AND I WILL HEAL THEIR LAND

THE ONLY HOPE FOR THE PHILIPPINES

by Father James Reuter, S.J.

By her own admission, GMA (Gloria Macapagal Arroyo) rightfully assessed that over the last decades; our republic has become one of the weakest, steadily left behind by its more progressive neighbors.' Forty years ago, we were only second to Japan in economic stature, and way ahead of Singapore , Hong Kong , Malaysia , and Thailand . Today, at our present growth rate, it will take us 30 years to get to where Thailand is.

1.. A population of 160 Million;

2. Of those, 70 to 90 million (equivalent to our current population) will live below the poverty line;


3. Our national debt is estimated to be at US$200B (compared to US$28B when Marcos fled, and US$53B today);


4. We will be competing, not against Thailand or even Vietnam , but against Bangladesh ;



5. We will be the most corrupt nation in Asia , if not in the world (we're already ranked 11th most corrupt nation by Transparency International) ...


The signs are clear. Our nation is headed towards an irreversible path of economic decline and moral decadence. It is not for lack of effort. We've seen many men and women of integrity in and out of government, NGOs, church groups & people's organization devote themselves to the task of nation-building, often times against insurmountable odds.


But not even two people's revolutions, bloodless as they may be, have made a dent in reversing this trend. At best, we have moved one step forward, but three steps backward.


We need a force far greater than our collective efforts, as a people, can ever hope to muster. It is time to move the battle to the spiritual realm.. It's time to claim GOD's promise of healing of the land for His people. It's time to gather GOD's people on its knees to pray for the economic recovery and moral reformation of our nation.


Is prayer really the answer? Before you dismiss this as just another rambling of a religious fanatic, I'd like you to consider some lessons we can glean from history.


England 's ascendancy to world power was preceded by the Reformation, a spiritual revival fueled by intense prayers.


The early American settlers built the foundation that would make it the most powerful nation today - a strong faith in GOD and a disciplined prayer life. Throughout its history, and especially at its major turning points, waves of revival and prayer movement swept across the land.

In recent times, we see Korea as a nation experiencing revival and in the process producing the largest Christian church in the world today, led by Rev. Paul Yongi Cho. No wonder it has emerged as a strong nation when other economies around it are faltering.


Even from a purely secular viewpoint, it makes a lot of sense. For here there is genuine humbling & seeking of GOD through prayer, moral reformation necessarily follows. And this, in turn, will lead to general prosperity. YES, we believe prayer can make a difference. It's our only hope.


Today, we launch this email brigade, to inform Filipinos from all over the world to pray, as a people, for the economic recovery and moral reformation of our nation. We do not ask for much. We only ask for 5 minutes of your time in a day, to fwd this email to your close friends and relatives.


This is the kind of unity which can make a big difference. Of course, if you feel strongly, as I do, about the power of prayer, you can be more involved by starting your own prayer group or prayer center.


We have tried people power twice; in both cases, it fell short. Maybe it's time to try prayer power. GOD never fails. Is there hope? YES! We can rely on God's promise, but we have to do our part. If we humble ourselves and pray as a people, GOD will heal our land. By GOD's grace, we may yet see a better future for our children.


'If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.'(2 Chronicles 7:14).


If you care for your children and grandchildren, PLEASE pass this on. .. ...


Let's not just abandon the Philippines

For my Olle

I love the way you look at me,
Your eyes so bright and blue.
I love the way you kiss me,
Your lips so soft and smooth.

I love the way you make me so happy,
And the ways you show you care.
I love the way you say, "I Love You,"
And the way you're always there.

I love the way you touch me,
Always sending chills down my spine.
I love that you are with me,
And glad that you are min

Simple Ways To Keep the Romance Alive

Touch Daily
Don’t have time for cuddling? Simple, everyday touches can keep you even more connected. Touch the small of your wife’s back as you pass her in the laundry room. Button your husband’s shirt as he dresses for work. Simple touches throughout the day can help you stay connected for a lifetime.

