First Wednesday of the Year

January 5, 2010 - first Wednesday of the year.

And a good way to welcome it was to spend an hour or two at Baclaran Church. After shift, I went to Baclaran church to hear mass and pray the novena to our Lady of Perpetual Help. It dawned on me that ever since I professed my faith, it has been with Baclaran Church I take my refuge.

It is with this Church I came to learn how to pray the rosary. I can still recall when I was just a five-year old little girl, my mom would bring me to Baclaran Chruch with a bribe that we will eat at Jollibee afterwards-hahaha. A few years later, just about two years ago, we did the same thing - but this time we went malling to MOA. hahaha..What an irony.

Two years ago, when my career came tumbling down on me - and I thought everything is slipping away from me too - it is with this Church I draw my strength from, aside from Family and Friends who gave me their unending support and encouragement. It is where I questioned Him (I know, I shouldn't); it is also where I wished and prayed hard for His Divine Intervention.

And thankfully I did happened. Now, what happened two years ago was a thing from my past - where lessons have been learned and still being applied to daily life.
