The Divine Essence of Nature
Isaiah 6:8
I perceived the auditory manifestation of the divine being, proclaiming: "To whom shall I dispatch, and who will undertake the mission on behalf of our collective entity?" Isaiah 6:8
When discussing the divine summons, we frequently overlook the main aspect: the inherent characteristics of the One issuing the call. Various obligations and responsibilities are demanding our attention today. Certain calls will receive responses, while others will go unnoticed. The call is the manifestation of the inherent characteristics of the individual who initiates it, and our ability to perceive and acknowledge the call is contingent upon possessing those same characteristics within ourselves. The call of God is the manifestation of God's inherent essence, rather than our own. The threads of God's call are intricately woven through our lives by divine providence, and it is only our responsibility to discern them. Divine communication occurs when God directly addresses us regarding a certain matter, rendering it futile to solicit the viewpoints of others. We should maintain utmost confidentiality in our interactions with the divine summons, limiting them solely to ourselves and God.
The divine summons is independent of my inherent characteristics; my individual inclinations and disposition hold no significance. If I continue to focus solely on my own attributes and contemplate my aptitude, I will remain oblivious to the divine summons. However, once God establishes a proper connection between Himself and me, I will find myself in a state similar to that of Isaiah. Isaiah's profound connection with God was a result of the intense ordeal he had recently experienced, allowing him to deeply internalize God's calling. Most of us are only capable of perceiving our own voices. We are unable to perceive any auditory communication from God. However, being led to the point where we can perceive the divine summons results in a profound transformation.
