Waiting at the lobby…

At 4:00A.M., October 24, 2009 I arrived at Manila Doctors Hospital for our Medical Mission. Thanks God for I came that early safe and very excited indeed. While waiting at the lobby I was praying for the safety of my co-volunteers and for other volunteers doing the medical missions in other places. I am thanking our Lord God Jesus Christ for the blessings and wonderful dreams He show to me. Finally dreams come true for me to reach and touch others with my two little hands. Hoping that the typhoon survivors will see and feel our warm care as they may also feel the love and mercy of our Savior Jesus Christ thru us. During my conversation with Papa (Jesus Christ) I felt so much joy and love in my heart that makes me cry. I was looking forward for the happy and remarkable treasure moments that will happen within the day. I also ask Him what am I going to do next and I will obey. Btw, I always ask for His plans and ways for I know He already prepared all the best for me as well as to you and to all ("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 hope and a future." – Jeremiah 29:11). In our everyday journey God is always within us to comfort us. I love talking and sharing everything to Him as well as my “kalokohan” bwahaha… I know that He already know everything to me but still I always update Him about the happenings…the funny side is that He already know everything and then while praying I make kwento to Him at the same time I have a letter for HimJ. Yipee!!! At last Alvin just arrived with a big smile. This gal also surprised me with Gawad Kalinga Walang Iwanan t-shirt as a gift. Afterwards, he updates me that we have 15 volunteer Doctors for the medical mission at La Paz, Tarlac. Surprisingly, we also have Nurses, Pharmacists and escort Military Soldiers from Armed Forces of the Philippines joining us as we keep reaching our helping hands in this Medical Mission for Typhoon Survivors. As we begin our journey, opening prayers was offered. After praying I closed my eyes again as I wanted to hug and kiss our Heavenly Father and thank Him again for the gift of life….silence…until I heard a playing hill songsJ. Feels like heaven as I saw a bright light and feel something’s running to my veins. Deep within, I want to cry out load as I keep listening to the songs – For Who You Are, At the Cross, and I Can Only Imagine.

Great is our God! While writing to my notes Dra. Joen asked me, “writer ka?”, “ano sinusulat mo? Story? Reflections? Insights? Writing for the Lord?” and other questions alike. With a smile, I shared that I have a journal – this is not a Dear Diary type journal but a Dear Papa Lord God Jesus Christ. My journal is all about me and everything that surrounds me. My wonderful dreams and heart desires are all IN as I keep updating our Lord thru our conversations, my prayers and writings.

At 7:48 A.M., as we enter the province of La Paz, Tarlac the song Who Am I start playing….
