Everyone wants to know their calling, but very few people are willing to say yes before they know what it is. When God asked, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Isaiah did not ask for details or wait until he felt ready. He answered with surrender: “Here am I Lord. Send me.” Calling does not begin with perfect clarity. It begins with a heart that is willing to obey. God is not searching for impressive people. He is looking for people who are available.

(An entry from Grace and Truth Magazine, written by Halie Asmus) Habbukuk 2:1-3 1 I will stand on my guard post, And station myself on the rampart; And I will keep watch to see what He will speak to me, And how I may reply when I am reproved. 2 Then the Lord answered me and said, “Record the vision And inscribe it on tablets,That the one who reads it may run. 3 For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hastens toward the goal and it will not fail. Though it tarries, wait for it; For it will certainly come, it will not delay. The Ache of Waiting We have all been in seasons of waiting. Whether that be waiting for a spouse, waiting for prodigals to come home, waiting for business deals to land, or waiting for doors to open. The scripture says a longing unfulfilled, or hope deferred, makes the heart sick. You see it, you feel it, you’ve experienced it. You know exactly what I am talking about. Habakkuk knows all too well about this too. A Prophet Who Wrestled With God Habakkuk was a prophet who lived in Judah, Israel’s southern kingdom. Habakkuk, although a prophet, is unique in the sense that he didn’t speak to Israel on behalf of God. Instead, his writings are written dialogue of his conversation with the Lord, written as poetry. Habakkuk struggled with trusting that God was good with all of the corruption of the world. He also struggled with trusting that God’s promises would be fulfilled. Waiting in the Middle of the Promise Through the book, we see that Babylon shall both rise and fall. That justice would prevail, and God’s promises remain. Habakkuk begins to wrestle with this because he has not yet seen any indication of the Lord’s promises being fulfilled. He was in that waiting season. The season that seems to drag on and is full of lamentation. The season that begins to feel like God cannot be trusted, or that perhaps you did not hear God correctly. The Weight of the Vision In Chapter two, God tells Habakkuk to write the vision down and make it plain. In Hebrew, this reads as chazon (חָזוֹן), meaning to see, a divinely inspired revelation, something God initiates and releases, not something Habakkuk imagines or invents. Then God says the vision is for an appointed time, moed (מוֹעֵד), meaning a fixed, scheduled, set moment. It is the same word used for feast days and holy appointments, which tells us God already locked in the moment this will unfold.
