Isaiah 6:8 "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!'"
Isaiah sees a vision of the Lord and at that time God asks for someone to go preach repentance to Judah. Isaiah steps and up and responds "send me." I'm not sure if Isaiah completely understood what he was getting into, but the people God truly uses rarely ever understand the fullness of what God is calling them to anyway.
Would I have stood up and said "send me?" Am I willing to do that now? Am I truly willing to go wherever God calls me? And it's not just in the big changes in life...am I willing to be sent today, in the situation I find myself right now? Jonah was sent to Ninevah, Isaiah to Judah, but maybe God just wants to send me to where am I right now? But I am willing to truly be "sent?"
Dear Jesus, continue to change my heart so that I hear you when you say "follow." Amen.
