My travel here in the States had been quite a blessing, with so many wonderful surprises. Right when the SFC conference was about to finish, someone approached me and asks if I am Gelo, only to find out that she was Aunt, who lasts saw me when I was still 3 years old. Then here in LA, I was able to meet my uncle, whom I haven’t seen for 15 years already. I was also blessed to have reunions with my batchmates in FTPW training. We had a good updating and we were joking around how we are growing old because before, we used to talk late at night and now we sleep early and talk early in the morning instead. So yes, we did had a sharing around 5 am in the morning. That training was 9 years ago and here we are, one brother is married and the other is now engaged. So we took a photo, and put a sign there, “the married, the engaged and the single”
God is good, I am affirmed once more that when we follow Gods way, we build lasting relationships that goes beyond assignments and service in the community. There are things that lasts… family, friendship, brotherhood, sisterhood. Godly friends gives hope and joy.
Grant us the grace O Lord always Godly friends. Amen.
