wherever the wind takes me...


(photo: a memie of my thenlife at faraway land...)

"
a seed planted. nurtured for growth, to bear fruit and be planted again...

a wave tossed in the ocean, set out in the world..."

call me idealistic, but i believe in a Maker Who crafts a grand scheme for everyone Who believes in Him...


things we do on a daily basis are tiny steps into that bigger picture. no matter how mundane it may seem. decisions we make can cause drastic changes into our being. it takes a whole lot of courage to succumb our self-made plans to Someone we do not see... but it feels far better to know that there's Someone bigger ahead of us, willing to prepare our paths, IF ONLY, we are willing to let Him...

i'd like to believe that God has placed me here for a purpose. (and no, i'm not gonna backtrack into my life. i might bore you to sleep...). Funny how, in retrospect, i see the link of one life experience into another...

Why I didn't die of dengue when I was eleven. Why He allowed me to study in that university, finishing off a four year-course in Child Development. Why He gave my parents the go-signal for me to set off to faraway land to work [so faaarrr from home]... and finally, Why He gave me peace in resigning from there only to find out an almost similar "scenario"...

...was because He intended me to work in the same field, but this time "closer" to home with a more directed purpose... reaching out to the marginalized. dealing with their holistic growth. I always tried to seek for that missing piece in everything i did the past two years. God planted that desire in my heart. And it can't be put out... it's exciting to know that kids learn more about their Maker and build a personal relationship with Him... To acknowledge that they need God and that they're nothing without Him. Seeing them grow up with a nurtured bond with Him gives much more meaning to the holistic growth we opt to achieve.

[As Curriculum Specialist] I know that I was given a task so big, but I have God Who would help me through. I am truly overwhelmed with my new role and responsibility. I even thought i was inept for this new post... but i was shaken by the fact that I was prepared for this and that I am not alone. My Maker is with me every step of the way.

The life i live now is not a spurt, out of the blue. It was carefully crafted, a plan to prosper me and not harm me. I wasn't brought here, tossed by the wind... I was planted by God's beautiful hands to pursue His plan and to bear fruit...
