Teen's Spiritual Life

Are You called?

One of the problems that we, teens, suffer right now is that how do we know that God called us. Actually, maraming paraan ang ginagawa ng diyos para ika'y tawagin, but the question is   how did we respond?

Best Example

Gospel Sharing 

We all know that kung ikaw ay isang Sundalo sa Diyos! We should be like him as said in 1 John 2: 6 "Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walk". At ang #1 reason ni Jesus na bakit siya bumaba dito is to rescue us from death, and how did he rescue us? by Sharing his words. 

I mean, magugoluhan yata kayo kasi, Yes! Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins but also Sharing his gospel is also one of the factors of why he saved us, sinabi niya duon "how, can we go to heaven?" it is by Faith, sinabi niya duon how can we live long? "Obey your parents" at marami pang iba, diba because of his words We have this assurance na makakapunta na tayo sa heaven and BY OBEYING ON HIS WORDS, ITANIM SA PUSO'T ISIPAN ANG MGA ARAL NA KANYANG IBINAHAGI SA MUNDO dahil yan ang makakaligtas sa iyo from eternal death. 

So, author anong connect nito sa calling ni God?

If you feel like sharing the Gospel, or may nagpapa- advice sa iyo o merong problema. That is a calling. Banatan mo agad ng mga bible verse o i- pray mo. dahil kasi  you don't know na mag-cocommit na pala siya ng suicide but hindi niya tinuloy kasi narining niya ang mga inspirational lessons na he/she will realize na "Oo nga, I should find the meaning of my life". Oh diba incredible ang magic ng calling ni God kasi you saved a life i mean doble pa!

But! 

Sometimes or all times we refuse his calling, we say NO sa kanya dahil kinakain tayo ng hiya, kinakain tayo ng mga deep thoughts, kinakain tayo ng "Ano kaya ang masasabi niya sa akin" 

Nilalaroan ni Satan ang iyong isipan. Yong friend mong lumapit sayo para hindi niya ipagpatuloy ang kanyang suicide. Tinuloy niya. because ni refuse mo ang calling ni God.      

Wake up! oy! bumangon ka diyan at ipakita mo kang satan na kaya mo siyang labanan!

HE IS THE ONE WHO IS WITH DAVID WHEN HE FAUGHT GOLIATH! HE IS THE ONE WHO LEADS MOSES AND THE PEOPLE TO THE PROMISE LAND! HE IS THE ONE WHO SHUT THE LION'S MOUTH WHEN DAVID WAS THROWN INTO THE DEN! HE IS THE ONE WHO CALM THE SEAS, HE IS MY GOD! I HAVE A STRONG GOD! AND NO ONE EVER IN THIS WORLD CAN MOVE ME, BECAUSE HE'S MY ROCK, I AM HIS AND HE IS MINEEEEE!

Think of that! You have a BIG GOD! he got your back! when dinidisturb kayo ni satan, Pray, pray, pray!

Based on experience, because I am a Worship Leader. Sometimes kinakain ako ng takot, that leads me to lie on our leader na nag-assign sa akin. But suddenly I realize that this is God's calling bakit ko ito ni rerefuse? he gave his life for me, so I will give my life to him!. And all the time kinakabahan ako while ako ang nag- woworship lead? I keep on telling myself na "Bakit ka mahihiya? Sila ba ang kinakantahan mo? sila ba ang audience mo? sa kanila mo ba inaalay ang worship? Diba hindi? Para ito sa diyos! para ito sa diyos!

Dalawa lang po ito na example but it leads into one story "FEAR IS THE BARRIER" on why we don't answer his call. Hope that you will realized these things because sobrang ganda po talaga if God is on your side, hindi ka man niya mababago instantly but as years goes by, hindi mo na ma no- notice na nagbago ka na pala.

So If you are called, respond with a joyful heart and say YES LORD!

To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.  1 Peter 2: 21
