"Don't Block This Caller"

A fun teacher I experienced at a workshop not long ago advised that to become a better artist we must "draw something everyday". Just like the age old advise, "practice makes perfect". Since that workshop I have tried to carry a sketchbook with me everywhere I go. I use it for everything from taking notes in meetings, to sketching the sermon in pictures on Sunday mornings. And the more I doodle, the more comfortable I feel about rendering our world on paper. I guess it should be no different with our call to serve. The more we practice answering the call and saying yes, the better disciples we become. When we do answer, maybe we are a Glimpse of His Glory.

And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.” Isaiah 6:8
