About Me

a combination of blue and green eyes. the left one is green (the other one is blue?...) i like batman. i hope he likes me, too. i am a member of the coolest family ever because of the coolest Father. when i was young, i wanted to become a pilot of an F-22. then i wanted to be in the Phil Military Academy. Then to become a priest (but realized was too bad to become one)... then i realized that i really can't be good, even if i become a priest. i just wanted to become an enginer then, though i do not know exactly what they do then. and so i ended up with a degree in business administration. and now i work as a programmer. how, oh, how did i end up here (or what tommorow may bring), i'm not sure. what i'm certain is this, that the Hound of Heaven will never stop to pursue me, until i become that person He intended me. both for His glory, and my ETERNAL welfare. and that ETERNAL word, starts today...

    Munimuni ni Hobbes

    Posted by h0bb3s at 09:24 PM on October 20, 2005.

    "So cause me to be so in love with you that my highest joy is to see you honored. I want to be so swept off my feet by the dazzling beauty of your holiness that I recoil in horror from the smog of the world; so captivated by the perfection of your ways that I would rather suffer a martyr’s death than experience the exquisite pleasures of sin." ~ by Grantley Morris

    His sake

    Posted by h0bb3s at 11:09 AM on October 25, 2005.

    When you are in a difficult place, realized the Lord either placed you there or allowed you to be there, for reasons perhaps known for now only to Himself... [His glory will be shown when the right time comes to deliver you from that place. Trust in Him. For His glory, for His name's sake, He will make a way out, even if He has to split the sea to do it for His children...] ~ Robert J. Morgan

    From a song

    Posted by h0bb3s at 11:14 AM on October 25, 2005.

    I know You had me on your mind



    When You climbed up on that hill



    For You saw me with eternal eyes While I was yet in sin

    Redeemer Savior Friend





    Every stripe upon Your battered back

    Every thorn that pierced Your brow



    Every nail drove deep through guiltless hands

    Said that Your love knows no end



    Redeemer Savior Friend



    CHORUS:

    Redeemer, redeem my heart again



    Savior, shelter me from sin

    You’re familiar with my weaknesses



    Devoted to the end

    Redeemer Savior Friend



    from the song "Redeemer Savior Friend"

    Better Than I

    Posted by h0bb3s at 09:43 AM on October 26, 2005.

    Better Than I
    by David Campbell

    I thought I did what’s right
    I thought I had the answers
    I thought I chose the surest road
    But that road brought me here

    So I put up a fight
    And told you how to help me
    Now just when I have given up
    The truth is coming clear

    You know better than I
    You know the way
    I’ve let go the need to know why
    For you know better than I

    If this has been a test
    I cannot see the reason
    But maybe knowing I don’t know
    Is part of getting through

    I try to do what’s best
    And faith has made it easy
    To see the best thing I can do
    Is put my trust in you

    For You know better than I
    You know the way
    I’ve let go the need to know why
    For you know better than I

    I saw one cloud and thought it was a sky
    I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
    But it was you who taught that bird to fly
    If I let you reach me will you teach me

    For You know better than I
    You know the way
    I’ve let go the need to know why
    I’ll take what answers you supply
    You know better than I

    A desire to desire

    Posted by h0bb3s at 12:07 PM on October 26, 2005.

    "There is a man and I know him well (he is the husband of my wife and father to my sons) who wakes up in the morning and looks up into heaven and says, "You are worthy to be glorified today, Lord, but there is in me - that is in my flesh, no good thing. I have no strength, no wisdom, no resolve to do good but what comes undeserved from you, O God. And I love you. It would be to my greatest fulfillment, my highest pleasure, my richest treasure, my popcorn and my chocolate ice cream if at the end of this day I could believe that someone has come to cherish Your power and wisdom and love more intensely because of me. God, let it be." ~ John Piper

    sorrow

    Posted by h0bb3s at 03:38 PM on October 26, 2005.

    is there any other word than sorrow that would cause your eyes to dim... any other word that would cause your eyes to shut and decide to never open it again...

    ah, sorrow, and what it brings.

    a mask that someday will be removed to reveal that smile in my eyes, and in my heart.

    and when that mask is removed, words will not be enough to express the difference...

    itong si enya kasi e... ung boses nya parang gusto n akong kunin

    i learned...

    Posted by h0bb3s at 01:05 PM on October 27, 2005.

    i learned...

    1. that God could have taken all the challenges in my life, but did not choose to. Because life then will be too banal, too common, and too plain that it becomes too predictable, living has lost its appeal.

    2. that resting may not necessarily mean six feet below the ground, but peace and assurance that the Shepherd's great plan is not abandoned.

    3. that pride and shame have the same parents. the former seeks to be found. the latter to hide. pride says "i'm too good for Him." shame says "i'm too bad He  cannot possibly love me." both are lies. both has the same effect. both seeks to keep the Father away. (thanks for this max)

    4. that though i may not know all the answer, i will not be asked all the questions either.

    5. that though there is no answer yet, it doesn't mean i wasn't heard.

    6. that when i was answered back, it can be satisfying enough to realize that i asked the wrong question.

    7. that it's a "no-no" to eat ice cream when there's rain outside, the month ends with a "ber" and the air-conditioning unit of the office is at it's best working condition. (that must be the reason why it's too darn cold here. hmm...) and finally

    8. that it's far easier to remember things when teling the truth.
