Whom Shall I Send?
Today, July 11, 2020, one of the readings of the Church is Isaiah 6:1-8. It records the call of the great prophet Isaiah, who has a vision of the Lord seated on his heavenly throne. Isaiah exclaims, “Woe is me, I am doomed! For I am a man of unclean lips…and have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!”
An angel flies to him, touches Isaiah’s lips with a burning ember from the heavenly altar and says, “Your wickedness is removed, your sin is purged.”
Then the Lord says, “Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?”
“Here I am,” Isaiah says, “send me!”
Now few believers experience a call as dramatic as Isaiah’s. But we know the Lord is calling us, He wants to SEND you and me, however ungifted and weak we feel. In little and big things, He want us to advance His kingdom.
Listen for that call! And when you hear it, say “Send me. I will go.”
