Lord, affirm me in what I'm doing if it's according to Your will.

AND GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH

 

For if this endeavor or this activity is of human origin, it will destroy itself. – Acts 5:38

 

“Sister, I’m afraid to take it up as a career,” I told my retreat directress when I realized that I have the gift of writing.

When she asked why, I said, “Because I feel that I’d dry up. I fear that I won’t be able to sustain it.”

“That’s where you are wrong. If it indeed is God’s gift to you, He will see you through.”

And so it came to pass. After 10 years of writing part-time, here I am now, writing full-time for the Lord.

In the same way, after 20 years, Kerygma is still around — changing people’s lives, bringing more souls closer to God and giving birth to Kerygma Conference, the biggest Catholic event of its kind in the country.

It has not been an easy journey — my 10 years orKerygma’s 20 years — but God certainly writes straight with crooked lines. There were financial difficulties, relationship problems and all sorts of trials, but when God is behind the task, nothing can destroy it.

It’s true what my directress said. God will see you through when you’re doing His work. I’m glad I trusted in her wisdom. Tess V. Atienza (svp_tvatienza@yahoo.com)

I personally believe that what I am doing right now is a gift from God. It is a gift that can give me more time to love and more blessings to share. I know that God will lead me to finish my tasks and live a good example.
