Reflection 6 (Where to go Lord?)

            Patric was one of the Persons that they reported and his life was a captive of the Scots from England. Because he was a captive he became slave. He was a prayerful man for one of his prayer is he earnestly pray for his freedom from slavery. And he has a vision to escape from God. Patric’s life is amazing for when God answered his prayer to be freed. Then God imparted to his heart to go back where he became slave and become a missionary. He neglected the worst experience of his life while he was a slave. Being a slave is the lowest ranking job, or a person who is a slave is a possession to his or her master. Then Patric decided to return and not knowingly he became their patron. And Patric is from England.
            I learned that when Patric accepted the call of God it was not easy. Because the place where God called him to go is the place where he worked as slave. This is a big leap of faith knowing going back to the place and will be ministering to the people who enslaved him. In their time many people died because of slavery. For slave people are just mere tool, they have no value in the community and they look at these people as a thing. And in the later part of his ministry. Patric had finished his missions well, Ireland’s patron wasn’t Irish because it was Patric.

            We may choose a place to minister but God will be the one who is the final say in His ministry. I will just follow what Patric did that he was obedient to the call of God. Wherever place he will minister or people he will live with. Whether it will be a school, a rural place or urban or other side of the earth. I will make myself available to God.
