Hi sis Pia,
The genie can grant you your first wish, that is also our prayer. The second wish is a bit overboard. Where in the world can you get 800 million pesos and how will you spend it? The third wish is really sinister. You think you can outwit the genie? hehehe, lolz. Thanks for your visit and for playing along with this post. God bless you always.

Hi Amrita,
Wow, you have very modest wishes. I'm sure the genie will grant all of them plus some bonuses too. Thanks for your visit and for playing along with this post. God bless you always.

Hi R,
That's very peculiar. You wished for personal qualities and not for something material. Just like Solomon, maybe the genie will grant you all of your wishes plus something extra. Thanks for your visit and for playing along with this post. God bless.

1. For Philippines to be a better place to live...no more selfish/corrupt politicians.

2. for my Father to grow and more aware with the best things in life, things that aren't measured by praises& materials.

3. for my husband to find what I/ his parents have found within:)

Hi Shawie,
You did not ask something for yourself and that is really selfless on your part. For that the genie will give you something special- you will live a long productive life full of sunshine and joy. Thanks for your visit and wonderful comments. God bless you always.

Pia stole one of my answers (#3) so I'll change it a bit
1. That he stays my genia all my life to answer my wishes,and those wishes would involve me giving wishes to anyone who needs help, and giving me the strength to serve others and the Lord until the Lord returns...
2. That every time I need money or want to give money to someone who needs help, that I would reach in my pocket and the exact amount would be there...
3. That Satan be destroyed.
I don't know how I missed this post until now. Good question again! Oh I see that the date is March 18, the day I went to court for my husband's hearing. That's why I missed it.
Praying for you Mel!!!!

Hi Shiela,
Hahaha, you are also sneaky just like Pia, hehehe, lol. No the genie will not be tricked to give you wish number three of Pia. That is tantamount to granting you unlimited wishes. Only three will do. And you cannot wish to do away with Satan. How can God's people appreciate the goodness of God if there is no force of evil around. We will just be like robots programmed to do only good. But we have free will. We can choose God or we can spurn Him. That's the rule of the game. Number two wish cannot be also granted since it will give you unlimited wishes all your life. Hehehe, you are indeed sneaky. Try to fool the genie, hehehe, no way Jose. You just have to make three definite and doable wishes and that's all. No tricks please, hehehe, lol. Thanks for your visit and very amusing comments. I enjoyed that. God bless you always. You know that I always pray for you. Ciao.
