Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.

Like everyone else who feels self-doubt, I too experience this, but this verse always pops out whenever I have this kind of unhealthy thought and helps me focus on the things I can do and surrender to him all my worries about things I have no control over. I considered this one of the miracles of my career, where I was able to continue studying with a scholarship that covered all my expenses with a very generous monthly allowance that allowed me to save beyond my regular salary from my previous job. Indeed, your work was truly amazing. To my family, Caridad Salaber De Arce, Richard de Arce, Charissa S. De Arce, Richelle De Arce, Charlie De Arce, Rivelen Pagsiat, and baby chevey, thank you for being my safe home, where I get my strength and motivation to work on my dreams and be a better version of myself. To my boyfriend, Carlo Jay B. Palmaera, thank you for your unending comfort during my down moments and the effort you make to cheer me up always. To my friends Chrissa Cartera and Kiesh Martonia Contreras, thank you for being one call away where I can say anything and just be myself. To my former teachers, Nelca Umblero-Amatong and Florence Silapan Suarez, thank you for your support and belief in me, which gave me confidence in pursuing my master's degree. To my friends in the ICC Magnificat Choir- Gensanville, Gensan, bonding with you guys makes me less stressed while working on my thesis. Making friends while staying on campus: Mari Danella Bocon, Cristine Edullantes Divinasflores, you make me feel like I have sisters; I can share everything; and Jigzcel Divine, our mommy in Jubeli House, thank you for bonding moments and being a caring person. To my former coworkers Jezelle Valenia Estares-Binoya, Mohaina B. Gandawali-Kinok, and Moomshie Beneth Brojo, thank you. I felt your support in my early days pursuing my studies, and I really appreciate that. To my adviser, Liezl Marinay-Atienza, deep in my heart, I'm truly grateful for your generosity in sharing your expertise, guidance, and corrections that really helped me finish my master's degree.

All glory and honor belongs to God🙏😍
