As of now
As of now, this is the current situation in Manila, Philippines where I'm at.
Floodwaters are higher than people themselves. Some houses are badly submerged with only rooftops visible.
Waters reach up to seven feet high in some areas. 90% of Metro Manila is flooded, and -- thankfully -- I belong to the safe 10%. There are mothers with their children stranded on their roofs while waiting to be rescued. My heart goes out to those affected. Though I'm atheist, God chose the Philippines because He knows only the Filipinos could handle this tragedy with all their strength.
I salute all rescuers, nurses, doctors, and concerned citizens who are very mindful of their fellow Filipinos. The rain has been nonstop since yesterday (or was it two days ago, I'm not sure) but please pray for the Philippines.
