I believe in you!

Scripture Reference: Hebrews 11:8-12

As the title saes... "I believe in you" and who is this "you"? Am I referring to God? If not, who else? Hee.. today's devotion is adapted on Shawna's sharing at the congre. I do not know if her sharing spoke to you or not but it certainly did to me.... Frankly speaking, it was not the 3 points that she shared tat inspired me... but it was the speaker's leader that inspired me... The reason why Shawna was able to stand there to speak was because someone believe in her.. someone tinks she is special, she is a princess of God.. that she is worthy before the Lord... and someone who did not give up on her.

To my dear sisters/leaders out there:

Have you stop believing in your people? I questioned myself on that all the time. As most of u noe that I have some sec gals in my cell... It was never a easy journey since day 1... many times I really want to surrender... (not to the Lord but to throw in the towel! haha) but I noe the Lord refused to let me let go of them.. why? Cos' I choose to see them using my own naked eyes, my perception of them, their past behaviours to determine who they are.. who there will become... I have stop believing in them. But thx be to God... during the G12 conference..... I managed to speak to one of them.. a heart to heart talk for the longest time.. tats when I realised that how broken, how confused they are... Today, will you choose to hear the felt needs and love them for who they are or demand them to meet up with your "Godly" expectations?

To those who wants to serve but...:

In 2 Tim 1:7 "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline." What is holding you back from serving Him.... if today you lacked the courage because of the baggages/experiences you have.. will you surrender it before the Lord and said I let it go... I no longer want to be timid... I want to move in boldness... don't say you are too young, too old, too busy for the Lord...... Today, will you make a stand once and for all?!!

Food for thot: If Abraham can be used by the Lord (though he was sooo wishy-washy in the beginning), certainly the Lord can use you...would you want to pursue a life of faithfulness and obedience or a life of self-indulgence and disillusions?
