| The Lord always remembers you. |
Isaiah 49:15 Can a woman forget her sucking child,
that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
This verse is very special to me.
It is the only verse that I remember When my father was in the hospital.
I do remember when it is my day to stay in the hospital and its mom's day to go home, to take home all dirty clothes and stuff, and for her to take some rest.
It's a sleepless night but my heart is full of joy, because on my part I know I can minister to my dad in that way.
I was in the hospital, all night just praying, and read the bible, this verse was stuck in my head.
You know if the word of God hits you and remains in you, there is a big impact that the Lord and the Holy Spirit want you to believe in.
I know all words of God have an impact right? But it is a different thing that the word of God remains in you even you dont memorized it. It means that, that the word of God you have read is what you need the most in that situation.
I do remember when morning comes, and it's time for me to go to class and Ministry, even I dont have sleep, my heart melted knowing my father will be alone there and will wait for Mom's coming.
I have all my worries, burden, and negative thoughts but my father will tell me, "umalis ka na, nak, malelate ka pa, mamaya-maya darating na din ang mama mo."
I dont have a choice because I need to go back to the Christian house to prepare myself and to go to church to do ministries.
And we will end up praying for his life and the life of those who are in the hospital.
While I am in a public vehicle I am crying. Tears won't stop dropping.
I dont care if someone was in there with me, but God reminds me of the ISAIAH 49:15. And all of a sudden all negative thoughts, fear, and worries are all gone.
WHAT IS THE LESSON OF THIS ONE?
BRETHREN
I know we have battles sometimes that we can't handle.
We have stress that we cannot handle.
We are broken-hearted and we cannot handle it too.
We have lots of things that we cannot handle. But thank God for his words that keeping us strong, encourage us when we are about to quit, and help us to enlighten our days.
Indeed, the word of God is always powerful in every situation we were in.
That's why we must have time to read the Bible and to meditate on the words that were written therein.
Because the word of God is very useful indeed!
I am one hundred percent sure saying that I cannot survive heartaches, fear, stress, and such things without the word of God that reminds me how the Lord cares, loves, and remembers me all the time.
And for sure, you also can't survive every day without the word of God.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY

Letter for my Brethren
I pray that the Holy Spirit of God helps us to remind us every day to read and meditate on the word of God. I pray also while we read and meditate on the word of God its work manifested in us.
I plead the blood of Jesus to cover all of you in harm in Jesus' name, Amen.
