lovingly surprised by God, episode 32672

"is it so crazy that I just wanna love you?" — my day trip to Baguio was essentially God telling me this, bolded, italicized

i prayed that my provincial immersion placement would be in Baguio

it wasn't, but the Lord is that much sweeter that the titos and titas in my province brought me along to their Baguio day trip — no service attached

i find it fitting that we went on the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Jesus cuz i didn't know hunger in baguio, not even mere satiation

when filo catholics feast, aw hale they feast

more evidence to support my alternative hypothesis that there's a positive correlation btwn belovedness & a growing waistline

i've def tasted & seen the goodness of the Lord

and the mountains, the pine trees, the cool breeze, the rain all reassured me that i'd be home soon

bittersweet consolation for the final stretch

"is it so crazy that I just wanna love you?"

and this is the extravagant love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus: that He loved us, even to death on the cross, not even to GUARANTEE us Heaven (bc He respects our free will), but to give us just a *chance* at reunion with Him that we *may or may not take* — no promise of our reciprocation or response

Jesus did all that?? He is not nonchalant.

how do u love such an extravagant Lover?

i can hardly wrap my head around it

and praise God He isn't asking me to

kain ka na lang, girl
just eat, girl

okay Lord say less!

sometimes the hardest thing to do is to receive without feeling the need to prove yourself, to pay it back or pay it forward, yet sometimes that's just how the Lord wants us to respond to His love — that we just let Him provide

"Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light." (Matthew 11:28-30, from today's Gospel)

current divine love language: nature & food

thank u Nueva Ecija :)

happy Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 by @naomimallare

"In my deepest wound I saw Your glory, and it dazzled me." — St. Augustine

and if exposing my wounds will reveal God's goodness, i'll do it over and over

10 yrs ago, i couldn't have imagined being this joyful & loved, much less being able to share to 5000+ souls the Reason why

God is good, and He loves you

thank you Mama Mary for giving me Jesus

wait, holiness is all abt being loved?

and only from this can we then really love?

GOD IS SO LOVE

s/o to ate chanell for capturing my most memorable day thus far, when i was at the border between despairing & dreaming (i had the fattest crashout of my life)

i'm still kinda dancing around there tbh

but my heart is slowly catching up to my mind, which already knows — God is good, faithful, and never outdone in generosity

sometimes, all u need is take-out pizza that took 30 mins too long, and friends to enjoy it with :)

it's a lot of heart work out here

and this is the adventure of a life with Christ :)

this isn't as good as it gets. oh hale naw, He's just starting

as believers of an infinite God, WE DREAM TOO SMALL

Unknown roads & known shadows

Today, we were asked to revisit our life verse — which I understand is an overview of my journey with Jesus

I think mine is Isaiah 43:1

"Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name: you are mine."

To those who've asked how I've been recently, I've likely said "fearful yet overjoyed" (cf. Matthew 28:8).

There's much reason to be scared, yet all the more reason to be thrilled.

I don't know where I'm going,

only that I've already been through wound, failure, and valley,

and that the Lord has healed, redeemed, and uplifted.

The Lord is the One who calls me by name from my familiar shadows and onto unfamiliar roads.

He lets me rest by roadsides, yet reminds me — no parking — I'm not meant to stay here. There is so much good to be done, much good to be seen!

He has provided this much thus far.

How much farther will I go with Him and how much more will He provide?

It's like in Narnia — He isn't safe, no, but He is good. And I am His. :')

That's the only thing that got me through this first month, and that's what's anchoring me for the last two.

“To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek him the greatest adventure; to find him, the greatest human achievement.” St. Augustine, Confessions

ALLELUIA.

film pics of the ever-discussed Vic Trip 2025 just dropped, right in time for Easter :]

ofc my fav pic is with my best friend, abby — for many reasons, but particularly because she is unceasingly and increasingly a reminder of Easter for me

what started as an action item from a meeting last year (lol.) turned into a friendship beyond my imagination

i didn't think i'd befriend someone from the island, much less someone who sharpens me in such a personal and precise way

i didn't think i'd vibe check and pray about an unlikely group of 8 to visit said island, strengthen bonds already forged, and discover hidden connections (uhh can we hide them again? jk)

i didn't think that they'd help me understand God in ways i thought i already knew 🧠 but didn't actually really know ❤️‍🔥

i think it's safe to say that our friendship has brought people closer to themselves, each other, and God

one knows a tree by its fruits, and i know this tree is freakin good!

when abby and i reflect on our friendship, gratitude is the dominant and consistent conclusion

It's a reminder to both of us that God leaves no desire unrealized, even when we sweep them under our rugs of safer expectations

He leaves no dream neglected, even when we forget them in the process of being more realistic

He answers them in full, in abundance, to the detail, with surprises

He is a promise keeper

He is faithful

It is simply who He is

and when i think of Easter, it can be explained as the day God did what He said He would do (die & rise again)

it's the day He showed the fullness of His faithfulness and the depth of His love

death isn't the end, rather /life/ — life anew, life abundantly (if we so choose; cf. John 10:10)

as i look forward to the next 49 days of Easter, i can't help but feel an eager anticipation

He does what He says He's gonna do, often in ways that surprise me, floor me, make me laugh, make me cry

what will He do next?

He will do even greater things still

trust & hope, come & see

"He who did not spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, how will he not also give us everything else along with him?" Romans 8:32

HAPPY EASTER FRIENDS. ALLELUIA! by @naomimallare

GOD IS SO LOVE, SO DARE TO HOPE

my jubilee year thru themes & lessons

—

context: drawing from Leviticus 25, the Church celebrates "Jubilee years" every 25 years — years of special graces, focusing on restoration, and in 2025, hope, in particular

u can imagine my confusion when i often felt disappointment & despair more than hope

the trenches were deep, long, frequent, & overlapping — many making me feel like my soul was going thru open-heart surgery, and i was conscious

at the same time, none of my crashouts felt complete

there was always a silver lining, a safety net, a Father's embrace

the rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted my peace, but it didn't collapse because it was set solidly on rock, on the unchangeable reality that He is Emmanuel, "God is with us" (cf. Matthew 7:24-25; Mt. 1:23)

by God's grace, thru every trench, i could cling onto the hope that "we who watch for that day/may inherit the great promise/in which now we dare to hope" (Preface I of Advent) — the hope that one day, i could experience The Eternal Summit, where "there shall be no more death or mourning" (Revelation 21:4)

even on this first day of 2026, the feast day of Mary, Mother of God, we hear our reason for hope:

"God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to ransom those under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. As proof that you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out, 'Abba, Father!' So you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then also an heir, through God." (Second Reading, Galatians 4:4-7)

thank u Mama Mary!!! thank You Holy Trinity !!!

"and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us" (Romans 5:5)

Jesus took on flesh & died for us to give us a second chance to redeem The OG Fumble, to become beloved sons & daughters of the Father — THIS IS JUBILEE.

22 years & some, balancing untidy loving

Peter walking on water:

"Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught him, and said to him, 'O you of little faith, why did you doubt?'" (Matthew 14:31)

"The deliverance was first; then the gentle rebuke; and that probably with a smile on his face and love in his voice." (Fulton Sheen, Life of Christ)
