But you know better now, so make sure it’s all gone for good: bad temper, irritability, meanness, profanity, dirty talk. Don’t lie to one another. You’re done with that old life. It’s like a filthy set of ill-fitting clothes you’ve stripped off and put in the fire. Now you’re dressed in a new wardrobe. Every item of your new way of life is custom-made by the Creator, with his label on it. All the old fashions are now obsolete. Words like Jewish and non-Jewish, religious and irreligious, insider and outsider, uncivilized and uncouth, slave and free, mean nothing. From now on everyone is defined by Christ, everyone is included in Christ. So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it. Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.--Colossians 3:8-17, The Message Version
Insignificant notes in Accounting world but very significant to one Accountancy student.

Nagtatampo ako sa'yo. Alam mo ba 'yun? Siguro akala mo hindi ako matampuhin, madalas ko kasi itong itago o hindi ko inaamin. Pero ngayon aaminin ko nagtampo talaga ako.
Nasaktan ako e, alam mo naman diba? Nakita mo. Nakita mo ang mga patak ng luha sa aking mata na pilit kong itinago. Pero wala naman ata akong maitatago sa'yo, alam mo na ang lahat sa akin. Ikaw ang nakakakilala sakin ng buo. At dahil dun mas lalo ako nagtampo. Pakiramdam ko napabayaan ako. Pinabayaan mo akong mag-isa, alam mo naman na hindi ko gustong mapag-isa sa mga ganitong panahon. Wala kang obligasyon na samahan ako pero hindi ba dapat may gawin ka? Nasaan ka? Pakiramdam ko nawala ka bigla.
Oo nga naman, marami kang inaasikaso. Maraming naghahanap sa'yo at masyado kang abala para intindihin pa ang kadramahang kong ito. Pero alam ko kayang kaya mo akong intindihin kahit gaano ka pa ka-abala. Ayaw kong isipin na wala akong halaga sa'yo, kasi sabi mo mahalaga ako sa'yo pero sumagi 'yun sa isipan ko. Lalo akong nalungkot at naiyak sa mga naisip ko. Bakit ganun ka? Ayaw na muna kita kausapin.
Dito ko napag-isip isip na mahal pala talaga kita. Na kahit nagtatampo ako, hindi kita matiis. Kahit ayaw kita kausapin, mayroon nagtutulak sa akin na gawin 'yun. Hindi rin kita natiis. Kinausap din kita. Sinabi mo ang mga kailangan kong marinig. Napangiti ako. Naintindihan kita.Siguro ganito ang nararamdaman mo kapag ako naman ang hindi mo maramdaman. Ngayon alam ko na. Patawarin mo ako. Bati na tayo ha?

Not the First One
If I'm not the first one you think of when you wake up,
It won't ruin my day.
If I'm not the first one you turn to when you are in trouble,
I won't be hurt
If I'm not the first one that makes you happy,
I won't be sad
If I'm not the first one you seek when you need help,
I won't be offended
If I'm not the first one who makes you jump in excitement,
I won't be jealous
If I'm not the first one you prioritize,
I won't be mad
If I'm not the first one who makes you cry,
I won't weep
If I'm not the first one you adore,
I won't be insecure
If I'm not the first one you are grateful for,
I won't feel insignificant
If I'm not the first one you Love,
I won't feel betrayed
It's okay If I'm not your only one..
As long as God is your First one,
I would always love to be the Second one.
It won't ruin my day.
If I'm not the first one you turn to when you are in trouble,

I would always love to be the Second one.

He is Jealous For Me :'-)
I'm not the "jealous" type of person. Believe me, I don't easily feel that. Or maybe I feel that, It's just that I have somehow learned to ignore that feeling. I can be jealous whenever my mother happily talks to my sister and ignores me. I can be jealous when someone is so clingy with my best friend. When you feel jealous, you feel that something is taken away from you and you don't want it to happen, of course. It's a very unpleasant feeling. A simple feeling of jealousy can lead to a serious feeling of hatred, betrayal, and regret. Some people has been involved in crimes because of jealousy. I hate being jealous, and I know you hate it too.
But how does is it feel to be the one to be jealous about? You feel special, right? It assures you that you mean so much to someone. If you're going to ask me, I really don't know. I've never heard of someone who feels jealous because of me. I've never experienced that...
Not until I found out that He is jealous for me :'-) <3
Yes He is, He is jealous. With teary eyes, I just realized that. He's jealous when I open my eyes in the morning and not think of Him first. He's jealous whenever I listen to Maroon 5's new album rather than Him. He's jealous whenever I spend a lot of time talking to other people and he only got me talking to Him for 5 minutes. He's jealous whenever I read my news feed and timelines so much rather than His words. He's jealous whenever I'm so occupied with all the recreation I fancy. He is really jealous. Why? because He said He loves me. He loves me very much.
And this Man I know loves me more than anyone in this world. His love for me weighs much more compared to all the love I get from all the people I know. That is true, I can feel it.
And Yes, He loves you too. God loves you too. God is jealous, He doesn't want you to be too much occupied with anything or anyone. He always wants you to be close to Him. But never take God's jealousy negatively. He is not like us humans. He is jealous because He just wants us not to be far from Him. He wants us to always be under His blessings and His care. He created us, He cares for us, He loves us. If you think that nobody cares for you, God cares for you and He loves you. And that Love is something so significant that nothing can compare to that, even all the love in the world.
Just imagine how much sadness we feel whenever we are jealous of a single person. Painful, isn't it? How much more the feeling God gets everyday when billions of people (that includes you and me) ignore Him?
God is a jealous God, and He wants your Undivided heart, Because He loves You.
"Father, When you wake me up in the morning, The first person I will think of is You. Sorry for the times that you are just my second, third, fourth and so on priority. Thank You for loving me so much despite everything I've done that pains You. I will love You back."
