God creates us special


'Ako ay espesyal!' (I am special! in tagalog)

This week's session was a reminder of God's special love for each one of us children. Our skit for the day was based loosely on the children's story by Max Lucado called 'You are special'.




This was also the same weekend we witnessed and participated in a funeral mass. The mother of one of our children passed away because of complications in her health. She was only 41 years old. Leaving behind young children and a husband. Already in our present world, very few people around us would affirm us of our 'uniqueness' and 'specialness', if ever, they would have come from our own parents and when we were young. reflecting on this child's life without a parent now, i wonder...

Thank you Lord for every moment i could spend with my family. To cherish the numbered days, to practise patience remembering that i cannot take each day for granted.
