I turned 30 last July 17. This birthday brought me some of the biggest birthday blessings i could ever remember and I thank God for making it truly special in ways I couldn't imagine.
July 10, a week exactly before My Day, I finally passed my CSC exam on my third take (oh well, not really bad, i guess..) which I have been praying for since I had my first take on it. For some, it may not be a big deal but since I'm into government service, it was for me.
July 16, I have been worried about some financial matters during the week. The loan that we applied for several days ago has been approved but not yet released and time was running out. I need it on the weekend. I inquired it Friday afternoon and alas! nothing's there yet but since the day was not yet over, I was still hopeful. I tried it around 6pm that same day and ola! It was there! I was jumping up and down to my delight.
July 18, i went to visit my dad who had been living with his own family in another place and to my surprise (well, sort of... hehehe!), they were preparing a little post-birthday celebration for me (yey!). It's been quite a long time since I last celebrated my birthday with them... and yes (let me segue a little), how can i forget that delicious Mango Tart cream cake from Conti's? That was highly recommended. :D
These were just few surprises that God has in store for me on my special day but I always believe that the greatest and most important gift that He has given me was this special day to celebrate life. We always struggle to survive life's challenges. No matter how big or small it may be, we still struggle to survive and each day of each year, we become survivors of it... and so I thank my God for my everyday life. :D
