IS 6:1-8Meditate
God chooses the most broken people to do the most amazing things. It is pretty incredible to be honest. And it honestly takes all the pressure off. God calls us to follow Him and to participate in His Kingdom. All we have to do is say yes and show up! We do not have to do it perfectly. We do not have to have it all figured out. We just have to simply say "here I am, Lord," and do our best to follow.
In a world obsessed with "perfection," it is so hard for many of us to truly understand this concept. To God, perfect is not flawless, it is you being completely you. We don't have to be holy first, because it is God who will make us holy when we simply show up. It is like going to the doctor, you don't wait until you are feeling better to be seen; you go when you are feeling the worst.
Today, let us follow Isaiah's simple example and say "here I am, Lord." Let our humble yes be the thing that makes us holy.
Pray
What are some ways you can say yes to God today?
Are you present to the Lord in this very moment, or obsessed with the past or the future?
What is holding you back from a bigger yes to the Lord right now?
Contemplate
"Come Holy Spirit."
"Jesus."
"Here I am, Lord."
Act
Be present to the Lord today. Simply say yes and show up, and let Him do the rest.
