“Here I am Lord, send me” (Isaiah 6:8).
“Father, not my will but yours be done…” ~Jesus
Before I can be trusted to wield the blessings, authority, power, and resources of God – and this is certainly His intent– I must come forward with hands raised in surrender. I’m not first a servant leader; I am first a servant submitting to a Leader. If you dare, make this your prayer:
Father,
Here I am Lord. I am not hiding.
Send me on the assignment you choose.
I am your servant; you are my Leader.
Send me…
to speak up at the risk of losing face,
to invest my assets for returns I can only cash in eternity,
to give away my talents in secret,
to lose my life while the battle still seems hopeless.
Here I am…
Amen
