Regardless of our lack of understanding of the whole truth behind God’s commandment, still, we faithfully trusted in it, that we will benefit from obeying it.
- E.F.S.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.
HEBREWS 11:1
And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.Jeremiah 3:8
 ... There is no contradiction in the preceding verses that I have cited. We have to laugh. We have to cry. It depends upon the situation. It is natural. It is healthy. So, the Bible speaks the truth! Why the Bible? Think it over and over again. History and archeology also proves the authenticity of the Bible. Findings in archeology have proven so many times that what is recorded in the Bible are actual facts and truth. Roman coins found in Samaria authenticates the records in Matthew 22:17-21. The discovery of the tunnel built by King Hezekiah authenticates the passages written in the book of Kings. [read more...]
 Just to be with a friend when he needs you, somehow, it could make things betterShe was there, a familiar face he had not seen for a long time. She couldn't do anything, though, not even hug him. It was only her presence; she just sat there and listened. Wasn't much of a help, really. She wanted to say something, but she knew better than to scold him for whatever he had or had not done. After all, she had her shortcomings too. She just wanted to remind him that he's still got her and everyone else in his old pack.
It wasn't much, but still something.
When i say No, and it's plain No, that means NO. Just NO. Only NO. No, No, NO.
But when i say Uhm... no -- well, that means nagpapapilit lang ako. Pag pinilit ako na may kasamang Please, i'll probably say Yes. Yah, most probably it's a Yes. But without Please, i might say Uhm... sige na nga.
ayan. malamang wala nang makikipag usap sakin. i might as well talk to the hand nalang.
And becuz there's always something under someone's mattress, don't expect i don't have one. Basta. You won't know till you grow up. Just shut up, keep your nose clean and everything will be okay.

_sheila said, "you do stupid things by yourself, and when you mess up you come running to us"_then marj went like, "yah, that's what you're good at"_and jeff told me, "you make simple things complicated"
_here's one from jeffsam - "learn to control your mood swings"eh? Really? Okay, i make a big deal out of simple things. And i'm only good at messing up. Plus i can't handle my mood swings. I guess they know me well enough to say those things to me. Right. Exactly what i need. I need them to kick my butt once in a while for me to behave. I'm just full of trouble sometimes._then there goes vincent: "always be a good girl."ha! we'll see about that. i can be a good girl, yes, but not always, as in always always. _but nothing beats fran - "take care. there are dragons everywhere."
Summer na naman! At this time it's supposed to be melting hot. But why... why... why on earth am i wearing my sweater? (it's called climate change, baby. Climate change)
Cool!  I don't like summer anyway. I don't like hot weather. Madali akong mainitan, madali rin akong ginawin. But i'd rather it's cold than hot. Freezing cold, as in hindi ako makakagalaw sa sobrang lamig. I know it's painful, but it's a kind of pain I like. Sabi ni Kuya Manny na nasa KSA ngayon, kung hindi ko pa raw nararanasan yung 15 degress mas lalong hindi ako makakatagal sa below zero. Eh basta. I don't like summer parin.
- kasi pag malamig it's a good excuse to hug someone. haayy... i'll hug my teddy bear
- and i can sleep comfortably under my thick blanket. I love my thick blanket. The orange one from Kuwait
- Sabi ni Kuya Vincent masarap daw mag-coffee kasi anlamig. Sige, kahit maligo ka pa sa kape!
- on cold weather i can run, run and RUN without sweating too much. I can play soccer HARDER with my little cousin and her friends
- i'm more prone to pimples during summer. Masakit sa balat!
Sometimes I wish summer would never come. But it has to come. Of course, it has to come -- to give way for indian mangoes and Jolly Shakes! See, things always have their good side. 
Circulating via email, the text of a speech allegedly given by Bill Gates in which he sets out 11 rules of life for today's high school students
BILL GATES' SPEECH TO MT. WHITNEY HIGH SCHOOL in Visalia, California.
Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this!
To anyone with kids of any age, here's some advice. Bill Gates gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!
Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping - they called it opportunity.
Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

