Do Not Disturb

God does not choose people because of their ability, but because of their availability.” Brother Andrew

You need quiet. You are sleeping in. We all know about the “Do Not Disturb” sign in hotels that we can hang on our door so housekeeping will let us sleep. Older siblings hang a “Private: Keep Out!” sign on their door to escape younger siblings. At work, a co-worker may lock a door, find a quiet area to be alone. Some people like to go for a walk or a drive to be alone.

What about in your Christian walk? Have you hung a “Do Not Disturb” sign so as to not have to pray, read, serve, devote time in God’s word? Are you unavailable in your service to God? Maybe you feel inadequate when it comes to serving God. Join the club. But when God calls us, when He puts an idea to serve in your mind, don’t pass the idea on to someone else. God has chosen you! Instead of worrying if you have the right gifts, be available. Be willing. Take that step of faith. Let God use you in His service, for your good and His glory.

Hebrews 13:20-21 “Now may the God of peace… may He equip you with all you need for doing His will. May He produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to Him. All glory to Him forever and ever! Amen.”
