Send Me
This week’s reading: Isaiah 6:4-8
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
"Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty." Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar.
With it he touched my mouth and said, "See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for."
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?"
And I said, "Here am I. Send me!"
- When we encounter God in a meaningful way, there is no turning back
- He touches our lives and sends us out
- Once we encounter the brokenness in the world, there is no going back
- We can never again say “ I didn’t know!”
Prayer:
Lord thank you for touching my life. Thank you that I have the opportunity to influence the lives of others. Help me to do it to the best of my ability. Amen.
