away.

i don't want to be away.

i asked GoD why do i have to be here? i mean what's my purpose in this place? am i tasked to win souls here? yesterday, i slept as early as 5 PM. well that's supposedly just a nap. i was surprised as soon as i was brought back to consciousness and checked the time on my phone, it's 6AM!!! that's a big time REST huh? well it's freaking cold in HK. not to mention my very low cold temperature tolerance. maybe that's sounds like i'm doing nothing here...

last month, i thought of flying to Dubai. three weeks ago, i thought of applying at Qatar Airways as flight attendant. two weeks ago, i considered another local airline. you see, i wanted to be away! it's not that i'm hiding from someone, nor soul-searching-kind-of-drama. i just need a job. i need to provide for my family. and you know what GoD said when i told Him that? "What? Did i hear it right? You're going to provide? Have you forgotten, I am GoD, the Great Provider." that echoed to my ear over and over again. i couldn't answer back, but found myself crying while uttering 'sorry' for like 20 times.

now that i'm away, i think GoD made me realize one thing: I DON'T WANT TO BE AWAY. i miss church. i miss fellowship. i miss everything that reminds me of GoD's greatness. i'm not saying that the presence of GoD is not in HK. it's just that i was in Philippines when i fell in love with Him, when i experienced His grace, where i heard Him calling my name. to serve Him. to serve His people. thank You for this privilege. thank You for allowing me to be here. i don't want to be away.
