My friend, if you are willing, that means you have a heart prepared to go and do what others may not be willing to do.  You see the possibilities and enthusiastically embrace and receive what may be ahead simply because the Master wants to use you.

Willingness for what?  Ah, my friend, only you can answer that question because only you can know the call you have been hearing or the pull in a certain direction that you have been feeling.  But it is not until the feet of faith have moved to the fulfillment of those things does your willingness shine through.

And shine you will.  For those who respond to God’s drawing in to follow and fulfill – that one, moving in obedience, shines, for “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” Matthew 5:14, 16.

That three-letter word “let” is asking for your permission to be allowed to be used by Him.  It’s asking are you willing?  Are you ready to respond in the affirmative with a steadfast “Yes”?

Second Corinthians 9:7 reminds us that God loves a cheerful giver.  Stretch that possibility beyond the gathering of an offering to be worked out in our everyday lives.  Are we cheerfully giving of ourselves?  Are we allowing the Master to use us as vessels fit for the job, “prepared unto every good work” 2 Timothy 2:21?

Many are agreeable in tongue, but has our willingness reached the point of being ready, pliable, and active in services to our King?  Paul implored the Roman church, and us, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” Romans 12:1.

Are you willing?
