Something that God has done in my life

God is truly always working in my life. I see it every day. God always knows what to do and he gives me the things that I need when I need it. He builds me more and more each and every day and I couldn’t be more grateful. But recently, God has done something that is going to change my life. In this blog post, I will tell you all what God is doing in my life, what I did to get that result, and also show you what it takes to get there. Let’s begin.

He has shown me my calling

            I have always wanted to write music. I know that I am gifted at music and music creation, but now I see why God gave me the gift of music. He didn’t give me that gift so that I could corrupt his good will, but rather, he gave me this gift for this holy purposes. The Good Lord gave me music so that I may give it back to him. What an amazing destiny. The Good Lord has musicians at his side that want to serve him. I love God for that. I am a musician and I want to serve God with my music.

            I know that in this music path there will be downfalls and trials, however, the Good Lord gave me the will and strength to overcome these tests. The Good Lord will not leave my side and I can confide in him that whatever I do in his name will be blessed.

            I remember when I first started to play the guitar, I prayed to God each and every time before I played for God to make me a great musician. Sure enough, God made me exactly that. That is no accident, God himself was with me every time I played the guitar and he was there guiding my fingers and training my hands to be the guitarist that I was called to be.

How will I do this?

            I do not know how God is going to let me work on my songs while doing all the things that I need to do, but I can confide that God will be the one to guide me, like how he always does. I do not know where the money will come from, I do not know if I will ever get signed to a record label, I don’t know if my music will ever be put on the radio, but I have more faith in God that God will be the one to provide for all of those things if need be. God gives good things because he loves us.

            I remember one time my preacher was preaching and he said, “There was a preacher in Africa and his goal in life was to spread the word in Africa. So he started a church in the Congo, and at the end of his life, when he was on his death bed, he said that he failed at what God had ordained him to do. Years past and then a group of missionaries revisited the Congo and went into the deep parts of the Congo. They went to a part where no one goes to. They found a church and people praising in that church God’s name. When the missionaries asked who taught them these things, they said that a preacher years ago, came and preached to them the word. Sure enough the church was growing and sure enough Christians were forming. So, the preacher who preached did not fail in life, God just had other plans.” My point is this, I do not know what God has planned for my music, but I do know that God has plans and his plans are awesome. I can have faith in that! If I never make a dollar off of my music, yet churches all around the world sing the songs that I wrote, I would have succeeded in life. If no one sings my songs, yet my songs have moved one person, then I would’ve succeeded in life. They weren’t my songs to begin with, but rather, they were God’s.

Moving on

            I know that God can provide, but my sin nature just wants me to doubt him. I see how God is so good, but I need to let go of that sin nature and focus on the good things that God is really telling me to do. God has blessed me with a job, God has blessed me with this blog, God has blessed me with freedom and resources and a spirit that doesn’t give up. I have to do what God is telling me to do because now, my calling is to serve God.

            I am currently making a concept album and I plan on showing it to my friends and asking for their advice, but we’ll see what God has planned out for me. I am so excited at my calling! I know that when the time is right, God will provide for all of the things that I need to successfully accomplish my goals, calling, and dreams.

            This blog is a sort of extension to my music. I wanted to create this blog because I wanted to reach out to people all across the world and tell them about my music. I don’t know if I have done correct things to get the attention needed, but I won’t worry about it. God himself is in control and my errors will not interfere with what he has planned for me.

            Thank you all for listening in on this blog post. The last thing that I wanted to say was that I have known my calling for a long time, it’s just that I wasn’t confident in it. But God has really put confidence in me now about my calling. I hope that you guys can too find the calling that God has called you to do. I hope that I have been an encouragement and inspiration to you guys. Please read your bible, go to church, pray, and love God above all else. Like, comment, share, and subscribe. I will see you all next time. German Gonzalez, signing out!
