Voice of Truth

Bagong gising lang nag-ala "Casting Crowns" na. aw!
Anyway, hindi ito patungkol sa kumakanta... Patungkol ito sa mensahe ng kanta.. =)

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes to climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
To the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. 'Boy, you'll never win!'
"You'll never win"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
And the voice of truth says "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a Sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again "boy, you'll never win!
"You'll never win"

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth...

Baka po isipin nyo yung video na nakita nyo ay yung Original Version; Hindi po imitation version lang po yan. (ahihi - ma-feeling naman tong si Goryo)

"The Place"

Eto ang tawag kapag sinuntok ka tapos hindi ka gaano napuruhan. Gaya nang retrato jan sa baba, sinuntok sya pero di gaano napuruhan."The Place" lang ang tama.

"The place" lang...

MAGNA... c-u-m-l-a-u-d-e ?

Panahon na naman ng pasukan. Bili ng bagong bag, bagong uniform, bagong notebook, bagong ballpen, bagong libro at kung anu-ano pang bagong reketitos at epektos na ginagamit sa pag-aaral.

Naaalala ko yung advise ng aking lola nung bago ako magkolehiyo.

Sabi nya : Goryo iho, mahalin mo ang pagiging isang estudyante. Pahalagahan mo ang pagkakataong ika'y nakakapag-aaral. Huwag kang magsasawa sa pag-pasok sa eskwela. Ito lamang ang tanging maipapamana namin sa iyo na kahit kaylan ay hindi kayang nakawin nino man...

At dahil mahal ko ang aking lola at dahil masunurin akong apo, tinupad ko ang kanyang mga sinabi. Sobra kong minahal ang pag-aaral at ang pagpasok sa eskuwela.

Naging MAGNA ako sa kolehiyo. Magna-nine years, --- siyam na taon ako sa Kolehiyo. Palipat-lipat ako ng school, para lang akong nagba-bar-hopping (enjoy! - ahihihi). Anim na paaralan/campus ang aking napasukan sa loob ng siyam na taon. Pasok dito, pasok doon; In fact, sa sobrang pagmamahal ko sa pag-aaral kamuntik ko nang hindi iwanan ang estadong ito ng aking buhay.

Pero sa awa ng Diyos, sa hinaba-haba man ng prosisyon, sa graduation din ang tuloy. Nagtapos ako sa kursong Computer Science. At dahil may koneksyon ako, nakahanap agad ako ng trabaho isang buwan matapos ang aking graduation. Ako ay na-hire sa TOSHIBA PC Manufacturing (laptop)  bilang isang System Engr., ito ang aking unang trabaho. Ang tanging naging koneksyon ko mula nung panahon na iyon hanggang sa ngayon ay walang iba kundi si Lord.

PRAYER -- it is not an extra option or the last resort when all other methods have failed... When man works, man works. But when man prays, God works!
