God Can Use You!

.... just like to share this one Grin
 
 
 Can God Use You!  
 
 The next time you feel like GOD can't use you, just remember...  
 Noah was a drunk  
 Abraham was too old  
 Isaac was a daydreamer  
 Jacob was a liar  
 Leah was ugly  
 Joseph was abused  
 Moses had a stuttering problem  
 Gideon was afraid  
 Sampson 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  
 John the Baptist ate bugs  
 Peter denied Christ  
 The Disciples fell asleep while praying  
 Martha worried about everything  
 The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once  
 Zaccheus was too small  
 Paul was too religious  
 Timothy had an ulcer...AND  
 Lazarus was dead!  
 ...no more excuses now. God can use you to your full potential.  
 Besides you aren't the message, you are just the messenger.  
 Share this with a friend or two...  
 In the Circle of God's love,  
 God's waiting to use your full potential.  
 
 
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --  
 
 
 1. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.  
 2. Dear God, I have a problem, it's me.  
 3. Growing old is inevitable ... growing UP is optional.  
 4. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.  
 5. Silence is often misinterpreted but never misquoted.  
 6. Do the math ... count your blessings.  
 7. Faith is the ability to not panic.  
 8. Laugh every day, it's like inner jogging.  
 9. If you worry, you didn't pray ... If you pray, don't worry.  
 10. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home everyday.  
 11. Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.  
 12. The most important things in your house are the people.  
 13. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be  
 still so He can untangle the knot.!  
 14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.  
 15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead.  
 
 "God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change  
 ... the courage to change the one I can ... and the wisdom to know it's  
 me."

Thanks for that, Paulo.  Grin  The fact that God can take what is imperfect and use it to demonstrate His power and glory is just one of the many reasons I love Him so much.  
 
Thanks for the reminder that even though we are inadequate, God more than makes up for what we lack.

This is a great read...  I don't forward much in my emailing, but I am going to send this out to a few people...  
This is a better understanding of grace, even in the OT
