My Chiana


I have a dog named Chiana and she is a female Pomeranian. She may only be  12 pounds. She thinks she's a lot bigger than she really is, but I don't have the heart to tell her.


I usually take her to this park called Ben Geren and there are trails for walking and for biking in these woods.


One day we went off the bike trail and walked in between this clearing with woods on both sides and about nearly 100 yards away I saw 5 or 6 deers. 
Well, it didn't take Chiana to take off and go after them. Of course I went after her, but since I have asthma, I couldn't run as much. By the time I got
there, Chiana and the deers were no where in sight. She went in the woods
after them and I spent probably 10 minutes or so calling her name.


It was getting a little bit dark, but I could still see. A few minutes later, Chiana finally showed herself all out of breath. I was upset at her, but relieved that she showed up. As we made our way out of the woods, I held 
onto her leash and never let go because I didn't want to go through that again. I just don't want to be attacked by asthma because of the silliness of my little dog, Chiana.By the way, this isn't the first time she's done this.


A brave little dog who I still haven't had the heart to tell her she's not as big as she thinks she is.

It's my faith that sustains me.

The Bible says that at least we have a faith like mustard seed. Mustard seed is a small grain, yet when it grows it becomes big. The small mustard seed was a parallel on how our faith grows. I was just a new Christian that had a hunger and thirst to know Jesus. I met Him in an un-expected place. The time I invested to know Him was not in vain. By the time I needed  His divine mercy and guidance, He used people of different nationalities at different locations and time.

I was on my death bed in one of the clinics in Paris as I was given only 10 days more to live. But His words gave me life as I was reading the Bible. He also used people to send me His messages. He used the owner of the clinic to BE A CHANNEL OF FINANCES. And He used my French doctor to keep me alive. God is an artist. God is an administrator. God is a giver. God is a miracle working God. God is all in all.

The verse that hit me most is Isaiah 60:1- Arise,shine for your light has come. I asked God what does this mean. I was dying and how can I arise when I am in so much pain?  I didn't understand. The second verse that hit  me was the one given to me by my church mate when he called me the evening before the day of my surgery.

  He said, Sister,don't worry.IF God opens the door no one can shut and if He closes the door no one can open.

Those words became Rhema to me. My hope rose to the highest level. My hope is God! He is superior and the sickness is just a peanut to Him. By accepting and believing and putting my trust to Him, the result is my divine healing, my medical bill was paid and I am now enjoying second life to Him both second physical life and my second spiritual life!!!!!!Hallelujah

The unwanted ailment caused me try trading my soul to satan

I was 21 when I felt the pain in my right jaw. I thought it was just a simple toothache. I was working in Zilog Philippines by that time. I just ignored it but I felt I have the fever every afternoon, so I went over to our company clinic again. The company nurse suspected there was something more than the normal  toothache so she gave me a referral slip to take the mandibular X-ray. After I received the result, the doctor explained to me the diagnosis and that I need a major surgery. A situation that I wasn't prepared of emotionally, physically but most of all financially.

At 21, young and full of ambition,  all I have in mind  was to find a good job to start a new chapter in my life as all I have in my heart was to repay my parents' sacrifices in sending me to college. I want a job that can sustain me and as a normal human being, at least I can buy what I want to make my joy complete. I had just started, but I haven't gone too long to my employment. Just I thank God that I was already  a year woking in that company and the medical expenses were paid by the company plus the Industrial manager of the company was from Pangasinan,  same as mine.Motivated by mercy, he was able to approve some finances for my favor so I have an extra fund for my medicine and post operation follow-up and check ups.

The surgery caused me to resign from the company I was working with. I desired to also have a family in the future but the ailment changed my life. Out of desperation, during my solitude,  I was crying out like a crazy person, crying out to God for my healing and when I didn't see the manifestation, I cried out to satan, trading my soul in exchange of the beauty to be restored. Satan didn't reply me. Everyday was like a hell, I was hopeless and thinking to commit suicide out of desperation. God spared me for a reason and I got the chance to go to Paris,France by the help of my sister. From there, I received the saving miracle of God and the miracle of my second life.

To God be the glory!!!!!!!!!!!!!
