Finding Your Purpose

God works in unexpected yet amazing ways!

so much have happened in the past month, or the past year actually. bit by bit, the puzzle pieces of my life are coming together as i'm starting to make sense out of my education and to slowly understand where God is leading me to for my future vocation.

especially now when my college education is coming to an end.

really thank God for speaking to me through various people, like my mum, winston, 施牧师娘, church friends and even M! it wasn't a one-off thing, but really an accumulation of events, reflections, listening and sharing with different people.

of course, the toughest hurdle to cross now is FYP. i've always likened FYP to "Finding Your Purpose", with "Your" referring to God.

i had a long talk with my mum yesterday night, about church.. about the different callings the youths have.. about our vocations as Christians.. about my own calling.. about full-time ministry.. and we finally settled on the topic of my FYP. that was our second time discussing about my FYP, the first being the crucial spark that convinced me to change my FYP topic. after the chat with her, once again, i now feel so much clearer and more hopeful about what i'm going to do! she even offered to be one of my helpers for my project and suggested a few names whom i can approach.

more importantly, i feel so much more excited to execute my project! knowing that i have my mum's support, understanding and knowledge in that area; knowing that it really has the potential to bring meaning and hope to people's lives; knowing that it all ties in very nicely with my burden for people and my considerations of being an art therapist, both of which have been confirmed over the past few months; knowing that ultimately, i have to look beyond grades or portfolio or even my future career, with the deep-seated faith that as long as i remember this burden of restoring His kingdom, do His work faithfully and honour Him with all my life, He will provide accordingly.

looking forward to enjoying this FYP process. (:

to God be the glory!
