I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. - Ezekiel 36:26Dipping my heart back into the idea of ministry opens a world of possibilities. I've been parked for quite some time now, walking through a season of dryness, silence and preparation.
Feeling reluctant for months, I think it may be time to take that step. Full-force in carefree abandonment ... propelling forward off of the next great precipice always gets my blood pumping.
I think about the people who will join me - individuals I have a love for long before even meeting them face-to-face. Coming together for a common purpose ... my heart leaps with thoughts of what will be accomplished.
For eyes that land here today, I humbly ask for prayer. A step out onto the deep requires a lot of courage on my part. The wind and the waves can be so noisy.
God made us for ministry. What burns in your heart? How have you been gifted? What is it that you can't stand to see go unheeded?
I will pray for you too - that God reveals that special place of purpose for you. We all have work to do.
And Kingdom work requires nothing less than all.
