Good afernoon girlz!!! I am getting so much done today! I love it! Such a great feeling!
S - Luke 14:23-24 "And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled. For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.’”
O - All those who were extended a "real" invitation gave excuses. Because no one accepted the invite the man began inviting anyone he could find on the street to come and dine with him. What excuses am I holding on to? What is keeping me from ministery or saying yes to the Lord's calling?
A - I think there are plenty of excuses I give. Probably more than I am even aware of. Sometimes it's fear that causes me to decline, or just feelings of inadequacy, or that someone else would be so much better at the job than I would. Whatever the excuse, the important thing to remember is that God extended the invitation to me. He is asking me to come. He wants me to join Him. I don't want to miss out!
P - Lord, open my eyes to the excuses I give. I want to be a part of what You are doing.
I'm really good at excuses. Sometimes I think if I spent all my energy on what God wanted me to do instead of thinking of excuses I would get his work done really fast!!!
