Isaiah 6:8-9
“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!” He said, “Go and tell this people: “ ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’”
Isaiah 6:8-9 NIV
What an honor we have been given to have the gospel, the Word of God, to share that, to proclaim that on behalf of God to people right around us today, and to people all around the world. We have been sent by God. God help us to be faithful in that. And secondly, to realize and remember that no matter what we say apart from the power of the spirit of God, to open eyes and open hearts. We cannot bring people to a relationship with God. Only God can do that by the power of His spirit. The Body of Christ, which is the Church, has been chosen by God to be His permanent dwelling place, throughout time and into the eternal ages to come, for our bodies are a temple of the living God and the Spirit of God dwells within each one of us. If we were truly to catch one glimpse of the awesome nature of this reality, we would be forever stripped of all our own vain-glories, self-importance, pride, presumption, and arrogance. But too often, those that have been saved by grace through faith in Christ are glaringly ignorant of the incalculably, privileged position we hold. If we really came to terms with the reality of the position we hold as the dwelling place of the most high God, we would also prostrate our humbled being before His Holy Presence, and whisper with Isaiah, "Lord, here am I, send me."When God asked "whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Without hesitation, Isaiah said "here am I Lord, send me"! God is still asking this question today “whom shall I send and who will go for us?" In other words, God is asking "who is willing to be my volunteer"? I am in need of many throughout the world. Who will go? Who shall I send? God is calling volunteers to work in heaven's earthly vineyard called the world. Have you heard Him calling you by name? People everywhere are hurting, wounded, confused, depressed, fearful, full of uncertainty and lots of questions and desperate for answers, healing and most of all the peace that only God can offer through Christ. One of the greatest needs of our day is spirit filled men and women who are willing to carry the torch of Christ Gospel to this dying world. God does his work in the earth through man. The cry for volunteers in the Kindgom is being heard around the world!!!

If we truly believe in what we are learning then we should be motivated to do our part in helping others better draw closer to our Heavenly Father, and this really should be out of love, compassion, to please God .
