Kap & I take turns leading the family prayer every night. Before we retire at the end of the day, he would gather us close, hold hands (sometimes even feet), and we pray as a family. This is our nightly ritual since the kids were small, no fail. Kap is really a good & effective Godly leader especially in our home. #luckymewifey
Naughty me, I always dread the nights when it’s his turn to pray kasi naman ang haba ng dasal nya, lol. Lahat nalang yata ng kakilala namin, pinagdadasal nya at sinasama sa prayer of safety. Walang paltos yan. He will start with the mudras, kaming 2, the kids, relatives, the household members, his staff, our neighbors, our friends, our pastors & leaders of the country, and the list goes on. Mahaaaabaaaaaa. Minsan nakakatulog na nga ako sa sobrang haba. Ganun.
Several weeks ago, our driver -who is actually like family to us, got involved in a vehicular accident. One which, if not for God’s interecession and a huge miracle, would have cost him his life. And he would have left behind his wife, 3 daughters, and a young grandson. Thank God for His goodness & mercy, Anderson’s life was spared & he was given a new lease.

Anderson is so very attached to the motorcycle we got for him as a simple but heartfelt token for driving our kids to school. He never had anything to his name that when he finally owned a piece of property, he valued it & cared for it the best he can. Laging nasa loob ng garahe namin yan, may kulambo pa until rider & vehicle gets reunited once again at the end of the day.
At a stop light on his way home from ours that fateful Friday, a car carrying a female Korean National bumped into him out of the blue, causing Anderson to fly from his motorcycle & land a few feet away. Thank goodness the surrounding vehicles were at a full stop so he wasn’t run over when he catapulted. And thank goodness he was thrown off, otherwise he would have been crushed & mangled to death under all that steel. That he got out of this accident intact, with just superficial scratches, is a wonder & a miracle.

Just thinking of it makes me shudder & gives me the creeps. Looking at the photos, I can only marvel at God’s goodness & grace for sparing Anderson’s life. I would like to believe that Kap’s prayer had at least a little to do with that. Anderson was truly covered in His protection that day, no doubt about it.
Kap really has a good heart. He really cares & would go the extra mile even if there’s nothing in it for him. On the spot, before calling anyone else -not even his family, Anderson thought of calling Kap for assistance. And my husband, without thinking twice, jumped in his car & sped off to the rescue, ready for anything & everything. He’s really a super hero, not just to me & our kids, but to anyone who would ask for his help.
From 5pm when it happened until close to midnight, Kap never left Anderson’s side even at the police station. He also negotiated & made sure the damages incurred would be justly compensated & the medical bills will be paid by the careless Korean National.
Unfortunately, DONGGI KIM, the Korean National from Cavite who signed a waiver agreeing to buy Anderson a new motorcycle, is now in hiding. Kap has been calling her non-stop & when someone finally answered -one of her household staff, she said the mistress refuses to buy a new motorcycle & considers the waiver null & void as she doesn’t speak English & was made to sign during duress. So we encouraged Anderson to file a case na against her. Napaka-walanghiyang tao! Sa presinto kaharap ang mga pulis nakakaintindi ng tagalog at daig pa ang maamong tupa, ngayong nakapag-isip na at nasulsulan ng abogado nya bigla nalang nagka-amnesia?

This, from a well-to-do woman driving a brand new Sta. Fe, with a home & a business. Itong napakaliit na bagay ipagkakait pa nya sa taong napinsala nya. A brand new motorcycle to replace the one we got for Anderson costs around 65k only. Had he suffered extensive damages like broken bones or worse, a head trauma, the Korean National’s expenses would amount to more. Until now, our driver is still shell-shocked & cries at the drop of a hat. May PTSD kagagawan ng Koreanang yan!

Please help us storm the gates of heaven so that God will speak to the heart of Kim & she will face her responsibilities head on. Romans 12: 19 “Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. God shielded Anderson from harm. Matakot sana itong Koreana sa maaring gawin sa kanya ng Panginoon!
Anderson is really hard-working. After his duty driving Ate to & from school, and when there’s still time, he would take out a jeepney for boundary just so he can earn extra for his family. Weekends too, instead of taking a rest, he would drive the jeep from morning til midnight. Ni hindi yan nagsi-sine unless we buy him a ticket & force him to watch while we go around the mall, para hindi naman siya mabagot kahihintay.

I know God still has a purpose for Anderson that’s why he remains with us ’til now, against all odds. Hindi pa nya oras. ATM, Kap loaned him a service car to get to & from work. It’s also a safer mode of transportation which is why we’re considering matching whatever Anderson can get from the Korean national & upgrading his vehicle to a car, hopefully soon. Kap has a golden heart talaga, bless him.
From now on, I promise never to get weary ever again when Kap prays long & hard. 😛 Because I know that God listens to him, and we are all the better for it. Thank you my Honey for all that you are, and all that you do. :-*

April 6, 2017 at 9:51 amHaaaay nag-file na kaso alam mo naman ang ating justice system… #ewan 3
April 6, 2017 at 5:08 pmPraise God indeed! Rejoicing with you, Mommy Jane!
Naiiyak ako sa kabutihan ng loob talaga ni Kap. Like David, he is “after God’s own heart”. May the Lord bless him even more. Such commendable caring and sincere love from Kap, your Kap.
For the Korean National, I pray that the Lord will unceasingly nudge her conscience for the right thing to do, for her to honor her promise and for her to have the honesty to admit the actual event that transpired and for the good to win at the end.
God bless your family, Mommy Jane, and yes, be patient with Kap’s prayer.
Maikwento ko lang… Sa house din (I mean, my folk’s house), pag si daddy ang in-charge sa prayer ang habaaaaaaa eh kakain lang naman kami. Hahahaha! My mom would tease her “parang gisto mo pa mgpa-altar call.” But, aren’t we blessed for having Godly and God-fearing men lead their homes?
April 6, 2017 at 11:38 amHahaha yes Candy we are so blessed indeed to have men after God’s own heart. Godly leaders are few & precious, I pray one day our kids will also be given God-fearing & God-loving spouses. :-*

I hope that i will get a husband like him in the future!! Responsible, caring, maka diyos, and ofcourse rich to provide my needs. Hehehehe so shocked that he will provide anderson a new car! Omg.. he’s really lucky to become part of your family! Pwede ba mag apply na yaya? Kahit tiga paypay lang!! Hehehehe
April 8, 2017 at 6:36 pmHi Shane. 🙂 Yes, we are truly blessed & I thank God every day for my family. And kaloka, 2nd hand lang naman na kotse, not brand new hahaha. Anderson has been with us for more than 30 years he is family. 🙂
April 9, 2017 at 8:42 amWow! I really truly believe that God took care of Anderson – the picture you shared of the vehicles crushing the motorcycle was just bone chilling. Sinagip talaga sya ni God, nothing else can explain how that happened.
April 11, 2017 at 10:25 amAnd even if di sya mabalikan ng Korean national na bumunggo sa kanya – I also believe God will bless him more than the cost of the dmamaged/destroyed motorcycle and his injuries.
God Bless you and Kap too Jane, its a good thing praying for other people 🙂
I know right? Everyone who sees the mangled motorcycle cannot believe that Anderson got out alive! We are just so thankful that he is alive & well. Thank you for your blessings. :-*
