2013 Abby Borja: A look back to the BEST year so far called 2013

2012 has been a year full of SUFFERINGS, PAINS and REGRETS. It is the year where my HEART and FAITH were been tested the most. But God closed it and gave me a NEW beginning, a FRESH start called 2013.

I entered it (2013) with a hopeful heart, that this year would be BETTER both for my family and myself. I HAVE DRAWN THE LINE! Drawing the line means I will no longer be the continuation of whatever is wrong in my life and will be a champion of right, I will be the beginning of a new future. What needs to be stop has to stop and what needs to start has to start. I’ve decided that I won’t play church anymore. I decided to leave the CROWD and be a DISCIPLE once and for all.

And GOD has been FAITHFUL. Guiding me one step at a time. He redeemed 2012 and unwrapped 2013 with a BANG!!!

Isaiah 61:7 says, “Instead of your former shame, you shall have a two-fold recompense. Instead of dishonor and reproach your people shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land, they shall possess double what they forfeited.” What the enemy has stolen from me God gave it back double. DOUBLE FOR MY TROUBLE!!! During 2012 I was broken, trampled, unhappy, confused Abby BUT NOW I am victorious, blessed, favored, loved Abby.

Sakit likod, mabaho, pagod sa kakalakbay kung saan saan madeliver lang ang mga lechon... Ngayon umiiyak. Bakit??? Kasi yung kinita ko ngayong araw kaya kong kitain sa pagmomodel ng 3-5hours ng walang kahirap-hirap. Naiiyak ako kasi sobrang na-appreciate ko ung kinita ko ngayon, maliit kapalit ng effort na binigay ko pero ang saya ko lang kasi alam ko "hard-earned" siya. Masasabi kong pinaghirapan ko talaga!!!

Ngayon mas lalo kong na-appreciate yung trabaho ko sa pagiging modelo. Primadonna ang trato, lahat provided: damit, pagkain ultimo minsan pati transportation pero I have taken it for granted, madalas pumepetiks ako, reklamo dito reklamo dun, demand ng demand, ang laki nung tf na halos sahod ng isang trabahador isang buwan pero feeling ko pa din "underpaid" ako. Tapos nangyari yung NGAYON. Grabeh ka lang talaga Lord! Umiiyak sa galak, nakaluhod, sobrang saya lang ng puso ko ngayon.  Alam mo ung sobrang fulfilled? Naiiyak ka na lang at thank you ka ng thank you kay Lord. Kasi pinaranas nya un sayo. Grabeh! Ang sarap sa feeling kapag genuine na pagpapasalamat ang nadarama mo. Salamat Lord for this experience!!! Waaahhh!!! Alam ko hinahanda Mo ako sa isang napakalaking bagay. Salamat Ama ngayon pa lamang.

It's really true. The harder it is, the sweeter it will be. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! 

Ang tunay na diwa ng pasko ay ang pagdating ng tunay na Tagapagligtas at nagiisang Hari. 

Napa-tagalog ako ng bongga, iba talaga tong revelation na to sa akin!!! Thank You Lord! Iloveyouuuuuuu!!!! #Grateful #Overwhelmed #Fulfilled
