How Great is our God

One of my favorite Christian song that really uplift my spirit whenever I hear this. The powerful song that captivate our hearts to more Trust & love our GOD. Two of the wonderful man sing this song..both humble, Godfearing, blessed & not to mention a good looking one hehe :-) Yup they are my ultimate crush..#FanGirlMode :-)

May the Lord Bless you both and may continue to Glorify our God in  everything you do :-)

Follow them :

Alden Richards - @aldenrichards02

"How Great Is Our God"

The splendor of a king
Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice
All the earth rejoice

He wraps Himself in light,
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
Trembles at His voice

How great is our God
Sing with me
How great is our God
And all will see
How great, how great is our God

Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end
Beginning and the end

The Godhead Three in One
Father, Spirit, Son
Lion and the Lamb
Lion and the Lamb

How great is our God
Sing with me
How great is our God
And all will see
How great, how great is our God

Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
My heart will sing
How great is our God

Name above all names
You are worthy of all praise
And my heart will sing
How great is our God

[3x]
How great is our God
Sing with me
How great is our God
And all will see
How great, how great is our God

                                       The original..The annointed Christian singer Chris Tomlin. 

The other half of AlDub..This song I believe is the reason that it became a Platinum Hit . Continue to Glorify Our God Alden

Sykes Voices 2015

This is the time of year when bosses are giving us update of how Sykes is doing in terms of business. It's been my?? ...lost counting hehe. Never had I lost my faith for the ff to come true..still on review (crossing my fingers)

1. Retirement

2. Annual Incentive instead of gain share.

In fairness...there are a lot of changes. Sykes is getting bigger and bigger and very competitive in terms of BPO industry. Way to go!!

Regardless...I'm still happy and proud to be part of Sykes. Been 12 years not so obvious hehe. God bless to #Sykers.

Yup we are paying attention ni Abby promise haha...

Hindi pa ba tapos..Weeksary na ng Aldub :-(

Our objective of attending...freebies & snacks :-) 

ZFamily on Voices

Picture pa more :-)

This is how I start my work :-)

Being  Team Manager requires energy, positivity & dedication.

I can't start my work without uttering a simple prayer to guard my heart, my attitude and my decisions. Handling people is a tough job without putting a heart on it you'll fail . I have all the selfie time in the world so here it is....

Coffee is my booster & starter..Yes! I'm a coffee lover :-)

listening to a christian playlist . My favorites are Chris Tomlin's album & Praise & Worship 

Listening to this playlist while working...such an amazing singer & man of God . I'm your greatest Fan Chris pls come visit us hahaha...

Sabaw day for me 😳

Ideally Monday should be the most energetic since it's the 1st day of work week....you're wrong not for me 😜

It's a 2nd day for me though and Monday be like for Team Manager are business casual dress, heels on, to do list on the go, planning, monitoring etc..but for some reasons...."Sabaw"

What is "sabaw"?

Derived from tagalog word which translates into "soup"
1. Refers to somebody who is incredibly stupid.
2. The state of one's brain turning into soup from stupidity.

By s-fly

So thanks for the crazy ZTeam for making my work so much fun despite being "sabaw"

***To appreciate my Tita's gift here's one of those..my OOTD at work : dahil career ang selfie san pa ba masaya...sa toilet that has full mirror haha.. Thanks Tita Neth so love it!

CURRENTLY:

1. Watching my favorite show Eat Bulaga Kalyeserye. Aldub HT #AldubTheVisitor
2.  Engaging in the twitter world.

MOOD:

1. Sleepy & uneasy - it's my time of the month - girl thing kaya tamad.
2. Dissppointed .. No class si bunso so bonding time dapat kaya lang eto while holding my IPad sya naman phone..technology sometimes is not good.

THOUGHTS:

1. Wish i could have a long and peaceful sleep later
2. My husband & I are talking about my 2 boys tuition for 2nd sem.
3. What to wear later...another business casual thank goodness i have several clothes that was given to me by my dear Tita Naneth.
4. What's with the Kalyeserye episode later .


ALWAYS REMEMBER TO PRAISE GOD ABOVE ALL!!!

