Reflections in September

A friend texted me an anecdote I love reading. Here it goes:

"A sailor is stuck in an island where he is the only surivor. He made a hut for shelter, day and night he prayed and waited for someone to rescue him. But no one came. He stored foods in the hut for his survival, but one day the hut burned to ashes and he had nothing left. He was so angry and said: God why have you done this to me? The next day, rescuers came and he asked: how did you know that I am here? They replied, we saw a smoke signal. Then he realized that when his hut is burning, something good was happening. Surely, God will make a way!"

I was especially touched with the last line. Many times, in many ways -- God has shown His love for me. I can no longer recall how many times did he save me, and blessed me with all abundance there is. Just like the past few months. Nanakawan nga ako dati ng malaking pera. Pero ang kapalit naman, magandang trabaho, malaking oportunidad para mas maging produktibo.
