Yesterday I went to another city and spent some time with God. 😁 Say whuuut? 😆
Yes folks I went there to join some people to pray. Now am not sure if I should actually write about it and share the group here. 🤔
Actually most people don't even know they exist. I mean I never knew about them until I did a search online last year.
Anyway here they are during the Holy Hour. Say hi to Jesus as the Blessed Sacrament/Holy Eucharist on the altar. 😁
After we were done praying, the org leader (a religious sister whom I will call Sr. M) set aside three of us from the rest of the group because we had to finish the... I forgot what it's called, some kinda talk on the Catholic organization we were joining. It was actually the last part before we will be accepted into the group. Oh la la...
Dunno when the ceremony of acceptance will be so anyway after the lecture we went back to the rest of the women and Sr. M facilitated an activity. No pics tho.
Afterwards, the best part is always the free food. Hahahaha. Sorry I didn't take any photos because I just enjoyed eating the palabok, saba, and some kinda bread with hotdog. Yummm. And then we drank pineapple juice. Ah what a good day. 😂 Thank You Lord for Your mercy and grace and love!
Once everyone was done eating and chatting, I went ahead and left so I can get to church before 6 pm. And I had to walk from the sisters' place all the way to the jeepney station. That was more than 1 km!
So I guess more than that is the key to reaching 10k steps huh? Because last time that's also the distance I walked to reach past 9k steps.
Oh by the way, guess which city I went to?
I love how the sky is unobstructed by anything. 😍 Have you ever been here?
Been coming here since last month and yet it's the first time I noticed that Instagrammable sign. Haha. Well now you know where I went!
The best part of it all is the cleanliness of the public places. I mean look at the streets!!! So clean wow! 😍
It's like, when you see something like a piece of plastic or paper littered by someone you will feel like you should pick it up and put it in the trash can somewhere because if not it's quite an eyesore. (That's actually what I did.)
As I neared this highway with jeepneys going back to Quezon City, for the first time ever, I cared and picked up one or two pieces of trash that were carelessly thrown by whoever passed by the way toward or away from the jeepney loading station.
Would I do such in our own city? Hah. I am not that much of a saint yet. Too much trash everywhere I won't have time for anything else.
And of course I'm assuming those people who littered were not from Marikina at all. Most likely those who are returning to Quezon City or Manila City are the probable culprits. 😂 Ah if only there were more people who cared about the environment and other people huh.
I really commend the late Bayani Fernando for being able to discipline the entire city of Marikina. Now they are such model citizens in terms of cleanliness even after how many years! Like maybe 30 years already? So amazing! 👏👏👏
Let us pray everyday that we will have more leaders who are responsible and truly committed to serving the people like Bayani Fernando and others. 🙏 We need to pray to have such leaders.
Good governance will be given to us if we ask God for it because otherwise only the very corrupt people will be around running the government.
So anyway after taking street photos while waiting for a jeepney I was able to finally ride one. Back to Quezon City we went soI could participate in the mass. And then I visited Jesus in the adoration chapel again.
Prayer is important but daily prayer and spending time with Jesus is more important because He can change our lives especially when we ask Him for it.
And when it was time to leave, did I walk home? Nah... I was done walking so I rode a tricyle to our place.
That's how I reached only 9k steps again. I wonder when I'll reach 10k steps once more. Haha.
'Til next time! Ciao!
Send oh Lord millions of Holy Apostles into your Church! 🙏
XOXO, @artgirl
