When we journey without the Cross, when we build without the Cross,
when we profess Christ without the Cross,
we are not disciples of the Lord, we are worldly:
we may be bishops, priests, cardinals, popes, but not disciples of the Lord.

Obey and Witness

I have been in SFC for the past four years and I always help out in the evangelization of our brothers and sisters with all that I could offer.   I was all the more empowered after attending the Singles For Christ International Conference (ICon) 2013.  I reflected on one of the priest's homily, he mentioned, "Obey and Witness should come together because we cannot be a witness if we don't know how to obey."

The only way that we can witness to the miracles of Jesus is by obeying Him.  I made this as a challenge to myself --- to obey so that I can truly be a witness.

Chase Your Dreams


I realized that I've graduated from college nearly six years ago and I'm here abroad for the same number of years. I have achieved and done things that I was only dreaming about before.

I am truly blessed by God. But I still have lots of dreams to accomplish and experiences to live.

I have faltered at some point and have chosen difficult paths but I believe that it had helped me get by with life’s challenges and will help me in the future to make right choices.

I will once again fire up the will to accomplish my dreams. I will chase and live my dreams. 

With God’s grace, I will succeed.

I know, I will succeed.

Lord, I don't want to ask for you to strengthen me, but rather be my strength oh God.
I don't want to ask you to be better in my life, but rather I ask You
to make me better for You oh God.  Help me Lord, hear my cry.  Amen!

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for,  
the conviction of things not seen.
