Being prepared to hit the target
"…Before I was born the Lord called me; from my birth He has made mention of my name. He made my mouth like a sharpened sword; in the shadow of His hand He hid me; He made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in His quiver. He said to me 'You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will display my splendor…." Isaiah 49:1 and following…(read whole chapter). (NIV)
Are you feeling that God has forgotten about you in His quiver of arrows?
Or that you are raw from all the polishing? If so, may the Holy Spirit comfort
your heart by reminding you that all of this waiting, polishing and being
hidden is to prepare you for just the right timing when He wants to take you
out of His quiver in order to hit the bull's-eye that He has for YOU! See
the rest of Is. 49 to see how else He might encourage you through this passage.