my heart jumps every time the phone rings
wishing it's you on the other line
i pick up the receiver to hear your
warm hello and it makes me smile
i know you're always here to keep in touch
still, i miss you every day
and every little thing that makes my heart melt
and how you make me weak with your sweet ways and you never fail to make me smile
and i want you to stay for just a while
cuz i feel special when you're right here by my side anytime you need me
i'll come running into you
and give you what you ask for
and with you here,
i just lose my sense of time
you give me what i long for then my monitor beeps and it's your mail
asking me how my day has been
i touch the screen as i read your message
wishing it were your hands i feel
with your every word that's written,
i could see you smile at me
i wonder if you ever take the moment
to think of me smiling back at you
and you take just a little time to let me know
and i can't stand it when you need to go
even when you're far, i feel the love you always show
so i just take every chance i have with you
only to make it better
then i could breathe
and take in all my thoughts of you
in my heart forever

This pion's quarks are so tightly packed that they nearly cancel each other's color charge, allowing the pion to slip through the nucleus without interacting, an effect now seen at the lowest possible energies.

FEB. 3 2008 Light Echoes from V838 MonCredit: NASA and the Hubble Heritage Team (AURA/STScI) What caused this outburst of V838 Mon? For reasons unknown, star V838 Mon's outer surface suddenly greatly expanded with the result that it became the brightest star in the entire Milky Way Galaxy in January 2002. Then, just as suddenly, it faded. A stellar flash like this has never been seen before -- supernovas and novas expel matter out into space. Although the V838 Mon flash appears to expel material into space, what is seen in the above image from the Hubble Space Telescope is actually an outwardly moving light echo of the bright flash. In a light echo, light from the flash is reflected by successively more distant rings in the complex array of ambient interstellar dust that already surrounded the star. V838 Mon lies about 20,000 light years away toward the constellation of the unicorn (Monoceros), while the light echo above spans about six light years in diameter.

 ***This was my speech in college, for my subject Speech and Play Production. My professor said i was monotonous. Didn't matter. Anyway the message was more important than the delivery.Hit it -In various passages throughout the Bible, God reveals many answers to the riddles of science. Each verse is yet another piece of the enigmatic Bible-science puzzle. Together they support each other, strengthen our argument for the existence of a divine Creator, and reveal that the holy Bible can withstand the scrutiny of today's scientific challenges.In biology, we studied early life on earth, and we learned that plants preceded animals, animal life began in the sea, and finally, human beings came to existence. The chapter one in Genesis supports this, stating that the creation of plants was in the Third Day, before the creation of animals which was in the Fifth Day.Furthermore, science has learned that the first animal life appeared in the oceans. This correlates nicely with the Biblical record where the first mention of animals in the Bible places them in the Earth's waters. And finally, the Bible claims that humans were God's final creation, which was on the Sixth Day. Science agrees, maintaining that millions of years, and millions of creature of the air, land and sea would come, before human beings finally arrived.
Genesis 1:11 (plants preceded animals)
Genesis 1:20 (animal life began in the sea)
Genesis 1:26 (creation of man)
Some passages in the Bible not only support the beginning of life, but they present the Bible as being scientifically accurate at a time when its authors were not scientifically expert or had no knowledge of the scientific facts that we understand today. For instance, when at times that the earth was believed to be flat, prophet Isaiah already wrote that the earth is round. The existence of space was mentioned by Job in the Old Testament. The basic stages of the water cycle are described in the book of Job and Ecclesiastes.
Isaiah 40:22 (spherical earth)
Job 26:7 (existence of space)
hydrologic cycle:
Job 36:27-28
Job 26:8
Ecclesiastes 1:6-7
Why then, do most people think that science and Bible are not related? It's because they only rely on scientific facts and disregard the Biblical truths. They believe so much in unproven theories, when the proof is written in the Bible, if they will only seek it.
Isaiah 34:16
Both the natural world, which we study through science, and the Bible were created by God, so both must be mutually consistent. Wherever a discrepancy seems to exists, either a scientist of a theologian -- maybe both -- hasn't been doing his job. Basic logic tells us that every house declares a builder. As a Christian and a scientist, I believe that the Bible is concrete evidence on how the world works -- from a single cell organism to the vast galaxies in the universe. For once again, the science and Holy Bible is in perfect harmony.SOURCE:Holy Scripture Supported by Modern Science; by Jim SchicatanoContact; by Carl Sagan
