Yesterday afternoon, Aileen and I left Maris Stella High School with great joy and relief that Jayden had managed to secure a place in the school after a nerve-racking Phase 2C balloting ordeal. As I recollect the months leading to the primary one registration period and balloting, my heart is filled with thankfulness to God for hearing our prayers and providing for Jayden. Being ineligible for the earlier 4 phases (for those who are not aware - Phase 1, 2A1, 2A2 and 2B based on some forms of affiliation), we decided to put our faith in God to provide for Jayden. Though anxiety and disbelief sought to overtake us especially during the week leading to the balloting day, God helped to overcome it by giving us His inner peace as we meditate upon His words. We knew we could trust God to provide what's best for our boy (even if we missed out on the balloting and needed to look for another school).
Looking ahead, we are trusting God to bless Joann (now in primary two) and Jayden with wisdom and ability to cope well with their studies.
