Wait for Him!

Thank You, Abba Father... for answering my prayers!

I remember the time that I was tempted to be vaccinated in Antipolo (not residing there), instead of waiting to get vaccinated in the area where I reside.

Like I got a lot of offers:

I got an offer from a friend who has a family residing in Antipolo, she said that I just needed to change my address as I fill up. I said NO without a doubt. I know that it is not pleasing to the LORD to do that.

My friend suggested that I get vaccinated in Las Pinas (which is legit - you can be vaccinated there even if you are not residing there), although it's too far from me. I almost tried it. but God reminded me to wait on Him.

Then, a sister in Christ suggested that I get vaccinated on a Saturday, it was a good offer as it is also legit. However, I am volunteering at Nextgen on Saturdays. I almost tried it.  But God reminded me again to wait on Him.

I also tried registering on our office link, but it was not successful.

I am also waiting and praying for my sister's company's provided vaccine, this is even before the second and third offer. 

I also thought that I would be vaccinated in Makati (I was thinking that there's a higher probability for that to happen since it is a City).

I registered for the vaccine last June or July 2021 - and I was not expecting the schedule this week. But we were just talking about it in our Dgroup last Saturday - Oct. 2, and I am also thinking of getting infected before being vaccinated. I did not voice it out to the Lord or I forgot if I did voice it out with my mind and heart. But I am really hoping to get Pfizer for my vaccine. 

And at last, after 3 months or so of waiting - I received the text for my schedule yesterday. And guess what? It is a Pfizer vaccine. I told my sister about it, prayed, chatted with my boss, and he gave me permission to be vaccinated. :)

"Romans 8:28 For we know all things work together for good, for those who love God, for those who are called according to His purpose."

With this experience, I see how God answered my prayers, and how He wants me to trust Him and wait for His timing on the things that I need (like vaccines). It draws me closer to Him, and not trust myself or what I see... God is Sovereign. God sees and cares. He alone is worthy of praise and thanksgiving!
