privileged

been super super duper privileged this past term to be able to teach CDS... i think i've never taught so much in one term!

i preached as well today at UDMM :) it's been a real learning curve for me, the couple of times already this year where i've had to preach then teach, feeling personally convicted and challenged and having God deal in your own heart about the things you are going to share, and being given a small glimpse into what the ministers go through when they have to pour out each week. you feel pretty drained at the end of the day but there is that real sense of joy and purpose and faith that God has used you to at least touch one life!

i'm so honoured to be given these opportunities to teach and be used as His mouthpiece.. many times it does scare me when i remember what it says in James 3:1 "Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly." but i've been simply blown away by privilege that it is to serve Him and partner with Him, and the grace of God in giving me words to say and just knowing and sensing His anointing, and being fully humbled by the gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit that i must always use my giftings for His glory and in serving His house! hearing from different ones that God has spoken to them is... wow. all worth it. anyway, just super grateful for the opportunities and believe God will continue to draw me closer, help me grow and improve for Him too! can't imagine doing anything else that has more value than to pour out and invest into eternity...
