Amen!!!
"I'm trading my sorrow, I'm trading my shame... I'm wieghing them down for the joy of the Lord...I'm trading my sickness, I'm trading my pain... I'm weighing them down for the joy of the Lord...... I'm blessed beyond the cursed, persecuted, not abandoned, struck down but not destroyed... I'm blessed beyond the cursed and His promise will endure, and His joy's gonna be my strength...... Though the sorrow may last for a night, the joy comes in the morning...... I sing, Yes Lord, Yes lord, Yes, Yes Lord... Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes, Yes Lord... Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes, Yes Lord, Amen!!!"

This is an excerpt from one of my favorite Christian songs. I just want to share it to you (the reader) because I've always been motivated through hardships in life because of one reason. God. There comes one of those times that I'm really down, I don't know what to do, and all I can do was think of what the Lord has done to me. I've always seen His wonders working around, and undoubtly, I do believe in Him.
Being in Philippine Science is hard and tedious. I admit it. Sometimes, I would cry because I cannot absorb all those lessons I'm studying in my brain. Despite all of those, I'm thankful to our Lord that He has supported me all throughout my stay in Pisay and now, still continuous to support. I knew He has placed me there for a reason, and I know He will do anything to make me succeed.
I thank the Lord a lot! What would I do without Him? I'm so blessed to have a God like Him. I'm so thankful to be a Christian. He is the greatest God I can ever have. He gave me and you everything for our salvation! So, to God, I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH! AMEN! AND AMEN!!!
