Trust and Faith only to the who worked mightily in our lives...

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.”
Hebrews 11:1 “Now Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see”
Background: Grace and Peace be with you from God our Father and his Son Jesus Christ. Hello, I’m Axcel Sia, my spiritual name is Nicodemus. I’m 19 years old studying as a Physical Therapy student at Our Lady Fatima University. I’m very much the person you don’t want to be with. Literally. I’m very boastful, easily-tempered, proud, self-righteous and competitive. This attitude of mine is effective to for to establish my ground in academics, family and from anyone, it help me excel and but failed to establish friends. Behind all this I’m just a typical person who seeks love and respect but due the fear I feel, I kept myself growing spiritually and everyone else. I am very lost. My mother that taught me how to pray is always praying that someday, I might love and trust God and his Son Jesus Christ for me to have a straight path to success. Have faith in His plan and will for my life.
Major Spiritual influences in your life: Shepherd Doctor John Talavera
When I was 2nd Year College, everything is well being officers of 5 organizations in Fatima and top of my class, when suddenly I was struck of many struggles and trials, 1st my father became unemployed, 2nd feud between my mother and his brother, 3rd being heart-broken. I feel weary and full anxiety. One day, during the organization week of Fatima, as usual walking by the corridors being a worry-rier, Doctor John saw me and invited me to attend the bible study but I said I’ll try. Later on, having no motive to go suddenly I found myself in the front of the room and Doctor John invited me in. I felt such comfort and joyful but I cannot fully commit due to my other affiliations but still Doctor John still pursues me. Summer of 2010, all the trials and struggles I faced early on were suddenly solved but still I failed to acknowledge and thankful who work mightily. 3rd year College, when another struggle I faced when my father and mother went to Nevada to work for me and my sister schooling. I became solely to manage everything that is left for me to do so now I transformed again into a worry-rier, I found rest and comfort upon hearing God’s word through the series of bible study I attend. God have mightily in my life that He lead me to join the summer conference of UBF-Ignite summer conference, I felt great joy, comfort and compassion. God have take hold me and little by little I became committed to ignite. God’s will, plans, and grace greatly unfolds in my life the moment I start to trust and acknowledge Him in my life.