Get Hooked on a Series
Finding a TV show that the two of you can enjoy together can give you a reason to look forward to Wednesday afternoons. Lost has become a cult phenomenon for many married couples, giving them plenty of chatting time between episodes to swap theories . . . or discuss why Benjamin Linus gives them the hebby-ma-jebbies.

Leave One Sentence Love Notes
No time for Shakespeare quotes and hand crafted poetry? Make love note jotting simple by placing a stack of Post-It notes and a pen in the bathroom drawer. It only takes ten seconds of your time to jot down short but sweet gems such as “I love you” or “Good morning, beautiful” and place them on the bathroom mirror. It’s a great way to do something spectacularly romantic on a spectacularly tight schedule.

Get Dirty Together
Sorry, guys, we aren’t talking about the bedroom. Take to the yard with your sweetie and get knee high in yard work. Create a garden together. Plant a few seeds along the back porch and watch them grow. Planting a small row of flowers or veggies only takes about five to ten minutes and leaves you with a lifetime of beautiful memories. Caring for your garden daily is also a great do-together project that has great viewing benefits for a fragrant Sunday cuddle on the porch swing.

Pray Together
As the old saying goes, the family who prays together stays together. Counting your blessings aloud before bed each night is a wonderful way to remind your spouse how thankful you are for their love. Another perk of praying as a couple? Science has proven that prayer and meditation lowers your blood pressure thus not only reminding you of your blessings but making it possible for you to share them for many years to come.

Get Physical
Yes, men, now you can clap. No matter how busy life is, physical intimacy is a very important part of a lasting, healthy relationship. When you have children, finding the time to make love can be a difficult task but it can be done. Have little ones who are up when the rooster crows? Set the alarm clock a little before “cock-a-doodle-do” and have a before work romp in the hay. Got sneaky little someones in your house? Get creative . . . They’ll never find you in the garage!

Play Together
You know what they say about all work and no play! From a fast game of cards to a quick Guitar Hero jam out session on his XBOX 360, playing together brings you together. Playtime encourages flirtatious lingo, inside jokes to share over dinner and feelings of oneness that last all week long.


Children with parents who are playful with one another tend to be happier, more well rounded adults as they go out into the world. Seeing positive, healthy play between the two of you ensures that their own marriage will be twice as likely to stand the test of time.

When all else fails never underestimate the power of play.

While life may be rushed and hectic, we should always take time out to spend with our life partners, to count our blessings and strive daily to keep the magic in “I do.” So, when it comes to love and life this is our wish for you . . . may you enjoy the simple things everyday.

RIP Former President Cory Aquino

Former Philippine leader and democracy icon Corazon Aquino died Saturday following a cardiac arrest after battling colon cancer for more than a year, her son announced. She was 76.
"Our mother peacefully passed away at 3:18 am, August 1, 2009 of cardio-respiratory arrest," Senator Benigno Aquino Jr, said in a statement outside the Makati Medical Centre in Manila, where his mother had been hospitalised.

"She would have wanted us to thank each and every one of you for all the prayers and the continuous love and support," he said.

"It was her wish for all of us to pray for one another and for the country," Aquino said.
A close family friend, Boy Abunda, said funeral arrangements would be announced later in the day. He said Aquino had been surrounded by members of her immediate family when she died.
Friends and foes offered their condolences to the family, while the politically influential Roman Catholic church held special requiem masses.

Presidential spokesman Cerge Remonde said the government was declaring a "period of national mourning" as arrangements for a state funeral for Aquino were being made.
Oscar Cruz, a member of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), said Aquino was "God's greatest gift to us (Filipinos)."

"She symbolised freedom, justice and what is right," Cruz said. "Now that she has died, she is much bigger in memory. Let us thank God for giving us Tita (Aunt) Cory," he said, referring to the nickname by which the public fondly referred to Aquino.

Corazon Aquino was thrust into the whirlwind of high-stakes Philippine politics in 1983 when her husband, Benigno Aquino Jr., flew back to his homeland from self-exile in the United States only to be shot dead as he stepped off his plane at Manila airport.
His murder triggered massive ‘People Power’ street protests that culminated three years later in the toppling of longtime dictator Ferdinand Marcos, who had ruled the Philippines for 20 years with an iron hand.

