I stood at the kitchen sink washing a bottle, listening to my baby cry from the living room. He was safe in his crib, his diaper had just been changed, but he was hungry. I hated hearing my baby cry, but I knew he was okay. And though he couldn’t understand it, I was preparing exactly what he needed, what he was crying for. In just a few minutes, with a full bottle in hand, I would pick him up and his cries would stop.

Standing over that kitchen sink, my heart realized how many times I have been in his place. I’ve been crying, safe and loved, but crying out to my God. My prayers shouting to Him exactly what I wanted, what I needed, but they were met with silence.

I couldn’t see Him. I didn’t recognize the work He was doing. And though I couldn’t understand it, He was preparing exactly what I needed, what I was crying for.

If you have found yourself in a season of crying out to God, wondering where He is or what He’s doing, remember that your Father in Heaven loves you more than you can imagine. He’s standing in the next room, listening to your cries, preparing what you need.

You have not been abandoned. You are not alone. Your God is at work. He hears your cries.

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”
(2 Corinthians 4:18, NIV)

LOOK: Ilonggo artists pay tribute to local delicacy sellers’ retirement through a mural at Barotac Viejo Public Market in Iloilo.

Ilonggo artists Marge Chavez, Epalan Noel, Isaac Bravo, and Marrz Capanang, Marz Capanang and Kristine Buenavista created a mural of 74-year-old Nang Maria, a local delicacy seller who has been actively selling in the public market of Barotac Viejo for years, to celebrate her craft. The mural also serves as a gift to Nang Maria as she retires.

“To us, she signifies the daily commitment of our local vendors to wake up and contribute in the local economy and the dignified lives of their families. Moreover, we admire Nang Maria’s silent way of keeping our native delicacies alive. She and the few remaining kakanin vendors in the public market are our own culinary culture bearers. She has also taught other younger women how to make these old-time favorites so they can have their source of income,” said Kristine, one of the artists behind the mural, in a Facebook post on Tuesday, October 22.

The mural is part of Artivism, a project which raises awareness on social issues through the arts.

This year, artists have collaborated with the LGU of Barotac Viejo, Iloilo for Patubas Festival to feature the town’s local harvests, and the real heartbeat of the public market: the vendors, small local business, and the community they have built over the decades.

“We hope that collectively, we are able to reflect on how we can support our local produce and kasimanwas. It is still a very beautiful and empowering thought that by buying from people from our own area, we become a part of each other’s lives, and we uplift each other day by day,” Kristine added.
