I am refining and sharpening you as an arrow that I can fire straight and true into the hearts of those you encounter day to day. I am making you to be an instrument of my love, piercing their hearts with my truth, with my life.
The discomfort and squeezing you feel as I hone and shape you are so that you can be fired without resistance to move freely to fly straight. I am creating responsiveness in your heart so that you do not deviate from the path.
Do not resist the pull as I create momentum. As an archer pulls the bow back to his chest, I am pulling you in close so you can hear and respond to my heart whispers.
Trust my ability to select the target. Do not question it; Know that my aim is true, and my timing is perfect.
Isaiah 49:2 (NIV)
He made my mouth like a sharpened sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in his quiver.
Exodus 33:19 (NIV)
And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on who I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
