On a lighter note, I am just overwhelmed with God's power and grace for what had transpired this weekend. All praises to Him for a very victorious St. Scho LSS # 17!!! Weeeeee!
I thank the Lord for giving me the chance to minister to His lambs.
Thank You for allowing me to serve You this weekend. I am but an instrument.
Miracles did happen.
To start off, I woke up worried because my throat hurt and I lost my voice (due to the incessant talking I did during the Parent-Teacher Conference in the preschool). How could I lead if I couldn't talk? I tried singing (yes, feel ko lang kumanta sa umaga! Haha!) but what came out was something like a frog's croak. I was starting to breakdown (especially with the unexpected turn of events care of my brother, Robby, which I choose not to elaborate on. Haha!), but I tried my best to shoo the negativity and have faith that it will come back and everything will be fine. On the way to the venue, I prayed and surrendered everything to God because I believe that when He appoints, He anoints; He would not let anything go wrong for sure. And lo and behold, the God of wonders just never falls short of that. When I was interceding for the lambs in the Vigil, my throat loosened up and I suddenly found myself singing. Not my normal singing voice but I was not croaking anymore. Tita Marge anointed and prayed over me and I knew I was restored. By the time I got to Kuniberta Hall, I was confident that the Lord would not disappoint. He never does, anyway! I was able to speak clearly during the Baptism and my throat did not hurt at all. Right after, I lost my voice again. If that's not a miracle, I do not know what that is anymore.
During the baptism, it was such a blessing to see the lambs surrender to God. Truly, lives were transformed by His healing power. It was such a beautiful and amazing sight. Lord, You are simply GREAT.
Thank You, Lord, for the gift of service, for this awesome chance to be of service to You. Service to God should never feel like a chore. Because if does, it loses its essence.
I remember the lines from a song -- "Give and it will come back to you..." Yes, when you give to the Lord, blessings come back to you a hundred, thousand, million fold.
Looking forward to more, Jesus!
Ciao!
