One song we sang during baccalaureate last night is one of my favorite hymns. It is called "Here I Am Lord". In this song, God says he's heard the cry of His people...the ones He loves more than anything. He says He needs somebody to go for Him, to be the light. The answer given in the song, and in the Scripture, is this:
Here I am Lord, Is it I Lord?
I have heard You calling in the night.
I will go Lord, if You lead me.
I will hold Your people in my heart.
God's calling us to go for Him...go to the weak, the lonely, the orphaned, widows. Not just around the world, but right here at home, among our friends, our family, and even strangers. So often we forget to look right around us. God calls us to go to Samaria and Judea, and to he ends of the earth. Some may be able to go overseas. Others God may call to stay at home and use your gifts to minister to those around you, right where you are. Either way, don't underestimate your work for the Kingdom...just go when He calls. It's totally scary, but completely worth it...don't underestimate what you and God can do together. Just remember, give everything to God...it's hard sometimes to answer the call, but it's worth it. Anyway, those are just my thoughts for the day. Have a great day! God's blessings and love to you!
