One strand of HOPE!!!

 Lord, 

I don't know how it will end.

But I am clinging to that one strand of HOPE!

Please allow Clarice to continue schooling next sem.

In Jesus Name!

God is an Awesome God!

He truly is Faithful.

He truly is Powerful.

I remember how hard I cried to the Lord, the morning of November 20. That was the last day of my daughter's 1st sem for 2nd year at school. Earlier that morning, as usual part of routine, hahatid ko sya sa sakayan going to her school. I sensed how sad she was as she told me, "Last day na namin mama today sa 1st sem. Sayang hindi ko na sila makikita ulit kasi titigil na ako mag-school". Those words cut deeply in my heart. As in, naghalo halo yung self-blame, self-guilt and shame. Like, anong ginawa ko sa anak ko?, She studied hard, gumigising sya ng madaling araw, 3am or 4am to study. To ensure na mataas ang grades nya. Napasama pa sya sa Dean's list last sem. And then all of a sudden, sasabihin ko sa knya na, Baby hindi na kasi kaya ni Mommy na bayaran ang tuition, I am sorry. Tigil ka muna, work ka muna, ipon lang tayo one year tapos tutuloy ka nalang ulit. I am so greatful na even though alam nyang hindi na sya makakapasok ng 2nd sem, nagtuloy pa din yung sipag at dedication nya sa pag-aaral nya. As soon as I closed our room's door, I started sobbing. Yung iyak na para akong namatayan. Yung iyak na sobrang sakit, sobrang awa sa sarili at sa anak ko. Basta sobra. Atungal level ng iyak. And then I saw this Tiktok saying, "Ask God Again" << https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSf5nLfB4/ >>. For the past weeks and days kasi parang tinanggap na naming mag-ina na talagang titigil na sya. Na-condition na namin yung mga sarili namin na yun na talaga yung next step namin. Not until that Thursday Morning (Nov20). And then I asked God again. And I remember the days when I prayed so hard, seeking His wisdom and His confirmation allowing Clarice to enroll at TIP QC. He said " Don't worry, Ako bahala sa inyong mag-ina". I really did hear God telling that to me. And yan yung pinanghawakan ko ulit. And then a miracle did happen to me, in less than 2 hours, may kumausap na sa akin. willing mag-extend ng help. Hindi sya libre, pero masasabi kong, Galing kay God yung way na yun. Sobrang sobrang thankful ko kay Lord, at sa lahat ng taong ginagamit nya para sa kanyang biyaya at pagpapala para sa amin. God is good all the time. All the time, God is good! 

Sa iyo ang parangal

Amen!

Amen!
