Have you ignored it? Have you put it off? That’s
God’s voice calling you to do His good work.
May’s
Awakening, Day 21
The Lord doesn’t ask about your
ability, only your availability; and, if you prove your dependability, the Lord
will increase your capability.
—Author Unknown
God doesn’t call the equipped, he
equips the called.

No man was ever honored for what he
received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.
—Calvin Coolidge
Now
may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought
back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you
with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing
to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. Hebrews
13:20–21 NIV
From the foundation of time, God has
prepared good works for you to do. Furthermore, God will thoroughly equip you
with everything necessary to complete those good works in exemplary fashion. It
is His pleasing will to do so and nothing will circumvent that—nothing, that
is, except for you. You must make yourself available to do what God has
prepared for you and called you to do. It is easy to make excuses and say, “No,
I don’t have the time, I don’t have the ability, and I don’t have the resources
to do that.” Well, God certainly has chosen you to do that and I don’t think
His choice was in error. He will allow you to redeem the time, equip every
ability needed, and provide every resource required. He just needs a “yes,
Lord” from you. Don’t ignore the voice and call of God in your life to step out
and do His good work.