Mrs Aquino was installed as president shortly after Marcos and his wife Imelda fled to Hawaii.
Best known as ‘Cory’, she was regarded as a symbol of the country's return to democracy, although her six-year term was marked by several bloody coup attempts.
Mrs Aquino was also a moral crusader -- after her presidential term ended in 1992, she kepot up her fight for reform, particularly against corruption.

In 2001 she also helped mobilize street protests against then President Joseph Estrada, an action movie hero self-confessed former womanizer and heavy drinker, who was ousted and charged with plundering a fortune through graft.
She reconciled with Estrada last year, and both of them joined street protests against current President Gloria Arroyo, whose family has also been accused of massive corruption.

Poetry of a heart once broken

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back. Some people are just not meant to be in your life, no matter how much you want them to be. You hug him goodbye like its nothing,while all you want to do is to hold on forever. I used to smile when i told people you are mine, but now I can't even smile and say your name at the same time. As much as I used to love you, I have to say goodbye. Cause i know its the best thing for us. Move on, life is a continuous struggle, you will find happiness when you meet someone whose really for you. I'm sorry if i made you cry, I'm sorry if tears fell from your eyes,but remember for every tear that fell from your eyes, two fell from mine. Missing you isn't the hardest part, knowing I once had you is what breaks my heart. I'll never forget the time we once shared and i'll always remember how much you once cared. NOW ITS OVER, its time to move on.
It's never easy to see you turning back, but I have to take the pain, and cry all the way home, cause i know it will never be the same. I know when you leave distance will keep us apart, but distance no matter how far, cant change these feelings in my heart. Just turn your head when you see me, I will understand. One day, you will be able to look me in my eyes without feeling the pain you've caused me.
I hope in time, I will bw happy as I call your name once again. Happiness is too far from us now, but even if its near, I know it will be hard for us to get there. Baby, its never gonna work out, I've once loved you and its goodbye.


To those who read this: This is not for my husband, this is for my ex boyfriend whom i always dreamed about.
I am happily married now and having a great time with the best man i've ever had. this is for him who will not be named, i have moved on and i hope you do too^^

For OLLE

This Ring

I've been waiting for this moment for so long
An answered prayer, I know you are the one
I give to you my heart and soul
With a love that will never grow old
In my life, I can see That you were made for me
You'll be there to catch me if I fall
All the days, I have prayed
And the love that I have saved
With this ring, I'm giving you my all
I thank God for the gift He has given me
A love that's strong for all of eternity
I give to you all of my days
With a love for all of your ways
In my life, I can see
That you were made for me
I'll be there to catch you if you fall
All the days, I have prayed
And the love that I have saved
With this ring, I'm giving you my all
In the days that we grow old
The times may change but our love will remain
As we look back on this day now
We stood the test of time
Living the promise of our vow
In my life, I can see
That you were made for me
I'll be there to catch you if you fall
All the days, I have prayed
And the love that I have saved
WIth this ring, I'm giving you my all...

Swedish version of ANAK by Freddie Aguilar

När du föddes in i denna världen
Din mamma och pappa såg en dröm uppfylls
Dream come true
Svaret på deras böner


Du var för dem en särskild barn
Gav dem glädje varje gång du ler
Varje gång du grät
De är på din sida till vård


Barn, du vet inte
Du vet aldrig hur långt de vill gå
För att ge er all sin kärlek kan ge
Om du vill se dig genom och Gud det är sant
De skulle dö för dig, om de behöver, att se dig här

Hur många säsonger kom och gick
Så många år har nu använt
För Temne sprang snabbt
Och nu äntligen du stark

Vad har fått över dig
Du verkar hatar dina föräldrar också
Vill tala din hjärna
Varför tycker du att de har fel

Barn du inte vet Du vet aldrig hur långt de vill gå
För att ge er all sin kärlek kan ge
Om du vill se dig genom och Gud det är sant
De skulle dö för dig, om de behöver, att se dig i närheten


