Raising Catterpilar to Butterfly

This quest began one day when I discovered a caterpillar last year on my newly grown calamansi plant. I decided to take care of the caterpillar and transfer it to a temporary container since the plant was too small to provide enough leaves for it to survive.

Should financial difficulties limit the ministry work?

Every activity costs money; there is no such thing as free. If you get something free, then someone paid the price so you can enjoy it freely.  

When funds are limited, what should I do? It makes me sad how our financial status restricts our ability to perform ministry work. We have had similar experiences several times, but I didn't give in to the situation. Instead of abandoning our activities, we find creative ways to pursue church projects even on a tight budget. Previously, I was not accustomed to facing financial difficulties while living with my parents.

Throw Back Thursday - From Employee to Employer

I was an employee for several years before starting my own business. This chapter of my life is one I like to reminisce about -  my days working at Pioneer Clinical Laboratory. I took the Medical Technology Board just a few months after graduating and was blessed to pass the Licensure Examination on my first attempt. A few days after receiving the results, I was uncertain whether I should look for a job, and the other question was where I would go to work, but definitely not abroad. You might wonder what prevents me from working outside the country. I was a PAMET-Safeguard Scholar, and one of the agreements was that I needed to serve my country for at least two years. This is also why I felt compelled to seek a position as a Registered Medical Technologist- a sign of my gratitude and sincere appreciation for the privileges I had, and now it's my time to give back to the organization and to my country.

Reflecting back, I remember that I didn't have a hard time job hunting.  As soon as the results were released, many employers called me to submit my resume and work for them.  To make a long story short, I chose Pioneer Laboratory because some of my classmates were already working there.  Others say I could have found a better job applying in hospitals, where opportunities are greater, but I believe it was God's purpose for me to be there.
