As we met up again with our Consultant yesterday afternoon, all I could really think of is how thankful I am that we have him. The Contract was 16-pages long and he cleared up anything that we weren’t too sure about as well as answered any questions we had. Although we had to sit at Starbucks for almost 2 hours just to go through the whole document, I was just really happy and just so thankful the whole time. What I read that morning probably had something to do with it.
In Psalm 30, David is thanking God for a lot of things – healing, protection from his foes, salvation, life, favor, joy, for establishing him, supplication, for being his helper, etc…
And for what???
“To the end that my tongue and my heart and everything glorious within me may sing praise to You and not be silent, O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.” (v.12, Amp)
The Psalm ended with this and I just thought, ‘Thank you God that you don’t just do things for me.’ I mean, I’m glad He does. But ultimately, He does whatever He does so that His Name is praised. He does things for His Name’s sake and I just absolutely love that!

It was also yesterday that I got to meet our Architect / Contractor. It was a brief meeting as he just gave us the documents needed for the Building Permit that Anthony, Babyanne’s Mansion Secretary, will soon be working on. He said since it’s outside Manila, it might just take 1-2 weeks to be approved; as opposed to the 3 months that it took him for the other project that he is working on.
I do pray that he’s right. Because as soon as we get the Building Permit, the excavation on the land can start and oh! I just cannot wait!
