Here I am

P.K.’s Corner
Isaiah6: 8 “Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said “Here am I, Send me.”

Isaiah had a vision, and in it God was looking for someone to take his words of warning and hope to the people. But, there were no takers, and Isaiah at first felt unworthy. But the key was not Isaiah’s worthiness; it was his willingness and availability.

Have you every been asked to do something and the first thing that comes to your mind is “I can’t do that.” One of the greatest lessons I ever had came from my boss when I was working in her insurance agency. She asked me if I could go out and measure some houses for a quote and then follow up with a letter and phone call. I had never done anything like this before, and I said, “I don’t know how, so I can’t” to which she said, “You mean you don’t know how and are willing to learn”. What a great lesson from a loving boss, and God is the same way. When we say we can’t, God says, “no you can’t yet, but when the time comes you will because I will be with you”. God is willing to invest the time into us so that we can be instruments of His Grace.



This month stop hiding behind excuses and stand up with Isaiah and say, “Here I Am, Send me. Let God know that you are available, that you are here. There are plenty of opportunities, don’t let them pass you by. Amen
