    Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)

    The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

    @nikkilapan sis alam mo di kita kilala!!! pero masayang masaya kami ng mom in law ko for you promise. nakasubaybay kasi kami sa mga ano pang mapapagdaaanan mo kaya extra careful kami sa pagsusubmit ng visa application namin. oo tama tiwala lang kay God. May reason para i hold ka ng 8 months bago mo makuha yang visa mo. Hindi talaga natin hawak eh, si Lord pa ren ang mananaig. Nako sis, ang saya ko today! dahil dyan magluluto ako ng spaghetti!!! :D :D :D

    Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)

    The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.
