A beautiful reminder from the homily of Fr. Rico Dingal: sometimes, God speaks to us not through grand signs, but through the people He places in our lives.
Even in music ministry, God uses different people to correct us, challenge us, humble us, and help us grow. Sometimes, the message is difficult to accept because we donโt like the messenger. But perhaps the question is not โWhy is this person irritating me?โ but โWhat is God trying to teach me through this person?โ
As ministers, we are called not only to sing for God, but also to listen for Godโeven when His message comes through someone we struggle to understand.
โAyaw sig hulat ug puhon, kay basin muabot ang panahon nga matapos na ang panahon.โ
May we learn to see every person, every correction, every challenge, and even every difficult encounter as an opportunity to become better servants. What irritates us today may be the very thing God is using to shape us into the people and ministers He calls us to be.
Some people come into our lives as a blessing, others as a lessonโbut perhaps both can ultimately lead us closer to God.
So, to everyone serving in music ministry: keep listening, keep serving, keep growing, and never give up on the people God has entrusted to you. They may just be the precious pearls He is using to teach you how to love, serve, and become more like Him. ๐ถ๐
โEven difficult people can become Godโs instruments. The question is: will I listen?โ
