FAITH is ALL I HAVE

It was a bad dream.  There’s no English translation with ‘bangunot’ so I guess that’s the most fitting word to describe it.  It was actually a nightmare.

I was in my room, I slept facing the wall and in that scene, there was a dark shadow near the dresser and was looking at me.  Then, that shadow possessed me went inside me and I felt it clasped my heart and was really holding it.  I felt uneasy and somehow feeling the panic gradually.  I knew that was it.  When I can’t barely breathe, I began to pray the Lord’s Prayer.  ‘Our Father who art in Heaven...’  I could really feel the resistance and I want to give up.  Good thing I was able to finish it and I continued praying Hail Mary and  I was giving my all to feel every word of it and surrendering everything.  ‘…holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners…’ I felt the release of my heart and I was breathing again.  I continued praying until my inhalation was back to normal. I wanted to open my eyes, but I was still scared that the shadow was still there in my room or just beside me.  So, I continued praying and uttering ‘Hail Mary’ while sobbing and I fell asleep again.

I woke up because of the three alarms that were simultaneously buzzing.  I am still alive.   

Thank you, Lord.  There really is a power in prayer.

As I look back with what happened in my life for the past months, I could really say, that the thing that keeps me going is my FAITH.  I trust HIM so much that I entrusted my life and I was ready to go.  I am living now because of that complete trust in HIM.  I really can’t thank HIM enough. 

I feel the love and care of Mama Mary and she really took care of me.  She is really a mother.  This isn't the first time that I was saved and answered my prayers.

Whatever happens to me, I know I am wrapped in God's arms and Mama Mary's lap just hugging me and making me feel that I am saved.  Forever and ever,  Amen.
