i signed up to volunteer for Kids' church yesterday. there were no doubts although i paused a bit to ask if this was God and all i got was a go-signal. it filled my heart with joy as i went home walking to hardin from the film center.

divine set-ups and arrangements. i've learned not to be a smart aleck with God. "He knows best" has always been a cliche for me but i guess this time, He has shown Himself to be faithful.

movies one can always search and look for the endings to know if it's a happy or sad one but life with Jesus is one different thing. it's ALL by faith and as Christians we are called to a life that is lived by faith and not by sight.

trusting Him in the midst of the unknown, uncertainty and nothing to see ahead of me.

"trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. in all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." - proverbs 3:5-6

i keep asking God why it feels so different to be back here. it's as if i'm learning the ropes all over again. i guess it's the acceptance part. that i am here and inspite of the homesickness (at times) i am slowly accepting the fact that my place is here today. wishing for the past and being back in cebu will rob me of the joy and the blessings that are only available here. :-) God's blessings are tied to being at the right place at the right time doing the right thing.
