It was about 9:20pm last night. I was on my way home after my night class and I was heading I saw a familiar guy standing on the highway side. He is not after to ride a Jeep because it seems that he isolate himself from the crowd (those who will ride a Jeep.) Plus, that he seems to be there for a long period of time and he bears a sorrowful face. Its an unusual scenario so I concluded that maybe he runs out of money for transportation or perhaps heavier than that.
We're of the same College (Cebu Institute of Technology - University) but I am ahead by 1 year. I recognized him because we've been classmate in Engineering Orientation Subject for BS Mechanical Engineering Students in which all transferee and first year-students are required to load it.
We've been classmates but I am not that close to him. This is my primary reason why I just passed by him and keep walking but THERE is in me that made me uneasy and caused me to pause for many times.These moments, I am petitioning GOD that may HE send someone to talk to that guy, to know his problem and help if ever for I am already about 50 meters away from him. I just asked HIM to bless and lead him in the way.
Well, despite of my prayer, I can't proceed my tract without doing any action so I made up my mind to go back and approach him. "Bahala na", I told myself.
We're talking for a few minutes. I have learned that he have a quarrel with his mother and he have just broke up with his girlfriend. Also, I am right that he had no money for transportation.However, he's not planning to go home anyway. I told him the danger that awaits him if he will standby in that area for a long time and advice him to go home and face her mother. I offer him a money for transportation but he just decided to spend the night in his Uncle's house which is nearby, that is according to him.
The Lesson I learned through this experience of mine is "Somebody is out there waiting for you to touch his life." and "When the Holy Spirit is talking to you, listen very attentively!"
