Outburst of Fun!



What actually happens in Color Manila Run?

A LOT OF FUN! It’s really the biggest obstacle fun run in the country, last July 30, 2017 at McKinley Hill, Taguig. Over 120,000 runners participated in various franchises; biggest number to date.
They have options of choosing between race kits:
1. Deluxe - Php 950.00 includes a white race bib, sunglasses, finisher’s medal and color packet.
2. Trooper -Php 1,500.00, includes a colored singlet, race bib, sunglasses, finisher’s medal, color packet, drawstring bag and head wear.
3. Challenger - Php 1,850.00, includes black singlet, race bib, sunglasses, finisher’s medal, color packet, drawstring bag, head wear and a finisher’s shirt.
1. It’s a great way to invite new friends to run.
However, due to the huge number of participants this year, it also contributed to killing the momentum and excitement of the fun run because you will have to wait for your turn for at least five minutes before you can do the challenge. But then again, all is well that ends well. You just need to enjoy every bit of it. Races like this is a great venue to introduce running to friends and relieves. Run with them, and pace them, maybe give them tips along the way.  
2. You don’t really run… seriously.
Honestly, in races like Color Manila (unless you joined the 21K distance), you don’t really “run”, well not seriously anyway, the race is designed so that runners take mandatory stops at “color stations” to play with colors and activities within the area. But since this is just our first Color Manila Run, the group took the 3K category and race becomes even more challenging because of the obstacles on every goal you passed. So, I guess better choice on this fun run.

Love Not Nails

Sea of Galilee O pinions on fake news is getting worse, misinformation in social media rapidly circulates.  People are excessively concern of themselves and malicious comments are trending online. I've sensed so much hate, I've heard a lot of demands. This brought me to pause and dropped my phone and shut it off. I'm done praying when I grabbed my Bible to read.  The Holy Spirit took me to 1 Corinthians 13:4-13 and it recites the verses of love. I can always read this passage again and again because the word love is so rich and true. Words can't express enough, totally powerful, ineffable. He illuminates verse 7, "Love never gives up, and its faith, hope and patience never fail." Love perfectly describes as eternal. Spurgeon once preached, "God is a sun that never sets." Indeed, the picture of the Cross is the best demonstration of love and truth, because it is love, not nails, what held Jesus on that cross and His love surpassed death because it doe...

Ready or Not?

Perhaps you're wanting to start a new ministry, perhaps you're wanting to apply to another job or perhaps you wanted to get serious with someone you really like. Whatever it may be, there are seasons that God may tell us we are not ready but then later on, He will let us know when we are ready. These are my common realizations in the waiting as I traced God's way of telling me or encouraging me to do something new or start stepping into the unfamiliar place. If you're one of my closest, you know that I'm the type of person who won't do something if I know I'm not ready, or I didn't prepare myself for it. That's why I think carefully before writing this piece, because we have different personalities, levels of spiritual discernment, and of course God can speak to us in various ways. These realizations I share are based on my own experience, discernment, and meditation of The Word in connection of some events in the past where I strongly sensed God tel...

(Yhwh) our God Cannot Lie

Trying to take my mind off any racing thoughts. But it doesn't work, still wide awake. I realized it's already midnight, so I tend to pray again a little, return to bed. Staring at the dark ceiling, toss and turn, then noticed it's been already an hour since I last checked the time.       Thinking of something deep, seeking God for clear answers about matters of heart.  Asking him like, "really Lord, you said yes, and this is for real?.... But why it seemed I don't see any signs?", "Did I heard you right ?"  or "Am I only getting impatient?..." Then it is even getting harder to catch a sleep.  There are times that I sincerely prayed for something, committing all my strength to wait on it, believing  that I heard the Lord clearly with the confirmation of the Scripture. But there were days that doubts start rising, and not always in the mood to praise. Times when all of the sudden, I simply want to stop and tell God, " did ...
