Miracle Seeker

 I cannot fathom how my close relatives were able to get a priest administer the rites of "Anointing of the Sick" to my Mom on an Easter Sunday (April 4, 2021, Manila time); and amidst the restrictions of a locked-down city.  It can only be paved by a Divine Hand so I will bear witness.  Praise you, God!

When I called her up today, she sat up.  They said she has just taken 1 whole egg.  She even blew me a "flying kiss".

I asked where it still hurts but she nodded "none"?  They said after the priest's "blessing" yesterday, she finally got to sleep 3 hours straight in between her waking time to take her meds.  That is a relief since a week of physical ordeal. 

I know, the "health challenge" at her age is not yet over.  I am aware things remain uncertain but, I believe, a miracle has just been unfolded before my very eyes.  And TODAY, that is enough for me to understand God's plan... 

"There is still so much to learn about LIFE and my AUTHOR's mysterious ways..."

But I got some answers to my "whys?"

1.  When we love, our situations need not be perfect.  The state of our loved ones need not be perfect, too. The whole thing may not be what we want or expect. Oh, why do we ask for so much, indeed?  The truth is - in every waking day; in ever fleeting moment that is still given us to connect, reach out, say "I love you" ... is, in fact, the MIRACLE!

2.  And in this everyday miracle, we must be ready to PROCLAIM.  For "THIS TIME", this exact moment with our loved one, is, actually, the precious GIFT!

So, dearly beloved, I bear witness to write, share, and proclaim my awe! For even this mission is, I know, HIS plan...

To God be the Glory...

Thank you for this special Easter Gift!
