In the Scriptures, we find God calling people to participate with Him in His purposes. He puts His hand on the life of a man or woman and shapes them into a “polished arrow” in His hands. Isaiah became that polished arrow. He saw God which led to his shaping by God, resulting in his sending by God. But often we miss that middle step. We see God and quickly rush as fast as we can through the shaping part so we can go and do amazing things for Him. But we will regret it if we miss being shaped.
