Ever felt like you weren’t qualified?
I can remember praying something like, “God, I just want to be USED by You!”
But then, who would want to hear MY story… a gangly girl who lived most of her life on a DIRT road, with a dozen reasons why I wasn’t good enough?
What could I do?
Isn’t that what we do when we base what IS GOING to happen on what has ALREADY happened.
But, we can’t judge God’s FUTURE plans for us by what the enemy has done to us, in the PAST.
Your DIVORCE? God’s bigger!
They LEFT? God’s got better!
Got FIRED? God is a restorer!
Surprised yourself with how BAD you acted? God’s a forgiver!
God had a plan, all along, to use our life, our struggles and insecurities to help other people make sense of theirs.
Who knew, this bullied and intimidated little girl would ever have the courage to stand up in front of a crowd and speak?
Who knew, this humiliated teenager would be able to share her most embarrassing moments with total strangers?
And who knew, this abused and battered woman would ever trust enough to step into a new relationship with a godly man?
God knew… that’s WHO!
And He has even more for you!
When we trust Him, God will take us from feeling “not enough,” to BECOMING more than enough!
And I promise you, whatever God is doing IN you, right now, is greater than any stupid stunt the devil ever tried to pull to stop you!
Just because you feel like you’ve been running on EMPTY doesn’t mean that you’re finished. It doesn’t mean that your race is over!
The rest of our lives is going to be the BEST of our lives! And like me… you’re just GETTING STARTED!
