I knew God had a purpose for me. I
heard the call from God in 2005. I dedicated my life into His hands not
knowing the "when, how, or where”, but the "who, what and why” was
crystal clear.
Who? It was for me.
What? Dedicate your life for full-time ministry.
Why? God said, “I need someone to go and tell them
about Jesus.”
I said, "Here I Am!"
Since then, God has been teaching, showing,
answering, leading, and growing me to learn the “hows” and “wheres”.
The
when was 1 year ago TODAY! One year ago today marked a new chapter in my life
and in our family’s life. Leaving the known to go into the unknown has
been a journey for sure.
As David declared, we also experienced the
same; "Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts
in Him!”
Definitely it has been a roller coaster ride
the past year and through it all God has been faithful. The words to the
song, Never Once is our testimony for the past year:
Standing on this mountaintop
Looking just how far we’ve come
Knowing that for every step
You were with us
Kneeling on this battle ground
Seeing just how much You’ve done
Knowing every victory
Was Your power in us
Scars and struggles on the way
But with joy our hearts can say
Yes, our hearts can say
Never once did we ever walk alone
Never once did You leave us on our own
You are faithful, God, You are faithful
Our desire is for others to encounter the love
of the heavenly Father, grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and power of
the Holy Spirit. Our prayer is that each person lives out his or her calling
for His glory and Kingdom purpose. Along that ride, our call is to be part of
His plan to pastor His church and help prepare it to be a beautiful bride for
His return.
We need and ask for your continued prayers,
encouragement, and support to do His will, His way! We are not perfect, still
growing, learning, and striving to please Him. Thanks to everyone for
blessing us in many ways over the past year! We thank God for you and
pray He continues to bless you!
Enjoying This Ride,
Pastor Cee, Sherin, Abigail, & Kayla
Isaiah 55:8-9