New years celebration-2008

As always, we will be celebrating New year at home for it's moms birthday. On the 31st we are all busy preparing to welcome 2008. For some reason i'm so desperate to watch korean novela most especially Coffee Prince, the new korean telenovela aired in GMA. My kids and I went to Zabarte Mall to have some grocery and to buy DVD. I did'nt expected actually did't realized that it will be difficult to travel with kids and with the grocery bags. It happened and as expected we had difficulty going home. Before that, I had some heated argument with some costumer at the grocery. Honestly it's my fault but knowing me, I will not just stand up and do nothing if I feel that I was abused or something. Since there were many people lining up to the cashier I asked my eldest son to fall in line while I finish my grocery and I learned that he was overtaked by others. When I'm about to replace my son others are complaining, my fault because i did not explained calmly (forgive me but I was so disgusted and maybe i'm so tired as well and I can't help but to let them know the real me when I'm mad hehehe. We went home safely though very tired.prepared the foods and at exactly 12 mn, we greeted each other and i felt very thankful and happy for another year that I'm still with my family complete and happy. Unfortunately all the pictures that was taked was deleted by my eldest Bro. Kuya Boy wahhhhhh.Anyways Praise God for the blessings and protection He gave us for 2007 and for more success and blessings this year. The most important thing that happened is that my husband and I prayed and....prayed :) :) :)

Happy 1 year to me..

January 1, 2008 is my 1 year anniversary as a TL. A very stressful year yet very challenging and happy. Praise God for not leaving me throughout the greatest challenge of my life. He was my comforter when I felt sad, my protector and my friend during the time that everybody is against me. My confidante when I felt nobody is listening to me. My advisor when I need to decide on things . Aside from my family, friends and my agents who believed in me and never leave me as well I consider GOD is the number 1 reason of my survival for 1 year. It's not easy being a Team Leader you need both hard work and confidence at the same time. I have learned so much from it though I went to so many trials and pain I even came to the point of giving up but God is so good He carried me when I can't bear the pain anymore. I would like to thank all the people who stayed with me, became my new friend and I'm really praying to have a fruitful year with you. And to those who give pain to my life, to those who hurt me ( intentional or unintentional) thank you too... because of that I just proved one thing...I'm still blessed to have a true friend who supported me. Family who loved me and God who stayed and loved me. Because of you guys I became a stronger one and I can say that “If God is with me, who can be against me". I believe in due time, you will become my friend too.

I'm looking forward for a better year......Breakthrough for 2008!!!

Prayer for 2008

My New years prayer

New Year's resolutions are good but fragile, that is, easily broken. New Year's prayers are better; they ascend to the throne of God and set answering wheels in motion. As we come to the beginning of another year, we would do well to make the following prayer requests our own: Lord Jesus, I rededicate myself afresh to You today. I want You to take my life this coming year and use it for Your glory. I pray that You will keep me from sin, from anything that will bring dishonor to Your Name. Keep me teachable by the Holy Spirit. I want to move forward for You. Don't let me settle in a rut. May my motto this year be, "He must increase; I must decrease." The glory must all be Yours. Help me not to touch it. Teach me to make every decision a matter of prayer. I dread the thought of leaning on my own understanding. "O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps" (Jer. 10:23). May I die to the world and even to the approval or blame of loved ones or friends. Give me a single, pure desire to do the things that please Your heart. Keep me from gossip and criticism of others. Rather, help me to speak what is edifying and profitable. Lead me to needy souls. May I become a friend of sinners, as You are. Give me tears of compassion for the perishing. Lord Jesus, keep me from becoming cold, bitter, or cynical in spite of anything that may happen to me in the Christian life. Guide me in my stewardship of money. Help me to be a good steward of everything You have entrusted to me. Help me to remember moment by moment that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. May this tremendous truth influence all my behavior. And, Lord Jesus, I pray that this may be the year of Your return. I long to see Your face and to fall at Your feet in worship. During the coming year, may the blessed hope stay fresh in my heart, disengaging me from anything that would hold me here and keeping me on the tiptoes of expectancy. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!


Taken from William MacDonald's devotional book, "One Day at a Time":

I still claimed this verse:

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11

Watching Ouija...

After shift, my agents decided to watch movie "Ouija" a horror story. I'm always looking forward of watching it and eventhough I'm sleepy and tired I agree with them. Waiting for 10am to open the cinema, we went to Trinoma and had some Brunch then watched movie. Hmmmm not that scarry but Kudos to the whole staff who made the movie for trying their best to be something new. I'm not critic myself but I guess I felt something missing in the story and seems there will be a part 2.
