Give us this day our daily bread. â€"Matthew 6:11

Not long ago, I traveled to the Democratic Republic of Congo to lead a Bible conference. I took in the beauty of the Nyungwe Forest and Ruzizi River, which separates Congo from Rwanda. I experienced the amazing hospitality of the Congolese people, and I was moved by their sincere faith in God’s provision.

Because unemployment, poverty, and malnutrition are serious problems there, the people often don’t know where their next meal will come from. So each time they sit down to eat, they thank God and ask Him to provide the next meal.

Their prayer sounds a lot like Jesus’ prayer in Matthew 6:11, “Give us this day our daily bread.” The word bread refers to any food. The phrase “this day” indicates provision that came to them one day at a time.

Many first-century workers were paid one day at a time, so a few days’ illness could spell tragedy. “Daily” could be translated “for the coming day.” The prayer would read: “Give us today our bread for the coming day.” It was an urgent prayer to those who lived from hand to mouth.

This prayer calls Jesus’ followers everywhere to recognize that our ability to work and earn our food comes from God’s hand. â€"Marvin Williams

Lord, thank You for our daily bread
And everything that You provide;
Increase our faith and help us see
That Your supply is deep and wide. â€"Sper

Our problems are never a strain on God’s provision.

be thankful na makakaon ta 3 x a day or usahay 5 x pa

From Psychology Today

1. Size Up Wisely  
Think of professional beauties as aesthetic marvels (and genetic accidents). Don't compare yourself with them.

2. Reflect on Your Relationships
Partners have a big impact on how we view our looks. If we get a steady dose of fondness and acceptance, "it's like being in the glow of a romantic candlelit dinnerâ€"we are seen in the best possible light," says McGrath.

3. It's Not About You!
"Show up at a party with a group of friends and you'll automatically appear more attractive," says Carducci. "It's social capital -- it suggests that you know how to lead others and bring them together."

4. You're Instrumental
If you think of your body as an instrument, you'll see it as something that you can shape and transform,"

5. Get an Inner Makeover
Give more airtime to other aspects of your self-image. "Consciously think of why you are desirable to other people -- perhaps because they respect your competence or because you are warm and interesting. In the long run, these characteristics are more important to attraction than physical looks."

6. Be a Singular Sensation
I'm trying to let people know, 'I'm here and let's have a good time.' When you're in clothes that reflect who you are, you make it easier for others to talk to you -- and it's not how beautiful you are, but how approachable you are."

7. Get Older, Feel Better
We dread getting older, but there is evidence that people feel more attractive with age. "Older women tend to shed their self-consciousness

8. Beauty Is No Panacea
On average, attractive people are not happier than their homelier peers. A sense of optimism and hope, gratifying relationships and meaning and purpose in your life have much more influence on your happiness than do your looks

How do we want others â€" our family, friends, history â€" to remember us? We can all be heroes without need of fighting grand wars, but by simply and consistently upholding moral values, our principles, integrity, truth, honor, kindness, hope, decency.

If you would have the chance to meet God, what will you tell/ask or request from Him?

i will ask GOD na i want to see my father again,mao ra jud na ako gi pray till now na wala pa jud ma granted.

Quote from: Bohol Philippines on June 15, 2007, 05:44:26 AM
The Bible says that God is a spirit (without flesh and bones), and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.

We can always meet God anytime, anywhere. The belief that we need to go to a place to meet God is completely wrong.

Going to church is not really intended to meet God but to have fellowship with the body of believers, thus encouraging each other.

You can meet God today by calling on His name through Jesus. In the Old Testament, God said: "Call unto Me, and I will answer thee."

And the New Testament says: "Whoever shall call the name of Jesus, will be saved."

"God's way often conflicts with our own desires. His commands can seem
foolish and outdated. They are not. God's way is so far above our way that
we can barely comprehend. Know that His way is perfect. He knows what is
best for us even when His way seemed foolish."

(iVillage Total Health) - Dermatologists, cancer experts and public health officials are urging Americans to practice sun safety during the upcoming summer months of sunshine and outdoor activities. New studies and precautions have been announced in observance of Sun Safety Week, from June 3-9.

Among the safety precautions recommended by the American Cancer Society (ACS): wearing hats, long sleeves and pants, using sunscreen and avoiding the outdoors during hours when the sun is most intense (between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.).

New research from the University of Alabama at Birmingham suggests that drinking green tea may help sun worshippers avoid skin cancer. A study published in the May issue of the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry found that plant chemicals in green tea may aid in inhibiting tumor growth.

"Green tea prevents UV radiation induced suppression of the immune system, which has been considered a risk factor for the development of skin cancer," Santosh Katiyar, the lead Alabama researcher, said in a press release.

