Praising God, again and again! 🙌🏻🤍
A day after Hope’s first birthday, she got sick.
In her 360 days of life, this was the first time we saw Hope seriously unwell. She woke up in the middle of the night crying, vomiting, and having a fever. We didn’t know what was happening or what caused it.
On the day we decided to celebrate her birthday, we actually rushed her to the hospital for a check-up. But because we didn’t wait for the doctor to arrive, we decided to go home and continue celebrating her birthday.
By faith, I kept claiming that she was fine and healed by God.
And truly, glory to God!
Almost all of Hope’s visitors that day were pastors and prayer warriors. Physically, Hope looked completely fine. She was walking, talking, laughing, and playing—nothing seemed to be wrong.
By faith, I really claimed that she was healed.
But that night, her fever came back, and she was crying again.
Sunday morning, I decided to bring her to her pediatrician for a check-up. Along the way, I kept worshipping God. It was a non-stop worship—praising Him even when I didn’t understand what was happening.
We met with Hope’s pediatrician, and when her laboratory results came back, we found out that she had amoebiasis.
When I heard the diagnosis, of course, there were many things running through my mind. But in the middle of it all, the Spirit of God gave me a peace that I cannot explain.
The peace that surpasses all understanding. 🕊️
To cut the story short, Hope wasn’t admitted to the hospital. Instead, she was sent home with medication.
Maybe Hope didn’t receive her healing instantly or in the way I initially prayed for. But I still believe she is healed. God can use medicine, doctors, and every means He chooses to bring healing.
Today is her 6th day of taking antibiotics, and I am praising God because she can already play energetically, laugh, eat, and drink her milk again. 🥹🤍
Sa ganitong sitwasyon, mas pinakita lang ng Diyos na Siya ay mabuti at makapangyarihan. He has His own ways of allowing us to see the beauty of His plans and experience His power over our lives.
There are things we cannot control.
There are moments when all we can do is surrender.
Surrender it all to God.
Because He has the final say.
He is sovereign, after all. 👑
And even when healing doesn’t come exactly
when or how we expect it to, we can still
worship.
We can still trust.
We can still declare that God is good.
Today, this mama heart is just simply grateful.
To God be all the glory! 🙌🏻🤍
