Great testimonies are borne out of Great trials
For the past week or so I was quite in a quandry as I was finding it difficult to find a job. I was getting quite discouraged over the whole job search. With other things happening in my life, you could say I was at a low point.
During Sunday service, I was telling God how tired I was, mentally and to a certain extent spiritually too. Even when I tried to bless others, I felt tired and weary over it, and I had an impression that my 'well' was getting dry and God was telling me to refresh in Him. Refresh.
When I got back from dinner on Sunday, I told myself I would not dwell in the dumps anymore. I was going back to the source of energy, of comfort, of rest. To revitalize.
I just chose all the songs that really brought glory to God, like 'Awesome God', 'King of Majesty' and so on. Then I just took my room as a stage for God, and I was singing to one audience, God (Thankfully all my housemates were in uni studying, I spared them the horror of listening to me sing, pray and also shout.scream..haha)
As I sang, I really felt my spirits lifted. And the soft voice of God whisper to me 'Let your job be a testament of my Grace'. I was so lifted! Truly!
With every great testimony that we hear, there is always the beginning, the climax (where there is no hope to be seen) and then the finale, where all ends well. Great testimonies are borne out of great trial.
Am I going through a great trial and testing? I guess I am. Yet will it be worth it! I pray that when this whole saga ends, I will have testimony that is worth it's weight in gold. So that others may be blessed when they hear my story.
Has my circumstance changed? Not one bit. Has my perspective changed. Definitely.
To believe that my Father in heaven has my best interest at heart.
