Untitled (just read it!)

Our Youth Pastor, this morning visit me and asked for something I can't say 'No'. He asked me to make some reports and entries for our church's bulletin board. He also asked me if I can be the Youth of the Month and fill up questions to be posted in our Church's Bulletin Board and I say 'Yes'. To see what are my answers in his questions, just read it below.

Age: 15 yrs old.

Spiritual Birthday: June 25 2005

Life Verse: “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things on the earth; for you are dead, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you will also appear with Him in glory” (Col 3:2-4).

Unforgettable Christian Experience: There’s so much I can’t forget about my Christian life. One is the 2004 Summer Camp in Florida, Pampanga where I first meet God. Though I’m still kid then and my mind is insufficient to absorb preaches, still the Holy Spirit of God knocked on my heart and I can’t explain how he breaks my rigid heart and turn it for following Him. Secondly, is my Baptismal Service on June 25, 2005 when I followed Water Baptism at Rainforest. And just this summer, God confronted my heart to turn again to him after I’ve chosen the wrong path He never told me to take. It was when I attended a Camp in Iba, Zambales. My motif of joining the camp is just ‘enjoyment’, celebrating the last days of the class with my friends, but I was wrong when the ambiance of God’s Holy Spirit hugged me. There I realized I’m long blinded by this WORLD—supposing it can offer me the best leisure, but when God showed me his grace, I’ve found a deeper joy and I was wrong to uncover it in this WORLD not on GOD. I still remember the song hitting my heart then, it goes like “Here in this darkness I lift my eyes on you your light comes shining through. Here in this silence I HEAR YOU CALL MY NAME AND I CRY OUT TO YOU! Jesus I Surrender, I draw nearer, I fall down. Master be my SAVIOR, be my SHELTER be my GOD!” and it made me cry out. And thirdly was the 2008 B.C. camp in Pampanga where God called to offer a whole time service for him. It was not my intention when I joined the camp, but God who planned it for me. There I remember, Ptr. Arroyo is calling for those who want to commit for a full time service, then, out of my curiosity, God made me cry, God made me walk to prayer, God made me follow the prayer and His Holy Spirit made me commit. That’s all by God’s grace.

What I’m praying for? Now, I’m praying for the right decision on what to choose after I graduated high school. Should I choose to first enter secular schooling or enter straight Bible School? Please pray for God’s providence on me while He is showing me the right choice. Also, please pray for the needs of my family, this church as a whole (including the workers and the members), my health in terms of spiritual, physical, emotional, and of coarse my LOVE LIFE! Haha!

What I will become after 5 years? I can’t tell yet what I will become after five years. If God will choose me to enter the Bible School, probably I’ve already graduated the degree and enjoy myself serving the Lord. But if the otherwise will happen, maybe I will became a graphic designer, web-designer, computer programmer or anything related to computer but still serving the Lord. Maybe I will be 2 inches taller, I will grow stout (hope not), I will fall in love but always paid a heartbreaks(0_0), I will go to Europe and travel all over the World. Construct a house fitted for my family, a preacher of God’s word, own a apple Laptop and a colored cell phone I’m always dreaming of. I want to see myself so professional! Haha. There’s nothing wrong about dreaming, anyway its unlimited! And stand independent though I will still visit my parents everyday. Haha! Ironic? Basta… There’s so much I want me to be after five years.
