Spiritual gifts

"But i will keep on hoping for your help;
I will praise you more and more.
I will tell everyone about your
righteousness
All day long I will proclaim your
saving power,
though i am not skilled with words.
I will praise your mighty deeds.
O sovereign Lord.
I will tell everyone that you alone
are just."
Psalm 71 v 14-16


After Vocational Fellowship, i've been doing a lot of thinking, and spending like a lot of time reading my Bible, and time in prayer. Time with God, asking him to help me, asking him to give me the courage and strength to explore the spiritual gifts that he's been laying on my heart since Friday night.

And all that, for some reason, led me to the bible study tonight. Usually i wouldn't go unless someone was coming with me, or back when laura and i used to go on Tuesday nights. But yesterday and today, i've left something different. Like something within myself has went all calm, and like i knew i needed to be at that Bible study for some reason.

On Friday night, Kelston prayed that we'd each get a conformation of God's call on our life. And without thinking, like totally forgetting all weekend he had prayed that prayer, got to church on Sunday morning. Matthew's illustration that morning was, what do you want to be when you grow up?.Then he turned it round by saying that sometimes God has other plans for our lives and that we basically can't run from that. That, with what someone reminded us all on Friday night..."God will equip you with whatever you need, in his time".

So, thats the run down of my life right now. I am exploring the spiritual gift of preaching.
And on top of that, i'm trying to get myself ready for my teaching exams these next few weeks.
