Challenge

Like Isaiah we live in an uncertain, pain-filled world. We know sometimes

that being sent by God won’t be easy, but we’d challenge you to start

praying for God to send you. Maybe you already know where you’re being

sent to and it’s a matter of taking up your courage, or maybe you have

no idea. Ask God for wisdom, courage, and vision. Pray “Send me” and

see what happens!
