FOLLOWING MY HEART AS IF A COMPASS

I visited a school today. The school belongs to a non-profit organization and the movement was started in Taiwan. Let's refer to it by the initial of TC. Most of the students are that of the less privileged family background. Actually they are very under privileged. They were the victim of government neglect. It was nice to see that the affluent of the country actually have a heart for them.

I was happy about it and it a whisper of self-actualization overcame me. There was an outburst of joyful compassion from my heart and it felt as if I was following my heart. Passion and compassion, the compass of the heart. It awakened the little Faith Sojourner that was left inside of me. Should I say, the diminishing trickle of left over zeal.

It felt as if God had opened a way for me. I always knew that there was a calling for me and through the years of hardship and obstacles, it had opened my heart to see that all I need to do is to freely flow into His will. At the same time, I realized that the biggest barrier is not that imparted by others, but that which is self-created.

Over the years of those preparation time where I experienced hardship, I found myself to listen first and listen more to others, see more than before and feel more than before. It was as if all of my senses are more sensitive and I am able to feel and think more of the stimulus than before.

So I guess here I am Lord once again. Ready to do Your will.
To follow my heart as if a compass
