NCA Leadership Journey Batch 12Preparatory Activity 3
It is just a few more days before we undergo the NCA Leadership
Journey.
We will be meeting new friends, be with like-minded people, be sharing
moments with kindred spirits.
We will be meeting our God.
Have you prepared yourself?Have you spent time with yourself?
Have you started reflecting about your life?
Are you ready to look and reflect upon your life, your life’s work and choices?
How are you?
That is why we invite you again to quiet down, have some time for
yourself.
Take away those burdens, those concerns, those problems.
Put down your masks, your facades, your badges and emblems.
Let the true self surface – the
bare self that is away from all those defenses and coping
mechanisms.
Pilgrim’s Theme
Kindly listen and reflect on the lyrics of the song:

confused?
What image of yourself is formed listening to the song?
3 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture 4 Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: 6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. 7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
Psalm 37:3-7

As you look at your heart, as you seek your core and as you contemplate on
your life, what are your deepest desires?
Why are these your deepest desires?Have you asked for these? Why? Why
not?

Message it wants to convey to you
It is in knowing our deepest desires that we find God; and it is in letting God lead our lives
that we find our deepest desires.
However difficult or confusing life gets, the constant invitation
for us is to see through our experiences as moments of
love.
A love that is overflowing. A love that will always be with us in our journey – embracing us, filling us from within, assuring
us of its constant presence.
