The quote for today is from Isaiah:
“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’ And I said, ‘Here am I. Send me!’” (Isaiah 6:8).
Some questions change everything. They don’t just seek an answer—they seek a heart willing to respond. Today’s verse is one of those questions.
Imagine a parent calling into a crowd of children, “Who will help me?” A hush falls. One small head turns. Tiny feet race forward. “I will!” No questions about the task. No weighing the cost. Just a heart eager to say yes—not because of what’s asked, but because of who is asking.
That’s the scene in Isaiah’s vision—heaven’s throne room, fiery angels, a trembling prophet. God doesn’t demand or command; He simply asks, “Whom shall I send?” Unlike Moses, who protested his speech. Unlike Jonah, who ran. Unlike Gideon, who needed signs. Isaiah doesn’t stall or second-guess. He just answers. Raw. Immediate. “Here am I. Send me.”
God still asks that question today. Not to the angels, but to you. To me. To the single mom exhausted from sleepless nights. To the retiree wondering if their best days are behind them. To the teenager unsure of their place in this world. To the executive drowning in busyness. God calls—not the qualified, but the willing. His call isn’t reserved for the resumé-ready. He doesn’t require ability, just availability. Isaiah didn’t know the where or how of his mission. He just knew the Who.
Perhaps you’ve felt that nudge—a whisper to serve, forgive, speak up, or step out. Maybe you’ve hesitated, thinking, I’m not ready. Not good enough. Not brave enough. But God’s invitations aren’t about your capacity—they’re about His. Moses had a stutter. David was a shepherd. Esther was an orphan. Yet their “Here am I” changed history.
When you hear His voice—in the quiet, in the chaos—don’t overthink it. Just answer. Because when God calls, He also walks beside you.
I’m Lonnie Davis, and these are thoughts worth thinking.
