Ang aking
karanasan
Nung
nakaraang linggo, pumunta kami sa isang barangay para magbahagi ng Magandang
Balita at mag-encourage sa mga mananampalataya. Ang paglalakad ay mahirap pero
ako’y nasisiyahan hanggang sa punto na kami ay naligaw at hindi na naming alam
kung anong daan ang aming tatahakin. Naisip ko na bumalik nalang ng camp site pero
ang Panginoon ay nangusap sa aking puso at ako ay napaalalahanan na hindi Nya ipinangako sa mga taong pumiling
sumunod sa kanya ang madaling daan sa halip sinabi niya na asahan na ito’y
magkakaroon ng pag-uusig at pagkabigo. At ako’y
nagpatuloy sa paglalakad kasama ang aking groupo at nakarating din kami
sa aming distinasyon .Nakita ko kung paano ang Diyos kumikilos kahit sa konting
tao na nadoon.
TRANSLATION
“I
consider my life worth nothing to me if only I may finish the race and complete
the task the Lord Jesus has given me -the task of testifying to the Gospel of
God’s grace.” Acts 20:24
We
went out to the community this weekend to share the Gospel and encourage
believers. The hike was tough but I enjoyed it until we got lost and had no
idea which path to take. I thought of just going back to the camp but the Lord
spoke into my heart and I was reminded that He did not promise an easy road to
those who obey Him rather, He told them to expect a jungle filled with danger (persecutions & probably frustrations). So I continued to walk with the team and reached
our destination and saw how God is at work even in the very few people that we
found there.