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. Despite warnings about the harmful effects of the sun, more than 1 million cases of non-melanoma skin cancer occur each year, according to the ACS. The deadliest form of skin cancer - melanoma - is strongly associated with excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV), which can come from sunlight or tanning booths and beds. The ACS estimates that 59,940 new cases of melanoma will be diagnosed and more than 8,000 people will die from melanoma in 2007.

Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, the ACS's deputy chief medical officer, said a new report on adolescent and teen sunburns showed that much work is still needed to prevent early sun exposure.

"Despite evidence that excessive sun exposure in childhood contributes to the risk of skin cancers later in life, our study reveals that sunburns remain common among adolescents," Lichtenfeld said in a radio interview. "Further, most teens still view a tan as not only a good look, but also a sign of good health."

To further the message of staying safe in the sun, the ACS is again promoting its Slip! Slop! Slap! campaign. It reminds people to slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen and slap on hat when going outdoors. Using sunglasses to protect the eyes is also recommended.

People who want to minimize their risk of skin cancer can do so by following these skin care recommendations:

    * Beware of sores that are not healing. People may think a sore or pimple is persistent, but it may be more serious and possibly an early form of skin cancer.

    * Monitor your moles. Melanoma usually develops in a pre-existing mole. Closely monitoring moles for changes in size, shape, color and number can help. If any change is noted, a physician should be consulted immediately.

    * Be cautious of bleeding and scabbing. Any area of the skin that is bleeding, scabbing or releasing fluids is extremely dangerous and a physician should be consulted immediately.

    * Monitor exposure to the sun. The more sun exposure, the greater risk of skin cancer. People who work outside or individuals who live in tropical climates must understand they are not immune to the sun and that the application of sunscreen is vital throughout the year. The sun is just as damaging to the skin during the winter months as it is in the summer months.

    * Know your genes. If there is a history of skin cancer in your family and you have light hair and light eyes, you are at a greater risk for skin cancer and should always protect yourself with sunscreen.

Quote from: Bohol Philippines on June 14, 2007, 03:51:33 PM
Deployment of Filipino domestic helpers to the Middle East dropped by 9 to 10 percent in the first five months of 2007, but Labor Secretary Arturo Brion refused to attribute the decline to the government’s policy doubling the minimum salary for household service workers to $400 beginning December 15, 2006.

Brion told newsmen in an interview that the demand for HSWs has gone down while job orders for skilled workers and professionals like nurses, engineers and teachers have increased.

The drop in the deployment of domestic helpers did not seem to bother the labor chief at all. “What is most important is that the deployment of our professionals and skilled workers is going up," he stressed.

He noted that between January and May, professionals such as nurses, engineers, teachers and other skilled workers comprise the biggest bulk of deployment while domestic workers had fallen to third place.

“Our HSW are now in No.3 and leading in the deployment is the professionals and skilled workers," Brion said.

Labor attaché Romeo Young earlier reported that the Philippine Overseas Labor Office in Oman has verified at least 25 job orders in the first three months of the year, representing a significant increase from 18 job orders during the same period in 2006.

He said job orders in Oman for Filipino workers have increased and labor officials noted a shift from domestic helpers to services and technical workers.

The job orders would benefit at least 4, 234 Filipino workers, according to POEA Administrator Rosalinda Baldoz.

She said the shift is a positive sign that the reform package for Filipino household workers implemented since December 2006 has become effective in improving the quality of Filipino manpower required by foreign employers.

The labor attaché reported that job requests for household workers decreased to a low of 15 percent of the total job orders during the first quarter, from 60 percent in January to March 2006.

Baldoz noted that 52 percent of the demand was on service industry workers such as sales persons, waiters and waitresses, beauticians, building workers; and 16 percent from the engineering and construction industry sector.

She said she anticipates the shift in the quality of manpower demand in the Middle East, not only because of the implementation of the reform package for Filipino household service workers but also of the development of the tourism, oil and industry sectors in the region.

Another labor official, who did not want to be named, attributed the drop in the deployment of domestic helpers partly to the salary adjustment. He said many employers in the Middle East opted to extend the contract of their Filipino household service worker instead of giving her a plane ticket to go back to the Philippines.

The official said this was a way to avoid hiring back the same worker at the higher monthly salary of $400.

“Sa mga domestic helpers na nag-expire na ang mga kontrata hindi na sila umuuwi para mag-renew kasi ang ginagawa doon ngayon sa Middle East ng mga employers nila instead of buying them plane tickets ibinibigay na lang ito sa domestic workers to extend their contracts," the official said.

