Be Available

Available:  The word is defined as suitable or ready for use; of use or service; at hand: I used whatever tools were available. 2. readily obtainable; accessible: available resources...

 We need to be available for God. Too often we allow our fear or personal agenda and focus to make us unavailable to God’s call and service. We excuse ourselves from committing ourselves to a course of service and action for God because we aren’t ready to make such a decision or move. It could be business or family or perhaps even fear that keeps us from being available to God. (See Matthew 8).  God seeks those willing to answer His call; those who make themselves fit and available for service to Him. Too often, negative thinking or the influences of Satan cause us to doubt; to think we think we are not worthy or prepared. God has called all who have committed their faith to Him to also make themselves available to serve. There are many opportunities to serve. Perhaps you’ve already heard the call. Have you made yourself available?

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
Isaiah 6:8
