God wants to use you!
Many have bought into the fallacy that God doesn't want to use them because they aren't ____________ fill in the blank here. Or they don't have it all together!
_
The truth is that God does want to use you just as He used ordinary people in the past.
_
Don't believe me? Well, look no further than people such as, David, Peter, and Paul and more! All were ordinary and imperfect people yet God used them mightily.
_
One was a shepherd boy, another was fisherman, and another was previously a full on persecutor of the church.
_
None of these servant had it all together and some failed miserably but He still used them and even in the case of David, who went from a shepherd boy to King, even with His failings, He is still stated as a man after God's own heart.
_
God transformed, empowered and used these imperfect people. Note, they weren't some kind of "Christian Celebrities"who sometimes overshadow The One they are called to serve, again, they were everyday, imperfect people that God chose to use. You don't have to be a celebrity to be used by God or to serve Him!
_
No matter where you've come from, if you're in Christ God wants to use you for His kingdom and glory! Don't every forget that The Creator of the universe wants to use you for who you are and where you are because God wants to use ordinary people. The question is, will we get over ourselves, get over the hurdles and walls we erect which get in the way of Him using us and actually allow Him to use us for His kingdom and glory?!
_
I pray that we will allow Him to use us and that we'd worship or extraordinary King and Master Who has a purpose and plan for us no matter what!
