Day 16 & 17, May

God Uses What Others Throw Away

And the Lord said to him, Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the dumb, or the deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and will teach you what you shall say. Exodus 4:11-12

God purposely calls people to serve Him who don't know how to do what He tells them to do. His tool chest is full of weak individuals who can't seem to do things right, " cracked pots" whom the world treats with contempt (1 Corinthians 1:28)

But God knows that these individuals will depend on Him and will pray, "Lord, help me," " so that no mortal man should (have pretense for glorying and boast in the presence of God"
(1 Corinthians 1:29).

Qualify yourself for God's tool chest today by telling someone what you have seen God do in your life.













God Enables Us

It is through Him that we have received grace (God's unmerited favor) and (our) apostleship to promote obedience to the faith and make disciples for His name's sake among all the nations, and this includes you, called of Jesus Christ and invited (as you are) to belong to Him. Romans 1:5-6

God gives us beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness

Isaiah 61:3
To give to those who mourn in Zion,
Joy and gladness instead of grief,
A song of praise instead of sorrow.
They will be like trees
That the Lord himself has planted.
They will all do what is right,
And God will be praised for what he has done.

God gives us whatever we need to be victorious. Because He enables us, we credit Him for all the good things in our lives.

Get up today and do the best you can, and then let God do the rest. Don't try to make mistakes, don't try to fail; but when you do, repent and get things straight with God. If you need to apologize to somebody, go and apologize. Receive your forgiveness, and go on.
