"Perfect Mom"


I am a mom of three wonderful healthy kids ages 17 (turning 18 this coming July) 15 and 12 and I thank God so much for these rewards who give me strength to fight all odds. I am writing this first testimonial about the Healing Power of fervent prayers.

When I was still young (I still feel I am. lol) I saw mothers taking care of their kids, most of the times kids got sick. See them crying, rushing to the hospitals. Sobbing and asking themselves what went wrong? It seems to me they feel so  helpless, and entrusting the wellness of their precious rewards to a trained individuals who have sworn to save and prolong lives.

It makes me wonder can I be that helpless?  or strong enough to face the challenges if its my own flesh and blood are the ones in pain? Can I still be a "perfect" mother when baby-problems strikes me? 

How can a helpless mom be, to a helpless baby? How can I overcome lost when all else fails? Again, I can feel fears engulfing me. It haunts me more when I  was confirmed pregnant at an early age of 21, with no mother-figure around to help me with the do's and dont's of being a mom. Was this a real test? Will I pass or fail?

July 18, 1992 is the day I delivered my first baby girl thru x-section. (Oh so soon she'll be turning into a lady) A start of my lifetime commitment. Wow! and OMG!  Nursing while recuperating? Fears are piling up. It should be a NO-NO to post-partum depression. I can not handle it anymore.

So what's the big deal!? as other may say... so what faith has to do with this thing?

Considering my ignorance, and what lies along being a mom of this three lovely kids I have, NO sickness struck them that made me rush them to the hospital that I could make me feel so helpless.

Why? 

It is because I came to learn to pray fervently when  facing  health problems.  And I believe that the  Greatest Healer in the universe is the Almighty Father. 

I never rattle myself, coz it is sign of mistrusting. Yet I feel so helpless, in a way that I am asking God to do the rest. 

I can say I was indeed a "Perfect Mother" to my kids' childhood years by keeping them healthy. Perfect in a way that I let God rule my life. No one I know is perfect only Him  

So I must say, to be a "Perfect Mom" is a "Mom with God". 


-----(But I am not saying that I don't trust medical professionals. What I did  is seek Him first , putting my trust with all my might. So grateful He did the Miracle Healing to my kids. as I call it. I believe there are certain instances that we need to seek for their assistance and I trust their vows.)
