—Ezekiel 11:24 NIV

Through the work of the Holy Spirit, God will get his messengers to the places they need to be — both physically and spiritually. He will give them the words to say. He will empower them and make them bold. So what is our part in this mysterious work of God's grace?
Today's Prayer
God of all grace, I know that you supply every gift that your church family has. Help me to find my gifts, use them, and bless others through them, and may my use of these gifts bring you glory. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
