On The Lord's Errand

I've noticed something really quite interesting to me. When you are on the Lord's errand, I have found that He will give you those things that you need that are for your service to Him and to assist you in your own life.

I didn't have a single allergy attack today. I spent 2 hours at a hometeachee's house with their long haired dog: nothing; an hour a another house with two dogs: nothing; 2-3 hours at another house with 3 cats and a ferrett: a little throat constriction.

I, normally, am only able to stay at this 3rd house for 20-30 minutes before I have to leave because my allergies are acting up so badly. I'm usualy ok with that for a while longer if I've dosed up on antihistamine. I didn't have any antihistamine today.

When you are on the Lord's errand He won't let anything stop you from doing what He wants you to do. He will put you in the right place and the right time to help His children in their hours of need.

He will prompt you and whisper in your ears, and if you are willing to listen and heed the words, you will have more success and do more for good in one day than you will be able to do in 7 months (or more) without Him.

Don't ignore the whisper. Make the u-turn, make the phone call, drop by for a sparatic visit, whatever you have to do, just listen. You will never have known that kind of joy, as when you are in the service of your fellow men and doing His good work.

Lead kindly light, amid the encircling gloom. Lead, Thou, me on.
