Royalty defined

God is so awesome! that's all I can say. He never does short change you. Never!

            

Last Friday was our smallgroup meeting with the ladies, we usually have it on a Sunday but due to my transition of attending service at Metroeast I have to change our schedule. We agreed it to be on a Friday 7pm. Before, we meet on a Sunday 5pm at Fab! restaurant Holiday Inn, but just last week I kept praying for our new place for the coming Friday. I kept praying, no answer, and still I kept praying and praying to God. Then Friday came. I left the house 630 pm, since its a Friday, traffic was terrible. While driving along Lanuza drive, i was thinking maybe we can have it at Window Cafe, probably at Ahsin, or how about at kfc. Then i gave up thinking and while stuck in traffic I texted my smallgroup members to pick a place where they want our meeting to be held at the same time where we can have our dinner as well. A reply to my SMS came, it was Mjay, she said "why not here inside room 2205?" Oh my gosh! How can i forget, it's their victory weekend and that they are staying overnight at the Holiday Inn suites. I rallied a SMS message to all the other ladies that we would have our smallgroup at room 2205. everyone was excited, but I think I was more excited, almost teary-eyed. 

Simple story right? But here's why i felt that emotion. I always tell the ladies that we are all princesses, we are all royalty (1 Peter 2:9), we are part of God's family. Personally, I took that verse to heart and I would always tell that to others that they too are of the royal priesthood of God. For that reason, I chose the Fab! at Holiday Inn to be our meeting place for our bible study sessions. I want them to at least feel what royalty is. Then friday came, just when I was so problematic with the place, God provided. He was already there waiting for us. He prepared the best place for our smallgroup, for His lovely princesses. But what made me almost cry is that He didn't just provided THE place, but He VALIDATED who we are in Christ. He is just so awesome, i cant find the words to define my feelings but all I know is that we are indeed His princesses and we are serving a great, mighty, and a loving King... Galing :)

So for next Friday, I have absolutely no idea where it would be, but without a doubt God would definitely provide :) 

Here's some of our photos at the Fab! restaurant and last friday at room 2205 suite of The Holiday Inn. Royalty:)

1 Peter 2:9 But You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. ......beautiful =)
