After uth service last friday, some stuff happened, and i was faced with a dilemma - to serve or not to serve. It made me really confused. Was i doing all these for the right purpose? Was i doing it for men, and not for God? I kept questioning myself about the reality and truth of this matter. But i really prayed for His guidance to make the right decision in the ministry. Was reading the daily bread yesterday, and this portion of the passage really spoke to me. It says: "We can run what appears to be a good race by doing good things for others and obeying lots of rules. But when we arrive at the final checkpoint—heaven—and haven't made sure our name is recorded in the Lamb's Book of Life by putting our faith in Jesus as our Savior, we're disqualified to enter." Was i just going what seemed good? I thank you, Lord, for showing me the way today. I knew that if it was Your will for me to serve in the ministry, then I would. And you provided me that direction. Everything is cleared up now. I am so grateful for Your paths always. I thank you for the way you have closed doors and yet opened so many more. Help me to remember always that its Your will, not mine, Lord.
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. —Acts 4:12
