Blessed and Grateful ( Rachel's Journey with grace and love)

BLESSED AND GRATEFUL 

God's Amazing Grace 

With God all things are possible

Matthew 19:26

Thank you Lord for all of your favour, grace and love in my life. Im not deserve of everything but you really gives everything.

Praise the Father in Heaven.

This year was a full of blast of blessing. God’s goodness, love and mercy. God’s answer prayer we really need to wait for the perfect time in everything, God will grant all our prayers and petition. By faith.

In Jeremiah 29: 11 ¹¹ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

My happy family

Remember this– you're a work in progress. A masterpiece that God is still shaping.

Don't be upset about the messed ups. Don't be upset about the break ups.

Don't beat yourself up when you feel unqualified, lahat tayo dadaan d'yan. God qualifies the called anyway.

Your waiting is part of the pieces. Your pain and suffering are necessary. Trust God's process. Kapag dumating ka sa point na para kang dinudurog, take it as refining you to prepare you and Yes, I pass it through God’s grace and love.

God is also bringing the right people you'll ride with as you walk towards your purpose. Allow God to cut off the wrong ones, you don't need them.

Remember, you are precious to God. He created everything in His voice but the only thing He's put His hands on was you– feel that.

Trust Him, even when it gets messy sometimes. Trust Him, even when it gets hard sometimes.

You'll be amazed to what the Master Artist can do to a broken life when you give Him all the pieces.

Let Him do the molding. So is the breaking— just give your heart to God, submit to His will. He will do the rest.

This year God answer my prayer for the longest time. Im blessed kasi isa na ditto ang ZENROOMS journey ko, super thankful talaga ako kay Maam Nika, PR and Marketing Manager of ZENROOMS, super thankful ako kay Maam Nika, because she trust me a lot, being one of the Influencer and VIP ZEN of ZENROOMS for me, this is a huge and big responsibility for being  one of the VIP ZEN and Yes I took the challenge that was APRIL, I signed up to the con tract and I made it so far from the start of my journey. Its hard because everything for me is new, new environment, people and the backgroundof work, I consider it as work because, its gives me the opportunity to be an Influencer of ZENROOMS. To make is short, the journey of being a ZEN VIP was hard at first but if you will do it with all of your heart and dedication and of course Prayers and Faith to the Lord, God will bless you beyond you could imagine

From May to October I was a consistent TOP VIP ZEN and my heart is full of thanksgiving and super thankful talaga ako kay Lord. All is well… and Yes I created my blog page BLESSED RACHE DIARIES, a life full of God’s testimony and love.

All for the Glory of God,  it was a turning point of my life and Yes, super nakatulong tlaga ang ZENROOMS sa akin, sobra.. Sa tiwala ng mga guest ko sakin, sa family ko, friends and loved ones and to all Promonatics friends.. Thank you….

I prayed na mag tuloy lang ang ZENROOMS … Thank you because they trust me also to be part of ZEN VIP.. I met a lot of my journey from attending several events, the MISS ASIA PACIFIC, VIP ZEN Staycation party meet up and many more. I met Byahero ni Bes, The Jerny Travel and inspiration, Rizanoia, Travelokaloka Girl, G ventures, Hungry Byaheros and Many more…

 Thank you Lord for all of the opportunity you gave to me Lord, more than of this, in everything that I do I give you Glory and exaltation.

Minsan nasabi ko talaga sa sarili ko to, as a mom, wife, daughter, and of course follower’s of Christ.

"Lord, hindi ko na po alam..."
"Lord, ikaw na pong bahala..."

Kapag dumating ka na sa point na hindi mo na talaga alam. You did everything; you cried, you prayed, you tried your best, you gave it all– hinto na, ipagkatiwala mo na lahat kay Lord.

God is stronger than what's putting weights on your shoulder right now.
God is bigger that what you're facing right now.

Breathe. Pause for a moment. Rest in His presence. He's in control. He's working.

God can do more when you are resting (and trusting) than when you work on your own strength.

Don't be discouraged just because you're in a season where you feel everything isn't going the way you wanted them to.

Just because you don't feel that God is working doesn't mean that He's not.

He's working even when you don't feel it.
He's helping you even when you don't see it.

If He's still working, don't stop trusting.
If He's still working, don't stop waiting.

Keep your faith up! Leave it all to God.

May pakialam Siya. Naririnig ka Niya at kaya Niya kaya mapagtatagumpayan mo ang laban.

Tapat Siyang nagsimula sa pangarap mo, tapat rin Siya hanggang sa makarating ka doon.

He's faithful. He has never left us, and He's not about to start now. Ituloy mo lang. Ilaban mo pa sa panalangin.

God will fulfill His promises for you. Yes, He will.
His promises are yes and amen. You can always bank on them. In any situation, there's promise attached into it.

Just keep walking. God will take you to places you've never imagined. He'll guide your steps to get there, He's got your back.

This is my journey in my work and also being a Part of ZEN VIP. 

I pray for 2020 for more opportunity... 

Im ready Lord for bigger and much more responsibility.... 

See you Singapore soon.. Travel Soon.. :)

How to Motivate Kids to Do Well in School

 Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6 

This is my daughter Angela nicole, she's 4 years old, nursery student.

Angela at School

 Motivated children are more likely to do well in school, and they are more likely to have a positive attitude towards learning. Often times, the missing ingredient to get a child motivated to do well is something as a simple as adapting assignments to the child’s preferred learning style. Other factors, such as setting appropriate expectations and demonstrating the importance of school to your child through your own behaviors, can help make your child motivated to do their best in school.

Angela doing her assignments/howeworks

Talk to your child. To motivate your child to do well in school, it’s important to get your child’s perspective on their interests and abilities. Listen to your child and offer your own observations as to where their greatest strengths lie. You may be surprised to learn that your child is interested in a subject that you weren’t aware of

• For example, you might ask, “What’s your favorite subject in school? What makes it your favorite?” or “What’s your least favorite subject in school? Is it because you’re not interested in the subject or you think it’s too hard?”
• Don’t dismiss your child’s interests if they don’t line up with your own. For example, if your child loves literature and you rarely read, don’t tell your child that literature is useless. Instead, find a way to support your child’s interest—for example, you might offer to take them to library on Saturdays.

Good job

 

 

 

 

 

Adjust your expectations. Set your highest expectations for your child with the subjects that most interest them and where they have the greatest ability. Make it clear to your child that with subjects where they have little interest or ability, you still expect diligent effort but you will consider them successful if they try their best.^[2]

• For example, if you child excels in math and loves the subject, tell them that you expect them to get straight As in math. On the other hand, if they have trouble with social studies—memorizing state capitals, for example—tell them you expect them to put in thirty minutes of work on the subject every night. Tell them that as long as they put in the work, you’re not concerned about the final grade.
• If you’re afraid your child simply isn’t trying hard enough in a particular subject, and that’s why they’re doing poorly, making them work in that area every night will quickly decide the issue. If they just needed to work harder, you’ll see their grades rise. If they really have little aptitude for the subject, at least they’ll be learning to put effort into difficult things.

  

  “The more you give away the happier you become.” 

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  Acknowledge your child’s efforts. Children are more likely to feel motivated to keep trying when their efforts, instead of their accomplishments, are acknowledged. Acknowledging your child’s efforts lets them know that hard work is more valuable than specific results.
