my twelve girls

June 20, 2009

Jesus: Uhmm..Peter, can I ask you something?
Peter: Of course Lord! You can ask me anything You want =D
Jesus: Do you love me?
Peter: Whoa! Of course Lord! I do love you, with all my heart. = )
Jesus: Okay. ^^ Then feed and take care of my sheep. ^^
I love the Lord. There's no question about that. I'm reading His Word. I'm talking to Him from time to time. I'm singing songs to Him.
But, it's not just like that. He said that I should feed and take care of His sheep to prove my love for Him.

Loving the Lord = loving His people

So the Lord gave me twelve lovely girls to be taken care of. = ) Here they are:

1. Zandy - the talented one. She knows how to sing, dance and act. She's the most maka-"ate ayi" in the group. She's also a cry baby, hehe. She often cries whenever she's touched by the Spirit during praise & worship and Word (mana saken,hehe) hardworking cell leader ^^ (kahit baha, sumusugod paren) one of the persecuted one (ang lulupet ng struggles) . But still chose to continue her service with the Lord. = )

2. Rhoda - the shy type? No. She's not really ashamed of everything. "nahihiya ako ate ayi" is just her favorite line, hehe. But she's the first one to testify in our macronet. ^^ She just needs more confidence about herself. The most secretive girl in the group (pero konting pilit lang,sasabihin ren pala,hehe)the campus cell leader. ^^ She's winning her classmates for the Lord.= )

3. Hanna - the bassist (galing noh?). The "bunsoy" in the group,hehe. I witnessed her "pagdadalaga". She loves yellow so much. She loves to suggest ideas. And it is a great help for me. The inloved one. haha! Because she already met her prince charming (oh well, I'm still praying about them, hehe) I'm proud of her coz' now she's having her cell group again.= )

4. Aina - the most "kikay" in the group, hehe. She's actually my cousin. ^^ She's dreaming big and aiming high about her future. Showbiz girl, hehe. The not-so-talkative-one. But she tried to win our other cousins for the Lord = ) and now, she's praying to have a cellgroup again. = )

5. Ate Grace - my future sister-in-law. ^^ The good listener. She has a very receptive heart. ^^ She's always willing to learn and admit what's not right about her. ^^ She loves photography. She smiles and laughs often. She's currently a post encounter student. I can see that she's growing, in terms of her relationship with the Lord. = )

6. Trudy - my high school friend and classmate. I believe that abbey (her bf, my church mate) was an instrument for her to know the Lord.^^ She has a beautiful voice. She's very vocal about what she feels. She's very open about herself. She tells me everything. (I guess? hehe) the giver. She loves to treat other people. ^^ She's now entering school of leaders 1. And I can see the Lord's move in her life. = )

7. Angel - the serious type in the group. The consistent one in making journals, hehe. She is a potential writer. I love her deep insights. She acts as if she's the eldest among the other girls. I can rely on her coz' she's responsible enough to handle the task I've given her. She often gets sleepy, hehe. I thought I'd lose her, coz she had a plan transferring to other church. But the Lord never allowed it, she stayed. = )

8. Cherrymae - she's my "inaanak",hehe. She looks quiet. But she's not, hehe. She loves to talk and tell stories about herself, her classmates, etc. She used to like "emo" stuff, hehe. She loves music. She's bubbles in the powerpuff girls (I’ll introduce the others later, hehe) She's only 13yrs old but she's currently in school of leaders 2.^^ and soon she'll be a cell leader. = )

9. Kazemere - the quiet type in the group. But she once played the lead role in our mini theatre presentation. ^^ She's also consistent in reading the Bible and prayer of three. She's a very loving "ate" to her younger siblings. She's blossom in the powerpuff girls, hehe. She's also in sol 2. And soon to be a cell leader = )

10. Adelyn - the undiscovered song bird, hehe. She sings well. She's always copying the new songs in the church and learns how to sing it. The quiet and shy type look. But the one who jumps first and "nakikipagkulitan" every praise and worship. She's buttercup in the powerpuff girls,hehe. She's in sol 2 and a future cell leader = )

11. Joanna - the dancing princess. She's new in the group and yet the most talkative, hehe. She's currently a post encounter student, but she brought many of her friends to church and in our cellgroup. (nakakabless talaga!) She loves to take pictures of herself and her friends. (mana saken?haha). I believe that she'll win more souls for the Lord = )

12. Laica - the newest of my girls. But she's willing to serve the Lord. Actually, she's bringing most of her friends too during our net celebrations. she is scheduled for EGW this coming august and I pray that she'll continue walking with the Lord.= )

That's my twelve. = ) Thank God for them. I can't handle them all by myself,(read my blog before this, you'll see there how difficult it is for me, hehe) I need the power of the Lord of course. It takes a lot of love, time and effort to handle these girls. A very deep devotion with the Lord is the main requirement to take care of them. They are not yet perfect. So do I. But we all do have the same purpose, goal and vision. To love God above all. To love people. To win souls for Him. To make disciples.

Jesus: Do you love me Ayi?
Ayi: of course Lord. I love you so much.
Jesus: okay. Then devote your life in discipling and loving them. = )
