Some feel like they have to have it all together before they can approach the Lord. It is precisely the opposite. You do not have to have it all together.
God sees our hearts. He knows what we are feeling inside. He knows that we have nothing to give and nothing to offer. But, he chooses us. All we have to do is ask, “God, have mercy on my a sinner?”
Where in my life and my heart do I live like the pharisee? Bring these areas to the truth in God.
God loves a humble heart.
“Lord, I am nothing. I have nothing. And I can do nothing. But Lord, if you can use nothing, use me.”
God can use anyone who is willing to admit that they don’t have anything. If you feel overwhelmed or not equal to the tasks in your life, that is a good thing. God can use that if we ask him. He is waiting, in the place in your life where you feel weakest and most vulnerable, to pour out his mercy.
God wants a weak, broken church full of sinners. That kind of church is radically reliant on God’s grace.
God can use you. Come see what God can do through you and become explosively alive.
