112. 112. The truth behind on how we pray… “Wanted – Prayers That Matters”
Excerpt from the book "Thinking Aloud“ By BGen. Vicente Pangantihon.
113. 113. there was a story of a Filipino who died before his time. He was an upright
man; hence, his soul went to heaven. To his dismay St. Peter won’t let him in. He was
told to return to earth. His time is not yet due. He pleaded. He is officially dead on record.
Besides he has no body to return to. His mortal remains were cremated. The kindhearted
Peter noted his being a Filipino. Heavenly statistics showed that the Philippines had the
most number of citizens sent to the great beyond prematurely. The country is infested
with drug addicts and drunkards lurking in the shadows, petty thieves and snatchers who
would do their victims in at the sign of resistance, rolling coffins with undisciplined
drivers at the wheels, natural events made horrendously disastrous due to government
apathy and corruption, insurgency as a result of dysfunctions in society, stray bullets and
firecrackers in paganistic and hedonistic celebrations, etc.. The list seemed endless. The
case however is beyond Peter’s authority. He must consult the Lord.
114. 114. St. Peter called for an angel. “Show him around,” he said. “I will present his
case to the Lord” The angel led the Filipino by the arm saying, “I can read your thoughts.
I will answer all your questions even before you can open your mouth to ask.” From
where they are, the Filipino noted four (4) buildings a distance away. In answer to the
questions forming in his mind, the angel said, “These four (4) buildings were specifically
dedicated to the Philippines. No it’s not because the country is extra‐special to the Lord,
All countries are treated equally. It was noted however that in the last decade, the
Philippines became the most prayerful country. At a drop of a hat, Filipinos pray. It is in
these buildings where their prayers are recorded and acted upon.
115. 115. These four (4) buildings were specifically dedicated to the Philippines. At the
first building there was a flurry of activity. Host of angels were either flying or running in
or out of the building faster than anything the Filipino had ever seen. The traffic was so
dense it was a miracle the angels didn’t collide or bump against each other. The traffic at
the second building was very much lighter compared with the first. It was still heavy
nonetheless. There was practically very little activity in the third building. The angels
inside, were either, playing games or reading something to pass the time. Occasionally an
angel would arrive, submit his report and stay for awhile to bat the breeze. The fourth
building was literally asleep. Inside, the angels were sleeping in their desks or in any
available comfortable space. It was evident there had been no activity for sometime.
120. 120. At this instant St. Peter appeared. “So you are there,” he said. The Lord
considered your case. You can stay. Come I will show you your place.
“St. Peter, please ask the Lord to reconsider. I want to go back to earth,” the
Filipino implored.
Peter nodded in understanding. “My friend,” he said, “your presence on earth
will not make any difference. The Lord Himself came down to earth. You know
what they did to Him”
121. 121.
In utter humility the Filipino went down on his knees and bowed in prayer. “Your
will be done, O Lord! All praise, honor and glory be Yours forever and ever.”
When he lifted his head, he saw the fourth building suddenly come to life.
124. 124. Most of the candidate for licensure exam aim only to pass the grueling
exam and as a result if they got out of luck on that goal they will fail.

then you can expect success. Many reviewees have made a strong
decision on what they want. But the commitment to those goals is as
important as establishing them. It’s not enough to say “I want to
become a CRIMINOLOGIST”. You’ll need to say, “I want to become a
