A TRIUMPH OF FAITH, AND DETERMINATION!

This piece is about how Faith, Determination and Hope helped one of our friends to free herself from being a battered wife and finally find peace and happiness in life.

Just call her Liza, of Dubai. Here’s her story, in her own words:

Good evening, Boyet.

Ako man ay hindi naging mapalad sa buhay may asawa. Pero sa gabay ng ating Lord Jesus, nalagpasan ko lahat ng pagsubok na dumating sa buhay ko.

Ngayon, malalaki na lahat ang mga anak ko. During the time na nagsasama pa kami, impyerno ang buhay namin. Gabi-gabi, lasing ang asawa ko at nghahanap ng away para lamang ako’y masaktan niya.

Walang araw na hindi ako umiiyak at halos araw-araw niya akong saktan physically. Doon ako nakaranas ng takot.

Dumating ang panahon na ako’y sumubok mag-abroad. Noon  na ako nagkaroon ng lakas ng loob na hindi na ako babalik sa kaniya.

It took long for me na maka-recover. But now, thanks to God Almighty, happy na ako sa buhay ko as single.

Thank you so much. More power!

To all the other Lizas, whether or not you’re married and it’s either physical or emotional pain you’re suffering, or both:

Liza succeeded in finding peace and happiness because she held on to her faith and hope. She had the determination to do what should be done.

Prayer is the most powerful remedy but sometimes YOU HAVE TO ACT, first, to obtain your petitions. As we say in the vernacular, nasa Diyos ang awa, nasa Tao ang gawa!

It’s your moral, or rather it’s everyone’s, duty to maintain self-respect and dignity. There’s no reason for anyone to suffer, especially physically, if we don’t have to.

Otherwise, you will be TOLERATING AN EVIL ACT!

Not all love affairs succeed. If yours won’t, you’re not alone and there’s nothing to be ashamed of. As I’ve said in a recent blog, you have the right to be happy.

God will always listen to our prayers. But sometimes, He wants us to make the first move before He pulls us out of whatever hell we’re into.

If Liza of Dubai can do it, so can you! Have Faith. 30
