As you know our country is suffering from bad weather and most of the place here in Metro Manila are flooded. I am watching news in television and my heart touch and cry when I saw my countrymen crying, hungry, wet, cold and trembling under the rain. I am safe here in my house, watching TV, mylotting, drinking coffee and has food but I pity those people whose suffering from floods who needs shelters, dry clothes, hot meals and warm bed. I am praying that this disaster will end very soon. We also need you help my dear friends, please for our country and countrymen. Thank you very much.

I'm praying very hard to God too to alleviate all the sufferings and I thank God for the blessings this early morning cause there is no flooding in where I am. Although all help would be welcome , I am also for more preparations next time ( think we are doing a better job than last time or ever before and we have more teams and equipment and better training), I am still for self reliance, disaster awareness and alertness and Government putting all these in top priority in budget to buy more equipment. Another thing, hope some of our country man would be fast to heed warnings like alerts to force evacuate and not be hard headed before it is too late. I am also an advocate of banning people from constructing shelters in disaster prone areas or where they would also hinder the natural flow of water that would affect us all later. Yes those of us with a little extra to give, let us help them thru prayers and donations.

I hope that you are all safe in there. I've been worrying since this morning because I know that those areas will be greatly affected by flood so I understand how you feel. Let us continue to pray that God would help us and keep us safe. I also hope that they could remove those water lilies that is one of the factors that contributes to flood in those areas. In the mornings, I would usually seen the whole area beneath the bridge flooded with water lilies and even boats cannot pass in them. I hope that they would do something about it.

I thank God that we and our families are also safe here in our location although most of the areas here are flooded. It is really heart breaking every time we see our people suffering from this kind of weather/calamities. They really need our prayers so I beg for all people to continue praying for their safety and that the weather would calm the soonest. It is very alarming the rain hasn't stopped. I know that prayers can go a long way so let us not stop praying for our safety.
