One Day at a Time with Mae

Sometimes change feels like walking toward a plane — you don’t fully know what’s ahead, but you step forward anyway.

As a mom, it’s not just about you anymore. Every move carries prayer. Every decision carries your children’s future.

The boys hold her hands, trusting her completely.
And she holds onto God the same way.

Faith isn’t having all the answers.
It’s trusting the One who does.

So if you’re in a season of change, remember:
God goes before you. You are not walking alone. ✈️💛🙏

It’s honestly so easy to be affected by what people say.
Kahit sabihin mo sa sarili mo na “wala akong pake,”
some comments still stick.

There are days na may maririnig ka
that makes you pause and question yourself—
Am I doing this right?
Lalo na as a mom, parang laging may opinion ang lahat.

But I’m learning this:
not every voice deserves space in my head.

At the end of the day, what really matters
is what God thinks of me.
He sees the whole picture—
the effort no one notices,
the love I give even when I’m tired.

If some people don’t understand, that’s okay.
They’re not the ones who gave me this calling.

God chose me for this life,
for this season,
for this role.
And if I’m okay in His eyes,
that’s already enough.

So when the noise gets loud,
I breathe, let go, and remind myself—
other people’s opinions don’t define me.

I’m known by God.
And that’s what really matters. 🤍

Hindi araw-araw strong ang faith ko.
May araw na puno ako ng tiwala,
may araw na puro takot at pagdududa.
Pero kahit ganon, pinipili ko pa ring kumapit.

Siguro ganito ang motherhood sa season na ’to—
hindi tungkol sa pagiging supermom,
kundi sa araw-araw na pagsuko.

Pagsurrender ng control, expectations.
At pagtitiwala na si God ang gumagawa ng higit
kahit sa mga araw na pakiramdam ko,
wala akong nagawang tama.

Then I’m reminded of this:

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28

Hindi Niya sinabi na kailangan kong ayusin muna ang sarili ko o maging perfect na nanay.

Sabi Niya lang—lumapit ka.

Yey, Friday na! How was your week?

Mabilis ba? Nakakapagod? Or sakto lang?
Sa akin, halo-halo—may okay na araw, may araw na gusto ko na lang matulog nang maaga at mag-reset 😅

Pero kahit ano pa man, umabot tayo sa Friday. And honestly, minsan sapat na ‘yon. Hindi man perfect ang week, at least kinaya. Small wins count, kahit gaano kaliit.

So ngayon, pahinga muna. Kape, tulog, or tahimik lang.
Yey, Friday na. Kamusta ka naman?

Kaya kung mabigat ang araw mo ngayon, huminga ka muna. Ipagkatiwala mo kay Lord kahit yung mga pakiramdam mong hindi mo maintindihan. Hindi ka Niya minamadali. Hindi ka Niya hinuhusgahan. 🤍

Blessed Monday! Lalaban ulit, kasama si Lord!

Blessed morning, thank You Lord!
