When I was a teenager, I think I was around 14 y.o. was I on a camp for Christians teenagers and during this camp we had prayer and worship in the morning and in the evening. And one of those evenings someone prayed for me with words “you gonna be a prayer woman”. That line of words have during all my years been in the back of my head even those years when I didn’t wanna have anything to do with Christians or believe on God.
Few years later, I think it was in 2002 an other person prayed for me in an other situation and gave me those words “God gonna use you and your creative gifts to reach others”. That is also something I have been wondering about. How will God use my creative gifts to reach others? But I have to say, that after I came back to God and been climbing my latter to be who I am today. God started to show me how to use my creative gifts after 2007 until today. He is really using my creative and visual gift in the that when I pray for someone God most the time gives me a picture, a verse or just a line of words, that for me most the time it doesn’t mean much for me but I know that it means a lot for the person. I have received so much feedback of all the things God have given me to others. I know today, this is one of the gifts God have given me.
And few weeks ago (2016) when I was praying for a friend in my house church (cell-group) I received what I think is the prophetic gift. Which for me was both scary and wonderful! (Maybe this was an answer of what friends have telling my?) I started to dig to learn more about this. I shared it with two of my best Christian friends about what I felt and received and how I could found out more in the bible and how could I learn more about as a dispel and curious Christian? One of my friend she is in a bible-school in the states this year and her respond was easy, «I’ll send you a book about this» and she did. (Which I am reading now to learn more.) My other friend who also is in USA (living there right now) she said I’ll pray for you and ask God to show you more. And God has been answering my questions along since that day! Every time I asking God of guidance He is there and let me cry out in his presence and fill me with more love, grace and joy in my life.
He is there to fulfill what he started. He has a plan for my life and journey. He knows what he is doing. He has control! And I just want to learn more about what he has for me.
It is with Joy I am learning more about this.
It is by Grace I live.
It is by Love God makes my day.
It is by Patience I get through a hard or heavy day in life or that I still don’t have a job to go to.
It is by Patience from God I get through everything in life.
He has promise me to be here for every step I take and he is!
To received a gift from God and learn about how to use it is a journey it self! It takes time to understand and it takes time to understand how to use it and when. But it is with Joy! I am curious to learn more and I can only wait and see what more God has for me in this.
It is a journey!
