Answer The Call!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! There is a call that we are all to answer. When a phone rings anywhere it is hard for me to ignore it. My first instinct is to answer and see who it is that is calling. Today, we have caller ID which helps us identify who the caller is before we answer so that if we don't want to talk we don't have to. This can be a good thing or a bad. When we answer the call the mystery is solved, we talk, find out the reason the person called and move on. However, what about our call from God. I hear so many people say they are running from something but not sure what it is. I think deep down they really do know. I ran from my calling for a long time because I was afraid of what it meant for my life. How much would it change....would I be okay with that change...would my friends accept me if the change was weird. So many thoughts run through our minds, so many worries that really once you accept the call and find out what it is all about, doesn't seem that worrisome anymore. We won't know until we take the call. When I finally accepted the call, my life has been richer and happier than I could ever imagined. The "something" that was missing is not missing anymore. I am reading a book for our book club called The Faith Club. This is an excert from it.... "Each and every one of us is called by God. All of us are asked to stand up and be counted, to lead a life worthy of God's respect. Moses was afraid of the challenge God presented to him. But he rose to that challenge. And that's what all the rest of us have to do in life- answer the call of God, rise to the occasion, and accept whatever challenges we face." 'The Faith Club'. Is your phone ringing today? Has is been ringing for a while now and you were just afraid to answer? You don't have to be afraid...he has not called you to do something that he has not already cleared the way for. You just have to trust and step into, surrender and began to walk in it. Be Blessed in Your Calling...Pick up the phone...it's time!
