This Week’s Prompt: Sent

Do you feel sent by God to where you’re living?  What does that mean for you?

For some of us, a calling to a place or a people or just to the nations seemed part of our DNA from the beginning.  We were born to live there.  And for others of us, we had to receive a divine, undeniable sign that yes, in fact, God was sending us to a place we never in a million years would have imagined ourselves actually living.

Where do you fall in the spectrum?

For those who are married, has your sense of being sent by God been equally shared by you and your husband?  Or has one felt it more strongly?  How do you deal with that?

How about the whole dynamic of our lives that involves being sent by people?  Those dear ones that believe in what we’re doing and sacrifice to give so we can be where we are.

How does that affect our lives?  Do you feel a pressure to perform?  To produce results?  How openly do you share with them?

Has anyone else ever not shared your amazing vacation pictures because you felt weird about your supporters seeing that?

What kind of expectations does this put in our lives because we are sent by God and by people?

Clearly, we’ve got a lot to process together this week!

Join us in the conversations happening throughout the week.  Write your own posts about the prompt “Sent” and bring it to link up at The Grove, beginning Thursday 6pm EST.  See you there!
