When I responded to the call of God to be more equipped and be able to help destitute people by His glory, God did not disappoint me by using people to support my schooling in social work field. Indeed I am thankful that God is so faithful in giving me His grace and favor by passing the entire major subjects with a general average of 1.25 a total of 95% I am humbled that it was God who has given me the knowledge and strength to overcome all the required major subjects in social work profession. I know I am on the right track.
I have learned that if God will call you to do something for His glory He will not leave you alone. He will be by your side at all times. He will provide everything that you need. That was my experience with all the sleepless nights studying to be more enhanced and effective in the field of social work. I became more in love with being a registered social worker and doing the best that God wants me to be. I am dreaming that finally I am in my last year of schooling; indeed nothing is impossible with my God whom I serve.
My knowledge in social work field will be what helps those destitute people. My heart really is for the welfare of the voiceless people such as children, who are abused in any way, young people who are in crisis situations and older people who need our help, but how can we help them if our heart is closed and our eyes are blind? God is so good. He wants me to reach out to them, to help them be independent and self-sufficient so they can stand on their own.
This year will be my final year in my schooling, I will be assigned to a mental health facility, although it will not be easy to handle clients with mental health problem but I know for sure God has a purpose. For sure challenges will arise upon my way but I do believe God is my strength. I will take it as my training ground to enhance my capabilities and at the same time minister to the family and even to the clients, who are in a mental health situation.
I am humbly asking for your prayers and support that God will give me the strength to do and obey His will.
Blessing:
Cristina Espanto
