It has been 2 weeks that I have been home. It has not been easy in the beginning but now I am beginning to adjust with my family and understand them more. I have realized that I don't know them that much being away from them for 11 long years. Yes, I have gone home for a vacation multiple times but I didn't have a lot of time to build strong relationships with them. I am grateful for this time that I get to know them more and build a stronger relationship with them. It is truly a blessing to be in the arms of your family. In this world, you can have a lot of money and have the job of your dreams but all of these can turn their back on you. But our families will always be there for us. In good times and bad times, they will never give up on us. I am blessed that we are all together and that we are complete although we miss Papa of course!

For the past 2 weeks, I have still been wondering what would I really do here. Family is not a question. However, what else? Work? Business? School? I don't have a 100% clue yet. I believe in taking one step at a time, one day at a time. Lately, God has opened a door for me to volunteer at a Youth Camp. I was kind of hesitant to join at first since I don't know anybody there. But when I attended the orientation last week, I felt at peace and I truly enjoyed their company. So I look forward to serve in the next couple of days. I have also met with my high school classmate who currently ministers to the street children. I will also see if God calls me there.

I am grateful that slowly, God opened doors for me and I pray that my time here as He will would be victorious for God's name and glory.

Please pray for me. Thank you!

It is 1:38 am and I just put away my stuff to continue packing tomorrow. Two more days and I am leaving. It hasn't hit me yet but I admit it does scare me because I really don't know what to expect. I have been packing and clearing up my room for the past week. I am feeling sickly and tired but God's grace carries me through. For the past few days I have been feeling so loved by so many friends who came to spend time with me, showered me with love and gave me gifts. I really feel so blessed and that truly encourages me and strengthens me. I am very grateful! There is still so much more to do but right after this, I will Zzzzz and rest. Good night and God bless you all!
