I marveled at what the scene must have looked like. Over a million people waiting at the foot of Mt. Sinai for Moses to return. He couldn't possibly know every one of them, but they of course knew him. He's been up on the mountain a long time. God tells him that He's prepared and gifted two guys in that large crowd with the artistry and engineering skills needed to produce everything He's already described. Not just for metalwork and carpentry, but even in weaving cloth! And He's already filled one of them with the Spirit of God! Those two guys are back in the crowd at the base of the mountain. They probably have no idea that their names are about to be called. Some of the items they'll make will be around for millennia! Somewhere on this planet today, the Ark of the Covenant likely still exists! And yet they have no clue that God's about to use them.
Our lives may be right on the cusp, too. God may have prepared us to meet someone today or tomorrow and turn their heart towards Him so that He can change the world again. It's not about our
ability, but about our
availability. Will we be ready and willing? He'll
make us able.
Your Brother In Christ,
