Send Me!

Scripture Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”

Observation: This has been my prayer for God to send me to proclaim the gospel. Yet the only thing stopping me from doing it is me. I ask God to send me to make a difference and then I don’t do anything else. There are opportunities all around me, but my laziness and lack of conviction keeps me still. I’m not sure what I’m expecting God to do. He has given me everything I need and I know if I begin speaking to others the Holy Spirit will be right by my side telling me what to say.

Application: I need to stop making excuses and start making plans on how I’m going to go out to do God’s work. I need to seek the help of others that can hold me accountable and give me direction on the best way to go out. I need to stop and listen to my Lord and be obedient to what He calls me to do.

Prayer: My Lord I’m here, please send me. Help me with this laziness and give me strength to fulfill the purpose you have created me for. Help me finish well.
