I am lways the initiater12/16/2023 ![]() Perhaps you needed to take a break and never came back. ![]() We too are missing out on how God wants to use you. If you’re not serving right now, you’re missing out on so much. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.” You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. John 15:1–4 (NKJV) ““I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. ![]() I’ll never forget how my dad used to encourage me to overcome my insecurity upon entering a room full of people I wanted to be my friends. And the best way to do that is to start looking for people who need friends. God made a free will choice to send a ‘great’ fish after him! While we will not be swallowed up by a fish, we will be led, guided, and helped by God to be where we need to be doing what He wants us to do! Isn’t that amazing?! For starters, I think you need to lower your sights from a whole group of fast friends to one or two. Jonah made a free will choice to run away. If you question that thought just consider the work of God surrounding Jonah. He can arrange for you and me to be exactly where He wants us. It’s easy to take something so gloriously, like the sovereign leading of the Lord and make it a burden as if we will miss it. I know there is this burden that many carry as they worry about what they are supposed to do. Jeremiah 33:3 (NKJV) “‘Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’ You are doing things that are far greater than the span of your life can contain, because God the Initiator has called you and is using you today! God is ready to use you and when He enlists you in ministry, the work you do at church, at home, in your neighborhood, at your job all makes an eternal difference. He is always the Initiator-which means that He is drawing people into service, and sending them out to serve. Less frequent texts, could never pin down a date to meet, radio silence.this is like the fourth person who has done this in the past couple years. When it comes to Christian service, God will let you know what you need to do.
