God’s Grace and Calling

Oh yes, now I am the Head of EusoffWorks.
Just had the first meeting with my main comm.

They are a bunch of great people!
There are the perfect people for the job that is ahead of them.
They have adequate skills for their particular area.
Me? I always wanted to just do my part, archiving and maintenance of the room.

But the reason I’m in this current position of a leadership post in a technical committee is really God’s grace.
My skills are nowhere compare to the people that I have in my main comm.
I’ve just picked up photography 2 years ago, and video should be around the same time as well.
The only thing that I have, which is exactly what drives me to work even harder, is the vision that I have.
Which is why I believe, this is trully God’s calling.

Somehow, God had planned this all along, he put unto me a passion to treasure moments, great moments of life.
He had planned that I will pick up videography and photography skills at the right moment.
He had provide me a place in Eusoff, that I may join EusoffWorks, a platform to realise the dream the he had gave me.

I’ve just prayed and tell God about my current situation.
And as I was doing my daily devotion, I came across Psalms 51:17
"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise."
It is not a coincidence, it is definitely divine.

I know I am nothing before you Lord!
Break me and mould me and use me as your vessel,
that I will be sensitive to your voice.
Lord, the road ahead is full of obstacles but
I know that you are always on my side supporting me!
Thank you Lord for the the race that you’ve marked out for me,
I will run the race but I know that it is not by my might nor my power,
but it is only through your Spirit, Lord!

Thank you Lord.

In Jesus most precious name I pray, Amen.

My primary calling?
Engineering Science (The fact that I got into NUS and into ESP was also a divine case. I am truly blessed! - read my old archive posts for more info)
But unfortunately, I have been unfaithful in managing my studies.
I shall buck up and work harder to fulfill my primary calling.
I will always remind myself that whatever I do, I do it to glorify God.

My secondary calling? To be the "captor of memories", blessing others with video and photography archive.
Of course, I should not forget that my calling to bless Eusoff Hall, transforming it to be a place where God’s blessings are so much that it will overflow to other halls, then eventually to the whole of NUS, finally blessing Singapore.
It may sound like a big dream, but I have faith in God and his plans for Eusoff Hall.
Thank you Lord!
