Yesterday, I went to St. Pio Chapel in Libis, Quezon City. I arrived late for the mass but I was lucky enough that I was not late for the anointing of the oil which they usually do right after every mass. After I had been anointed with the oil I sat near the life-size Virgin Mary statue, my plan was to pray the rosary before I leave the Chapel, but then i noticed some people on the left isle of the chapel they were properly and quietly waiting for their turn to the anointing of the oil... I observed quietly and trying to figure out why it's taking the person being on the first line too long for the anointing... 10 minutes, 15, 20 and whoa! 30 minutes and the people were still falling in line on that special place inside the chapel. I was perplexed that I could not help myself but to ask the young boy who's carrying the board with the sign of " Last Line"... and with him I found out that the lay minister (which I thought he was just a lay minister) doing the anointing of the oil was the Director of St. Pio Chapel, Mr. Ramon E. Rodriguez.. a devotee of Padre Pio ( you can watch him on this link, one of Rated K's episode about St. Pio: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc7XG37dU-g ... I was so curious and wanted to talk to him and ask for help to pray for me.
The next day (today) I attended the mass and again I was late for the first reading and the first part of the mass (sorry). This time around I fall in line together with the people who want to be blessed and ask help by means of the anointing of the oil..with Bro. Ramon E. Rodriguez. While I was approaching near to Bro. Ramon i felt my heart was beating so fast, my hands were cold and a little bit shaking and perspiring.. huh? why?.. I don't know, perhaps I was just tense.. 7 from first line...6..5..4..3..2.. and my turn! the next thing I know was hearing his soft spoken voice and hearing him praying for me... to keep me safe from harm.. worries..doubts..accidents..incidence... then there was silence while he's holding my left hand. Then he said to me that he can see my aura is so good that I should take care of it and that I should not let any mistake ruin my good aura.. He also saw that I was in doubts and worries ( which amazed me because it's true).
There was so many things he said and after that I felt lighter... I was thankful that he also remind me that I am in good health and He never see any worst problem I am facing ( Thank God!).
I am happy Jesus speak to me through Bro. Ramon and I believed in that.. truly God speaks through other people..through your heart if only you know how to listen.
