Draw the Circle - Day 22 - Prayer Fleece

"I will place a wool fleece on the threshing floor." - Judges 6:37

God calls.

Not just pastors.  Not just Bible characters.

God calls you.

God is calling you.

Are you listening?

What makes your heart sing?

For some of you, the call may take you to an exotic locale.  For others, God is calling you to mission and ministry right here in Harford County.

When God calls, He also confirms.

He's not offended, when we ask for a double-check.  Gideon used fleece.  Anna, in today's devotional, used a talk dark Serbian.

So listen and discern.  Your life will not be complete until you are "laboring" in the Vineyard that God has planted for you.

Don't be afraid to listen.

You will find great joy when you align your life to God's will for you.

I asked - what makes your heart sing?

In science, I learned about something called "natural frequency."  Objects will begin to oscillate when a force is applied that matches the frequency with which they like to vibrate.

You have a spiritual frequency - to a place, to a people, to a task.  When you read or hear about this person, place or thing, your heart begins to vibrate, your ears perk up, maybe a tear comes.  

Don't ignore these moments.  They are signposts given by God.

Then put down a fleece. Confirm it. Then ACT.
