EIGHTEEN

I just recently turned 18 last December 25, 2014. At first, I’m not excited to celebrate such like this events not just because of pressure because you’re already at the legal age but because it’s my debut and I don’t like to celebrate it here at our barangay because I already know who would be possibly present and how would it be possibly celebrated.

We just wait 12:00 midnight for Noche Buena then pray together, then group hug then eat together then finish, just a typical scene that we are doing for the past years. God you know that I’ve been praying that they would be shared by the gospel, all of them. I’m tensed , it’s always inside my head but when that time comes all that I did was to pray boldly to them that this is what I am now but not been able to share the gospel to them. They just know that I went to a born again Christian group and that’s it. … I failed you again. And again and again. I never had the strength to face them, I’m soooo afraid. And evening comes. Around 6:00 pm, some batchmates went in our house and greeted me.(Sammel Nabor<dude>, Ronie Er-er, Benito Salundaguit) I was so shocked because I never expected them to come, I never invited anyone to come to our house for my birthday except for family. So, we went to Sering gym and wait for Phinx Chen and phinx Amor but sad to say that Phinx Amor was practicing for the caroling contest for an event of the barangay. We wait for Junioriz Cortes<lolo> since his the reason behind everything( even if I already told them not to come beforehand) … then, we went inside. The rice were not enough for us (Sammel,Ronie,Benito, Reymark Caban, Keirklan Alvarez(younger brother of my batchmate) and phinx chen so we went to ante gingging’s carenderiya but there’s no more rice left. As I enter our house, I saw… Margielyn Cortes, Sharryl Cortes<arsh>, Sweet Cyrel Roma<kc>, Jelimar Alvarez<mj>. I’m so shocked why they came out of a sudden but it’s the present situation already and I could not help it though. Now, Erwin Paduga<utz> came also with his friend,ate Dimple. I’m so nervous since Margielyn and I decided to share the Gospel to them. I don’t know what to do.

As I started the gospel using gospel hand, I’m so nervous but it’s for God, for His glory and I’mmmmm reeeeaaallly sooooooo happy that they would hear the gospel somehow. So, utz cause so much destruction but it’s a need that this would be pushed through and through no matter what happens and in the end VICTORY is for God… I don’t know if they had accepted Christ as their Lord and personal Savior but I just trust them and God that he let those words awaken some of what’s in their hearts. haahaahahahahah I’ve cried a lot<sooo OA> as we pray for the prayer of acceptance that turned out to be a Prayer of Acceptance/Prayer for them. hehehe… then, back to normal mode.

Due to this circumstances, I have realized that ONLY GOD’S WILL PREVAILS. I really THANK and PRAISE GOD for everything… I pray that my family could be saved too and accept Him with all their hearts.
