What I learn today: The Deep Well

I remember Father's(our adorable company priest) sermon on one of his first Friday masses. It is a story of the "Deep Well". 

"Why, he asks, does a well never runs out of water when we always fetch from it but suddenly becomes dry when we stop getting from it? It is because, he says, the well is simply charitable and selfless, it dies when it stops giving". 

The more we give, the more we become happy, blessed and fulfilled in life. Make it a habit to be generous and of service to others. =)

WhatI learn today: Theme Song with God

September 23

St Pio's Feast Day

I, together with Gi, Aleli and Ms Fanny attended a mass at St Pio's church for Padre Pio's feast day.

To end his(the Priest) sermon, he shares with us(he actually sang!) his theme song with the Lord. I never thought this love song could be a theme song with God! But I really felt his song and it became meaningful to me too.

Basta't kasama Kita by Dingdong Avanzado. Here's the chorus:


Basta't kasama Kita
Lahat magagawa
Lahat ay maiaalay sa'yo
Basta't kasama Kita
Walang kailangan pa
Wala nang hahanapin pa
Basta't kasama Kita.

What I learn today: The Wall

I want to share another story which I heard from the last mass I've attended. The story of "How did a spider's web saves the life of a wounded soldier."

A long time ago during a war, there was a wounded american soldier who's trying to run away and hide from Japanese soldiers to save his life.

He went into one of the many caves of a mountain and prayed desperately to God to build a wall on the cave's opening to protect him.

The Japanese soldiers have been hunting him for days. The soldier has been praying for protection since then.One day, he heard the Japanese soldiers stomping, shouting... he can feel them getting closer... and closer... his heart pounding... thinking it was the end of his life. But after a while, it was all quiet... they're gone... and he's still alive.

He wants to know what's possibly the reason they skipped to enter the cave. He went on just to find out a spider's web almost covering the cave's entrance.

Japanese soldiers, they say, checks every cave but then skips those that has untouched spider webs in its openings because they believe that if it is untouched, it means nobody went in.

God is so wise, He sometimes answer our prayers with sense of humor... a blessing in disguise! =)
