My Heart Aches for Cebu and the Philippines 💔🙏

Hello everyone!

Hope all are safe and well! ☺️❤️🙏

Until now, my heart aches every time I see the news and photos about Cebu and other parts of the Philippines. The devastation that Typhoon Tino left behind is truly painful to see. The flash floods, the houses washed away, cars floating on the streets, people crying for help — it’s heartbreaking. 💔

I’ve been watching the updates online and reading stories from those who experienced it. Every time I see those images, I can’t help but imagine the fear and the struggle they went through. I can feel their cries and agony. It’s not easy to lose your home, your things, and even loved ones in just a few hours. 💔

As a Filipino, it hurts so much to witness our own people suffering again. After Typhoon Odette, and all the other disasters that passed, here we are once more trying to rise from another storm. And now, another super typhoon is coming when people haven’t even recovered yet. It feels too much sometimes. 😢

I may not be in Cebu right now, but it still feels so close to me. Cebu is my second home. I spent many years there, worked there, built memories there. Seeing it submerged and broken brings a different kind of pain. It’s not just about the place, but the people that are hardworking, hopeful, and strong. Now, struggling again to rebuild. 🙏🙏🙏

Every post I see online makes me pause and pray. Some are still missing, some are homeless, some lost everything. Yet in their faces, I still see hope. That’s what amazes me about Filipinos — no matter how many storms come, they still stand, still smile, still say, Thank God we’re alive. 🙏🙏🙏

I also feel scared because another typhoon is heading toward Luzon. I keep praying for everyone’s safety — for my family in Leyte, for my friends in Cebu, and for all those in danger. May God protect us all. 🙏🙏🙏

To everyone affected by Typhoon Tino, my heart goes out to you. I may not be there physically, but my prayers are with you. May you all find strength, comfort, and hope in these trying times. 🙏🙏🙏

Let’s keep praying for the Philippines. 🇵🇭🙏🙏🙏

Lord, heal our land and protect Your people. 🙏❤️
