After I graduated from college, i took my review classes for the Board Exam at a Review School near UST. It was during this time that I became really close with God. I practically think of Him every minute and every second of the day wherever I am. I do not fail to attend the weekly masses. I also religiously attend a novena every Thursday at UST church.
It was also during this time when I felt I had this calling to serve Him fully. There was this voice encouraging me to become one of His servants as Sister. I think and pray about it. I seek His guidance. I did not actually come to a point of filing an application for i know He knows what are my desires at the time. I'd wanted to help my family in any way I can esp. in financial matter.
My barkada and friends were all left in astonishment when they learned about this story of mine. Maybe, they cannot just imagine me as being silent and tame. ( i was the leader of all 'loudness' in our barkada then). As for me, i continued to pray to Him to lead me wherever He wants me to be.
It turned out, He wants me to be here in Dubai. :-)
This song captures the current desire of my heart:
LORD I OFFER MY LIFE
Lord I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord i offer you my life
