It is hard describing
the feelings that I have for moving to Hung Shui Kiu. [new companion will be Elder Chin]
First all the companions,
the transfer after we are no longer together they train. I think it's kind of
funny. I think it is also funny that I have moved all my transfers except
one.
but it was good seeing that
TKO was progressing. This last Sunday we had ward council, and we actually got
assignments to cooperate with ward members to fulfil assignments. I love TKO very much (probably because this is my childhood). It will be hard to leave,
but I know that God has a plan, that plan is perfect, and it will all be worth
it.
I also had the
weirdest nostalgic moment the other day. I was soccer finding haha I know its
weird, but I just looked at the yellow lights and realized that this part of my
life, playing on the street with some friends and just being in high school is
forever gone. I am getting transferred clear across the mission and I am leaving
my aunt which lives here. I am very sad which I won't lie about but I know God
has a plan for me, and I have done all that I have needed to do in this area.

Guess when I found out I
was moving I had 2 thoughts run through my head. One negative one positive. The
negative one is "well there needs to be a change in this area and I guess
that is me." The positive one is "I have done all I needed to do for
this area. I have worked hard and now am being moved because I need to help
another area." It is interesting noting the difference of feelings I have
when I recognize that God has given a person authority to help me to know where
to be and how to live so that I may be happy. I guess there are things I must
do in Hung Shui Kiu. I can honestly look back through every transfer and know
why I was there. There is a very significant instance to which I can point and
say "this is the biggest reason I am here" I can say that for
california, kowloon city, and now tseung kwan o. I know that I will also be
able to say that one day for hung shui kiu.
We always have the choice
to choose whether we will be positive or negative. It is harder to choose to be
happy but it will be worth it. I know that God will be with those who trust
him, who choose him. It is not easier but it is worth it. I have faith that
this new change is God's will. I know he lives and give us people we can trust
that will tell us his will. In the name of Jesus Christ, the master, amen.
