Care to change your mind?
God is interested in your story, broken as you may be.
Someone needs what you have to share. Please don't give up on yourself. You are mighty valuable to God, and to me.

Jeanette, I heard in a message years ago that if God waited for us to get everything in our lives straightwnef out, He would not have anyone to do His work. He needs someone willing to be used whether they feel ready or not.

ReplyDeleteJeanette: I always liked this thought. It keeps me going in Him. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHi Jeanette! I've seen lists like this before, and they always make me smile. God can use anyone, anytime for his purposes, he will make us equal to the task ahead.
ReplyDeleteI love your encouragement at the end of the post too. Let's continue to tell our stories!
