Day 29......Accepting Your Assignment

Golly.......this just hit me. We only have 11 days of this study left! Wow. I had wanted to read this book since....oh boy, I think it was October that someone gave it to me. Then when the LORD told me to not only have a partner to read it with, but make many my partners, and start a worldwide blog for folks to participate. I sort of panicked I guess. Believe me, I don't have a shortage of things to do. And some days are busier than others. But that's what service is all about. I've seen more and more that folks really don't want to help, they don't want to do anything. It can be frustrating, but rather than whining about it, I know I need to pray about being led by the Spirit to implement things for folks to help with. One lady who's taking part in this study (she's not able to get online) told me "You know, we all have talents. I sure wish we could get everyone to share theirs with us." She's right, you know. God gave us all gifts, so that we could use them in service to one another and others. We're not supposed to be shut up in the church whispering Jesus' name. Hey, we don't live in China, or Iran. We have the right to share our faith, and to share His love. Let's not hide that light under a basket anymore.

"What is holding me back from accepting God's call t serve Him?"

I don't allow anything to get in the way of that. Nothing. He's first. Anyone who really knows me, knows that about me. :-) James
