Right now we are facing difficulties in life. Not only for me but for my entire family. I truly love my family (parents
, brothers and sisters
) as I love my own (husband and kids). Our lives these days is such a struggles. So much bumps hit in our road that we never expect to come.
Firstly
, it started with when my elder brother engaged in a motor accident. We weren't there when it was happened. Some said he was half drunk while driving. And I think its possible. He got hit hard in his head. He was confined in the hospital for a week and decided to go home even if he is not fully okay yet. One reason was financial incapacity.
Second
, my younger brother struggled in heart matter. He and his gf were tested. His gf left him for some family reason. It was kind of a state of shock for us because his gf is already so close to the family and they already are 3 years being on. We love her and treated her as one of our family. It hurt us to see that it all ended up like this. I seen and witnessed how my brother cried to me
, to my parents
, to my cousins and my sisters. I know he tried to be strong and focus. We keep telling him to be and ofcourse to trust in GOD above all. Everything happens for a reason.
Third
, my sister who is going to graduate this coming march will have an educational tour in Cebu which will cost couple of thousands. An unexpected happening she wasn't able to be one of the scholars in the City for the reason of failure in her one of the subject. We were obliged to pay for her tuition fee which I didn't expect would happen. So the money we saved for her tours was being used for the tuition fee plus most of it was used for the medication and hospitalization of my brother who engaged in an accident.
Fourth
, my elder brother brought some problem in the family that forced us to put him in jail. It was the most frustrating night for me and for the family. He came home drunk and went wild like he didn't have control to himself. It brought anger and trigger the family that put him into the situation.
Its just the quarter of the year but its like a curse for us. It brings so much emotions
, frustrations and struggles for us. But inspite of all of this we keep praying and begging GOD to be our guidance and counselor. We believe he is truly the best counsel and guide in every way. We keep hoping that in everything we been through now
, it has reasons.
We keep visiting my brother in detention jail to give him courage and talked about how truly GOD is amazing. We keep strong and believe in GOD and have faith. GOD will never leave.
Another to mention while we were visiting my brother in the jail
, the Police officer in Tangub asked my husband (James) complete name
, age
, marital status and his address in the states as well as mine (name and address). The lady police took picture with the Police officer together with me and James. I seen one police outside riding in the police car saying to take James name and address. He said that its for security reason. Since he is a foreigner and living in the City so they are like liable. I thank GOD for this atleast its feels more safer. But oh well nothing is more safe in GOD's hand anyway.
In the positive side
, at the night before the flight for the tours of my sister
, her instructor called and asked about her if she is coming or not. Its been set and we had been talked already that she will not join the tour because we have nothing to let her go with. And its okay for her that she wont be able to graduate this year. So her instructor said that he will pay for my sister in the tour provided that I will pay it next month which is okay for me because in that maybe I will have my salary. GOD is truly GOOD. Her instructor even told me to just pay it half at a time then the other half on the next so that it wont be too much for me.
Another blessing received James 13a visa application is approved today. We never expect it because someone told us that it will get approved prolly 3 to 6 months. And oh yeah its just 2 months from the date we applied for it and wow... what a surprise from GOD JESUS we received.
I thank GOD for everything. For all good and bad. Thank you Lord for having a family that rely on you and for having a husband who is very supportive and very understanding. Kind hearted who never give up on us. Who is always there to comfort and keep telling us the bright side in GODs hands. Thank you very much my LORD JESUS CHRIST. Please continue to guide us and bring us to YOUR WILL!!
