God is so good. I am incredibly blessed by all that is happing in my life right now.
I have been in Australia for almost 2 months now and I cannot begin to explain the faithfulness God has shown me. Everything from a furnished flat with amazing flatmates, incredible teachers who continue to speak life into us students and an ever expanding family of unique and inspiring world changers. God has also been faithful in the small. People speaking words of encouragement into my life right when I need it. He has brought me life giving friendships and is showing me what it means to be a woman who seeks him out in everything. Its all so good!
Recently I have been thinking a lot about my calling. I remember countless times where people have come to me and have told me that I have a huge calling on my life and that God is going to use me in amazing ways. But I have no idea what this huge calling is. And I certainly don't know when it is supposed to happen. I feel like I have been waiting on God for so long and I am just ready for Him to do something big through me. I am ready to be the world changer everyone keeps telling me that I am!

It isn't about being patient and waiting for it... It is about being faithful in the process...
Luke 16:10 NLT
"if you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you wont be honest with greater responsibilities."
Luke 16:10 NLT
"if you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you wont be honest with greater responsibilities."
God has already been doing big things in me. He is teaching me how to be faithful to him in the small things. I have been allocated to serve in different areas here at Hillsong. It would be so easy for me to complain about where I have been placed or to only do the minimum of what is being asked of me. But the first day I started I decided that in everything I do I am going to praise God through it all. It would be so easy for me to tune out the sermon as I am working. So easy for me to disengage during worship. But instead I am really pushing myself to engage in everything and to go above and beyond what is expected of me.
God is using me right here and right now in everything that I do and say. My huge calling is to bless the people around me by bringing the love and service of Christ into every situation that I am placed in. My calling is to be a vessel for the Holy spirit to pour his living water into the lives of others. It doesn't matter what age, place, time it is. I am constantly being used to change the atmosphere around me by how I act in the small things. When you are faithful in the small, God will trust you with bigger responsibility.
