Read Isaiah 6:8-10.  I love Isaiah’s response to the power, the glory, and the majesty of God that he witnessed in his vision of the Lord. After seeing the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted with the train of His robe filling the temple; and after one of the seraphs touched his lips with a burning, hot coal, his response was, Here am I.  Send me!”    

How is the Lord revealing Himself to you - His power, His might, His glory - that  you, like Isaiah might say, Here am I. Send me?”

  1. I've been praying for more specifics, but I'm getting the sense that God is saying to me - and maybe to all of us - that we can be more than we are right now.

Read James 1:2-15. One of the greatest challenges I face is seeing the trials that I face as assets. It is through those trials – difficult and distressing as they may be – that my faith becomes stronger. In them I learn to trust in God’s providence and His promises. So today, instead of grumbling or bemoaning, I want to ask:   “God, what can I learn today? How can I grow?”

Read John 15:1-17. The phrase from this passage that stands out the most to me is found in verse 15: “I no longer call you servants … instead I have called you friends.” This speaks to me of a different kind of God – a God who desires a relational connection to each of us. That echoes throughout the passage, of course, with the imagery of branches connected to the vine. But to be considered a friend of Jesus is a far more intimate image for me. As with any friendship, I need to cultivate that friendship, spending time with Him, talking to Him, listening to Him. That’s my goal today.

Read Proverbs 3:5-6. Some of the greatest wisdom is found in these verses. And some of the greatest understanding comes out of reflecting upon the question: How am I to trust God in the midst of uncertainty? How am I to completely and fully depend, not upon myself, but on the provision, the peace, and the protection of God?     How might you acknowledge God today so that the path of God might be clear for you in the days ahead?
