Hello Steemit this is my introduction post.
My username is @gracealone
My name is Lolita Miralles and I am 25 years of age. I was born in Guian Eastern Samar but presently living in Cambodia.
For 10 years I'd spent my life living in the orphanage. 8 years in Lipa City, Batangas Philippines and 2 years in Olongapo City, Philippines. I finished my college degree at Doane Baptist Seminary Iloilo City, Philippines for 5 years before going to Cambodia but during my 2nd year life in college, I decided to live independently and never gone back at the orphanage again.
Yes, I am an orphan just because I got literally lost in Manila that's why I'd been away from my family for 14 years but I don't have any regrets in my life why it all happened for I know God has a plan and a great purpose in my life. I always remember this verses in the Bible;
"All things work together for good to those who love God". Romans 8:28a
"For I know the plans I have for you; plans not to harm you but to give you a future and a hope". Jer.29:11
My new God-given family
In spite of all had happened, God blessed me a new family and a new life in Cambodia. So blessed to have this spiritual and godly family. They brought me to Cambodia to help them out in the ministry and became a bi-vocational missionary .
"Bi-vocational missionary" means working while doing the ministry as well in either for that person to support himself/herself because they don't have any support from other churches or people.

I've been living in Cambodia for almost 3 years now and God never left me all through out of what I am now.
I love travelling around Cambodia and through that I met Mrs. Annaliza @iambeloved at Think Big Cambodia who introduced this platform and also with the help of her daughter @marylizacaindoy thank you so much.
I look forward to writing here more in English to improve and expand my vocabulary. Your support and suggestions are very welcome! Upvote and follow me here and I will follow you back.
Thank you and God bless us all!
