GOING BACK HOME

Whenever I am at the airport , there's always this feeling that I really can't explain, it may be thrill of excitement, sadness or a little bit of jealousy (?). Excitement maybe because those people at  the airport have one thing in common at that time is that they will be with their family in just few hours , sadness because I'm going to missed the person I am sending off, a little bit of jealousy yes I admit because I want also to go home and be with my family.

Going back home is always been a dream come true especially  to us OFW,  from the moment we received approval from our annual leave we started to look forward on that day, we even cross out the months and days on the calendar  because of our excitement, we started buying something for our families and friends and started planning out for our month long activities.

Home is where our heart is, it is the place where in we find security and comfort, free from any worries of this world, from the pressure and stress of everyday work, from any problem and for everything that takes away our peace but even the what we so called home does not give us full security of contentment and peaceful life, because our home is not here on earth its just temporal and it will soon passed but there is one HOME that is waiting for us and it will be our permanent home and that is in heaven wherein Jesus himself prepared the place for us. Be ready to get home because our Father is waiting for us with an open arms.

In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you (John 14:2)
