How it all begun! That Unquenchable Passion!

Passion is often referred to as intense emotions reflecting a strong desire or limitless enthusiasm.

It wasn’t until a few years ago around 2010 when my second son who is very insightful and observant asked me, “Mom, don’t you ever get tired of teaching Childbirth Class over and over again?” My answer to him was an immediate obvious reply, “Why no!” I hadn’t thought about it really until he asked and that question made me ponder. It was like a light bulb moment! It wasn’t until then that I realised the meaning of passion! It was the driving force that have made me teach over and over the same topic through the years. I recall actually feeling it as it flooded my whole being with joy and purpose. At that time, I hadn’t understood what it was.

Let me share with you that experience. I so wanted to have a second child. I prayed so hard for a son after the birth of my daughter. In 1985 I had a miscarriage after 8 weeks & that devastated me! I was so anxious and restless. I remember our pastor, Peter Tan-Chi telling me, you prayed for it so leave it at the feet of Jesus and let Him answer it at His own time. Meanwhile don’t worry and don’t stressed, just go about your normal days. So I decided to do as he said and strengthened my wavering faith. At that time I was a very young Christian and my thirst to know Jesus was insatiable. I focused in going to bible studies and on reading my bible to get know more of Him.

One evening after being intimate with my husband, I remember praying with certainty, “Thank you Lord for this baby”. As soon as I uttered that prayer in my heart, I remember thinking, where did that prayer come from, why did I assume that? Then I realised it was my spirit growning one with the Lord. Then I heard a still soft mighty voice in my ear or was it in my head? He said, “You have been delighting in me, why will I not give you the desires of your heart?” There was a short pause the He continued to say, “It will be a boy.” The joy that filled my heart was indescribable. I had a personal encounter with God! The creator of the universe! My Abba Father! I took His word & believed it in my heart. I didn’t even go for any pregnancy test. I thought, if that was indeed an encounter with the Lord, then I will just take His word for it and it will be done. True enough my belly grew to full term!

The year was 1989. I had two selfless wonderful labor support women in my birth. Grace Zorilla who was with me in my bible cell group was the one recording the birth with my mini Sony cam video recorder and Carla Martinez, the Christian stage actress & singer was the one breathing with me. There were no other women labouring on that day. I was very well attended by my obstetrician, Dr. Mayette Sapaula & the rest of the staff. I was so blessed & privileged to have three Christian women with me in my birth. We had a karaoke-a machine that played cassette tapes, inside the delivery room. While I was pushing, Dra. Sapaula was praying silently while waiting patiently. Carla decided to play some Christian music & started to sing aloud. The whole room was filled with the glory of God. We could all feel His presence. It was awesome!

Immediately as my baby was born naturally, with no drugs and anaesthesia, my doctor said, “It’s a boy!” He cried vigorously and waved his hand as though he too was praising the Lord with us. I never wanted to know during the ultra sound the s*x of my baby. I always wanted it to be a surprise like the unwrapping of a gift. Besides, I already knew in my heart it was a boy for God can not be untrue to himself. As my son was placed on my chest, and I felt him for the first time, I smelled his sweet aroma for the first time, something gripped my heart, I was immediately filled with unexplainable joy. I didn’t know then what I know now, that what I felt was passion- a strong moving force. In my heart this was something I wanted to do for the rest of my life , even until I got old. I wanted to teach other women how to give birth. To give them an option rather than just be knocked out & be put to sleep or to have an elected cesarean. I wanted them to experience what I experienced and to be in control of their birth. To be with their husbands & to experience the birth of their child together. To bond as a family. I wanted to educate & empower the women to give birth in peace, joy and power.

Thus the beginning of my adventure. A journey that has lead me this far! I’ve been in so many ups & downs in my life and never did I stop to teach. I just continued to do it in season & out of season. I just love it! That same passion & joy that burned in my heart is still inside of me every time I teach. What a wonderful privilege indeed to be able to touch lives of women and their husbands and to give birth a meaning! To God be the glory and praise forever and ever! Thank you Jesus!
