The whole time I stayed at home is really full of stress and boredom. But I am really thankful that God made a way to keep me pre-occupied from day to day. I talk to different friends every day and telling them my story. I asked them, not for sympathy, but for prayers for me and baby Luke. I began to appreciate the beauty of reading good books like “The Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren and “The Daily bread”. I seek the assistance of Saint Jude, The patron of the hopeless and began my 9 days novena to the Divine mercy. I felt so relieved after giving up everything to the Lord. I felt that I am never alone and I have all the hope that everything will be ok. One time, during my quiet moment, I just remember the song “Lift up Your Hands” so I immediately searched the internet for the lyrics. This gave me the answer to all my questions…
The song: Lift Up Your Hands
by Basil Valdez
If you believe in yourself
If you believe there's Someone
Who walks through life without you
You'll never be alone
Just learn to reach out,
And open your heart
Lift up hands to God,
And He'll show you the way.
And He said, "Cast your burdens upon Me
Those who are heavily laden,
Come to Me, all of you who are tired
Of carrying heavy loads,
For the yoke I will give you is easy
And My burden is light,
Come to Me and I will give you rest."
When you feel the world
Is tumblin' down on you,
And you have no one
That you can hold on to,
Just face the rising sun
And you'll see hope,
And there's no need to run
Lift up your hands to God,
And He'll make you feel all right.
And He said, "Cast your burdens upon Me
Those who are heavily laden,
Come to Me, all of you who are tired
Of carrying heavy loads,
For the yoke I will give you is easy
And My burden is light,
Come to Me and I will give you rest."
