Our speaker at church this morning was Bro. Jo Balais. If you don't know him, his life story was featured on TV many years back for a lenten presentation of the 700 Club Asia. I remembered at a young age being inspired while watching it. He was once a hoodlum, a public enemy no.1. He has killed a number of people and once the leader of the notorious "Bahala Na Gang", until he met God. His story is a picture of God's grace and forgiveness...that anyone at any condition can be transformed and have a renewed life if he will just allow God to enter in. God is the one changing the character of a person.
Who would have thought that the once known criminal was now a Pastor? Yes...God can really do miracles in a person's life.
Speaking of changes, I too pledge for a character change. I know I need to change some crooked ways. I need to pattern this for my new found significance. Yes, you read it right. I now felt significant in my work after all.
I just realized everything after I attended a workshop/training about being INDISPENSABLE. Prior to this, I was feeling insignificant and ordinary. Unimportant. I don't feel the prestige unlike others who had the same title/position as mine. Actually, I had a personal dilemma...for months now. Just then this training came. It somehow, awakened me... and made me realized my importance. I was literally awakened at 2 am today thinking of all these things and all the things I should start doing. I just realized, I don't have an Individual Development plan so I better start doing the things I should do...the soonest time possible.
