Shekinah Gram’s story of waiting, searching, and eventually finding the One True Love that stays, is brought to life in a new music video – with a special performance by Lara Quigaman-Alcaraz.
Produced by Reverb Worship and directed by Timmy Yee, the “Pansumandali” music video is a bittersweet reflection on how past experiences may inform the way our parents raise and guide us. At the core of the story is a mother-daughter relationship (the mother portrayed by Lara Quigaman-Alcaraz, and the daughter portrayed by Patricia Chu), that starts out strained but is ultimately redeemed through humility, love, and compassion.
“Pansumandali,” the single, was written and recorded by Shekinah Gram. The chorus’ first line, “Sabi ni Mama,” has become the song’s hook, with fans of the song reportedly mistaking it as the title when they first encountered it.
Shekinah herself has a very close relationship with her mother, whose personal experiences of loss, heartbreak, and ultimately finding God inspired the story concept. When asked about a formative memory with her mother, Shekinah answers, “I cannot think of just one. It’s all of the moments spent together – the late night chats over tteokbokki, the spontaneous trips, the weekend window shopping adventures – that I consider to have an impact in my life.”
The faith her mother instilled in her is the same faith she has sowed in her song and in the music video. Shekinah leaves viewers with this encouragement: “I hope that wherever they are in the seasons of life, they will be reminded that there is One Love that does not change or falter. We will always be chosen by a good and loving Father.”
