I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here I am, send me.” (Isaiah 6:8)
We are all here for a reason. Never doubt that there is a mission only you can fill. Even on days when there seems no end in sight, and the light at the end of the tunnel is but a dim flicker, we are called to press on to fulfill our mission in life. Our hearts are the foundation of everything that makes us who we are, and the clearest signal we will ever have as to our calling. It is through being open to God and His call that we can fulfill our mission. Often our mission is clear, concise, and easily identifiable. Other missions require us to step outside of our norm or comfort zone, and yet others seem to fall at our feet, presenting themselves in unexpected ways or places. As long as we have breath in our bodies, we are called by God to fulfill His mission...to love others, feed the hungry, and to minister to those in need. We are, in other words, called into mission to “be Jesus to others.” That mission is different for each of us, but as children of God, it is our call to respond, "Here I am Lord, send me."
IronMaker’s Daily Challenge: Identify and fulfill your “mission for today” in answering God's call into His service.
Prayer: Lord, open my heart to what you would have me to do, and to do it willingly and selflessly. May I always respond to your call saying, "Here I am, send me."
