I alone know this pain that I am going through,
My heart is being ripped into two.
For I am going away from my Call,
I know not what I need to do.
Its been a year since God called me,
A year in which I have learned so much
I can state and testify a thousand experiences,
Where my heart and life have been touched.
Our Lords grace, His mercies,
His Love has been keeping me.
In His awesome presence
Is where I want to be.
My life has been touched by so many,
And I don't know with whom to begin
I will treasure and honor each one
And Love them from deep within.
Edson and Mafrith are my idols,
Like them I always wanted to be.
Love, inspiration and encouragement they gave me
From them I learnt to be a true missionary.
Kuya Butch, my mentor, my brother,
With whom my life I have shared
He is this huge bubbly Teddy bear
Who, for everyone, genuinely cared.
Ate Chinka loves anything in Pink,
And also loves Winnie the Pooh.
She made me take my own decisions
And corrected me when she needed to.
A wonderful brother I found in Baptista,
From whom I learnt how to be calm and humble.
A shoulder I can anytime cry on
A brother who'll pick me up whenever I stumble.
Though it took some time to understand,
I always admired the hard working Stephanie.
She taught me to be patient
And yet she brought out the best in me.
Neil, who I know is the pillar
On whom someday all the ministries will stand.
His words are powerful and every song sounds amazing
When he holds the guitar in his hands.
Ate Kate whom God has filled with grace
Despite of all problems, her faith is still standing.
I have bonded with her pretty much
Even though I have not known her for long.
Abigail is the youngest of all
Who smiles and flashes her pearly white teeth.
She may seem to be a stern, serious person
But she is gentle as a baby beneath.
These are the ones whom I honor
And I give them all my thanks.
But there are many whom I have not mentioned here
Who in my life actually fill in the blanks.
They helped me get closer to God
And in my heart they will forever remain.
I pray to god that one day, like them,
I too will become a Missionary, Again.
Thank you Lord, for these Brothers and Sisters.
Thank you Lord, for the wonderful blessing.
Give me strength Oh! Lord I pray
For this piece of my heart is missing.
Thank you once again for taking your time to read this
and for all you have done.
Love you Always
God Bless
