convocation reflection (June 21, 2013)

A piece of paper worth almost $25,000.. ever seen or heard that kind of paper? hehe
I have po and I’m sure most of you have too po hehe.

Alas after 5 years, last week Friday, I was able to hold such a paper..
convocation! #PG hehe

It was a blessed and joyful day.. it was MV shout week.. Amee’s convocation was the day before.. the weather was beautiful 🙂
but the Lord always has His ways of tapping my head or slapping (gently hehe) my face to somewhat wake me up to reality (this is a good and joyful thing po hehe)..

as I was waiting for my name to be announced and as I walked forward to get “hooded” and to shake people’s hands..the Lord made His move..

btw, this is how the convocation path looked like from my pov..

as I was walking down the carpet/stage, all that went through my head was “yay! finally done! I did it!” and I just couldn’t wait to finish it with the walk down the stage..
but for some reason as a took my first step down that carpet.. my left foot slipped out of my shoe and I almost lost my balance (my family didn’t notice it but I felt it hehe)

at that moment, it was like the Lord tapped me to remind me of why and how I came to that point..
in a way He was also reminding me that His teaching or courses for me is not done..
every moment is the continuation of His work and plan unfolding..
don’t get too excited and assume the end because there is more..
learning does not end in convocation. I guess it’s only a check point? hehe
learning and discerning goes beyond..

I don’t know if I am making any sense here..
but the Lord has truly blessed me in giving me the opportunity to experience such victories like graduating.
And I thank the Lord for always giving me small and sometimes big taps to remind and bring me back to reality..
it’s all Him, in Him, with Him.
Thank you po PapaG 🙂
