I don’t usually write about religious stuff here, but today is a day I want to remember.

After feeling frustrated, lost and discouraged over the past month, I’m glad that today, I finally found a closure to another chapter of my life.

The past six months have been pretty amazing. I thank God for placing me in the company of loving and welcoming people. I will never forget their generosity.

Even as we part ways, the God whom we worship will be the same eternally, and we will always be building His kingdom together. 

I no longer wish comment on the spiritual teachings of the church I went to (past tense… yeah); they are entitled to their views, and so am I to mine. I don’t wish to discredit their faith just because of some disagreements we have. I am in no position to critique anyone’s faith; truly, only God knows our hearts. 

This entire episode has opened my eyes to many things: church leadership and management, the power of communication and new media, evangelism, doctrinal teachings, the concept of righteousness… I’m still struggling to understand all of these things, and I don’t think I will ever fully comprehend them. 

For now, rather than rushing to find another church, I want to take this break to rest and recharge in the word of God, and also to pray hard for Him to lead me in His plans. I honestly have no clue where I’ll end up at, but I know it will be good ◡̈
