A calling. What is it? How do you know when it happens to
you? How do you explain the call of God to someone else?
How do you justify decisions that look so bizarre to
someone operating only in the realm of worldly logic?
When the God who made the universe reaches down into your
life and starts playing with the details and whispering
your name it certainly makes you stop and think. In my
discipleship training I was taught that God is both
infinite and personal. Not a Western god, who made it all,
set it in motion and now watches dispassionately "from a
distance". Not an Eastern god; one of many who are said to
have their own soap operas going and who delight in toying
with the lives of men. But one, loving, powerful God, who
for some wonderful reason really cares about me and what I
do with my life.
