The past few weeks has been a mix emotion time for me. Having a ridiculously blessed year in 2008, I know this year will be far greater but what? how? Stepping into this year, the feeling in me is as if I were stepping into the unknown. With prophecies in 2007 directing me for 2008, this year, no prophecies have been given to me last year on the directions I should take this year. All I can do is pray and seek for more of His presence and power to manifest through my life and just hope that I don't screw it up.
As you might have already known, 'the little darling' is very dear to my heart. But concern soon turned to worries and it started to eat up my faith. Knowing that her life wasn't going all that well, I searched for an answer and solution to change her and her situation. Failing and failing in helping her and teaching her good values, I kept on rising up again to handle the situation. Seeing the devil heading towards victory, I thought I could fight the devil and overpower him.
I then had dream, a dream that reminded me of a similar dream I had a year back when the youth ministry just started. The dream goes like this........
In the dream, I was walking in my secondary school. I then saw a mysterious looking old lady with a hunched back and a walking stick in her hand staring weirdly at me. I then walked up the stairs heading to my classroom when I saw a friend that was close to me during my secondary schooling years being attacked by a werewolf sort of creature. I then took out something like a sword-like weapon to fight it. In the midst of fighting it the werewolf's attention turned towards me and it overpowered me to the ground and stabbed me in the guts. I started to bleed and was dying when I then woke up from the dream. But before waking up from the dream, a thought flashed across my mind that the mysterious old lady was the actually the werewolf.
I then remembered the meaning of this dream when I first got it from God. I already had the meaning of this dream interpreted and when I had it this time, the message sank in deeper. I then spent some time in the presence of the Lord, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me that 'If you don't let go bigger doors, greater doors and opportunity will not come your way'. I then prayed a hard prayer, which is to let go 'the little darling' into the hands of God.
Communication hasn't been good with her lately, but I know for sure that God can do great and might things and that He has her precious life in His hands.
In our lives we reach a point of time in our lives where we realize that life is not just living for ones self but for others, surviving in this world for the sake of someone else. We dig deep into the very core of our being, hoping that someway or somehow we might find the answers to the problems of the people around us. We try our best to be heroes and saviours to them but all we find in ourselves often is not big enough to give. As we continue this endless search of finding the hero inside of us or wait for the time to come where it will surface, we often forget that the hero in us is Him and not us.
In Zachariah 4:6 it says
'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the Lord Almighty.
Truly, no matter what we do or say, we can never transform a life. We may be able to inspire but that's as far as it will ever go. This verse tells us also between the lines, that we need to use our power and might but it is not because of what we do or how much we do that lives are changed, but it is by the the Spirit of the Lord.
I hope this final part to 'The Little Darling' has taught you a great deal on surrendered and selfless love. Remember, that as we use our power and might, every ounce of our lives to touch others, it is not because of that that people turn to Jesus, but it is by God's might hand that DNAs are altered. Nevertheless, let us go and do what we must do in our lifetime on earth, honouring God, seizing every opportunity that is laid before us and also those that are not laid before us, being channels for the Holy Spirit to touch others.
'WORDS OF FAITH'
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down every arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. (2 Corinthians 10:4-6 NKJV)
