I felt to tell the men of our church how God has blessed me and if he is blessing me then he will bless you also. There are many promises within our Bibles that God himself has spoken to all of us. It is written for God so loved the world that he gave his only son it says the world not only Arthur. If I am being blessed then I expect you will be blessed also.
My story started some time ago I had no intention of pursuing a career as a counselor But I was often approached by people who wanted to off load some of their grief. This was happening for many years however the last 12 months has been different I could feel a magnetic pull upon my life towards counseling.
I tried to resist this for many months even though I was sensing people’s emotions. I wanted no part of this. I have my own problems how can I help others? God knows my life from start to finish and he started to lead me through my childhood hurts. I am 50 years old and the visions of these hurts were real and so were the tears. I thank my loving Father in heaven for choosing me.
If he trusts me then I trust him.
In mid 1990’s I attended several small counseling courses but never followed this path. Over the last several months I have searched for some way I could become a professional counselor however the cost of education for a fifty year old with commitments has been looking hopeless.
I got so desperate I cried out to God: - you know what is in my heart Lord you need to do this I cannot do this without you. He answered quickly I don’t normally buy the Saturday age but when I did there was a story about a man who had survived leukemia twice and he was looking for people to train as telephone counselors.
I was quoted $3,000 to $5,000 for a course in professional counseling this man would train me for $120.00 Is God Good.
And I am now a part of this mans life and training is ongoing. What a blessing. I feel God wants to bless this man through me also. But that is not all last Monday 11/8 I was a part of a small news clip about this man and his group of counselors which was shown on the Chanel Nine News. God took me from desperation to becoming a counselor and an opportunity to be on national television.
What can he do for you? Ask from the heart I know he is waiting. God bless you so much.
Arthur Burvill.
