Bettinna Carlos

Before March ended, Betinna, together with her husband Mikki Eduardo, their daughter Gummy, and their househelp, yatch Maps Jongaya packed up their belongings to live in the coastal province north of Manila.

Transferring to La Union meant Bettinna and her family had to let go of the lifestyle and comforts they've been used to and figure out new ways of doing even the mundane tasks.

She admitted that uprooting from their city life was a challenge but she eventually came to appreciate where they are right now.

“A month living here today and LUvin it.

“I know a lot of us never imagined we'd be where we are today. I did not expect I'd already be living in the province this soon.

"Marrying @mikki.e.eduardo meant being ready to leave the city to move to LU EVENTUALLY like tail end of this year, nearing moving into our home (di ko akalaing ganito kaaga besh! hahaha) But we really are not in control! Neither over circumstances nor time. The Lord is.”

While Bettinna might not have fully prepared for this big move, she is grateful for a good life with her family and under the guidance of the Lord.

“It was an unexpected almost abrupt move. Almost Exodus-like when we go back to that time we decided to pack up and leave. It was also uncomfortable and challenging the first weeks- beyond the geographical and physical move, there were emotional aspects to it too.

"It was a month of dark valleys and mountain tops (and I'm sure many more to come-but as long as I'm with you my Love and the Lord with us, yakang yaka kahit ano, ano?).

“But the Lord has been generous in supplying us His strength and faithful to carry us through everything. Thank you Lord. Thank you for enabling me not just to endure, but eventually to enjoy and now embrace where You planted us.

"Thank you for my husband. Thank you Love. I praise God for your wisdom. Lets grow deeper and stronger here, yes?”
