Google homepage always fascinates me with its logo. So I immediately checked what they have for us this Christmas. If you haven’t checked Google yet, here is a sneak preview.

Isn’t this cute? Anyway, to all my friends, readers and visitors…

“Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:11-14

We wish everyone a Blessed Merry Christmas! From Blogging Mama and family.

Just out of the blue, I have decided to have a children’s party in our neighborhood. It’s a short of thanksgiving to God for the blessings He has poured to my family and my work online. So, this is my way of paying forward for God’s kindness to me and my family.

I am not planning of any extravagant party. Maybe a few games and some deliciously cooked spaghetti with drinks would be enough to bring cheer to children. I am also planning to put up cardboard displays with letters and decorations at our gate which will serve as our stage.

Anyway, we haven’t decided what time and day the party would be since these children have family agendas too but definitely it will happen before the year ends. Wish us luck!

When another year comes we always take note of annual payments. May it be renewals or just investment payments; one must make sure that it’s paid on time to maximize money. Some may offer promos such as discount auto insurance or gift items when paid on time. So be sure pay early to avoid penalties or long lines.

Anyway, though I like to have discounts, I prefer monthly paying ever since. This is easier for our family’s meager budget.

How about you? Do you do yearly or monthly payments?

Last month I wrote a post about Noynoy Aquino’s MTV Ad and I gave my opinion. I still think that the ad was very suggestive that Noynoy is the answer.

Now, I saw the MTV Ad of Bro. Eddie Villanueva, the evangelist from Jesus is Lord Ministries. Just to be honest, I really love the ad because it is directed more in self change and a new Philippines (Bagong Pilipinas) which I am really passionate about. I joined the Ako Mismo Movement because I believe that change should start within us. So the tag line “Eddie Ako” (eh di ako) of the song symbolizes that we should start the new Philippines within us.

I think Bro. Eddie Villanueva would be a great leader because he is. He led Jesus is Lord Ministries for many years now in helping Filipinos know Jesus Christ more and to change within for Christ’s glory.

So, if we are looking for a “lesser evil” in politics to become the president of the Philippines, why not try somebody who FEARS GOD?

Anyway, below is the MTV Ad for Bro. Eddie Villanueva and the lyrics of the song. Hope you enjoy!

I
Umasa kang pagbangon ay posible pa
Pangarap nating araw ay sisiskat na
Pag-asay magniningas sa bagong Pilipinas

II
Buong sambayanan magkapit bisig na
Upang tunay na pagbabagoy magsimula
Sa pag sulong ng bayan, makiisa!

Chorus:
Sino pang may malasakit at pag-ibig sa bansa
Sino pa? Eh di ako!
Kailan mag uumpisa? Magkaisa, kumilos na!
Kailan pa? Eh di ngayon!
Sino pa nga bang gagawa?
Sinong pagsisimulan
Sinong magtataguyod ng bayan ni Juan?
Eh di ako!

RAP by Gloc 9:
Panahon na para sa pag bangon, sa kahirapan lahat ay umahon/
Ngayon ang oras ng pagbabago isang bayan para sa tao/
Kanino ba dapat ang simula/ Ang pag asa ng bayan ay mag mula/
tungo sa pag sulong ang sagot ko kung walang aako
Eh di ako!
