YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AMAZING, JUST OBEDIENT

If you're assuming God's work is for others who have more natural gifting & skills... ~ ...That it's not your mission to evangelize - to share God's love through your speech/conversations, your writing/posting, and through love in action - you are missing His sweet plan to work through YOU. ~ We are ALL called to this, we all share this purpose. It's just a little hard to remember when we fall into the trap of comparison. 'Well, he is amazing at that, so I'll leave it to ....... (Insert name here).' ~ NO-ONE is actually good enough to represent Jesus, but we are all invited into it. ~ How do you build up the courage in the absence of perfection? ~ The only thing you can do with certainty is "Place yourself in the proper position where God's almighty power will flow through you." Theologian, Oswald Chambers. ~ What is that proper position? ` • Quit assuming he doesn't want to use you ` • Stop telling God all the reasons you're not good enough for the task ` • Wake up every day and tell God you will be obedient to His design for your life ` • Open your bible and expect Him to guide you. Choose to be teachable and responsive to His shaping of you ` • Moment-by-moment, surrender to His plan to work through you. ~ God will use you if you are willing. And, as Oswald says, "The more feeble and weak you are, the better". ~
