“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 NIV
We did some yard work today. It was hot but the payoff sure is worth it. The yard looks pretty good. I rearranged the porch decor. We cut down some small trees, and hubby trimmed the bushes. A good days' work. We set apart time today to do it. It was important to us. I'm sure you set time apart today for something that was equally important to you.
God set us apart before we were even born. He took the time to form us and make us exactly the way we are. It was important to him. We are important to him. We matter, so much so that he doesn't care what our abilities are. He just needs us available. The prophet Jeremiah had no ability to speak or prophecy, yet God put the words in His mouth. All he had to do was follow through. We had the tools today to take care of our home. All we had to do was use them.
Be a tool that God uses. He can turn ordinary trimmers into tree conquering chainsaws, so why not let him? I'm willing.
