The Call to do what you already Know

Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other Puah, 16 “When you help the Hebrew women give birth, observe them as they deliver. If the child is a son, kill him, but if it’s a daughter, she may live.” 17 The Hebrew midwives, however,  feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt had told them; they let the boys live.
Ex 1:15-17 (HCSB)

Usually when we talk about God calling us we are looking for the big things.  We are looking for it to be written across the sky in an amazing show of God's direction.  The Hebrew midwives teach us a valuable lesson about God's call.  Most of the time God's call is simply to do what we already know He wants us to do.  They knew what God wanted and because the feared Him they obeyed.

Today seek to do the call of the things you already know He wants for you to do and recognize His divine calling in your life today.