Other Middle Eastern employers hired domestic helpers from India and other Asian countries that offered lower salary for their workers.

Administrator Marianito Roque of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA)explained in a separate interview that only the new contracts processed by the POEA are covered by the US$400 minimum salary for HSW.

Asked if it is likely that employers are really extending the contracts of their workers without the approval from the Philippine government, Roque said, “It’s possible".

Earlier, recruiters from the GCC or the Cooperation Council of the Arab States in the Gulf had threatened to recommend a ban to Filipino domestic helpers until the Philippine government revises the policy mandating the $400 monthly salary and, at the same time, imposing a $13 penalty on foreign employers who would not comply with the contract provisions, such as delayed payment or underpayment of agreed salaries.

Members of the GCC are Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman.

In Bahrain, the demand for skilled Filipino workers has also posted a steady increase.

Philippine Ambassador Eduardo Maglaya noted a 17.7 percent increase in the number of Filipinos either hired or rehired in 2006, or from 9, 968 in 2006 to 11,736 in 2006.

"Filipinos have found a niche in Bahrain's labor market - which is in the service industry - and we expect more workers, particularly professionals, to come. There is also a need for middle and upper management level workers in the IT and banking industries, said Philippine Ambassador Eduardo Maglaya.

He also noted the signing of the memorandum of understanding between the Philippines and Bahrain in April this year, which will pave the way for Filipino nurses and doctors to go to Bahrain, while Bahraini health workers would come to the Philippines as part of the exchange program."

Maglaya said that the continued growing demand for workers from the Philippines represented the strong preference shown by Bahraini companies to Filipinos.

Since the $400 monthly salary rate took effect in January, Maglaya said the embassy has already processed more than 100 contracts for Filipino domestic workers.

"The Philippine government imposed this rule for a good reason and we only hope that others would follow suit. As for skilled Filipino workers, three of the biggest recruiters of Filipinos in Bahrain actually do not need to go to recruiting agencies - most of these giant companies send their own officials to the Philippines to hire workers," Maglaya said.

About 30,000 of the estimated 40,000 Filipinos in Bahrain are workers, 5,000 are dependents and another 5,000 were classified as undocumented workers. - GMANews.TV

Hung Chow calls into work and says, "Hey Boss, I no come
work today, I really  sick. Got headache, stomach ache and legs
hurt, I no come work."

The boss says, "You know something, Hung Chow, I
really need you today.  When I feel like this, I go to my wife and
tell her to give me sex.  That  makes everything better and I go
to work.  You try that."

Two hours later Hung Chow calls again. "I do what you say and I
feel great.   I be at work soon......... You got nice house."

An LA lawyer parks his brand new Porsche in front of
the office to show it off to his colleagues. As
he?s getting out of the car, a semi-trailer comes
flying along too close to the kerb and takes off
the door before speeding off.


Distraught, the lawyer grabs his mobile and calls
the cops. Five minutes later, the police arrive.
Before the cop has a chance to ask any questions,
the lawyer starts screaming hysterically: ?My Porsche,
My beautiful silver Porsche is ruined. No matter how
long it?s at the panel beaters it?ll simply never be
the same again!?


After the lawyer finally finishes his rant, the
policeman shakes his head in disgust. ?I can?t believe
how materialistic you bloody lawyers are,? he says.
?You lot are so focused on your possessions that you
don?t notice anything else in your life.?


?How can you say such a thing at a time like this??
snaps the lawyer.


The policeman replies, ?Didn?t you
realize that your right arm was torn off when
the truck hit you.?


The lawyer looks down in absolute horror.


?OH NO!!!!!? he screams.
?Where?s my Rolex??

hehehehe!grabe jud!

from Our Daily Bread devotional

I will never leave you nor forsake you. â€"Hebrews 13:5

I know I’m not supposed to worry, but I’m a little concerned about something. Perhaps it’s because of a new situation in our family. As I look around, I can’t help but have a bit of anxiety. You see, my wife and I recently found out that we were going to be grandparents. This led me to think about the kind of world our grandchild will grow up in.

When he or she graduates from high school, it will be 2024. Will college cost $100,000 a year by then? If there’s any oil left, will gas cost $25 a gallon? Will morals and ethics be outmoded? And will the church still be making an impact?

The future can be a scary place. The unknown can be overwhelming, especially when the known has so many struggles. That’s why we need to trust in what God has promised.

No matter what situation our grandchildren will face, they can depend on God’s promise of helpâ€"regardless of what trouble the world will be in. God said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Heb. 13:5). And Jesus said, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matt. 28:20).

