Draw me to you Lord!

Bible institute has started, study, study, study. One thing I keep thinking though is, Lord use me. Like I'm sitting around waiting on him to say, "It's your time James."

Waiting on a sign like He didn't already come down and die for me, then rise again, as if my breathing each new day isn't sign enough for me.

Looking for that experience, you see some people talk about what God has done for them and they start crying at the beauty of it, the awesome power of God in their lives.

It's not that I don't have a moment where God pulled me through a difficulty, but it doesn't seem to get me like it does them and sometimes it makes me wonder if there is more coming, if I haven't had that moment yet that really turns things around, like Saul on the road to Damascus.

I used to sit around and think things like, "God use me," "Draw me to you Lord," "burden me for the lost."

The reality I see now, so clearly is this,if you recognize a need, are you already burdened. If you are asking God to put something on your heart, isn't it already on your heart?

Get off the couch and go do what you know God is calling you to do. Don't ask for a burden, be burdened!

I'm putting God first and James second.
