My Birthday Wish

                                                                         June 14, 2025


To My Future Husband,


Today is my birthday.


And while others may wish for gifts, celebrations, or surprises, my heart simply longs for healing, happiness, and contentment. I just want to grow closer to God to serve Him with purpose, to help in the ministry with a joyful heart, and to live the life He designed for me.


But still, in the quiet moments of prayer today, I whispered your name to God again, yes, even without knowing it yet.


I prayed for a man with a heart that reflects Jesus. Someone emotionally intelligent, who will understand the weight I carry silently. A man who will accept all my flaws, my scars, my background, my struggles and love me still. I asked for someone God fearing, active in the church, a Seventh-day Adventist like me grounded in faith, not just in name.


I prayed for someone who will never cheat, never leave, never make me feel like I have to beg to be loved. A man who will lead with wisdom, plan for the future, and marry me not just because he can but because he chooses to, every single day.


If you’re reading this one day, I hope you know that I waited for you not perfectly, but prayerfully. And that even today, on my birthday, you were one of the quiet desires of my heart.


“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.”

— Psalm 37:4


Until we meet,

        Dea

Traumas Keep Coming Back

                                                                  September 6, 2025 To My Future Husband, I never thought I would face this kind of pain again, learning about the past mistakes of the man I love now. Knowing he cheated before broke something inside me. Not because I was the one betrayed, but because the thought of history repeating itself haunts me. It woke up old wounds, old fears, old tears I thought I had already buried. But in the middle of my shaking hands and restless thoughts, I prayed. I asked God to remind me that His love story for me is not built on fear, but on faith. That my future is not chained to someone else’s past. So to you, my future husband, if it is him, then I pray he has truly learned, truly changed, and truly understood what it means to love with faithfulness. I pray that God has mold...

Loved Through Every Quake

Tonight, I just want to pause and say… I feel so blessed. I’m here in Davao, reviewing for my board exam,  trying my best to chase this dream. But suddenly, the earth started shaking. Earthquakes happened, and for a moment, I didn’t know what to do. It was scary, uncertain, and everything felt fragile. Yet even in the middle of that fear, I was surrounded by love, by your family. Your sister, even though she’s busy with her hospital duty, still took time to check on me again and again. Your mom never stopped comforting me, reminding me to stay safe, to keep my things ready, and to stay alert. And your brother… the one who studied out and planned to go home early in the morning, but he came home earlier instead. Just so I wouldn’t be alone. He brought me food, stayed with me, and gave me little reminders that made me feel secure. I never felt this way before. In the middle of all the fear and uncertainty, I found peace, because of you and your family. Your mom’s comfort, your sister...

To My Future Husband, Last week, I had an ultrasound. They found I have PCOS, and something called “kissing ovaries.” I’ll know more this Wednesday when I go back for my results and consultation. But based on everything I’ve read, I might also have endometriosis. It’s hard to explain what I felt when I read about it , the way my heart sank, the way fear wrapped around me. Not just for the pain, not just for the unknown… but for what this might mean for my future. For our future. I already told my boyfriend about it , the one I love now. I was terrified of how he might react. But without hesitation, he said he’s willing to marry me. He even said he’d be happy to have a baby now, if that’s what it takes. I should’ve felt relieved… but instead, I cried. Because deep inside, I’m scared. What if this gets worse? What if I can’t conceive? What if our life becomes filled with doctor visits, failed pregnancy tests, and heartbreak after heartbreak? He deserves so much more. He’s still a student...
