Five Years Later and

I remember writing down in one of the post how I have been longing to go for Sydney for my grad school. Going back to Jakarta from Beijing on 2016, I know I am just on transit mode. Just like many other fresh grads, settling back home after years abroad has never been easy, we will find many different reason to escape and find some alternatives.

Long story short I did not go for my grad school on 2016, there are days when my close friends would ask me "When are you leaving to Sydney?" which made my reverse culture shock worsen and of course I played the blame game and compare my life to others who can get the direct golden ticket to grad school, "But why not me, Lord? Am I not good enough?"

For the past 3 years settling down in Jakarta, little that I know that He has orchestrated something on the backstage. Two month ago, I am favoured to actually receive the opportunity to fly to Sydney and work there for a month time. I remembered during my ferry trip to Watson's bay - I am just amazed how unlikely and amazing His way is. Not because "I finally get to step my feet in Sydney" but rather on the process, purification, and pruning He has been working in my life. I know I never deserve this favour.

Here are glimpse of the favours, it took me five years to understand the reason why He did not allow to go from the first place.
