During the last day of confinement of my son, I had the opportunity to visit one of the most prestigious and advance hospitals in the Philippines- Asian Hospital and Medical Center.
I went there to buy some supplies and
to pay the doctor who had generously lent his machine for my son's operation. While
finding my way out, the elevator led me (yes it was an accident) to the hospital’s
chapel. I entered and I noticed that it’s not that big but it is a very serene
place. It’s a very conducive haven to
entrust your cares and thanksgiving after days of uncertainty.
But more than the ambiance, what
inspires me more inside the chapel is to see doctors making signs of the cross,
kneeling and praying. Some of them stayed for about two to
three minutes, some of them just came to dropped-by. But just the same, it was an
inspiring moment. It was inspiring to me because it’s my
first time to see doctors in uniform praying in front of the Greatest Healer of
all. Doctors who somehow I considered “gods” and entrusted the fate of my son the
past days are now knelling and teaching me to depend on God. What a display of humility,
dependence and faith!Surely, one of the blessings He gave me through these trying times.
For He reminded me again to be humble and always depend on Him.
And not only that! He made me realized that He really stayed, indeed He never leaves…
That indeed he never leaves me, my wife and definitely my son.
For this Great Doctor and Teacher of
all, always be the glory!
P.S. Dedicated with prayers to all the doctors, nurses, pharmacist and staff of Ospital ng Muntinlupa and Asian Hospital and Medical Center who generously assist my son. Thank you very much.
