Just wanted to say congratulations for a successful conference last Saturday! Sorry this is a little bit late, but hey better late than never. I also would like to say that I really had fun spending time with all you guys, especialy the youth -- you guys are great!!! Can't wait to see you guys again. Well I guess that's it for now, take care and God bless.

Wasup everybody!

Well, as all of you have probably.. Most likely heard... Conference is around the corner... To be exact it's on November 10...

And we need your service brothers and sisters... So I urge all of you to take advantage of this great opportunity to worship God with willing hearts in helping out.

Highlights:
Fun people... God, Jesus, CFC, SFC, YFC, KFC, Ryan Mac)
Entertainment... 2 dances
Great view... you'll be making it (props... get it? props!)
Praise and worship through willing hearts
Food... well... I dunno... But most likely Aquafina water? Haha...
Meet people from Indiana and California
Meet the infamous full timer Jhoanne Sy a.k.a. "sisTER"
God... God... God.... God... God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who's invited?
Everyone is invited... Everyone and their moms... but since I'm from west south.... I'm urging all the brothers and sisters in that area, especially, to participate... I really am convinced that God has a desire for us to learn more about His Son Christ by the willingness to obey knowing that the conference is His will.... You feel me? It's a great way to give back... Jesus has given us a lot already.

"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do (sleep, dance, make stuff, go to F.A.C.T., etc...) Do it all for the glory of God" 1 Corinthians 10:31

I know some of yous are going to F.A.C.T. conference in Champaign... Why? Maybe cause your friends are there... blah blah... but how about your best friend in Christ??? j/k... You guys can still go... But maybe look at it this way... "sacrifice", denying "my" desire to enjoy and or relax for the weekend so I can do whatever I can to help out?... F.A.C.T. is fun and all... and it's about Pinoy pride... being able to come together in one place to do whatever... I say this weekend... being that we are privileged citizens of heaven... let's have "Christian pride"... You gets??

But if you must go... then have a great time.... be an awesome witness... don't "blend in" too much to everyone around you... cause in the Bible... a lot of times the "crowd" was always wrong.

Geez.... I know this is a lot of things to say... And I know even for myself it's a lot to read... and a lot to suck in.... I am a hypocrite... I wanna go to F.A.C.T... But, like I said.. I'm taking advantage of this weekend... I wanna give to Him that deserves it... I've been feeding my own selfishness for quite some time. It's never too late for me to reestablish whom I serve. (Me or God?) But like I said earlier... If you've got other plans... Then serve God there as well.

It is most definitely... a privilege... and on Saturday... I want everyone to say it's a mighty fine day to serve the Lord.

Is that all... yea... for now... hehehe.. But I love you all... promise... I dunno what it is .... I just hope it'll never fade... God bless and take care!

Practice again?
yea!
how time flies when we're having a blast...
well, it's still at st. hyacinth... so far the blocking has been finalized... yay!

notice: (ever think how it's weird that "notice" is not and ice when separated? i just did hahah)

first off, thanks sooOoOoo much for you guys that's been coming faithfully to practice... i know that it's not so easy to be devoted in to coming to practices and all that... but just know that if we can continue to offer our time up to Him... He will in turn be glorified... and that's what matters. RIGHT? with the right heart, i know He is pleased.

secondly, i'm soOoooO thankful for these times. why? because He is really molding my heart... left and right God's been testing me... and almost ALL the time i fail.... aaaaarrrgh. kinda makes me cringe, knowing how much i fail Him and yet i can still be a part of building up His kingdom. you might think it's just dancing or what not... but still... how can He let me be in this spot? you feel me? i'm soOoOoo not worthy. and i know a lotta of you can testify to that... i do not practice what i preach. i cling on to God's grace... but in all sincerity, i feel indebted all the more... God has used this weekend to really put me on check... promise! i found myself being wrong most of the time, from the small things to the big mistakes i do... He's opened my eyes to see, giving me a chance to reflect on how i live my life... who i live my life for... me or God... and what sucks is i know that i can't say that i do live for God all the time -- but i know that He's planting seeds along the way... Thanks God.

thirdly, the same story of how He's letting us really take advantage of this event... to really give back to Him, not because we're great dancers or that ate deeds has hand picked us. nope... but by free will, choice, we don't have to... it's an open invitation to give back, like an option... or extra credit... am i making any sense?? hahah, i didn't think so. but you know, free for grabs... how many chances do i get a chance to dance for God's will instead of mine in clubs? hahahha... and i've taken it -- i love to dance and i want to serve God by something that i like doing! whoo-hoo!

so, you're asking... why is he talking about all of this?

i say... i dunno... it's just cause i'm experiencing God's grace... none of us can ever grasp the true meaning of the word... but we all have felt it. i did this weekend... last friday night especially... this morning... and i have no doubt that tomorrow it'll be waiting for me. i wanna boast... not about me... but about Him. you feel me?

so thanks again for everyone that's been coming to practices... keep worshipping. and to everyone else i say the same. wherever you may be, keep worshipping.

payce: "God does not look at the outward appearance... He looks at the heart..." wanna go to practice? to paint??? to watch??? to dance??? no! but to worship... forgetting what lies behind and accepting who i really am... and knowing that i need Him... and in turn i wanna give back for the love and forgiveness he's given me. thanks God!
