| | Lately, I've been feeling quite discontent. Guess I've been disillusioned with unrealistic expectations after graduation...sad to say, I fell prey to the American dream. Was hoping that my 2 master degrees will lead to financially stability but God had greater lessons for me to learn.
He's been asking me: Can you trust Me when you're currently making significantly less than your previous pre-grad school/secular employment life? Do you believe that I have a plan for you when I called you to this little church near your house (with so many struggles and issues)...and that your ministry location is not Asia, but San Francisco? Can you see that I'm developing your character by placing difficult ppl in your life?
Yes, that's what FAITH is all about...as a pastor friend puts it, it's Forsaking All, I Trust Him. It hasn't been easy, but there's nothing more exciting, more fulfilling, more meaningful in life than following Him. Like Job, I need to repent in ashes because I don't deserve anything...yes, Lord...I trust in You.
