Ezra 1: 5 Then
the family heads of Judah and Benjamin, and
the priests and Levites—everyone whose heart God had moved—prepared to go up and build the house of
the Lord in
Jerusalem.
============
Stuffing my feet under the chair to hide my holey shoes wasn’t
good enough to not be seen. My fraternity brother noticed me and the next
meeting brought me a pair of his shoes. I now had one and a half pairs of shoes.
Sitting on the trunk of my broken down car in the dark in
the middle of nowhere, an elderly couple stopped and picked me up. They did not
look like me or know why I was on my trunk. They asked “Do you know GOD?” I
could feel their prayers as they dropped me off at the rest area five miles
away.
- Sometimes things look dim.
- Sometimes things look grim.
- Sometimes things look pitiful.
When things were finally out of my control and there was
nowhere to turn, GOD stirred someone’s heart to provide something I needed. I
hadn’t even prayed for the thing I needed yet GOD saw fit to provide it to me
anyway.
- GOD wants my heart to be open for HIS bidding.
- GOD wants my heart to be open for HIS will.
- GOD wants my heart to be open so HE can execute HIS wonderful plan HE has for me.
GOD wants to use me in marvelous ways, if I’m willing. When
the clouds of life are in the way I cannot seem to see the SON. BUT GOD clears
my path, dusts me off and now it’s my turn to help others. GOD moves my heart.
- Are you open to GOD moving your heart?
- Are you willing to listen to HIM?
- Will you show compassion on “that person?”
- Can you be a blessing to someone today?
