I attended a recollection last April 20, 2011 in Megatrade Hall at SM Megamall. I am so blessed with all the talks of the speakers and one of the highlight of the talk of Fr. Dave Concepcion, he showed this video. A video of Derek Redmond, an athlete, who depicts a story of great love, perseverance and fighting for the one that you really love and want. But what touched me the most is when his father came running towards to him from the crowd ready to support him seeing his child suffering and torment yet kept on running to finish the race. When he held his son, Derek, cried on his shoulder, he even told his son that there is no need to do it but seeing the great desire of Derek to finish his race, his father held him up and they do it together. And the father let go of Derek when they are near the finish line so that Derek can get all the glory. I bet his father was very happy and proud watching his son finish his own race with all his might, despite the pain.
I, myself come to reflect that the Father is like that, He let us finish our race and when trouble pains, when storm strikes and make us fall. He will be there, carrying us, helping us and showing His never fading love for us. All we just have to do is Never Ever Give Up! Winners are winners simply because they do not give up.!
Happy Easter! May you have found yourself closer to God this season. God bless you all! I'll be praying for you.
