last minute.

last minute packing my things and all. And as i was folding my clothes into the luggage, a little sigh was let out, " ah,... no more Zara, no more commercialism. " At least while in old Florence, Italy there was Zara and Forever 21. Being in a place that has not much commercialism would be a huge change, i believe a good one, and will strip me to the basic necessities of life.

even though anxiety creeps in now and then, a huge rest upon my heart, a peace from the Lord that reminds me that He is holding me, and He has everything under control. I was giving a student of mine an advice for school , to just give her best , and rest in God. She in return told me to remember to do the same, how timely, at times i even forget to take my own advice! How lovely when it is your student who reminds you to " remember to help the less fortunate especially the non Christians and introduce them to God's word while in the * " May my heart be focused on doing what i must as a daughter of a heavenly place.

I will dearly miss my beloved grandparents. Yesterday while having lunch with my uncle and aunty, aunty exclaimed " so you are going to be a tentmaker "... and i was like , yeah ( i had an idea that it was what Paul did, but i wasn't really acquainted to the term). A tentmaker is actually someone who goes to a foreign land , working in a job while focusing on missions, in a way supporting themselves financially to do God's work instead of being dependent upon the church. And Yes! That is exactly what i have set my heart to do :) In a way it makes me free to serve God as He wishes, not being a burden to anyone and is not tied down to any denominations, Oh how can the body of Christ be divided into denominations!

Somehow i know a lot of my Christian friends may be skeptical of me and stuff, but to me, honestly it matters little. I may not be the most perfect Christian, but i know my God is working in me. What is more important is what God wants, desires, and to obey. God will let His light shine through me and waiting upon Him, running this race of faith with perseverance would never be in vain.
