Sapagkat ang Diyos ang kumikilos sa inyo upang inyong naisin at isagawa ang kanyang kalooban.

Mga Taga-Filipos 2:13

Have you ever been passionate about something, but then given a different opportunity instead? Ganyan ang kuwento ni Jhun, isang batang nag-aspire maging fine arts student dahil sa hilig niyang mag-drawing. From copying the illustrations na nasa mga teks hanggang sa pagdo-drawing ng sariling comics, talagang mamamangha ka sa husay niya. But due to financial constraints, he took education as a course in college since ito lang ang kurso na may available scholarship. Kahit hindi niya alam kung kakayanin ba talaga niyang magturo sa mga bata, he walked through that door of opportunity once it opened believing na ang Diyos ang nagbigay nito sa kanya.

In his third year in college, they were asked to illustrate materials para sa pagtuturo. Dito niya na-realize na hindi pala nasayang ang binigay na talent ni God sa kanya. Later on, ginawa siyang official illustrator ng DepEd, at bukod sa pagtuturo, gumagawa rin siya ng mga children’s book.

Minsan akala natin, hindi na natin magagamit ang talents na meron tayo. That we will just use our passions for a hobby or makakalimutan na lang natin ito eventually. Pero wherever He instructs us to go, we will be able to use those God-given gifts for His glory. Dito, mas lalo nating mauunawaan bakit Niya tayo dinala sa sitwasyon o lugar na kinalalagyan natin ngayon. Indeed, God gives us talents and skills for a purpose.
