Crucifixion -- reenactment ritual

Image
Crucifixion reenactment. Every holy week we as Christians commemorates the death of Christ. some people fasts days before or until good friday in cleansing one's sinful self, in the belief that this could purify souls or cleanse as it suggests. Others do the reenactment of how Jesus being crucified. Inflict themselves and crucified on the cross. Jesus, as a sacrificial lamb , had been crucified and died. After three days he rose from the dead, conquering the power of death. He ascended to heaven along with the other sinners he took away with him from hell. He saved them from the torment and punishments and brought back to heaven. In our faith as a Christians, most people if not few reenacted the crucifixion of Christ. Which is for me is debatable. Yes, you may frowned and would not agree with me. The reenactment can cause a debate to some and disagreement for others, tides of opinions may raise. Infliction to one's self and be crucified can be a contradiction to what Je...

Work-cation in Bagiuo ( 2018 )

Image
Baguio is one of my ideal places to stay whether for a vacation or work not only because of its cold weather but because of so many things. Let me enumerate some of the things i really want that makes me baguio an ideal place to stay. 1. Food is cheap I am not into fast food. That is not what i want to say here. If you try to buy something like veges in the baguio market you can find so cheap here. Unlike in lowlands the price of the veges here in baguio is more than half of a price compare to lowlands. 2.Garments Since Baguio is cold even midday you need to have clothes that make yourself warmer feeling. I am honestly talking about jackets, boots , long sleeves and the like. Yeah, it is cheap here. You could just buy one of these ranging from about 20 pesos and up. 3. Meats and seafoods As i mentioned these are cheap here. Yeah perhaps this is province. But this the place you would dream to live the rest of your life. if you want to have your stay-cation...

A vision of heaven's stairway

Image
My vision of a stairway to heaven In 2011, I had this vision of heavenly stair. I saw people ascending in the middle and descending both sides. A three way stairs which I find it so very peculiar. People were keep on ascending and descending and they seems they don't see me I was there stood still was staring at them, observing them. I never talk to anyone , or never had a chance since I was few steps away from these people whose going up and down the stair. This is might be similar to the dream of Jacob ( Genesis 28:12). The only thing that differ from it is that in  Jacob's dream he saw angels going up and down the ladder. Jesus Christ our lord is the way to heaven. In this dream Jesus might show me that the only way (stair, ladder, bridge )to the father is him. ( John 14:6) which all people must know. He is the truth, that everything we hear from him is true. and he is the life. Life with Jesus is immeasurable this refers to the happiness and joy we may...

JESUS in THE CLOUDS Most people dream and sometimes they forget to recall their dreams after waking up. But some were able to recall even write on their dream journal their dreams. Last night,I dreamt this peculiar dreamt I never dreamt before. In my dream I was riding with a trycycle going home when suddenly i saw a formation of clouds depicting the images of Jesus Christ and Mama Mary. I tend to stop the trycycle so that I can take pictures of the clouds that has a form of a statue of Jesus christ. And Mary the mother of God I saw these clouds moving and seems like they are in procession. I saw also other people whose also with Jesus. They are so white like a snow. As I was enjoying taking the view in the sky suddenly these clouds disappeared the Images of Jesus and Mama Mary and other people are also disappeared.. And the number of jet planes or war planes began filling in the air ,. The clouds became dark and It seems to me there is a war going on.  ...

Mt. Ulap Mountain hiking is in my bucket list. It is a sister of spelunking, to say the least. What i was saying here,being an adventurous type of person i do all these. In the province of Aklan mountain hike is but a normal habit. We used to hike ,just to get fruits and stuffs. We also do the caving and enjoys the view of stalagmite and stalactites inside the caves. Here in Mt. Ulap we got a chance to hike with the invitation of my co workers, and i was pretty excited to hike to a place where it is unknown to me. We rented a van from manila to baguio and travelled as normal as 5 to 6 hours to reach the summer capital of the Philippines. It was December 16th 2018, when we decided to go the hiking.It was too cold than normal and we got to be prepared for it.

There are only two seasons in the Philippines, Summer day and rainy day. Summer starts in March to May, whereas rainy season starts in June to October and sometimes until January. Summer has ended and rainy days became a problem of most people. Specially when they're living in a place where flood is most occured. This is also a burden to most students and workers because of the floods and the things they can get from rainy days. Not only an ordinary rainy seasons but this is the season where typhoons are mostly occured. And you know how disturbing it is and dangerous as well. I had this one experience , in 2012 where i worked in malate and the typhoon Ondoy struck the country. It was like a lake of flood during that time. There were no transportations, such as trains, buses or jeepneys are operating. From malate , all the way to Pedro gil , we had to walk , or.else what shall we do, the flood wont subside in just a day. We had to plunge in to the knee-high flood or so, to get...

Metro Manila lockdown Hi guys! It is so scary weekends , scary because everyone is getting panicky of the current situations we are having. In the past few weeks or months we have been horrified by the news circulating about this virus and the fear  intensifies   in coming days.  We all know and have watched our President announcement on locking down the Metro , due to this corona outbreak.

You will never know until when and where you will be safe against this deadly disease and in no time anyone can be a victim. Early this morning i was at the puregold to buy my regular grocery items, and know what, the entrance of the supermarket were being populated with these people who are panic buying.
