Fierce Grace

Myla. She was a highschool dropout. She supported her boyfriend for seven long years but the latter didn’t know the extent and depth of her support.

I’m both (ambot!) amused and annoyed at the satirical storyline which exaggerates the power and arrogance of the elite.

Myla’s boyfriend disregards her support and boasts about being in excellent standing with the society’s most influential person. With his double PhD, he was up to be hired by the topmost company, Rosa Corp. He was excited to meet the ultra-rich supporter of his achievements, the CEO of Rosa Corp. Unbeknownst to him, it was actually his scruffy girlfriend Myla.

The boyfriend’s mom is a condescending eye-poor (matapobre!) who treats Myla with the least respect. She offers to pay her just to break up with her son.

Shortly after being dumped, Myla enters into a legal marriage with an ultra-rich tycoon who is indebted to her because of a business tip she gave him. He had no clue that she was Rosa Corp’s CEO. He happened to be running away from his engagement to a high-society woman he disliked.

So Myla and the ultra-rich tycoon got married in a jiffy, as if they got their marriage license from a vending machine.

Then the plot “thickens” when people didn’t want to believe that Myla was indeed THE wealthiest, most powerful person in the room. She – and her husband – received all sorts of bashing.

The scenes kept extending, whetting my appetite for the big reveal. I could’ve just dragged the slider to the end but I chose to let myself be immersed in the charades and confusing captions.

In the end, of course, Myla is more than fully avenged when the most impossible truth about her identity is revealed, shoving all of the contrabidas down on their knees with nothing but regret.

I can’t help but remember how, during the days of Jesus, the top religious people failed to see Him for who He said he was: “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” (John 8:58).

Who is Jesus to you? Is Jesus really who He says He is? Will you be ready to meet Him and be embraced by Him on the great Reveal? Or will you get down on your knees with nothing but regret? Don’t wait until it is too late.

 2. Mix Well: Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.

 3. Boil for Steam (Optional): If you want to use steam, pour the mixture into a small pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer. This step is optional if you only want to use it as a spray.

 4. Transfer to Spray Bottle: If you simmered the mixture, let it cool before transferring it to the 100 ml spray bottle. If you didn’t simmer, just pour the mixture directly into the spray bottle.

Redeemed Beauty

Warrior princess, you’ve been redeemed, you are chosen and you are extravagantly loved.

Even in the most mundane, little tasks let your beauty shine.

Do not let negativity – yours or that of others – quench your fire.

Do not stop the naysayers – you can’t. But with gentleness, direct them.

Let the Lover of your soul sit enthroned in your heart – do not be fooled nor conceited – for only He, the King of kings, is your Vindication. 

Delight to hide, to rest, to walk in the shadow of His wings, and let others gaze not on yours but His beauty.