Och nu din väg har gått vilse
Barn du inte är säker på vad jag ska göra eller säga
Du är så ensam
Inga vänner är på er sida


Och barnet du nu bryts ner i tårar
Låt dem köra bort din rädsla
Då måste du gå
Deras vapen hålla öppet hela


Barn du inte vet
Du vet aldrig hur långt de vill gå
För att ge er all sin kärlek kan ge
Om du vill se dig genom
Och Gud, det är sant
De skulle dö för dig, om de behöver, att se dig här

Barn du inte vet
Du vet aldrig hur långt de vill gå
För att ge er all sin kärlek kan ge
Om du vill se dig genom och Gud det är sant
De skulle dö för dig, om de behöver, att se dig här

God's Creation

In our crowded world
Who would understood
There's you and me
Who have that glee

When GOD made you
He might have been thinking of me too
I am for you and you are for me
Together till eternity

He made you to feel
And think to make me real
Cause without you
I will be blue

Everything doesn't matter
As long as we have each other
Forever we can
Forever we will

Trust him he knew
Say and he will do
Tell her, she will
Im for you, and its for real!

wedding last march 12

Efter ett år av väntan, jag satte sin fot i Sverige och inte veta vad som skulle bli min tur här i detta kalla land. Jag träffade den här mannen över filipinokisses.com och verkligen aldrig väntat att det skulle finnas kärlek som kommer att ske i den digitala relation. Vi har mycket olika varandra, vår typ av musik exempel, jag älskar älskar musik och ljuv musik samtidigt som han älskar rock n roll, blues. Vår smak av stil när det gäller hus grejer och jag minns när vi köpte denna matta som jag vill ha en färg svart och vit och han vill att färgen lila. (Ja, jag fortfarande vinna! Hehehe) Men trots våra skillnader vi fortfarande älskar varandra och vårda varandra som någon som vi älskar. Andra människor kan säga att vår kärlek är förbjuden orsaka han är gammal och jag är ung, han kan sjunga och jag kan inte han kan spela instrument och jag skränande han kan skriva låtar och jag skränande, men Gud har en plan för oss att vara tillsammans och vårdar varandra oavsett vad andra människor kan säga, det spelar ingen roll hur som helst detta är våra liv och vi är en som ska leva med det. Idag den 12 mars 2009 torsdag vid 12:00-tiden i mitten av dagen tog vi våra löften och väljer att leva tillsammans genom sjukdom och hälsa genom sorger och glädjeämnen, "Till döden skiljer oss åt ... Slutligen MR. och Mrs. ANDERSSON!

Shit day!

I hate this day. this day i could truly remember as long as i live.

Mr. and Mrs. Andersson

After a year of waiting, I set foot in Sweden not knowing what would be my luck here in this cold country. I met this man over filipinokisses.com and really never expected that there would be LOVE that will occur in that cyber relationship. We have much difference in each other, our type of music example, I love love songs and sweet music while HE loves rock n roll, blues. Our taste of style when it terms of house stuff and I remember when we bought this carpet that I want to have a color black and white and HE wants the color purple. ( well, I still win!hehehe )
But despite of our difference we still LOVE each other and cherish each other as someone that we love. Other people might say that our love is prohibited cause he's old and I'm young, he can sing and I can't he can play instrument and I cant he can write song and I cant, but still GOD has a plan for us to be together and cherish each other no matter what the other people may say, it doesn't matter anyway this is our life and we are the one whose gonna live with it. Today March 12, 2009 thursday at 12:00 o'clock in the mid day we took our vows and choose to live together through sickness and in health through sorrows and joys, 'Till death do us part... FINALLY MR. and MRS. ANDERSSON!

