It has been my heart's desire to go into the places and teach/preach the Good News...In fact, this is my lifetime dream. It's still fresh in my mind, when I dreamed of becoming a Missionary/Youth Pastor when I was young... Ohhh...It wasn't just a dream--It was a [covenant] I made with my Father (oooppss...I guess I need another entry for this)..=)
Without any plan of going out after the service, I just found myself hanging around with my ate's (It was supposed to be just the two of them, but plans do change...hehe) weee!
After having our stomach full, we found ourselves sipping in our cups of coffee (yeba!), sharing stories and experiences (a once in a blue moon thingy for the gurls)... hmm... why won't we do this more often??? The girls' talk/date /coffee session (that's how i call it...hehe) has turned out into a birthing of a [dream]! iluv dreams--& to dream (got another list for my book of dreams!)!!! This is not just a dream-- this is something deeper and bigger! A dream and a vision to see people's lives change--to go forth and reach out to them, bringing not the material things that one usually craves for, but something more than that---something [eternal], the "Gift" w/c was offered to us two thousand years ago. We'll bring [hope] to the hopeless, [love] for the unloved (through Him) and the [Message] that everyone needs to hear...
The Place
Kish Island...! Little did I know about the place, since I haven't been there yet. The only thing that comes in my mind whenever I hear this place, is that this is one of the exit points of people from DXB (i just dunno in other ME countries) who are waiting for their employment visa(s). And based from the stories of people who have gone there (and from the news as well), life is not that easy -- some stayed there for just a few days (good for them), some took a month, and others...more than they expect. Worst, many are waiting...in vain.=c Their hope/dream of having a better life has turned out into a hopeless situation,causing some to even end their lives. We can see how desperate these people are. They are in great need---the need for a Saviour, who has promised hope and a good future, and a life eternal (how amazing is that?)...
Enjoying our coffee, plans came up... We are to go in that place... and bring the [Message] to them... This is our calling...This is what we are commissioned to do... and nothing can stop us from fulfilling this dream that God has birthed in us... If not now...when?
With united hearts and one vision, we are now ready...
... to sacrifice what we have to see lives transformed because of Christ...
... to take a step of faith for God's glory...
... to take the flight and go forth into the field...
... to spread our wings & fly into greater heights...
This will not just remain a dream... This is the start of more flights for our missionary work...
Love unfailing
Overtaking my heart
You take me in,
Finding peace again.
Fear is lost in all you are.
and I would give the world
to tell Your story.
'Cause I know that You've called me.
I know that You've called me...
I've lost myself for good
within Your promise.
and I wont hide it... I wont hide it
Jesus,I believe in You
and I would go,
To the ends of the earth
To the ends of the earth
For You, alone are the son of God...
and all the world will see
that You are God...
that You are God...
now...I'm [conceiving]!
fully-loaded Friday! =)
*studying the Book of Acts has inspired and encouraged me more... Paul's Missionary Journey got me on this... haaayzzz...
