God's Perfect Timing!
God’s Perfect Timing
Hearing the News about the Covid19 make me feel a bit nervous.knowing that the President Declared the Enhanced Community Quarantine is terrifying.I am just a simple person with a messy life….no work,no income,renting in one room alone.looking for a work but it seems hard to find……….
going home that day to my boarding house(March 14,2020) thinking what would be the next step shall I do in order to surpass my daily needs with 20php in my purse,I really don’t know what to do.chatting to my closest person whom I thought I could rely on but it was just a seen zone.I couldn’t sleep and crying alone,talking to Him what was happening on me.till I touch my phone and saw the time it’s three in the morning and I am still crying.having no choice but to give up all the worries to Him,I fall asleep.I felt good when I woke up.I open my window and staring people who passes by holding groceries bags,watching others who are in panic buying.then one of the boarders here shout at me.”look at them?(pointing to the people who have groceries bags)all are in panic buying!when you will want to go and buy for your stocks?”then I shouted him back,I only have panic here no buying!”.then we laugh at it.for some who heard us,they think I am joking but no,that was true.
I am hungry no coffee,no drinking water but I have my 20php and good thing messenger is free in messaging.I went to bakery,buy 10php of pandesal and 5php water.while eating my bread,I open my phone again and the mobile data……one of my cousin’s wife message me asking how I am?And I said I am okay just don’t have a food and only 5php in my wallet….truly when God is with you he will not Abandon you. that moment she called and asked me to find smart padala so that they will be able to send money and wanted me to buy food.I am so happy and burst to cry for I felt nothing that time and now I will receive his Blessings using someone to bless me……..I learned here to trust him fully.
I started to buy all that I need,I forgot that when you buy groceries it’s really consuming of money.I thought I could have extra for my other needs but when I pay to the cashier almost one thousand of my bills.I pay it with a close eyes.in short my money back to 20 php again.good thing is I have my food already…..after a week the quarantine continue and the care taker called me that if I have money I need to buy stocks(foods)for 15days because there is a news, will be having a total lockdown,all groceries and other establishments will be closed.of course human instinct fear and panic come out…..but no matter how it exist,there is no alternatives but to rely again with Him,I have nowhere to go but to our Almighty alone then calm myself.I decide to cooked rice so that I could eat lunch with salt cause I have a plenty of salt……..
Unfortunately just a few seconds my gas become empty,I tried to ask the caretaker if I can finished my cooked rice with them but the daughter told me her mama is asleep.singing the 10,000 reasons songs make me calm.then I ask my cousin in laguna that I need help.great news its not seen zone he replied.due to the enhanced community quarantine he cannot go out at that moment 2pm was there schedule to go out,so I waited….talking to God again to make my mind clear and not panic again………….
Is it a worth to wait?
I don’t know because when he chatted me again there is no other ways for him to send me money as the subdivisions are far from any courier………..so I said it’s okay,”if it is God’s will I have to do fasting I guess but if not He will make a ways how to bless me in my needs.”a few minutes later someone is calling on my phone.I don’t know the number.at first I didn’t answer but the second call I did it.to my surprise my cousin called his sister in the province to send me here as they were have a means of sending .so they sent me through smart padala I buy gas and finished my cooked rice then additional stocks food for the another quarantine period.when you learn to wait it will come to you,as they said Patience is a Virtue.
Being in a lockdown situation is not a problem on me as long as I have my food and Netflix in my phone.I enjoyed it actually.till April Came and continuing the ECQ(enhanced community quarantine)I cannot open the Netflix so boredom feeling appeared.every time my closest friend chat me,my answers is always a problem so I attracted it.as the saying says,”What you Focused Expand”.she always told me “ate lina whatever situation you are in now,you must be grateful that you are healthy and alive.”and I replied to her,”you can only say that because you are not in my shoes.”the habit of depending myself,I reason out.and she said,what do you want?”and I said,”I am craving of escabeche but I only have 50php,then I don’t have coffee and milo.”she said.”wow at least ate not 20php hahaha..”and I realized yeah right,it increased.I am still lucky.
Then the mayor give us one thousand,I thought I can make escabeche but my online loans called me up,so I have no choice but to pay the interest 900php good thing is I still have 100php.I need to have load for one week as I am the assigned servant for that week so I need to have a load in order to connect with my co-servants……..really every blessings I received has a purpose.then I tell it to my friend and again her answer is “always be thankful ate at least you are able to pay the interest despite of the crisis.””and what about my food?”I tell her what I feel.it’s another one month to go,where do I get food,I don’t have rice and stocks anymore.after that day the brgy officials give us a relief goods.”wow!I have rice 3 kilos and 2 sardines,1 corned beef.and after a week they also give us another 3 kilos of rice and thank God not much sardines but eggs!”I felt so very blessed.due to not having a netflix anymore,I started to read the bible,and it feels good.sometimes I forgot the time by just reading it.I realized how lucky I am and to repent my sins as I thought what I did before is not a sin but when I read the bible it was.being a jolly I become serious.but still I am craving with my escabeche(its like a sweet and sour fish)everyday my friend chatted me.and she send me 700php for my escabeche.I was so happy on that.so I went to the market but there is no fish.only meats.what I did is buy my personal needs(safeguard,bar soap,dish washing liquid,powder soap,vicks etc.)then additional coffee and bread,vegetables and dried fish.that was okay cause I have more time reading the bible that time I didn’t go outside to buy anymore.after two weeks of course I consume my stocks and I don’t have extra money again to buy some.and the Mayor announced to have a total lockdown for 48 hours so three days before we need to have stocks while we can.thinking where to go I decide to called someone and fixed my Gcash but I don’t have a data,I have no choice that Day but to ask my co-servant if it’s okay with her to load me 100php on my Globe for the remaining balance she have.I told her I only have 20php in my pocket so I cannot buy a load.to my surprise she told me that she will send me 500 in my bank account,I felt so low in myself that time but I am thankful for it’s a blessing I have to accept it.I said thank you Lord for all of these whatever happens I will always be needing you.then I fall asleep.when I woke up in the morning I am thinking of my friend 500 but it was more than that one of our heads in the ministry send me one thousand in my bank account. Truly when someone left you in the middle of crisis He will send you a Replacement.with that I’ve got an escabeche!everything that happened to me has a purpose…………he knows that I need again for another two weeks,he deliver it in advance without me knowing it.and the time I needed it that is the time he let me talk to the person who blessed me after we talked in zoom apps…………
With all of these miracles I received from our almighty God,I realized :
-that it is better to give than to receive.
-always trust him and he will not abandon you.
-he knows what you need.
-he knows whom who will blessed you.so don’t be hurt if someone don’t help you.
