But you are A chosen race, A royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. -1 Peter 2:9
Do you ever feel like God can’t use you? You’re not the only one.
Jacob was a cheater.
Peter had a temper.
David had an affair.
Noah got drunk.
Jonah ran from God.
Paul was a murderer.
Gideon was insecure.
Miriam was a gossiper.
Martha was a worrier.
Thomas was a doubter.
Sara was impatient.
Elijah was moody.
Moses stuttered.
Zaccheus was short.
Abraham was old.
and Lazarus was dead.
All of these people at one time or another felt as if they were completlely inadequate to do anything the Lord was calling them to do. However, we don’t know them because of these things. We know them because despite these things, they did great and mighty things for the Kingdom of God.
So, what are you called to do? Do it!
Prayer: “God, thank you for showing in your word all the imperfect people that you used perfectly. Use me for what you want to accomplish on this earth. In your name I pray, Amen.”
