Isa talaga sa pangarap ng mga babae ay mapakasalan ng lalaking mahal nila at yung lalaking mahal na mahal sila. Lalo na yung lalaking laman ng bawat panalangin nila. Sobrang romantic, sobrang sarap lang sa pakiramdam nito. I’m hoping and praying na after 8 years kami parin ng boyfriend ko at siya na yung lalaking makakasama ko pang habambuhay. Babalikan ko ‘tong article na to para mapakinggan ulit at basahin ulit tong comment ko at mapapasabi ako ng thank you, Lord sa pagdinig ng panalangin ko. 🥺❤️

As of this time,I’m back in the music ministry and sings most of the time in church,,I have songs posted in wesing and thankful to God for the comments that my listeners feel relax when they hear my voice (even if I’m not a singer.).. Praise be to our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏

Find a partner who will take good care of you in every step And struggle of your relationship..
I stop singing because of my ex, we’re together for almost 4years and we broke up for some reason. Now, my present boyfriend soon to be my husband encourage me to sing again because their family were a great singer but I always say NO hahaha hindi na kasi ako marunong kumanta ulit at nahihiya ako sa family nya kasi hindi ako kagalingan gaya nila hahaha. Pero yun nga as I always thought to myself na once I build my confidence again in singing they will hear me for once on the day of our wedding. He never know that I will be singing in our wedding like you did. Hahahaha so wish me luck. I will go back to this comment section and update all of you guys if I DID IT. Godbless 😇😊💞 P.s Let me use your song sa araw ng wedding namin 🥰. Thank you po
Maybe I am still a teen for now, but a lot of realization and lessons taught me. Love is all about patience and trust. Even you’re apart or distance hinder both of you, you will not let it be the thing that’ll destroy your relationship. If you both love each other, then let faith decide if you really are meant to be, time molds, just hold on. The most important of all is that, let God be the center of your relationship, ’cause clearly GOD IS LOVE.

I just came across this article when I was perusal Jona’s Maghihintay ako and I must admit this song is so lit. It can touch anyone’s heart. I love this. Very heartfelt and you can feel the emotions of the bride while singing for her groom. May you be blessed in your married life and be together until you grow old. ❤❤❤
I have a specific man in my heart and in my mind that I want to marry if God willing. He’s from PNPA as well – from Sarangani Province. He doesn’t know me yet, and we didn’t meet ever since, but I’m praying for him, and his safety, so we can be ready in the future. I just saw him and I randomly said, “This man will be my husband in the future, because he’s the man I’ve been praying for.” To my husband, I will see you in the right place and in right time!💗✨ I’ll surely be back here, WHEN IT’S ALREADY OUR TIME. 🤞🤍
