The Believers, The Atheists and FAITH

I don't normally participate in our office's online forum. I only visit the forum during my spare time. Months ago, as I was doing my usual reading my attention was caught by the signature of one of my colleagues. It's a qoute from Epicurus..... "Is God willing to prevent evil but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is Malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then hence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? Well, maybe it is in our human nature to ask and question God. It is a natural reaction to complain in times of distraught and hopelessness for complaining is the easiest way to handle uncomfortable circumstances. Sometimes we have our own disappointments with God that lead us to doubt His kingship and power. It can cause dilemma that can be compared to the "egg or chicken" dilemma; "who came first, the chicken or the egg". Friends if you have any doubts regarding God's will

Don Moen’s "Worship and Revival Concert Tour" in Iloilo

Known for his many inspirational songs such as "God Will Make A Way," "Give Thanks," "God is Good All the Time" and "Thank You Lord," Don Moen is a famous songwriter and performer who gained success with his praise & worship songs. I have known him since I was in gradeschool and that's before the Hillsong generation.

But where God guides, He provides so I was able to acquire a ticket courtesy of John. And so, last April 10 at 7:00 pm I was at Don Moen’s "Worship and Revival Concert Tour". I had a great time. It was a spirit-filled evening of praise and worship as God's believers unite in prayer for Go

Friday Sickness

Occurrence: every Friday Symptoms: bored to death, drowsiness, brain dead, always looking on the wall clock, low morale Findings: I am having this Friday sickness. It's some sort of psychological feeling that I have before the week ends. It seems that I am not capable of thinking and every single minute spent in front of my pc results to boredom. The hours seem to be too long and at times I want to speed it up..if only I can do some magic. I'm so stupid. I know that there's an antidote for this sickness but I prefer not to do it. Just like what I am saying to Donna (friend, seat mate, teammate), maybe I am a masochist. I have the power to things the present circumstances but I allowed other forces to dominate. But I just can't do it now...it's not easy to change a career if you're working in order to live. Maybe some day...when the right time comes...
