In this episode, we share some practical lessons God is teaching us about calling. The bible is full of real examples of people who trusted God as they walked out His purposes and plans for their lives. Habakkuk couldn't see God's plan as evil prevailed all around Him, but his prayers turned to praise as he waited on the Lord. The words of Moses in the book of Deuteronomy still challenge us today, as they did in Old Testament days, to cut away the things that are hindering and separating us from God. We too have a choice to make - will we follow God, commit to his plans, and walk in His ways - with all of our heart, mind, and soul? We get to choose. God continues to challenge and equip us, as we walk in our true identity and calling. If you've ever experienced a season of struggle, heartache, or absolute blessing in your life, and you've also felt the very near presence of God walking with you through that season - you better believe God wants to use your story to bring encouragement to someone else. You're qualified because you're HIS!
“Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!”
Habakkuk 3:17-18 NLT
Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
