The Lord now sends us forth with hands to serve and give, to make of all the earth a better place to live. The angels are not sent into our world of pain to do what we were meant to do in Jesus' name; that falls to you and me and all who are made free, Help us, O Lord, we pray, to do your will today. ("The Lord Now Sends Us Forth" - Text: Anonymous. Central America; tr. Gerhard M. Cartford, b. 1923)

Mark 5.21-43-Immediately the girl got up and began to walk...
2 Samuel 14-"Help, O king."
Daniel 8-When I, Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it...
Isaiah 65.1-9-I said, "Here am I, here am I."

Go! Do My will!

There comes a time when I must go and do the will You have for me to do.
There comes a time when I must rise from the dead, with Your breath of Life in me and walk.
There comes a time when I hear Your advice and council that I must go and do.
There comes a time when after hearing Your explanation to the vision that I go and do.
There comes a time when I stand up for You and say "Here am, I, send me!"
There comes a time....and that is now.

Lord, You teach me, You heal me, You explain visions, You breath Life into me, You choose me and You send me to do Your will. Here am I...I go---Amen
