ve felt sad. But we eventually know that it's way too early to be worried and our friends and my office mates told exactly the same thing. 

You know what gives me peace in times like this when I am starting to get frustrated?

It's my FAITH in GOD. God knows the desires of our hearts and God knows how much Percy and I wanted to become parents. And we believe that He is not a selfish God. He is a very generous God. That's why I am very certain that He will bless Percy and me with children. That's what we keep holding on to. When? We don't know. But our faith in Him includes faith in His timing.

We need to wait on the Lord and trust that His perfect timing is the best. Because there is a right time for everything. A right time to do everything, a right time to have a baby! :) Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, “He has made everything beautiful in its time.”

GOD'S TIMING IS ALWAYS PERFECT, it's never early, never late. God's answer to our prayers, maybe to wait for a time before He gives us our desires. Because every gift that comes from God is worth waiting for! :)

When our little baby arrives, we know that His time can never be more perfect. We may not understand why, but the Lord always has His purpose. For now, we will just keep on trying, and we will never stop praying and believing! :)

Remember, God has plans for our life and wants the best for us. He allowed His Son to die so that our sins could be forgiven. In Jeremiah 29:11 it says, 

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

P.S. I believe that the Lord is sending our Little Angel to my womb SOON... :) That's our makulet prayer every night. And we're keep on claiming this greatest blessing in Jesus' name! :)

Excited about God's gift,
