instagram photos for january 2014

sharing these photos of my january. and fyi, january 5 is my birthday. God has been really good. through a lot of issues and struggles He has been faithful. 

january has come and gone and a lot of prayers has been answered. there are still some major ones that are lining up but whatever His answer to those heart-felt requests i know he has his purpose. i have been constantly reminded of this by the person i love that God's ways are not ours and that we just have to trust him.

i do trust him. i am learning to trust more. like the lady in the bible with a sick son that said to Jesus, "i have faith, help me to believe more"!

so here goes some of my january ig (@bossy11) moments.

week full in instagram :)

i've had a very busy past 2 weeks. juggling activities and schedules. it was a fantastic week; with lots of learning,  realizations and education.

 bachuchay playing outside SM mall while waiting for the ride.

 gin and tonic in the morning? lol

 i was accidentally thrown about to attend a child protection policy conference for compassion partners. i was not scheduled to but i end up appreciating it more than i expected. like many of the compassion's training programs, it made me re-evaluate my ministry and passion for the welfare of the children. 

 one sleepy moment during the conference. cheetos kept me alive.

 children's camp. 90 kids came and join. sleep over. too much hyper-activity in 20 hours. but the result is really life-changing. for the kids. for the staffs. for the australian visitors.

 output for children's artwork :)

 it rained 3 days out of 7 in one week. it was almost a storm. there was also a 7 point something earthquake. but we only felt a little shaking. thankful that it did not cause so much devastation like the last one though.

and i also had my first try of authentic korean food. spicy pork is awesome. and green chili is not as hot as i thought it would be.

 sleeping was a struggle. this was taken @ six in the morning. waiting for the sun rise.
