5th day of Simbang Gabi. God is very much involved in the events of our lives and in the history of humankind. His 'immersion' had its climax at the Incarnation, but did not end with the Ascension. Jesus is still 'Immanuel,' 'God-with-us'
4th day of Simbang Gabi: On this fourth day of our Novena we are reminded that occasionally, God challenges people to trust Him even when He plans to do 'impossible things.'
3rd day of Simbang Gabi: We have an encouraging piece of counsel to one another during such rough times: 'Hawak lang ‘tol!' This phrase is the shorter version of what Filipinos say in difficult times: 'Pasasaan ba’t matatapos din ang lahat?'
