This night, I realized that where we are today are most often not only because of what we were able to do.
It is also because of other's prayers.
When my dad passed by my room to go to the balcony upstairs, I stalled him him a bit. I asked him to pray for me to be a Dean's Lister this semester. My grades for the second semester was looking really good(though i did not expect to get those kind of grades) and I was thinking that I could possibly become a Dean's Lister this semester.
So, I told my dad to hope and pray for me.
He said to me, "I've been praying for your success all my life."
And then I realized it all. My dad had been praying for me all along.
My successes had not only been through my effort, time, work and God's help. But it was also my dad's prayers that got me where I am today. Now I'm pretty sure my mom prays for me too.
It really hit me.
We pray a lot for other people, for God to intercede in their life and bless them. But somehow, I just really realized other people's prayers for you can alter your life and somehow make it better.
I should do that more often too.
Thank you to my mother and my father. :)