Message from tatay richard

Our Lord God is never late nor early.
His timing is perfect!
Subject: "Before they call, I will answer." (Isaiah 65:24)

This beautiful story was written by a doctor who worked in Africa . One night I had worked hard to help a mother in the labor ward; but in spite of all we could do, she died, leaving us with a tiny, premature baby and a crying two-year-old daughter. We would have difficulty keeping the baby alive, as we had no incubator (we had no electricity to run an incubator) . We also had no special feeding facilities.Although we lived on the equator, nights were often chilly with treacherous drafts. One student midwife went for the box we had for such babies and the cotton wool that the baby would be wrapped in. Another went to stoke up the fire and fill a hot water bottle. She came back shortly in distress to tell me that in filling the bottle, it had burst (rubber perishes easily in tropical climates ). "And it is our last hot water bottle!" she exclaimed. As in theWest, it is no good crying over spilled milk, so in Central Africa it might be considered no good crying over burst water bottles. They do not grow on trees, and there are no drugstores down forest pathways. "All right," I said, "put the baby as near the fire as yousafely can, and sleep between the baby and the door to keep it free from drafts. Your job is to keep the baby warm." The following noon , as I did most days, I went to have prayers with any of the orphanage children who chose to gather with me. I gave the youngsters various suggestions of things to pray about and told them about the tiny baby. I explained our problem about keeping the baby warm enough, mentioning the hot water bottle, and that the baby could so easily die if it got chills. I also told them of the two-year-old sister, crying because her mother had died. During prayer time, one ten -year-old girl, Ruth, prayed with the usual blunt conciseness of our African children. "Please, God" sheprayed, "Send us a hot water bottle today. It'll be no good tomorrow, God,as the baby will be dead, so please send it this afternoon." While I gasped inwardly at the audacity of the prayer, she added, "And while You are about it, would You please send a dolly for the little girl so she'll know You really love her?" As often with children's prayers, I was put on the spot. Could I honestly say "Amen"? I just did not believe that God could do this. Oh,yes, I know that He can do everything; the Bible says so. But there are limits, aren't there? The only way God could answer this particular prayer would be by sending me a parcel from the homeland. I had been in Africa for almost four years at that time, and I had never, ever, received a parcel from home. Anyway, if anyone did send me a parcel, who would put in a hot water bottle? I lived on the equator! Halfway through the afternoon, while I was teaching in the nurses' training school, a message was sent that there was a car at my front door. By the time I reached home, the car had gone, but there on the verandah was a large 22-pound parcel. I felt tears pricking my eyes. I could not open the parcel alone, so I sent for the orphanage children. Together we pulled off the string, carefully undoing each knot. We folded the paper, taking care not to tear it unduly. Excitement was mounting. Some thirty or forty pairs of eyes were focused on the large cardboard box. >From the top, I lifted out brightly-colored, knitted jerseys. Eyes sparkled as I gave them out. Then there were the knitted bandages for the leprosy patients, and the children looked a little bored. Then came a box of mixed raisins and sultanas - that would make a batch of buns for the weekend. Then, as I put my hand in again, I felt the.....could it really be? I grasped it and pulled it out. Yes, a brand new, rubber hot water bottle. I cried. I had not asked God to send it; I had not truly believed that He could. Ruth was in the front row of the children. She rushed forward, crying out, "If God has sent the bottle, He must have sent the dolly,too!" Rummaging down to the bottom of the box, she pulled out the small, beautifully- dressed dolly. Her eyes shone! She had never doubted! Looking up at me, she asked: "Can I go over with you and give this dolly to that little girl, so she'll know that Jesus really loves her?" Of course, I replied! That parcel had been on the way for fiv e whole months, packed up by my former Sunday school class, whose leader had heard and obeyed God's prompting to send a hot water bottle, even to the equator. And one of the girls had put in a dolly for an African child - five months before, in answer to the believing prayer of a ten-year-old to bring it "that afternoon." "Before they call, I will answer." (Isaiah 65:24) When you receive this, please pray the prayer below. That's all you have to do. No strings attached. Just send it on to whomever you want - but please do send it on. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost, but a lot of rewards. Let's continue praying for one another. This awesome prayer takes less than a minute. "Heavenly Father, I ask You to bless my friends reading this. I ask You to minister to their spirit. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubting, release a renewed confidence to work through them. Where there is tiredness or exhaustion, I ask You to give them understanding, guidance, and strength. Where there is fear, reveal Your love and release to them Your courage. Bless their finances, give them greater vision, and raise up leaders and friends to support and encourage them. Give each of them discernment to recognize the evil forces around them and reveal to them the power they have in You to defeat it. I ask You to do these things in Jesus' name. Amen" P.S. Passing this on to anyone you consider a friend will bless you both. Passing this on to one not considered a friend is something Christ would do.

