All have been called by God - usually through the voice of others - signs in the air - in Holy Scripture - great and small literary works - various events - situations. All have been called - not all respond. Many so busy with the demands of daily life - too busy to notice - others - hearing that call - choose to ignore - not worthy - too busy - someone else better qualified. Day in and day out God calls to each of us - awake - time is short - your hands - eyes and ears - your voice needed - to continue the works of His Son - Jesus. None of us worthy - all are called. Through the power and strength of His Holy Spirit - all able to do mighty and awesome works in His Name.
God does not call us to walk on waters - die on a cross - rather in the everyday - ordinary events of life - we are called to be His witness to those around us - at work - in the marketplace - at sporting events - at home. By our baptism - we share in the ministry of Christ. We have been called to be priest - prophet - king of our lives and as such to take control of the good that we can do. As modern day disciples we have been called to teach and preach - to comfort and heal - to forgive and reconcile - to build and create - the kingdom of God - here and now. All have been called - who will answer His call.....
Here I Am Lord...
