Grace Upon Grace

Still on jet lag mode, I woke up around 4am and couldn't sleep again.

I still didn't know the news at home because I didn't ask neither my mom messaged me anything.

I cried in silent and had conversation with Jesus, I told Him what I felt inside.
It was like a sword piercing my soul, I was helpless and powerless seeing my loved ones suffer thousand miles out there and yet I couldn't do anything. My physical and mental strength had been dried out.

In the morning, we visited Mount Tabor where Jesus was presumably going to that mountain to pray and asked 3 disciples to come along. And transfiguration happened when He encountered Moses and Elijah.

We had morning mass there and after communion we had outpouring holy spirit prayer. There, I received a grace and strength from the Lord. I felt peace and had strength to accept and embrace things that happen not according to my expectation.
There's one verse that kept ringing in my head.
