The Divine Image of the Holy Mother@ SDMC- My story

Everyone was talking about the divine image of the Holy Mother at the Subang Medical Centre..everyone was talking about the awesome images. Even the main stream papers had some up with some interesting reports.I thought why not have a look?? Monday morning, 11 Nov ,around 11.20a,m,, I was there. No need to ask where the sighting was located. As I entered the road leading to the Medical Centre, there was an unusual congestion. Four members of the Rela  civil corp team were directing the traffic.  I saw scores of people crossing the road , a few stood at the opposite side zooming their camera upwards...

This must be it..I told myself. I was lucky to find a parking space and soon joined the rest at the scene. Everyone were looking upwards...I could not see anything...there..there..up there...a young man pointed...I looked up...there was indeed a white image ..more like a splash of white paint..but that's not the image that  was circulating ...I looked enquiring at the people who had gathered there....it is the glare of the sun, they told me..the best time to come is at 5.00p.m., at that time the image glows....I took a few snaps and  left. for my appointment down town, resolving to return later.

Around 2.45p.m., I received an excited call from my friend Isidore...come now, come now...the image is glowing..you can  actually see her blue mantle clearly glowing ...Remembering the white paint like splash on the window pane . I saw in the morning, .I answered..really??!! Marie, Marie...she was insistent...it is true...really. There are a lot of parishioners here now...and Fr. R is kneeling and praying at the scene...we are all here...

An excited call like that could not fail  to spur any  sceptical person  into action...so I threw what I was doing and made my way down to Subang Medical Centre...You guys know what Kuala Lumpur is like ,on a  working day..I fought my way out of traffic  and managed to reach there around 3.30p.m. My friend was right, there were indeed quite a crowd there and more were seen hurrying across the road..some were even running. By now...I was all excited myself and looked around for a parking...gosh! the double parking!! Finally I decided to park a little further away...I was lucky, there was a stretch of empty land in front of some resident houses and  there was a vacant spot among the neatly parked cars.

At the Scene

Like the rest, I hurried across the road...a man honked at me..Right after I crossed the road, I looked at the window pane where the image was...true enough..I could see the blue mantle clearly..but it was no longer glowing....I gazed at the image..and I asked "Is it really you Holy Mother. Have you come to us with a message?" I mingled with the crowd. At times like this, faith speaks and you get to hear some marvellous words of faith...and of course some sceptical ones as well...A man holding his down syndrome son by the hand, pointed to the image and asked him" Do you see Mama Mary??" A group of ladies were discussing the image..."it is not only about the image..we should all gather together to pray and asked her why she had come...maybe there is some injustice...I asked some ladies...what their feelings were witnessing this phenomenal happening...goose bumps...you know..wanting to pray and we prayed.  A gentleman who had been coming to the scene , since the first day of the occurance, described it as...."aiyoh...so really"...no words could explain the feeling...there was this awe struck  look on his face....the look in his eyes..spoke volumes.. All around me people were praying..seriously praying. 

Some ladies were lighting candles ...there were two candle containers..filled with lighted candles..Truly we have a shrine... a religious site right here at Subang Medical Centre. 

at 11.20a.m.

At 3.40p.m. 

Some were on their phones...what they say is really true...I am not baffling..come and see . Of course the scene had also turned into a photography  paradise...People using all sorts of cameras could be seen snapping away....Some  like YT lamented that their camera do not have have long distance zooming device.needed at moments like this..the image was just too far up.. for clear shots.

I took the occasion to check with the guard...how long has this been going on?? Three days, he said..no one was certain..who actually saw it first. Whatever it was..the crowd had been swelling and the hospital management had put up a sign...stating that while they respected the need of the faithful to pray , they should be mindful of the need of patients who were at the hospital to recuperate from their illnesses. But then daily prayers by  multitudes such as these could  only auger well for the hospital. This is as good as blessing the grounds,,,and hospitals do require optimum  healing grace and that could only come from the Divine and fervent prayers. 

As I left the scene...I noticed construction workers...making the sign of the cross, their hands  in prayer. More people were coming in...

It is very much a matter of personal faith..what you believe in ..remember it is faith that speaks in such a phenomena and Faith said the Lord, move mountains.
