Change is Here...

Praise the Lord, Wind of Change is blowing through Sarawak Iban Annual Conference-Methodist Women! How 'strong' the 'wind' will depend on His chosen group of 'young' ladies who have been elected to lead for the next 2 years. Pray for us to receive guidance/blessing to do his work and fullfill the mission at hand. The theme for the next quadranium is "Spreading the Gospel, Transform the Nation" (hope the translation is right, but I will get the English version, soon and update here).
In any organization/society, Change is hard to accept and lots of resistance to it from the 'old' timers or former leaders, but with prayers and guidance from the President SIAC Rev Steward Damat, we tend to 'follow' and be 'guided' by our spiritual leader. Thank you Lord for your merciful blessings and guidance!

Here's the new 'young' ladies, 95% first timers, elected to lead the SIAC-MW for the next 2 years. May the Lord bless and guide them as they do Lord's works through Methodist Women aka Bala Indu Methodist.

By the way, yours truly was nominated for the post of President, and was appointed as Vice-President. You will wonder ... how does the system works? Well, I lost the election for the Presidency and thus appointed as the Vice. This was one of the challenge and matter that I have been praying about for years, to be or not to be; to heed the call or ignore it? In the end, I leave it to His hands and He has spoken and defined the role. Include me in your prayers that I will be able to deliver and serve.

Maybe as I wonder, and I'm sure others do also is how am I going to fit THIS new role into my already busy life! Work is already so demanding with my many functions/responsibilities coupled with my leadership of Sarakup, other community societies PLUS now MW? Well, the Lord knows what you need and put you in the 'right' place and creates 'right' environment etc.. PLT, my 2 key officers in Sarakup are now more free to take more active roles; see how the Lord 'arranges' our life!

Let's go forth, and do what we have to! I would love to quote great Bible verses at this juncture, but know only one (recognizing this as my weakness) and so I will leave with a request my friends ... Pray for me always to have the wisdon, strength, love, and passion to do Lord's work in whatever capacity He has emplaced me!
