My calling!

                                                          We all have a calling from God!
The big question is, do you believe that you have a calling?
Do you believe that the God of the universe has a purpose for your life?

If you are reading this than you probably know me pretty well, which means that you know how much that I love working with children! I have believe that everyone has a calling! This morning God gave me the exact reassurance of my calling. You see my youth minister Chris was preaching at another church this morning so with the help of another lady, I got to lead KFC( kids for Christ, basically children's church). I picked songs to sing that had motions and that's where the amazing experience began. I got all the children dancing and moving to the songs. All you saw in the room was smiles and laughter. Then we played fun games that I also lead. The awesome part is that I got all the kids to follow after me and play the game. The kids listened when I spoke. They loved the game and the music. The sermon I acted out to help the kids get a better understanding of the story of Jesus being taken away by the guards! By the end of KFC the kids had the biggest smiles on their faces! The parents soon came in and the kids ran to them and began telling them all about the fun and great times that we had that morning. Several new kids who had never came before started asking their parents if they could come every Sunday!!!! This brought a huge smile to my face as the children thanked me as they left to go home!

I have been struggling with my "calling" in life. I sometimes thought and wondered what or how could God use someone like me?!? I have always been great with working and leading children. By the time I was 12 I was put in charge of a group of kids at VBS and my leadership from then took off. I continued to lead children from VBS to children's church, to summer camps, to working at day cares! Working with children is not hard or overwhelming or even annoying to me! Instead, working with children is amazing, wonderful, fun! God has given me the gift of being able to work with and to be able to understand children of all different types. I love working and being around children! Working with kids is my calling! God this morning helped show me that, working with kids is where he wants me to be! Thank you God for that reminder!