Every women is beautiful

A little boy asked his mother, "Why are you crying?"

"Because I'm a woman", she told him.

"I don't understand", he said.


His mum just hugged him and said, " And you never will"..


Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"


"All women cry for no reason" was all his dad could say.


The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.

Finally he put in a call to God; when God got on the phone, the man said, "God, why women cry so easily?"


God said, "When I made women she had to be special. I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world; yet, gentle enough to give comfort.


I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times come from her children.


I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.


I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt them very badly.


This same sensitivity helps her make a child's boo hoo feel better and shares in their teenagers' anxieties and fears.


I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.

And finally I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides."

Every woman is beautiful.

INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY!

International Women's Day 2009 Theme
Each year around the world, International Women's Day (IWD) is celebrated on March 8. Hundreds of events occur not just on this day but throughout March to mark the economic, political and social achievements of women.
Organisations, governments and women's groups around the world choose different themes each year that reflect global and local gender issues.
Some years have seen global IWD themes honoured around the world, while in other years groups have preferred to 'localise' their own themes to make them more specific and relevant.
THEME: So while many people may think there is one global theme each year, this is not always correct. It is completely up to each country and group as to what appropriate theme they select.
Below are some of the global United Nation themes used for International Women's Day to date:
- 2009: Women and men united to end violence against women and girls- 2008: Investing in Women and Girls- 2007: Ending Impunity for Violence against Women and Girls- 2006: Women in decision-making- 2005: Gender Equality Beyond 2005: Building a More Secure Future- 2004: Women and HIV/AIDS- 2003: Gender Equality and the Millennium Development Goals- 2002: Afghan Women Today: Realities and Opportunities- 2001: Women and Peace: Women Managing Conflicts- 2000: Women Uniting for Peace- 1999: World Free of Violence against Women- 1998: Women and Human Rights- 1997: Women at the Peace Table- 1996: Celebrating the Past, Planning for the Future

Olle in Wikipedia...

Edsbyn är en tätort i sydligaste Hälsingland samt centralort i Ovanåkers kommun, Gävleborgs län. Gränsar till Rättviks kommun.
Edsbyn är mest känd för sin skidtillverkningsindustri och som ett stort bandyfäste. Sportklubben Edsbyns IF, som tidigare spelade sina bandymatcherÖns IP, använder sedan den 22 september 2003 Sveriges första bandyhall, "Dina Arena", även känd som "bandykyrkan", belägen på samma plats som den tidigare bandyplanen. Edsbyn har vunnit fem SM-guld i rad sedan arenan kom till.
Genom tätorten rinner älven Voxnan som har sina källflöden i Härjedalen och rinner upp strax sydöst om Sveg vid Siksjön.
Jakt och fiske är vanliga fritidsysselsättningar hos edsbybor. På vintern är de många skoterlederna välanvända. Ett vanligt skoterutflyktsmål är Räkaklitt, Ovanåkers kommuns högsta berg.
Det finns flera naturnära aktiviteter för turister såsom bäversafari, björnskådning, guldgrävarskola eller paddling för att nämna några.
Den svenske konstnären, autodidakten och naivisten Lim-Johan (född 1865 - död 1944) bodde i byn Kyan strax utanför Edsbyn, där han försörjde sig som dagsverkare, laggkärlstillverkare och fotograf.
Andra kända personer från orten är fotografen och författaren Hans Lidman, programledaren Orvar Säfström, musikern Robert Eriksson och den store musikern Olle Andersson, trubadur och singer/songwriter.
Edsbyn är också känt för sina industrier som till exempel Edsbyns kontorsmöbler, Svenska Fönster, SNA Europe och Träförädlingen (Nuvarande vid namn Plyfa). Edsbyns första industri var en smedja som fanns i Ullungsfors
