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 self oo nga.. bakit kaya ? sabi nga ni Father JOhn Carlo of Franciscan Friars of Immaculate,Once you are called by God to be hes servant though you say no to him but it will haunt you for the rest of your life... and you will end to a point na your bored na in your job and non sense na ang lahat.. yes, i have a job, i'm happy with my job but why is't that theres still missing in my life... and i found that missing puzzle in carmel... though the road going to carmel is not easy but i dont mind it..i will do everything to be part of this community.. " when God gives a vocation, He also gives us the means and the grace to follow it. But he doesn't say it'll be easy. God uses the storms and conflicts in our lives to make us grow spiritually. As St. Teresa says "Everything is a grace to him who loves God". and i do believe that God will make a way.. i can say No to Gods call for me but deep inside my heart theres still missing and i only found it in Carmel, though i wasn't been able to graduate in college but deep inside my heart i know i will be a good carmelite and im open to god's grace.. as what Bishop Sheen once said that we will never reach God with intellect, for there are boundaries to our knowledge but love, like God, is infinite." i want to follow the footstep of my beloved saint... Saint therese of the child Jesus as i reckon from the book of Mathew 18:3 " I tell you solemnly, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
as st. therese emphasize " little way of spiritual childhood"
to be continued na muna ha pagod na ksi ako eh.. hehehe thnks.. godbless..

Sen. Miriam Santiago defends Bishop from PCSO Controversy

Sen. Miriam Santiago’s declaration that “no constitutional violation” was committed with the disbursement of Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) funds for the purchase of the prelates’ vehicles. “The basic purpose of the grant of public funds is clearly stated on the face of the checks (issued by the PCSO) themselves: ‘purcha se of service vehicles to be used by the diocese in its various community and health programs.’ If there is any benefit to the bishop and the diocese, it is merely incidental,” Santiago said. Santiago blasted parties she said were eager to invoke the Constitution against the bishops when it was the Supreme Court that can decide the constitutionality of the cash grant that allowed the bishops to purchase vehicles. “The COA report said that this action was a violation of the constitutional provision that no public money should be appropriated, directly or indirectly, for the use of any church,” said Santiago, chairperson of the Senate c
