4TH DAY MISA DE GALLO, DEC. 19

THANK YOU MOM!

After the Earthquake had subsided, when the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman’s house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. But her pose was somehow strange that she knelt on her knees like a person was worshiping; her body was leaning forward and her two hands were supporting an object. The collapsed house had crashed her back and her head.

With many difficulties, the leader of the rescuer team put his hand through a narrow gap on the wall to reach the woman’s body. He was hoping that this woman could still be alive. However, the cold and stiff body told him that she had passed away. He and the rest of the team left this house and went to search the next collapsed building.

For some reasons, the team leader was driven by a compelling force to go back to the ruin house of the dead woman. Again, he knelt down and used his hand through the narrow cracks to search the little space under the dead body.

Suddenly, he screamed, “A child! There is a child!”

The whole team worked together, carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3 months old little boy wrapped in a flowery blanket under his mother’s dead body. Obviously, the woman had made an ultimate sacrifice to save her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son.

The medical doctor came quickly to exam the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cell phone inside. There was a text message on the screen, it said: ”Dear baby, if you can live, always remember that I love you.”

This story was claimed to be a true story. Whether it is true or not, we can’t be wrong with mothers’ love and their sacrifices. We love you mothers!!!

Today we celebrate the 4^th Misa de Gallo with the theme: ang Berhin Maria ug ang mga Inahan. A mother’s love is immeasurable and we must not forget about that. Gihulma kita sa sabakan sa atong inahan ug kon wala sila wala kita sa kalibutan. Atong hinumduman ang mga pag-antos sa atong inahan aron lamang kita mabuhi.

ang inahan mao ang gitawag ug ilaw ng tahanan. ilaw, ibig sabihin light in our home. walay makapildi sa pagpangga sa usa ka inahan tungod kay sa sabakan pa lamang daan giampingan na kita . kon wala pa kita gihigugma sa atong inahan siguro gipakuha na kita samtang kita gisabak. apan tungod sa iyang pagpangga natawo kita ug ania kita dinhi karon. 

Sa gamay pa ako maglisod na ako ug kakita ilabi na kon wala nay kahayag sa adlaw o nag ilog na ang kahayag ug kangitngit. kon moabot na kini nga oras unya wala pa ako makauli sa balay mabalaka na gayud ang akong mama. busa iya na akong pangitaon sa mga silingan. 

ang akong mama mao ang pinaka da best nga mama sa akong kinabuhi. tungod kay nabati nako ang iyang pagpangga isip usa ka anak. kon ikaw aduna pay usa ka inahan karon, angayan lamang nga imo siyang pasalamatan ug panggaon, ayaw na hulata nga mamatay na siya ayha paka mopabatyag sa imong kamapasalamaton. 

Karong adlawa gihagit kita sa pagpasalamat sa atong inahan buhi man siya o patay na. pasalamat sa iyang pag-amuma, sa iyang pag-antos, sa iyang paghigugma atong hinumduman niining gutloa ang atong tagsa-tagsa ka inahan. (Pause)

Salamat ma! Salamat nay! Salamat mom!
