How do you know if God's telling you to GO!!!
There are many people that influenced my life, but I strongly believe that God introduced these three young people in my life for a certain reason and that certain reason is to GO!!!...
Jessica Salmon, a kind and gentle hearted young woman from Michigan, whom I encounter through facebook, does not only used words but uses action. She means it when she said that she wanted to be used for Christ. And yes, she uses her life only for Christ, leaving America apart from family, the people that she knows, and the language that she speaks, to a country on the other side of the pacific ocean only to serve God with all her heart. Why did God introduced her to me? I believe that she's an awesome example for me, to willingly surrender all of me to God and to GO!!!
Daniel Brobst, a young vigorous man, a bible worker, who left his family in Saint Louis, Missouri, to gain a better understanding of Christ. This young man, through 3ABN, found Christ and decided to follow his heart to serve God. Although his family is yet within the same belief, he pursued his faith to serve God, far from his home, away from the city to a small town in the Heartland of western Kansas. He had spent his money to attend Amazing Facts, to be filled with the love and the understanding of Christ just to be used in His ministry. Why did God introduced him to me? This young man, with the same age as I, is another example to show that I too can be used and be changed. And yes, with the knowledge of Christ, I am responsible to share it with others the way Daniel has done through Christ's example.
Marianela Osorio, in my opinion, is an ambitious young woman with an awesome intelligent and understanding that have also influenced my life. Leaving her comfort zone to be away from her family, to be tested and yet to test God and to have a closer relationship with Him. She chose to leave her friends after graduating with two degrees in business and biology to accept a job in a small town in Colorado. There, she attends a church of two members, managing two health care facilities, taught at a community college, and yet, has time to serve God in building His church there and with the future plan of prison ministry. Why did God introduced me to her? I strongly believe that God wanted to show His awesome grace for me through her life. I hate to be compared with a female, but I believe that her ambition surpasses mine, and if she can do it, I can too. And with God's grace, God, and God only, He can help to manage my time and strengthens me to serve Him.
I am filled with amazement of how God worked in miraculous ways. God has given me talents, knowledge and strength, yet, I've not used them to serve Him. These three young people showed me that God did not placed me in this world to do nothing, but to GO!!! To go, and serve Him with all of my heart.
To think about it, it is not my heart to serve Him, but it's His heart that He had given to me to serve Him. I just hope that through this simple blog entry, many of you can give your heart and be used for Christ. If He had touched your heart and have told you to go... You don't just sit there and do nothing... But GO!!!
Before I end this, I'd like to share a common verse that we all may know, a powerful verse that came straight from the mouth of Jesus. "...All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." - Matthew 28:18-20 KJV
Thank you guys for being an inspiration in my life.
