The Cry of a Wife and a Mom's Heart...




She is suffering in silence....her heart is torn between joy and loneliness. Yes, she is happy because she is back home and is now with her two kids, yet, she is lonely because her other loved ones are left in a country devastated by a calamity.

She can still recall the scenario in her vivid memory the sadness in her as she bids her husband and children goodbye...she is crying inside for she doesn't really know what will happen...in her heart there is pain to leave them behind. She is too helpless because she needs to be back home for her other children who are waiting for her...she needs to be home because she has other obligations and responsibilities. How painful that there is nothing she can do...if only she can stay, if only...

As she faces her everyday life, she has to deal with the roller coaster of her emotions...that of being happy and most of the time down spirited. As you look at her, she displays courage especially in front of her children and friends. She doesn't want them to see her that she is weak for she believes that as she is liberated from her own fears, her presence automatically liberates others. So she battles on her mental adversities, tries her best to cope with the struggles and keeps what she feels to herself.

At the moment she will take things as they come...She is actually embracing her situation with courage. How sad that she is helpless because she is far...in her heart she can only wish that she is with them in that way she will have peace of mind and untroubled heart. With these, she promises herself to live each day with prayers for her family because she believes that everything will be alright by the Grace of God.

Amidst uncertainty, amidst storms of adversity, she tries to keep the right perspective...It is heart wrenching to her everyday for she is faced with difficult emotions but she will remain steadfast in Christ. In her mind and heart she will find faith, hope and strength as she trusts in the Lord and make Him a constant part of her everyday journey. She believes that the CRY of her HEART is heard by her Father in heaven. The thought of this makes her withstand all trials and struggles in any form because she knows that God listens to her because she is His Beloved Child.