Those are great promises to depend on when we start to worry about the future, whether it’s ours or the next generation’s. â€"Dave Branon

Concern for future cares and problems
Will only bring us pain and sorrow;
The Lord has told us not to worry
About the troubles of tomorrow. â€"Sper

We may not know what the future holds, but we can trust the One who holds the future.

yes its true,so everytime i worry i surrender it to the LORD

A Filipino is having breakfast in a hotel in France one morning...
coffee, croissants, bread, butter, jam when an American, chewing gum,
sits down next to him.

The Pinoy ignores the Kano (slang for americans) who, nevertheless,
starts a conversation:

*Kano: "You Filipinos eat the whole bread??"
*Pinoy: (nayayabangan sa Kano): "Of course."
*Kano: (after blowing a huge bubble) "We don't. In America, we only eat
what's inside. The crusts we collect in a container, recycle it,
transform them into croissants and sell them to the Philippines."

The American has a smirk on his face. The Pinoy listens in silence.
Still the American persists.

*Kano: "Do you eat jelly with the bread??"
*Pinoy: "Of Course."
*Kano: (cracking his gum between his teeth and chuckling). "We don't.
In America we eat fresh fruits for breakfast, then we put all the peels,
seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into
jam and sell the jam to the Philippines."

The Pinoy (asar na talaga) asks: "Do you have sex in America?"
*Kano: "Why, of course we do."
*Pinoy: (now smirking): "And what do you do with the condoms once you've
used them?"
*Kano: (a bit puzzled): "We throw them away, of course."
*Pinoy: "We don't. In my beloved Philippines, we put them in a
container, recycle them, melt them into chewing gum and sell them to
America."

hahaha!nakabalos pod!

A couple of days ago a colleague invited me to come to Bangkok.

"Man, would you like to go with me to Bangkok tonight. I will meet up five girls."

"I can't," went my lackadaisical reply.  He knew that I can't, I won't get into this kind of meeting. And he was insistent. He gave up in the end. I think he already knew that I won't be going with him, but he just wanted to drag me into an unknown territory.

The next day I asked him, "How was your date last night?"

"Don't ask me."

"Something went wrong?"

"Not really. I spent all money I had last night."

"Why?"

"We were in an expensive restaurant, and I paid all the bills."

"How much?"

"Please, man, don't ask me. I don't want to remember the amount." And he added: "Please, don't tell anybody about this."


Reflection: Learn to say no. It will save you from unnecessary trouble.

but sometimes can't resist!

Yilmaz: Kids to stay with Ruffa if she's decent
06/09/2007 | 09:39 AM

"As long as Ruffa is a decent mother, I will not separate my children from their mother."

This was Yilmaz Bektas's exact words in response to the question if he's planning to fight for the custody of his two daughters, Lorin and Venice, from estranged wife Ruffa Gutierrez.

In an exclusive interview aired last night, June 8, in 24 Oras, Yilmaz also mentioned that he has no problem if his children stay here in the Philippines, or any other country for that matter, just as long as they're safe and sound.

"As long as they're safe and happy my daughters can live in the Philippines or any other countries [sic]," he further said.

The controversial Turkish millionaire admitted missing his children so much but also understands that the situation calls for him to be separated even from his children.

"I love them even I am not near them. But whenever my children need me, I [will be with them right away]," he mentioned before sealing the message with a kiss.

Yilmaz also spoke about the "wife-beater" issue that is being associated with him.

"I decided to [get a] divorce not because of physical wildness or something like that. I believe Ruffa too will agree with my decision. This is our personal life. I don't want to give more information about us."

He casually replied, "I think she is" when quizzed if he thinks Annabelle Rama was one of the reasons why his marriage with Ruffa caved in.

"I'm not blaming her because she's a mother and she doesn't know what is really our situation. Whatever Ruffa [tells] to her, she believes."

Taking a tough stance anew, Yilmaz then proceeded to let it know that he owes no one an apology, particularly to his mother-in-law.

"I think she is upset or angry [Annabelle]. But still I won't apologize to anybody," he ended. - Philippine Entertainment Portal

Pero bag-o pako kabasa ron,gi revealed na ni ruffa na kulatahon man daw sya nya gipakuryentehan pa gyud kuno sya...nya nisulti na man sya na nagpakasal gyud sya didto sa US before ni Yilmaz..ambot oy!kinsa kaha nagsulti og tinuod!

Quote from: yadz26 on June 08, 2007, 11:46:25 PM
so, whether ruffa is virgin or not., it's not really the issue..
it's not even cultural differences as what ruffa claim it was...
it's ruffa losing love and respect for her husband
and Yilmaz losing his money...

..........lolz.......
