I prayed for the day wherein I will be able to smile.
I prayed for the day where all the pain that resided my heart will go away.
I prayed for the day where I can be as happy as you are. Or even more than that if it’s not too much to ask.
While you are busy reading this article, try mo rin makinig sa episode namin:
I prayed for the day where I am not affected by your presence and every thing you do.
I prayed for the day where I am healed, restored, and transformed.
I prayed.
I did.
And today, still isn’t the day.
Today is still not the day where I will realize the reason behind every thing that happened.
Today is still not the day where I fully comprehend why things turned up like that.
Today is not the day.
But, I’m getting by.
Every day.
Every day I try to smile.
Every day I tell myself that pain isn’t what I have in my heart.
Every day I laugh as loud as I can.
Every day I watch you from afar, pretending that your presence is okay.
Every day, I still pray for healing, restoration, and transformation.
Faking it, ’til I make it?
No.
I am putting my faith to Him.
As I tell myself every day that things will be alright, I am also laying every thing down in front of my Creator.
As I remind myself that pain isn’t what I have in my heart, I ask God for love and joy.
As I try to laugh out loud, my insides cry as much.
As I pretend you don’t exist, God reminds me that He loves you, too.
And, as I pray for healing, restoration, and transformation, I also pray for yours.
Maybe, today is not the day.
But I know, we are closer to that day.
That day is going to be the someday I have been praying for.
That day will be someday.
love, s.
