People get confused by the idea of prayer. Some wait for a blatant answer, a divine yea or nay message to be the answer to whatever was prayerfully asked.
Do you think God works that way?
Check out this clip from the movie Evan Almighty and consider the idea of opportunity. (Pardon the foreign subtitles, it was the only version of the clip we could find.)
When you ask God for direction with your spiritual gifts, does He hand you a stack of envelopes and say "Stuff these?" Will he drive you to choir practice? Or do you suddenly become more aware of the need for office help or choir members?
Today, challenge yourself to stop looking for concrete, black and white answers and instead, open yourself to the possibility of opportunity. Where are there opportunities to serve that God is nudging you towards?
