I never knew the feeling until I witnessed it last night. Horrifying...I left my house around 12 midnight, sleepy and still feeling tired since working graveyard is so stressful. I took a jeep going to Guadalupe. It was not an empty ride. There was a middle-aged woman embracing her bags put on her lap. She was sitting right across me. I remembered even passing her "pamasahe" to the driver and even asked, " sa tulay po kayo?", she shook her head. "sa west lang ako.."West Rembo, for those so many who are not familiar with the place, is just so near where i took the jeep...
Along Pembo, there were 2 guys who took the same jeep where we were in. Ung isa nakasabit while the other one was sitting just an elbow beside me. Well, yeah. I usually sit middle of the jeep but last night, since ayoko mag abot ng pamasahe sa driver dahil super haba ng jeep, I intentionally sit beside that guy...my bag with my jacket clung to it was placed on my lap handsfree.
A few Blocks just before the middle-aged woman took-off the jeep...I don't know....but I instinctively grasped my bag and placed it on the left side of me..opposite that pretentious guy sitting right next to me...and then.."para! para! Para! sigaw nung guy na nakasabit. And then all of a sudden, when I turned my head right of me, the guy beside me incredibly nabbed the middle-aged woman's bag in a jiffy..The snatcher ran fast the narrow street and gone...totally eaten whole by the darkness..The woman was almost in tears. I had goosebumps all over me. Shocking!
Unexplainable...It was as if I had a telepathic mind that night. I realized how lucky and Loved I am. God never failed me in those times that I am unawarely needing His presence. Amazing. He's always right on time. Have I done something good to be blessed with such protection and care? Maybe. I don't know. I just realized that there were unseen angels around us sent by Him to keep us safe.. and the only way for us to send thank you is to be good in His eyes. Wonderful.
The night has pangs, it surfaced dangers. I learned that it would always be better to be keen and observant of the things and people around you. Maybe, next time I would go to work far earlier than devil's time. Our safety is something God wants us to be enveloped with.
Last night was one of those days when I could say that I have fully seen HIm. After all, that woman could have been me.
