God Really Amazes Me...

Jun (my co-unit manager seated on my left) and I are having short chats once in a while to redirect our focus out of work. I guess this is one form of relaxation for us. Just last week, his youngest daughter (1 y/o) had a surgery at the Children's Hospital so he was out for 2 days. When he gets back to the office, he told me about the surgery, about other cases of children he saw at the hospital, and other stuffs. I remembered asking him how much hospital bill he was expecting. I believed he answered, "Approximately P50,000." That's already small compared to having the operation in a private hospital. When he was preparing all the necessary documents for release of her daughter, he mentioned about the professional fee of the surgeon being waived because the uncle of her wife knows the surgeon when he taught in university before. So that's a discount already for his daughter's operation expenses.

Yesterday, when we were about to go home he started the little chat with a statement...
"Na-ooverwhelm talaga ako sa mga nangyayari." He was referring to some instances relating to his daughter's operation.
So when I asked, "Bakit ano bang nangyari?" He started telling me about all professional fees of surgeon, perdiatrician, anesthesiologist were waived. And all other discounts given to them.
And then I interrupted and asked, "So, how much did you pay?"
"Baka di ka maniwala pag sinabi ko sayo yung binayaran ko?"
"Magkano nga? Wala pang P10,000?"
"Wala pa ngan P5,000 lahat-lahat!"
"Wow... grabe sobra-sobrang blessing naman yun! Pang-tithes mo lang yung hiningi ni Lord sa'yo." Jun smiled!

God truly provides even before we ask for it! He really amazes me sometimes with the stories of the people around me who experienced amazing things from Him. Jun is a Christian while I am a Catholic, but though we have different religion, we both agree how much God loves us and work in each one of us. Jun acknowledge the fact that God uses all the doctors and other people to show His love to Jun and his family. He is truly an amazing God and nothing can ever compare to Him!

Thank you Lord for using people close to me to re-affirm us of your love and how great and generous you are to all of us!
