Instruments in the hand of the Lord

Through baptism we set out on the road of being one with Jesus. He became our Lord and Master. We set our course by him and offered our lives to him.
By receiving the word afresh each day we strive to become instruments in his hand. Our greatest hope is that in all the events of the day, in the decisions we make, in the words we speak, the Lord will use us to do his work.
If this is to happen we must be attentive that our own personality, our own tastes do not get in the way.
To be an instrument in the hand of the Lord is our greatest calling, for then the work we do will be his work and the joy we bring will be his. It will be everlasting, building his kingdom within our world.
In preparing to receive his word today we are preparing to live out true vocation in life.
