My birthday has concluded and I was taking a bath one morning, I told myself that I am going to write another blog for July 2025 which will be about redemption.
Last year was a sad phase on a friendship which lasted about more than 7 years. As I look back on it as of this writing, I thank God for the new-old-and-rekindled friendships (Glam), new ones (3MC), and a friendship (Jz) built on His will and ways. I wouldn't be able to have received unless I let go of the one that's holding me. I was also able to travel to a location I was to take on last year, this time-- on a much better state and company.
I am now sober from those things I used to drink and take. I am not taking melatonin to sleep as I am now able to sleep soundly at night, even with a coffee drink few hours prior my sleep. I have been able to have small wins on some challenges and concerns I was battling with. Not that I have fully attained victory-- it must still be covered in prayers all the more and often.
I am now 39. All I want is more of Him and less of me.
He is my redemption and I am redeemed.
I have finished the draft of Chapters 4 and 5 of my thesis and will enroll by next semester. I pray that God may grant me wisdom on how to defend my thesis on pre-orals and final so I could finally graduate from my Masters. I will give Him all the glory.
As for the work at GOC, I am still working on my bugs with all the focus and sincerity I have--hoping that someday, if not soon, all the hard work will pay off.
We're now reading the book of John after finishing Psalm 119. We've been praying many prayers each day, taking fasting meals, had communion, and I couldn't be more grateful for this. I am still a work in progress in many areas of my life. I know, I am not called to perfection but consistent growth.
This is a time of rest and remembering redemption and in this, I give Him all my praises and thanksgiving.
