i went for prayer meeting today...and i realized how glad i am to have made the decision to join the English Fellowship. today's session was so incredibly uplifting. for awhile, i've been filling my mind with dissatisfaction, letting it run wild with my imagination. stifling and depriving myself of God's peace and maybe even unknowingly disallowing God to work in my life by choosing to give in to my desires and complaints. i've been whining and wishing that i had this and that, wanting things that i know God doesn't want me to have because 'tis isn't the season.
but when Jean & JQ shared about how thankful they are for being where they are, for all that God has blessed them so much with; for all the little things, i felt a pang of guilt. i had an epiphany then - God has given me so much but i've been completely and intentionally blind to it. i feel so bad.. yet glad that i know where i went wrong. He's really given me a lot but i just don't cherish it. idiosyncrasies of being human huh?
JQ reminded us to live a life of thanks: thanks-living, which i thought was really quite inspirational. rather apt reminder for us when we start to complain yeah?
a life of thanksgiving. i want the world to see Jesus in me.
and i'm so thankful that the prayer group has been growing in numbers, really thank God for that. amazing. woohoo! and i've decided to be a worship leader for crusade. i'm excited. really am. yet i'm a bit fearful. but i shall have faith. coz i know that if my God's for me, who can be against me? i want to use my giftings and use them well man.
God, You're so good.
please don't let our eyes ever sway from the cross
and that we'll carry our cross for You
to be the salt & light for You.
Amen.
