Sa bahay ng aking Ama ay maraming silid. Kung hindi ito totoo, sasabihin ko ba sa inyong pupunta ako roon upang ipaghanda ko kayo ng inyong matitirhan? At kapag naipaghanda ko na kayo ng matitirhan, ako’y babalik at isasama ko kayo upang kayo’y makapiling ko kung saan ako naroroon.

Juan 14:2–3

Malapit sa tourist attractions. Safe parking space. 24/7 security guard. Spacious and sanitized interiors. Strong internet connection. A/C units in all the rooms. These are just some of the amenities we must look for when choosing a bed and breakfast or transient house. And for fur parents, kung pet-friendly, the better!

After the lockdowns of 2020, dumarami na naman ang mga nagbabakasyon. Isa sa choices ng accommodations are the B&Bs and transient houses. Most of them are more spacious and way cheaper than hotel rooms. ‘Yun nga lang, kailangang basahing mabuti ang amenities and reviews dahil hindi lahat ay papasa sa panlasa mo. Minus points agad kapag maalikabok, maraming insekto, or bedsheets and towels are not freshly washed. At kung ikaw naman ang bed and breakfast host, kailangang i-check mong mabuti na walang maipipintas ang guests sa property mo.

Pero alam ba ninyo kung sino ang may hinahandang napakaganda at napakalinis na tirahan para sa atin? Si Jesus! As He said, “I go to prepare a place for you.”

Wow! May nakahandang tirahan para sa atin si Lord! Isn’t it mind blowing? And the best part is, when the time comes na doon na tayo titira, kasama natin ang ating Host — the Sovereign Father! It will definitely be the best staycation ever!
