HAPPY 56TH BIRTHDAY PAPANG!

Today is the special day of my father. Happy 56th Birthday Papang!

You're the best father in the world. I may not see you as often as I want but I always see you in my heart. Thank you for being a good father to us since our birth and up to now. Thank you for raising us very well.

You know my father is very quiet. You can count the words coming from his mouth. BEWARE!. When he gets angry, it's like that there's a fire burning.

I am not used to sharing stories with my father. My brothers and sisters do the same. It's like that he's a stranger to us, not knowing he's our father. He talks less but he cares much. And we are very thankful for that.

Happy Happy Birthday Papang! I wish you Good Health and more strength from God. Your sons and daughters are always here for you no matter what. We are very grateful because you are our father. Thank you again and again for being good to us, for being the father everyone is wishing for. We love you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPANG!

 WHAT I HAVE DONE FOR CHRIST?

I have done lots of things for Christ but most of them are bad. Most of the time I ignore His presence may it be in work, in my adventures and escapades, in my loneliness and some other things. I did inhumane things to other people. Doing things to other people is also doing these things to Christ.

But I believe that Christ will not turn back on me despite of those wrongdoings. I believe Christ is always upon me.

WHAT I AM DOING FOR CHRIST?

I am ignoring Christ most of the time due to hectic skeds and lack of time. I am turning my back on Him. I rarely attend Sunday masses. I do not even pray all the time. I am inconsiderate to other people. I am doing thins which is against God's will.

 WHAT WILL I DO FOR CHRIST?

I will make Christ the center of my undertakings. I will offer to Him the blessings I received from Him everyday. I will thank Him for protecting me and my family as well. I will ask for for forgiveness for the inappropriate things I've done. I will give him my deepest prayers and sacrifices. I will love God forever.

Yahweh, I know you are near,

Yahweh, I know you are near,
standing always at my side.
You guard me from the foe,
and you lead me in ways everlasting.

Lord, you have searched my heart,

and you know when I sit and when I stand.

Your hand is upon me protecting me from death,

keeping me from harm.

Lord, you have searched my heart,
and you know when I sit and when I stand.
Your hand is upon me protecting me from death,
keeping me from harm.

Where can I run from Your love?
If I climb to the heavens You are there;
If I fly to the sunrise or sail beyond the sea,
still I'd find You there.

You know my heart and its ways,
you who formed me before I was born
in the secret of darkness before I saw the sun
in my mother's womb.

Marvelous to me are Your works;
how profound are Your thoughts, my Lord.
Even if I could count them, they number as the stars,
You would still be there.

I LOVE YOU NO MORE


Hopeless days, desperate moments,

you were there making me confident.

I treasure the love you share,

In sadness, you always care.

I gave no love; I gave no feeling at all

Your love for me is insurmountable.

You came and I wasn’t there,

You saved me and I didn’t care.

                                                          

Sleepless nights, I don’t think of you

In time of gladness, I don’t remember you.

Despite the love you tend

I don’t love you ‘till the end.

You grieved waiting for love in return,

no more, no more… you were torn.

You did everything but me, I did nothing

I am just thankful for everything.

Let me go, I can’t give you back.

I never did, I didn’t make you glad.

I’m sorry, What I am for?

 Just let it here, I love you no more.

dOnT giVe uP!...

Don't give up.....

      One day I decided to quit...
      I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality. .. I wanted to quit my life.
      I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
       "God", I asked, "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"
      His answer surprised me...
      "Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"
       "Yes", I replied.
      "When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.
       I gave them light.
       I gave them water.
      The fern quickly grew from the earth.
       Its brilliant green covered the floor.
       Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.
      In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
      And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said.
      "In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.
       But I would not quit.
       In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would
      not quit." He said.
        "Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared
       to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. ..But just 6
        months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
        It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.
       I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."
      He asked me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots".
       "I would not quit on the bamboo.
      I will never quit on you."
      "Don't compare yourself to others."
      He said.
      "The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern.
       Yet they both make the forest beautiful."
      "Your time will come", God said to me.
       "You will rise high"
      "How high should I rise?"
       I asked.
      "How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.
      "As high as it can?" I questioned.
      "Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."
      I left the forest and brought back this story.
      I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.
      Never, Never, Never Give up.
      For the Christian Prayer is not an option but an opportunity.
      Don't tell the Lord how big the problem is,
      tell the problem how Great the Lord is!

Claret Seminary Search-In

St. Anthony Mary Claret Seminary

A Call from St. Anthony Mary Claret

Claret Seminary Orientation Search-In

December 27-30, 2001

St. Anthony Mary Claret College Seminary

Brgy. Culiat, Tandang Sora, Quezon City

This event of my life happened almost a decade ago. During this time, I was about to respond to God's call for me, maybe to serve Him, and other people as well. It is in this Search-In that I have to verify what's being asked for me by the Lord.

I have gained friends from this Search-In. They are long-lost friends of mine for we do not see each other for the longest time. I couldn't forget witty Alex and Cesar, the Linkin' Park fanatic Marc Rojano (Naga), my roommate Reiner Porto (Laguna), Edsel (I have seen him in Megamall wayback 2007), Maxcell Tabangcora (Quezon), Gil Manalo (Sariaya, Quezon), Jeff Garchitorena (Naga), John Marco Mercado (Butuan City), Carlos Ceasar Cruz, Oswald Duran, Jake Hidalgo (La Union), Wylmond San Juan, Fr. Lito, Fr. Mau, Fr. Blanco & Mrs. Wilma Sako. All of them were very accommodating that time. They have made a spark in my life that I really treasure until now. To all of them, Thank you very much for gracing an important event in my life. I really miss our bonding. I hope to see you again one of these days though we'ere contacting few from us through Facebook.

With these 3 and a half days encounter with the Lord, I came to live along with God's teachings and examples. It's not necessary to be a Priest or a servant just to become sacred and be with the Lord. As long as you are doing things right with God's empowerment, you'll be one of Christ's good followers. I have sinked this in my mind and in my heart with God giving me ways of Christian Living.

"Lord, you have searched my heart

and you know where I sit and when I stand.

Your heart is upon me,

protecting me from death, keeping me from harm."

Fr. Alvin's 7th Priestly Anniversary

"I am a servant according to the gift of God's grace."

God's gift of Grace

May 14, 2011 – This is a great day for our family as we celebrate the 7^th Priestly Anniversary of our elder brother FR. ALVIN ABERION. We are blessed that a member of our family is wholeheartedly serving the Lord with insurmountable sacrifices.  I myself feel blessed for having a brother like him who consoles each one of us, to his parishioners as well.  We are glad that he is with the Lord happy and contented. My parents, brothers and sisters are deeply praying that he will continue to serve God with all his heart and passion.

Thank you Manong Alvin for all the kindness and love you are sharing with us.
