"HOME"

(finding the right path)

I can still remember those dark times in my life when I was crying out to God praying that He may send the right people that can accept me, understand, support and love me as who I am. Those prayers that didn't just last for one night but it extends up to months, years until I just gave up on that prayer.

For 8 years in the community, God sends me people here and there but I just know that they are still not the people that I'm looking for. When I decided to just abandon that prayer, little did I know that God has in store for me something I did not expect.

May 2019, quickly came by when I met this LG headed by Bro. Jab. When I first arrived, there was awkwardness at first and I thought to myself. "Maybe I will just attend here once or twice then I'll leave"

But as I observe and listen to them, I slowly realized that this is not just an ordinary LG. There is love. There is acceptance. The prayers of these brothers are so powerful that it drew me closer to God!

And as I spend my Sundays with these wonderful people, my love and concern for them grew that for me they are not just friends but REAL BROTHERS.

Yes, they still have flaws. Mistakes. Imperfections. But in this world full of darkness, uncertainties and confusion. I know that God is using them to be a beacon of light for me to go back. To make me realize that my God loves me, whatever dirt I have.

Indeed, God is faithful. He never gives up on your dreams, especially if that dream (no matter how small) will be for your good. I might gave up on that dream but God didn't.

I'm far from what God wants me to be but by His grace and with the support of these brothers. I know I will be alright.
