And then after I came back, we managed to bring Sh out with her kids to give some candy packs as a mini outreach program. It was a good experience for them. And though she didn’t really ease into it, she was willing to give it another go, so another go we will ! Praise God for that !
January came and went. In between were episodes of dealing with my girl being sick, and throwing tantrums etc. It would seem that this month has been fixed on that... 
Not much development in ministry, no news on the extension of stay. I mean, we do meet with the ladies like Sh and Qu etc, and sometimes a half day can go by just talking and encouraging them etc, but its not heading towards a church plant. At best it would be pastoral visits. I don’t it as a bad thing, God is God, I am not, but I have to keep in mind I have a very specific goal of planting a church, and if this continues without any change, there ain’t gonna be a church etc...
Still we thank God, because we know lives were touched, for the better. To others it was a wake up call, I don’t know exactly what God has in mind, all I can do is keep doing what I am doing and trust that He has everything in His plan.

Last couple of days had been difficult. The little girls sick and constantly needing attention. Doesn’t want to take medicine and makes such a big fuss about it that both of us are going crazy..
Thought that something good might come out of yesterday. Yesterday morning, I felt to go online and check who was on Facebook messenger. And hey, one of the guys who’s been evasive was there. So tried and texted him, and apparently he was free and had the day off. I asked if he’d wanna meet and he said yes, we put it down as 330pm at macdonalds. After that I was like “hey, expect something great today !” Claiming it!
230pm, sent him a reminder text, no reply. Left the house at 3pm and got to Macdonalds at 320pm. He wasn’t there. Went into Macdonalds to get a drink and discovered that everything wasn’t working, no soft drinks, no coffee, only canned drinks or bottled water.... So I left and texted him to meet at another place. Called him a couple of times, nothing got thru. Gave him the benefit of doubt, again. Stayed around in that area, dropped off a small gift for someone else... An hour passed, suddenly he replied to the previous text that he as busy helping his neighbor (ya... right....) So I asked if he was still intending on coming, and he said “Yes I’m on my way to check on my taxes for home then I will be right back”
WHAT ?!
Texted him again, no reply. Waited another 30mins plus, no reply and not picking up the phone
BYEBYE
what a waste of time and fuel.
Well, I still believe God is God. He is the planner and He alone knows the full picture of all that is going on. Maybe His plan was more of the small gift to that other guy, maybe it was a stab to this guy that he needs to wake up, maybe it was His way of getting me out and getting my mind of certain things. After all, what happened with this guy, all that wasted waiting, is what happens to all the guys here, sad to say...
Nonetheless, GOD IS GOOD ! And though I know not what really went on behind all the things that happened yesterday, I know because my God is Good, it was a Good Day !
Oh ! And my packages came ! My new glasses, my oil cleanser, innisfree pore mask and collagen sleep pack.
GOOD THINGS !

Such a good reminder that it's not about what we've become or have ever done, but a daily question of "are we doing the Father's will?" Right after He talks about the wise and foolish builders. He's basically telling us if we live our lives not doing His Will, it's gonna be a house that's gonna crash, and a great crash at that. Let's live our lives Let's do the Fathers Will Let's build that house on the rock

Man its been awhile ! Almost a quart of a year ! Can’t believe its been that long...
Well, a whole bunch of stuffs happened, both good and bad, as it is with the life of everyone else, here’s a sum of events..
For the rest of October and November, we been trying to pick up the ‘pieces’ and carry on with the bible study and Sunday meetings. The men, not much of a surprise, were dropping out, maybe because the 2 prettiest girls they’ve ever met had left :) Thank God for the 2 remaining men that were more genuine in their relationship with God, though bible study did not resume (yet) but they would at least be available to join us time to time on Sundays.
2 of the ladies were ok, things remained the same with them for the Wednesday meetings and bible studies. However, one of the ladies that we were hopeful for seldom joined us on Sundays...
We also took a road trip down to the beach during the Thanksgiving holidays. Most people had left and with sorts of activities, so what better time to take a break ourselves right ? Which brings me to a God Praise moment ! Our car survived the trip ! The white cockroach lasted the whole trip without any issues at all, thats 8+ hours on the road. Really wished we had been able to bring the girls back then. We were making plans to go, but I think the girls didn't want to risk it, didn’t want to make me go thru all that driving (not sure if they really thought that way tho, being considerate for me ? dunno la) and thought there wasn’t much to see anyways, which was pretty accurate... But my daughter loved playing on the sand, so that was more than enough for me :)
Towards the end of November, things got real hectic trying to find a new place to move to. Issues everywhere ! Settling the final bill for the current apartments, disputing the outrageous hospital charges for my daughter (they tried to bill me almost USD 1,500 for using the emergency room, and all we did was mostly wait. Just another incident to tell me that hospitals and doctors aren't about bringing healing and recovery, they’re only interested in your money....) Moving to a new mobile network provider and trying to keep the old number, making wrong payments and trying to work out refunds etc (THANK GOD it all went through) etc etc 
December came, the new apartment got sorted out, finally, no thanks to bad admin staff who was rarely there.... Started moving stuff and cleaning out the old apartment before they suddenly throw even more extra charges on me... Then after a couple of days in the new apartment, I received a text and call from my brother back home. My grandma had passed away and returned to the Lord. After a day or two, praise God, leadership back home decided to allow and pay for me to fly back. I had to leave my wife and daughter tho, but we were already prepared for such scenario.
The days back home went by fast. Had some time to go looking for stuff to bring back to the US. Thursday night came, the church peeps came, including the girls, but as usual, they weren’t much for talking, to me at least haha :P Did like eulogies and challenged everyone to think about their lives and Christ :) haha. On Friday, coincidentally, my grandma’s date of cremation was my birthday, and I really thank the few that remembered and wished me. I had hoped that the one’s I spent the last 1 year with would have said something as well, it would have kinda felt like I’d mean more than just a casual acquaintance, but oh well, maybe they felt that it was weird being my grandma’s funeral, or maybe they just never remembered. Whatever the reason is, this is why we should always place our hope in Jesus, and not humans hahaha :) Nonetheless, I still love them very much, they are so dear to me (faster find a guy and get married la). Even as I am writing this post, I am already looking up and trying homemade kaya recipes, I had wanted to make some and give them next time when we all return home.
