I onced featured Salin and her husband in one of my blogs but today she is my main topic. Salin is a mother of 2 lovely daughters,a sweet wife to a good husband who both hails from Pampangga, a make up artist, a God fearing mother and .... is now prepared to go back to our homeland FOR GOOD. For most OFW, this idea is the hardest thing to do...bumalik na sa Pinas and di na muling babalik sa abroad. This decision of hers is also a product of her being a submissive wife to her spouse. Plus the fact that they prayed for this. Sure they will not decide to go home IF they didn't have enough savings. Good for them huh cause they were able to save plus they bought properties already. hmmm NOT THAT BIG HOUSES in posh villages huh, what im saying is they have a place that they can call home.
Why i wanted to talk about Salin? It is because when i heard her testimony last November 10, 2011 thursday. ( FB-Thursday group bible study ) She started her testimony with .. I THANK GOD FOR THE TRIALS WE ARE EXPERIENCING. Wow! this is actually how we should pray, with thanksgiving in everything. You see, because her mother in law has been in and out of the hospital they are presently facing emotional & financial crisis. And after the 2nd hospitalization the money that they were able to save have all gone. Emotional - of course masakit yun na malaman mo na ooperahan mother mo, na nahihirapan sya etc... Financial - that's where the big problem steps in ang laking gastusin ng hinaharap nila. She was thinking, how on earth can they pursue their going home when all the money were already spent for her mother in law's hospitalization. She said in her prayers that, why now that i am really decided, excited to go home all of a suddenly maybe they will need to postpone it. And as a mother it's hard for her because she miss her children already plus talaga namang handang handa na siya, in tagalog, NAPURNADA PA. But there are things that plays in her mind, she said maybe there is another plans prepared by God, maybe the children is the one going to travel to kuwait, maybe its not yet the time etc...you see God has a perfect time for everything we just have to wait.
As i listen to her testimony tears just started to fall from my eyes. She is right masakit yun na kung kelan handang handa ka ng umuwi di pa matutuloy. And that is exactly what i am feeling. In fact i also posted this excitement of mine to go home for vacation. Its harder for me kase bakasyon na nga lang mukhang di pa matutuloy. But, i know and im praying that God will hear my prayers that God will set the perfect time for our upcomming vacation. Kung kelan to, hindi ko alam pero.... one thing im sure God has a perfect plan for us.
