I posted a prayer request last July 29 for Rev. Prince Santos. These are the updates.
(Good news) His wife’s operation (caesarean section) was successful. They have a new baby boy.
(Sad news) His mother died this morning (Manila Time) from cancer.
Please continue to pray for them. That God comfort them and give them strength.
Thanks.
Soli Deo Gloria.
I’d like to make a prayer request.
Please pray for Rev. Prince Santos and his family. His mother was diagnosed to have a bone cancer and her condition is not good. She suffered before from a different cancer and was treated through chemotherapy. Now she developed cancer of the bone.
At the same time, his wife, Melai, is scheduled for a caesarean section for their second child.
Please pray for healing and provision for their family. Pray that God would give them hope and strength in this time of trials.
Thanks.
Soli Deo Gloria.
I just got my new phone. But today, it’s gone. It was stolen from me while riding a passenger jeep to home. I didn’t noticed it in the beginning. But after it was taken from me and checked my pocket, I knew who took it. I didn’t do anything cause I don’t want to put my life in danger (snatcher’s/robbers here in the Philippines wouldn’t hesitate to kill if someone disagrees with what their doing).
With this incident, I felt angry, sad, and troubled. But God is teaching me through this event. I realized I am missing a few very important responsibilities. I am a the head of our family (a husband and a father), but I wasn’t able to conduct prayer/devotion time, tithing and sincere dedication to God’s ministry. I was so occupied by my job, internet, computer, CSI, etc, that I am using these things as an excuse to not do my/our responsibilities to God. After a long time, my wife and I prayed before I went to work. And honestly, tears are flowing from my eyes (and hers). And she told me she’s happy cause we were able to pray again (as a family). And I felt God moved that time, my burden was lightened (though I still feel troubled by what happened, I already accepted the reality).
I wish I was able to copy pictures and phonebook entries from that phone. Just lost a lot of photos.
But as my favorite CSI character says (Gill Grissom): “let go and move on”.
“In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” I Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV)
