Devotion i

          "For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by his own Son in the likeness of sinful humanity to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in human flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the spirit"
                                                                                                                                 -Romans 8:3-4 (TNIV)
          
          Can you imagine how great and loving our Father Almighty is? He did all the great things for us. He even sacrificed his own Son just for our sake, in the most appropriate word, for our SALVATION. Can you imagine how vast is the sky ? God's love is more than that! No matter how many times you fail Him, He is still still ready and will always love us. His arms are always open wide open so that if we need him, there would always be a safe tower for us! But then some people are just so poignant that they don't appreciate all these things! We should always look up and say Thank you to Him for every moment in our lives is filled with glory and blessing. Let us not be hypocrites! Let us be a good Christian both in words and deeds.

You Got Me Lyrics- Colbie Caillat

Fathers' Day Special

                The parents are the best guardians in the family! They always do their best in order for them to provide the things that their children really need.They sacrifice a lot, they sometimes forget the necessity of themselves just for the sake of their beloved children. From the time the children needs something, their passion of love and giving desire for the need of their children. Not thinking of how hard for them to wake up very early just to kick up the day and fight the enticing drowsiness in the night just to provide something to the family. They forget their own needs, wellness, and sometimes encounter stress and anxiety because of the mind set that it is indeed for the future of the sons and daughters. One text message to them about the upcoming of tuition payment , about the projects, and other fees they would fall into their knees thinking where to get the money to meet up the deadline of payment. But LOOK! How sad that some of the youth doesn't value these things. My dear friends let us not wait for the time that our care for them would be left unseen and our words left unspoken.
             " There are often situations and times, when children forget to hug their dad, kiss and tell him that they love him like they do to their mothers. Most of us would agree that we assume our father to be the provider for the family. From the time, when we worship our beloved pops for all that he knew and all that he could, we move on to become a rebellious teenager, when we make it a point to argue about everything and anything that he advises to us."
           Take this time to say Happy Fathers' day to your Dad. Show to him that he is very special to you and you are very thankful for having him through the years! Time is gold my dear.. Come on ! Don't be shy... It is about time to give back to him what he had given to you! Love your Dad, for no matter how you turn or spin the world, he is still your dad.. Forever and ever!
           And to my Papa, I wish you all the best.. God bless you always.. Thank you so much ! I thank God for having you with us since the day I existed. Never lose hope because God will be with us always. I love you pa..I found no words sweeter than these.
            To all Daddies.. A special fathers' day to all of you.

         Mothers are the sweetest gift from Gods to us. There is no way we can ever really thank our mother for all she does for us nevertheless we must make it a habit to keep reminding ourselves of the various sacrifices she made while raising us. Mothers' Day is the best time to say in words how much you love and care for your mum. 

Make your Mother's Day bright by sending her your warmest and heartfelt messages. Come on...Don't shy. Think of some beautiful words, for we all all owe our Mothers a Big Thank You Message!!

Nostalgia Marketing
Secrets of Yesterday, Success of Tomorrow

            As I entered the venue for the said seminar, I was amazed with the decorations and preparations in the reception which is at the majestic SM Cinema 2. It was very obvious that the organizers spent a lot of time, effort and of course money just with the venue. Despite of the good decorations, I could not help myself from wondering why there was nothing nostalgic with the design of the venue. Probably I expected something like an old stuffs in the grand entrance. Something like old fashions. Well just not to post negative judgments with the seminar, I said to myself that the appearance doesn’t matter but the learning and knowledge we can get from the entire seminar is very essential. A couple of minute after our entrance, distinguished guests and personalities soon came to the spot. And after everything was set, the program came to start. The order of the ceremony went well. We watched the historical video of GMA-7’s Lupang Hinirang which was just so nostalgic and nationalistic as well. Professor Glova gave her warm welcome speech and a brief overview with the topic that we are about to discuss, and thus made me shiver with excitement. She even sang a portion of an old song which seemed familiar to me, and yes, Ma’am Glova has a nice voice. The first speaker is a manager of one of the branches of Savory. His approach for the Marketing was spelled in a four letter word, LUMA. Listen, Understand, Market and Apply which is I think just fit the theme of the seminar. I learned a lot from him because he customized his speech. The second speaker is the owner’s daughter of Kabayan Hotel, Ms. King made mention of the History of Kabayan Hotel, which was originally evolve from a seductive business venture, Anito. Their History wasn’t really nostalgic in fact it was more on Transformation. From a business that increases immorality they developed a business that will enrich the Filipino Culture like Close Family ties. According to her, they did a lot of restructuring just to change their environment like detaching the mirrors attached above the beds, which made me confuse, why?After that I realized that they really follow their Christian Faith and the true meaning of Marketing which is to satisfy the customers’ needs and not wants. The last speaker was from GMA-7 and she stressed out that the reason why they revive the old operas on Philippine TV is because of popularity and salability. I really learned a lot from The Nostalgia Marketing seminar like Nostalgia is a little bit risky but a challenging marketing strategy. And that the past of the business really contributes for the success of today’s business whether it is a good past that will challenge you to strive for more or a painful nostalgia that will motivate you as a stepping stone to change and make a difference out of yesterday’s fall.
