God, please take good care of Aoie's dad. Please help him to recover soon. I also pray that Aoie and her family will be given the strength and the comfort that they need throughout the ordeal that they are facing. Thank You for being a Rock that we can lean on in times of trouble.

Thank You for taking care of my grandparents in their old age. I love them very much and I admire them for all that they are and I wish only the best for them--that they may always be safe, healthy, and that they may be lavished with love from family and from You. 
 My mamita will be preparing lunch for me and the family (and Geek!--coz she insisted in meeting him) and I'm definitely looking forward to that. At 80 years old, it must be hard to move around and prepare a  meal for a dozen people, but she manages to find the strength to do it. Please watch over her, God. She loves us so much, and I love her too. :)

Last night I lay in bed thinking of planting and harvest seasons--that God created sunshine and rainfall, and that in life there will be periods of ups and downs, but that it's all natural, and that the sunshine and rainfall are needed to make seeds grow.
Then I recalled a verse in the Bible that says for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap (Galatians 6:7). I started thinking of the kind of seeds I've been planting. That many of my disappointments and setbacks are consequences of harmful seeds I've planted, or perhaps the lack of spiritual seeds being sowed. What do I do with my time? My resources? My abilities? My thoughts? Yes the mind is such a fertile place for seeds of ideas!  Also been thinking that perhaps sowing is not always enough. While there are seeds that may grow in rocks and dry places, most seeds need to be nurtured, they need to be planted at the right time and given ample sunlight and water.  
God, please help me to plant seeds of kindness. Help me to be kind whether in sunshine or in rain--or in heat waves and in storms. Help me God to plant seeds of joy and wisdom and faith and all those virtues that are pleasing to you. Help me to nurture these seeds. Please make these seeds grow. Help me to persevere in planting them and re-planting them and help me to share whatever I reap with others around me. Thank You God. I love You. :)

I didn't think I could make it through this day. Thank You for sustaining me and for showering me with your blessings. For sure, I am not the best that I can be right now, I don't deserve this much, but amen for a generous and loving God. Help me God to lean on you, not on my own strength and understanding, and not on other people either. Please hold me close to Your heart and don't let me go. I love You. Thank You for Your love.
