The flood last January 4, 2008 has affected more than 5000 families. Last night as I was watching the news, there were 2 missing and 1 died. The affected families evacuated to the barangay covered courts and chapels. The picture showed a very sad site and my relatives were also affected by it. Good for them God protected them by allowing them to escape from their houses while the flood water is not yet too high. Thanks also to the neighbors who helped them as the managed to get away from their houses.
Despite of this calamity, I’m sure that the Lord is in control in the lives of my relatives and He is also in control in our city. He will allow us to see the works of His hand through this situation.
My cousin made a detailed update on what happened to them as they experienced the flood. You might want to check it out at Day to Day Miracles.
This is really a big blow to the people living in riverbanks. We had this when I was in elementary grades. And that was 27 years ago. Hoping that the President visit them today for moral/financial support.
It’s amazing how high the water rose during the flood. It’s sad someone died pero at least di kaayo daghan.
