I am learning:
– that a calling cannot and should not consume you.
– that at the end, what’s most important, is that love relationship between our hearts and who we call God.
– that as we love Him more and more, our callings will beckon us, in clearer ways, in ways unimaginable.
– that our callings become toilsome burdens only because we see ourselves as mere servants, and forget that ultimately, we are also God’s friend and child.
– that dreaming, like love, is a risk. And that while I’m dead scared (of both loving and dreaming), I think I will be less so in time.
-and that… it’s okay to dream. It’s okay to keep dreaming. It surprised me to find myself surprised to realise that, all over again.
And so it no longer bothers me so much anymore, to know for sure exactly what my calling is. Because out of love and dreams, trust and faith, tomorrow will become clear and certain eventually.
And that gives me great joy and freedom, to see it getting clearer, as I live in today, every day.
I SO needed to hear that today… been at a strange crossroads with my heart, my dreams, temptations to put this aside for love, ect. I can’t get over how God speaks to me thru you, my friend. Thank you SO for sharing your life and being an encourager, confirmation and a like-hearted sister with me!
Bless you girl!!
Love, Ashley in the US
Thanks so much for sharing Ashley. Im really amazed because I was feeling a little strange and not really in the mood to write. Yet something compelled me to just pen a few lines- now I know why 🙂
May He continue to make His way clear to you.

dearest Wai Jia 🙂
whatever you shared, is exactly what i’ve been seeing and realising; that God does things when we let go, let God while being ourselves.
and yes dreaming is a wonderful thing, yet He finds great pleasure when we tug His cloak and look into His eyes with that beaming glow. in knowing we trust Him by seeking Him and trusting, He makes things happen at His time without us realising until after it happens. i love this amazing God who is so creative and unimaginable :)He thrills us with His surprises and gave us dream, hope and purpose we have to live by each day, just enough for that day 🙂
in His love,
andrea
Love you dear. Thanks so much for that beautiful reminder. Hope you’ve been well 🙂 hug.
