Life as a bachelor has a lot of advantages when you are in the ministry. Compared to a family man, it is easier for me to go wherever and whenever my service as a minister is needed. But behind those advantages is the feeling of emptiness that somehow says "I need a companion". There are times when I can't find someone to share my burdens with. I can't share it to anyone in my pastorate neither to my loved ones because I know they look high on me. I am afraid I might disappoint them if they see my weakness. My girlfriend has been away and out of the country for quiet a long time now. I long for her company and for the time when I could call her and share my burdens with her. However, I still believe that God sets a right time for everything. I just have to wait. For now, I might feel empty because I don't have a partner in my ministry, but am I alone? No! My Big Boss is behind me!
