June 23, 2026
On this Seventh Day of our Novena, Most Rev. Sean B. Mejia, D.D., Bishop of the Apostolic Vicariate of Tabuk, invited us to reflect on a simple yet profound question:
"Sa buhay mo, alam mo ba ang plano ng Diyos?"
Through the readings of the day and the celebration of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist, we were reminded that God is present in our lives from the very beginning. Even before we were born, God knew us, loved us, and prepared a unique mission for each one of us.
Like Saint John the Baptist, whose life was carefully woven into God's plan, we are called to trust in the Lord's guidance even when we do not fully understand where He is leading us. God's plans may not always be clear, but His faithfulness never fails.
Bishop Sean also challenged us to move beyond merely speaking about Christ and become true witnesses of Him. A narrator simply tells the story, but a witness is transformed by the story and lives it out each day.
As devotees of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, may we continue to entrust our lives to God, trusting that He walks with us through every joy, struggle, and uncertainty. And like Saint John the Baptist, may we have the courage to prepare the way for the Lord through our words, actions, and faithful witness.
Today, let us pray:
"Lord, help me recognize Your plan in my life. Guide me in Your ways and give me the courage to be Your witness."
