A New Life

After 2 days of driving (thanks dad!), with a night's stay at Salmon Arm, finally I am back in Calgary. I don't have the fervent excitement I had when I made my decision of moving back home, but I still look forward to what God has in store for me in my new chapter of life.

Nevertheless, I know things are not going to be easy. I have to get used to living with my family again; I have to reconnect with my friends in Calgary; I have to launch my career. And while I am doing all of the aforementioned, I still have to, and would like to, maintain all the relationships on the other side (Vancouver).

But hey, all my beloved ones, remember: "My (God's) grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." May the grace of the Lord be with you all always. :-)

On the Road ...

To this day four years ago, I left Calgary for Vancouver to pursue higher education in music.

Now, I am on the road again back to Calgary.

Four years pass in a blink of the eye. I am still who I am. However, there are many things of me that have changed. I am entering my next stage of life with a new self.

Thank God for all the things I have been through in Vancouver. Learning experience, working opportunities, friendships, mentorships, discipleships ... They are all gifts from God and I would always treasure them.

Miracle

For a moment I doubted if the sunset night was going to happen for fellowship because of the cloudy weather all day long.

But just before I headed out, the sky cleared and the sun reappeared.

So, even though it wasn't all bright and hot, we were still able to watch the sunset and play some games at the beach. Perhaps we wouldn't want to run around if it was crazily hot and stuffy. So, the event was all the more enjoyable under this moderate temperature.

God's grace is always timely. He makes things happen in just the right time. If He wasn't in control of all things, how can things fit so perfectly?

"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven." (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

Hallelujah!
