The Calling
Wow! its been really long since I posted anything regarding my life... Oh well, have been really bz... couldn't find the time. Alot have happened in my life since the last I blogged. I guess i can say that this year has been really heartbreaking at some points, as well as really interesting, and at other times, its been really surprising in a good way. I've learnt a lot this year; lessons i'll never forget. Throughout my whole life, i think that 2006 has been the only year where so many changes have happened. One major change was, i graduated from college this year... and started working... oh man!! no more student life!! :( hehehe. Really miss my college life... Miss the life, the people, n mostly my CF (miss it like crazy). But overall, college has been a tremendous training ground for me emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Working life is very different. Alot more responsibilities and also alot more dissapointments... hehehe... but its all good.
Anyway, I juz got back from my Youth (G2) camp. It was awesome. Like always, i enjoy camps like crazee. But this camp had something different to offer. I recieved something really different from God. Approximately 9 - 10 years ago, i had a preacher (and many others throughout my high school years) prophecy over me saying that i'm called to the ministry. But lately, it seems as though God had been silent bout my calling n i thought that maybe i've lost my calling or something coz i'm already working n i have no idea which direction to go n i've not heard God mention anything about my calling lately. I always thought that my calling was for ministries like youth or music, and have been working towards that direction. At camp, i had few aims for my spiritual life. Firstly, i wanted to fall in love with Christ all over again, and apart from that, i also wanted God to speak bout my calling... mainly "what's my ministry" and "when will it start". So, as the pastor prayed for me, the first night at camp, i really felt like my love for God and his work had been renewed and refreshed. The second night was extraordinary. God answered both of my questions regarding my ministrty. He told me (through a prophecy) the exact time when my ministry would start, as well as what my ministry's gonna be. I'm not gonna mention those answers here. At first when i recieved these answers, i was a bit doubtful n confused coz i didnt think that I was qualified enough or experienced enough to handle the ministry HE had planned for me. But after much thinking and meditating, God reminded me of David when he was anointed to be King. He too was the least qualified and experienced for the job yet God chose him. There's this one phrase that my pastor told me many years ago, which has become a reality today. The phrase was, "God doesn't choose the equipped, he equips the chosen." So, yeah, am really grateful that God would still choose to use me despite all my imperfections. Thank you, Lord.
Besides that, after recieving my prophecy, i finally understand the reason why God didnt allow me to have certain things that I really wanted in my life, coz if i had those things (and some of them at the wrong time), it would have ruined HIS plan for me. Another thing that really amazed me at camp was when God spoke into the life of someone really special to me. Am overjoyed that she also took that step of faith. Don't worry bout anything, girl... Juz trust HIM n know that HIS plan is always GOOD n PERFECT. I'm very sure that HE's pleased with you. Juz remain being faithful to HIM in everything you do k? You'll see the results in the years to come. Take it easy k? love ya....
Well, other than that, there are still some areas in my life that are still in the 'grey'... But wats life without these areas rite? hehehe...
PS: Dear (u know who you are), i think that u'll make a great ________ (dun wanna mention your calling here), coz you definately have the heart for it!!
