God will take you with all your faults and will equip you along the way. Jeremiah was not able to speak yet God said go and I will tell you what to say and will be with you. The only way we are going to be used is if we simply take the step and allow Him to use us. God will use our imperfections and weaknesses to make himself perfect and strong. Next time you or someone else thinks you can not be used because of your past or imperfections remember the following people and characteristics of them:

• Noah got drunk
• Abraham was to old
• Jacob was a liar
• Leah was considered ugly
• Joseph was abused
• Moses stuttered
• Gideon was afraid
• Samson had long hair and was a womanizer
• Rahab was a prostitute
• Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
• David had an affair and was a murderer
• Elijah was suicidal
• Isaiah preached naked
• Jonah ran from God
• Naomi was a widow
• Job went bankrupt
• Peter denied Christ
• The Disciples fell asleep while praying
• Martha worried about everything
• Mary Magdalene was cleansed of seven demons
• The Samaritan woman at the well had five husbands
• Zaccheus was too small
• Timothy had an ulcer
• Lazarus was dead!

God is capable of using you no matter what you have dealt with. You just first have to be willing to let God use you. God does not call the equipped; he equips the called. In the next several blogs I will be writing about the characters mentioned above. We will see how God always looked for the perfect imperfect people to use.

 God’s power is amazing beyond words. <3

“From glory to glory, You are glorious, You are glorious.”

This just made a lot of sense to me. :)
