Use What You’ve Got

Read 1 Corinthians 7-9

1 Corinthians 7:20 says, “Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called."  When we’re kids we imagine all we’ll be able to accomplish when we’re teenagers, or in college, or grown.  When we’re single we imagine all we’ll be able to accomplish when we’re married and have someone to do things with.  When we’re trying to lose weight, we imagine all we’ll be able to accomplish when we’re slim.  We will be better and do more once we reach whatever milestone is ahead.

We forget that we don’t need to wait to become all God wants us to be.  He can use us now whatever and wherever we are.  We don’t have to wait until we’ve become spiritually mature.  When we let God use us here and now, He will guide our growth as He uses us to bring honor to Him.

We don’t have to attend classes or get a certificate to be ready for God to work through us.  He loves us as we are and will allow us to be part of showing Him to others.  All we have to be is willing.
