Who?

Our question for today comes from Isaiah 6:8.

“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?'”

Isaiah 6:8 gives us one of the most beautiful moments in Scripture. After a breathtaking vision of God’s glory, after trembling in the presence of holiness, after being touched by mercy, and after having his sins forgiven, Isaiah heard the question.

“Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”

God didn’t demand. He didn’t draft Isaiah into service. He asked.

It was a question not born out of need, but out of love. God could have thundered commands. Instead, He whispered an invitation.

Isaiah, newly forgiven and freshly awakened, stood up and said, “Here I am. Send me.”

That’s all God needed. A willing heart.

He still asks today. Not just in churches or pulpits—but in coffee shops, office breakrooms, neighborhoods, and nursing homes. He looks for hearts that will say, “Here I am.” Not perfect ones. Not polished ones. Just willing ones.

Is there someone in your life who needs a word of hope? A helping hand? A listening ear? That may be your mission field.

Just listen for the whisper.

I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.
