Isaiah 6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”
4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
What an honor it is to be chosen by God to spread His love to this world. When you have an encounter with the living God of the universe, the one who spoke and the world lept into existence there is the reaction of the above verses. We come to realize the holiness of God makes us feel unworthy, but as you read it is God Himself who takes away our sin, and guilt. The next thing that happens is God chooses you and I to go for Him. This dosen't necesarily mean to the end of the earth, but it starts right where you are. Trusting and believing God that He Himself has chosen and cleansed you to be His hands and feet and mouth in this hurting and dying world. You must say to God " Here am I. Send Me!"
A couple other scriptures that are on my heart:
We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.
Matthew 9:37
Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
Luke 14:23

Please listen to the song below and follow along with the lyrics, this song inspired me to write this blog.
Envíame a mí
La mies es mucha, hay gran necesidad
y pocos obreros al campo van
hoy muchos se pierden, viven sin dirección
vagan como ovejas sin pastor.
Heme aquí envíame a mi
yo iré por aquellos que vagan sin ti
Heme aquí envíame a mi
yo iré por aquellos que vagan sin ti
envíame a mi
yo iré.
Send Me
The harvest is much, the need is great
And few workers are going out to the fields
Today many are lost, living without direction
They wander like sheep without a shepherd
I'm here, send me
I'll go to those that wander without you
I'm here, send me
I'll go to those that wander without you
Send me
I will go
