Kuya Forever ng Ate ko,
Firstly, I hope I got that right, that you're my kuya because you're older than me. But if you're not you'd still be my kuya coz my sister is older than me, although that would be really weird.
So, hello to you! I am excited to meet you :) Last January, I sent Ate Khukay my faith goals for the year, and at the back of mind I was thinking, when will I be able to share my faith goals to my sister's boyfriend? I am excited, not just to meet you, but to share my faith goals with you, to pray with you and to ask for advice when I'll be having my own share of boy dramas.
You are one blessed man, you know that? God must have favored you a lot for giving you such wonderful creation, that is my sister. She is a priced possession, and she deserves nothing but the best :) I know you'll never intend to hurt or make her cry because you are a man of God and my mom and dad will always be at peace knowing that their daughter is in good hands.
I'm sure you've seen her worship, ganda niya pag-nag worship siya diba? BOOOM! One thing I know, she worships like that not to perform or just to lead the congregation into doing it, all the more not to impress you, but she worships because that's what her life is all about - a life of worship, surrendered fully to God. And I am secure and confident that when she comes to know you, she will not stop her worship and be fully focused to you, but she will all the more grow deeper in the kind of worship she has right now.
Lastly, I would like to say thank you - for guarding your heart, for waiting for God's timing, for praying for her, for protecting her and for just allowing her to grow and flourish in God. Thank you even for being obedient to God. For allowing Him to correct you as He molded you into His likeness. Thank you, because you will be used as a reminder for me that there is someone out there who is waiting for me too :)
I love you, kuya! see you soon :)
Your sister-in-law,
Arla
