In the Old Testament, the phase occurs many times when God is communicating with those chosen to carry out his will here on earth. Moses, Abraham, Jacob and Samuel all answer God's call with "Here I am."
How will you respond? Will you be quick to respond to God's call? Will you say "Here I am?" Or will you give him an excuse about not having the time, correct skill set, or expertise to accomplish the work that he has for you?

God is calling to us today

How can we use our skills and our resources, to advance God's kingdom? To share the love of Jesus with others? To reach out to our neighbors? To form community?
When Moses has doubts about bringing the Israelites out of Egypt, God answers, “I will be with you." And that is true for us as well. God is with us. Father, Son and Holy Spirit guide us, open doors to service, make funds available to pledge, give us time when we believe we have none, provide opportunities to share the joy, share love, and to create community. All you need to answer is "Here I am." |
