..I am God's very own Princess..

It has always been every little girl's dream to become a princess. The elegant dresses, embellished crown or tiara, matched with social grace and class. And not to forget, the dashing prince that would someday, sweep her off her feet. How about women my age? Well, we hate to admit it, but we somehow have this "little princess" inside us, waiting to have that feeling of being swept away or romanced.

This "little feeling" inside me awakened when I attended this year's SFC Women's Conference last April 27 at Miriam College. It was something we girls certainly look forward to. The theme basically is so "princessy"- THE PRINCESS DIARIES as what they call it. The pink kit where each princess gets, includes a personalized ID with matching hearts or floral lanyard, 3in1 coffee mix and our very own Princess Diary. The conference started with a Holy Eucharistic Celebration, followed by 4 meaningful talks, all inspired and simply made for us princesses.

It surely made a big impact on my part. I was able to feel how beautiful and captivating I am. It taught me how to accept the pains and failures that resulted to my pierced heart. Unknowingly, I learned about the 3 lies that attacks us when we are in our lowest point of our lives. I was able to renounce all these lies that I never thought existed, and I wholeheartedly allowed God to romance me in such a "princessy" manner.

I feel so blessed to have heard His message, as I meditated and communicated with Him peacefully. His words were, "You are my Precious One, My Princess. Follow what your guarded heart tells you, for soon you will receive the best gifts I have prepared for you. I am your King, your Father, and your Knight will soon claim you from me. I tell you, he will wipe off your tears, sweep you off your feet and will love you, just as how he loves me as Your Father. When you finally meet the destined Knight, you will have one of the greatest love stories ever told..I am always here for you, my beloved Princess."

The conference ended quite late, but hey! we got our very own crowns! :-) We are truly God's own princesses, and I'm proud to be one of them.
