NOT OUR ABILITY, BUT OUR AVAILABILITY

It is by God's grace that our feet don't lose contact with the path we set out to follow. We say, 'Here I am, Lord' when He calls. He calls continually to the willing and the unwilling. It is not so much our ability He has need of, but our availability.

Jesus stands on the shore and whistles
for his people to respond, wave upon
wave. He calls them to bind the
broken-hearted, and build up waste places.

I see a Man walking by the seashore,
whistling gently to the waves of those
who will come to restore the ruined
places, who're crying,

'PREPARE THE WAY!
Prepare the way, Prepare the way.
Prepare the way for the Lord!'
