Shine Brightly for Christ

Never let me go

Posted by: alphachristina on: April 18, 2011

Just like what Nicole said,we have been MIA in this blog but that doesn’t mean that we are going to abandon this site. Nicole moved to Virginia to pursue her Masters degree (2728 miles away from home) and I moved to Dubai,UAE  to pursue my career as a flight attendant (8330 miles away from home). We are going through a major turning point in our lives where our faith is being tested at the same time. Back at home, we have a home church, we have our Christian friends, we go to bible study every week and we have the comfort of our family. But being place in a new environment where we don’t have all of those I previously mentioned is definitely a challenge. A struggle in itself.

Not only do we have to fight temptations and sins but also all the things that come in between. The feeling of homesickness, adjusting, loneliness, stress and so much more. It is incredibly hard and painful at times. That I sometimes question myself if this is even worth it. But I know that the Lord put me here for a reason. He definitely knows what He is doing.

Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. . -James 1:12

The Lord is faithful and I know that He will never ever let me go of His sight no matter where I go. Even if it is at the farthest end of the world, He will always be there.

And that I could hold on to the truth that, “My flesh and my heart may fail,but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. -Psalm 73:26″

Please keep me and Nicole in your prayers as we need it more than before.
