Dear All,
Love
Its a new year, and we are just out of the month of love. Valentine’s Day should be celebrated all year round so we are all reminded to love one another day in and day out. (Love is patient, love is kind... love never fails... These three remain, faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love! Parts of 1 Cor 13). Its a pleasure to share all the goings on over the past few months of my life.
Love is... Broadening your horizons
From June to December last year, my sweet mama decided to enrol me in a broadcasting school to provide other openings for ministry. I was also interested in doing voiceovers and the like anywhere I would get the opportunity. I thank God for seeing me through it. I was also to get myself attached to a radio station (Christian preferably) but that has not materialised so far. Please pray that the will of God will be revealed in this matter.
Love is... Going even when you don’t feel like it.
I have been going faithfully to the two nursery schools in my community, except for a term’s break when I was doing my radio broadcasting course. I have grown attached to those dear children, but many times I have felt like turning back. During our training though, we were told that many times on ministry days things would crop up giving us an excuse not to go. Our God is bigger than any excuse, and we were encouraged not to let anything stop us from going. I found this piece of advice very useful. I even went in the rain once (only Ghanaians know how much we hate rain). Whatever you are doing in the Lord's vineyard, please be encouraged to press on no matter what.
This is me coming back from my school programme one rainy day.Since January when I resumed my weekly visits to these schools, the joy I felt has known no bounds. I find the joy is tied to winning souls. So far 12 children have accepted Christ as their Saviour. Praise the Lord!
My going to New Horizon Special School turned out to be just a brief stint. They are pretty adequately fed when it comes to the word of God because there is a CEF trained teacher there. God is sooo good.
Yours in Him!
