This photo is taken by Zr Custodio, during sunset in their place, according to him the Island fronting them is the Island of Leyte. Noticed the cloud formation having lit with sunlight, amazingly creates an optical image as the Face of GOD, looking down on an Island.

Recently the world turned their attention to the Philippines, when the strongest, and most devastating storm Yolanda (Haiyan) hit the area of Leyte, thousands of lives were lost and thousands had left homeless because of that super typhoon. This image could be a message that God is always looking at us with full of compassion and mercy, that God never forget his people in the Philippines, especially the survivors of the super typhoon. Let us just pray for continued recovery and welfare of the people in that place, that eventually they will forget the heart crashing tragedy they experienced and moving onward for the betterment of their lives and continue their journey to live and experience the love of God in their heart. May God bless us always.

Let me share to you the lyrics of song "The Face of God"

To see the face of God is my heart’s desire 

to gaze upon the Lord is my one desire

For God so loved the world 

He gave His son, 

His only be gotten son

And they shall call him Emmanuel,

The prince of peace,

The hope of all the world

Coda:

Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Emmanuel 

May this be our desire everyday of our lives. 

NOVENA TO GOD’S LOVE

NOVENA TO GOD’S LOVE

Today, I receive all of God’s love for me.

Today, I open myself to the unbounded, limitless,

overflowing abundance of God’s Universe.

Today, I open myself to God’s Blessings, healing and miracles.

Today, I open myself to God’s Word so

I become more like Jesus everyday.

Today, I proclaim that

I’m God’s Beloved,

I’m God’s Servant,

I’m God’s powerful champion,

And because I am blessed,

I am blessing the world,

In Jesus Name,

Amen.

From The Feast by Bro. Bo Sanchez

St. Augustine Feast day, August 28

St. Augustine is recognized as the patron saint of searchers, perhaps to honor his unending quest for truth which led him to become the champion of the One True God, and also the patron saint of brewers to recognize his past association with inebriation.

QUEENSHIP OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY - August 22

Image: http://www.catholictradition.org/Mary/queenship-mary.htm

August 22 is the Feast of The Immaculate Heart of Mary, Traditional Calendar and the Queenship of Mary, the New Calendar. October 11 is the Feast of the Divine Maternity, both Calendars and the Queenship of Mary, Traditional Calendar.

On the 11th OF October 1954, Pope Pius XII established the Feast of the Queenship of Mary to be celebrated throughout the world, and commanded that on that day each year, the world should renew its consecration to her. In the future the Feast came to be celebrated on 22nd of August.

"The purpose of the Feast is that all may recognize more clearly and venerate more devoutly the merciful and motherly sovereignty of her who bore God in her womb" (Ven. Pius XII, Ad. Coeli Reginam).

On the day of her Assumption, Mary our Mother was solemnly crowned by Christ and received by the whole court of Heaven as Queen.

What Christ has done in Heaven and the Church has done on our behalf we should now do individually, that is, we should recognize Mary's Queenship, enthrone her in our homes, consecrate ourselves to her and, by this means, establish in our lives the reign of Mary Immaculate Queen of the Universe.

Nariyan Ka Lyrics - Bukas Palad

Koro:
Saan man ako magpunta
Nariyan Ka, nariyan Ka
Anumang kahihinatnan
Buhay ko'y 'Yong tangan
Nariyan Ka, nariyan Ka

Verse 1
Matatakasan ba
Ang yakap Mong lingap-aba
Abutin man ang karimlan
Tiyak kong nariyan Ka
Repeat Koro

Verse 2
Bawat kilos ko
Bawat tibok ng puso ko
Batid Mo na'ng lahat
Pagkat sa 'Yo nagmumula
Repeat Koro

Verse 3
Di matatarok
Kadakilaan Mo, Ama
Higit pa sa bilang ng talaga
Ang Iyong himala
Repeat Koro

Verse 4
Di lingin sa 'Yo
Ang kahinaa't sala ko
Ituro Mo'ng wastong daan
Tungo sa 'Yong tahanan
Repeat Koro

Happy Day Lyrics - Tim Hughes

By: Tim Hughes

The greatest day in history
Death is beaten, You have rescued me
Sing it out, Jesus is alive

The empty cross, the empty grave
Life eternal, You have won the day
Shout it out, Jesus is alive
He's alive

Oh, happy day, happy day
You washed my sin away
Oh, happy day, happy day
I'll never be the same
Forever I am changed

When I stand in that place
Free at last, meeting face to face
I am yours, Jesus, You are mine

Endless joy, perfect peace
Earthly pain finally will cease
Celebrate, Jesus is alive
He's alive

Oh, what a glorious day
What a glorious way
That You have saved me
Oh, what a glorious day
What a glorious name
