Here I Am Lord !

Good Morning – January 29,2026

Morning thoughts that the Holy Spirit is speaking into me this morning.

I will have a more centered devotional a little later or maybe tomorrow.

I spent the late hours of last night helping a fellow Pastor find shelter for someone who had no place to stay the night.

I’m thankful for Gail who kept checking on me and prayed while I was driving all over the county – in the dark cold hours -2 of last night.

I’m thankful that when someone needs help someone answers. Most of the time?

This was after I watched 300 meals go out from the church to this weekly feeding meal.

This was after I experience how dedicated individuals are sharing of their time in an afterschool program. How in places where there was once nothing there are Sunday School programs, youth ministries, and Bible studies taking place around kitchen tables.

This is after I heard the confession of a young woman say I need to stop drinking and using and get my life back together.

This is after I with the help of our office staff checked on someone who was not responding to calls.

This is after praying with someone who is nearing the end of their earthly life.

This is after paying for someone’s groceries who had no money —

This is after preparing to help a family and community grieve through the loss of friend and loved one.

This is after having conversation with a group of people about Kingdom Multiplication –

But what about the why? For me and hope you see this – is for the Glory of God. Everything that I have done and all that I ever hope to be for God’s glory!

And as I prepared to sleep in the early morning hours – I read scripture – I prayed – I prayed for forgiveness of my sins, for when I have hurt another – of when I feel abandoned – of the hope I have in what God wants to do – not what I want – for what I want God to do for me but what God wants me to do for Him. I prayed for those who feel rejected, I prayed for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to be realized in the Church, I prayed for those who are cold physically and spiritually, I prayed for those who are hungry physically and spiritually, I prayed for break through, I prayed for those who are searching that they might find Jesus or see Jesus living in me !

Then and now I am listening !

If God had not changed my life – I would be ……………………

What about you? Is it all for you? Or is it for the One who rescued you from sin and hell?

Think on this verse Matthew 25:45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
