“Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, ‘Go south to the road -- the desert road -- that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.’ So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch,… This man had gone to Jerusalem to worship, and on his way home was sitting in his chariot reading the Book of Isaiah the prophet. The Spirit told Philip, ‘Go to that chariot and stay near it.’ Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. ‘Do you understand what you are reading?’ Philip asked. ‘How can I,’ he said, ‘unless someone explains it to me?’ So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him… Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.”  (Excerpts from Acts 8:26-35 NIV)

My life is in your hands, Lord.  Like Philip, use me to point someone toward You today -- I promise to cooperate in any way I can.  If you want me to say a word for You today, by Your Spirit’s guidance I will.  If you want me to keep quiet but demonstrate love and servanthood, by Your Spirit's power I will.  I'm fully available to You today, so guide me and empower me by Your Spirit to share the good news of Your great love.
