These have always been questions from God's children..
"How do we know that what we think comes from God?",
"How can I tell that I've chosen what God wants me to?",
"What makes you think - that is what God tells you to do?",
. . .
all of which refers to correctly hearing the voice of God.
I always remember what Linda (my care group leader) says.. "If something is truly from God, it will keep coming to you, eventhough you keep ignoring it. The Holy spirit will remind you on and on.. until you get it."
I was terribly busy and frustated with classes the past few weeks. The issues of getting good grades, graduating, and traveling -- alltogether make a good combination of burning me out. As you can tell, I miss my times with God, praying or reading His words.
Tomorrow is a big day. Final presentation for my research is due.. at 4 PM. After that, my life will be different.. I hope, since I want so much letting this research go. It's 9:45 PM now, and I haven't written my presentation at all. I have no idea what to write actually. Stronger than usual, God is calling me.. and so I decide to go to dailybread.com (or something alike) and read something. But then I was tempted to change my desktop wallpaper, so I turned to crossmap.com. After choosing a new wallpaper, I was going to close the browser, when I read a section on the right corner of the page: Sponsors. That one link got me - Compassion (compassion.com). I was surprised.. for another time God reminds me of this.. thing -- that I've been desiring for about two years now.
I want to adopt a child :)

I was sure even from before, that God calls me for this. But I am never as sure as now. Though I don't know how, and am not sure what will come, one thing I know for sure - God takes control and I am walking with Him.
Thank you Jesus for your true and everlasting love. I want to keep learning to listen to You and be a good child. And I will do what You ask me to.
Have you heard God's calling on you today? ^_^
Lie down on the grass and watch the vast sky, or close your eyes and hear the nature whispers. Let your mind free, and the wind shall take you wherever it goes.
