Carmelite Vocation is a "Magnet Of LOVE" 2



when brother willow told us that if we could go to manila for a live-in xperience with the brothers of carmel and attend a recollection im so xcited coz ive never been to manila and it will be the first time for me to ride an airplane, i was so xcited at that time especially on the 3oth of october. nag half day nga ko noon eh.. sa sobrang xcited ko i cant sleep kasi iniisip ko na ayan na sasakay na ako ng airplane hehehe, medyo nakakahiya pero totoo talaga... im so xcited to go to manila coz ive never been there since time of memorial i told my officemate before na "mamatay nalang tayo pero hindi parin tayo makakapunta ng manila at makasakay ng eroplano" .. for me going to manila is a grace form the lord coz i prayed a lot to our lady of mt. carmel na sana makarating kami dyan, when bro. willow told us that if we could possibly go there and attend the 3 day live in recollection with the borther i was very happy.. but the road of going there is not that smooth, weve been through a lot of trials and suffering.. i went to carmel cebu and wrote a letter to the sisters asking thier prayers so that we could hurdle this big problem that weve been through.. i even talk to mama mary our lady of mt. carmel na if i cant make it, kahit si nelvin nalang para ma xperience nya at masabi din nya sa akin ang lahat ng nangyari at kaganapan sa kanyang xperience... but God is Good all the time.. our LAdy of Mt. Carmel answer my prayer... nelvin bought the ticket and all systems go na kami papuntang manila... pagdating namin sa manila aba.. syempre excited ako first time koya makapunta ng manila hehehe... the brothers in vocation ministry headed by borther willow fetch us at the airport together with with brother jeff... we went to a a fastfood to take our breakfast...syempre gutom na kaya ako hehehe nakakahiya.. but after that we went immediately to the semenary.. xcited ako..
pagdating namin sa semenary saktong2 na nag breakfast na ang mga brothers andun din si father dan, nahihiya kasi we introduce our self... and i was very happy kasi warm na warm yung welcome nila.... and then the rest is history.. hheeheheh hindi...
nag tour kami together with brother wen..
we went to our rooms and have a rest for a while before going to ocds and start our recollections withe the rest of the aspirants.

my Spiritual Purification Through Bro.Joey

we have our recollection and our speaker is brother joey mabborang.. he is an excellent speaker, he's so brilliant a very commendable for a job well done... he tackles about the life and works of saint john of the cross ( NADA - TODO) though he didn't gave us that much brief explanation but, i personally understand everything most especially on the life and Works of Saint Teresa of Jesus, the 7 mansions and etc., and it made me more interested to read the book that brother willow gave us.. thanks by the way bro. willow for your generosity.. bro. joey is a prolific speaker.. he moves me, lalalong lalo na nung sinabi nya na " For other people we are fool, coz we have a job but why are we here? hindi naman tayo medyo pangit pero bakit? we can have our own family and have many children pero bakit? maybe they think that we are fool, ready to sacrifice everything even our love ones but for us we are fool for the love of our beloved, our lord Jesus Christ..." i told my s

Blessed Sunday (My first Online Gratitude Journal Entry)

This is something new for me, as I am not really used to writing and journaling, but I was inspired by the homily of reverend Monsignor Santos a while ago.
