If He calls you answer

For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God” (1 Corinthians 1:26-29) Perhaps you are like me. I feel and know I'm not qualified. I find it hard to believe that God would call one such as me! Then I was Reminded of this truth. “God doesn’t call the qualified; he qualifies the called.” Did you know that Moses had a speech impediment? He gave every excuse and begged God to use someone else instead when God called him to lead (Exodus 4). Abraham lived the first part of his life in the Ur of the Chaldees, a country steeped in polytheism. Not exactly the best prep to become the patriarch of the people of God, right? The Apostle Paul, before his conversion, actively persecuted and killed followers of Christ. King David was an adulterer and murderer and a liar . Jonah ran from where God called him to go. The list goes on and on. So if God is calling you! You are in good company. Perhaps this will help? God does need us but invites us to be apart of what He is doing. My earthly father would invite me to help him. I later found out, it was to spend time with him. God wants to spend time with you! He will prepare you to do the good works He gives you to do. Father be glorified in all that we do for your name sake! Whether it is to be a teacher of the Word. Bring glory to His name. Whether it is to be a parent, a spouse, a friend, the janitor, or a part of the parking lot team. Do it all unto the Lord. Bring honor and glory to Him and not your flesh! Choose today to bring honor or shame to His Holy name. Your actions speak louder than words!
