*od can use ordinary people for e[traordinary work

+ow do we accomplish tasks that are too difficult for us to do alone" :e believe and trust in *od to provide the means, for if *od calls us to it, +e will make it pos sible.

,n the %ible, as Moses ap proached the burning bush, *od called to him, “Moses, Moses. Put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.”

7he ground was holy be cause the presence of *od was there.

$nd *od instructed, “, will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of ,s rael out of (gypt.” ([odus &hapter

“:ho am ,, /ord"” asked Moses, “that you would use me"”

$nd then Moses said unto the /ord, “2 my /ord, , am not eloquent, neither here tofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant but , am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.” &ontinuing the /ord spoke, “1ow there fore go, and , will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say.” ([o dus, &hapter

“, will be with you, Mo ses,” *od promised.

:hen we walk in obedi ence and follow *od¶s lead, doors will swing open that were once closed shut, peo ple will astonishingly show up to help us, circumstances will transform miraculous ly in our favor, and as we look back we will know that without a doubt it was *od¶s divine hand.

)or when we seek *od¶s will for our life, miracles will happen.

*od created you, +e knows all about you and when +e gives you an as signment, +e will provide the resources and strength you need. 7here are no ob stacles that can stop you, nor any disadvantage that can hold you back, because +e has equipped you with everything you require to succeed.

7here will always be crit ics and detractors who will try to steer us off course, but what we believe about our selves is most important. :e set the limits for our future, and with *od as our partner, we can bring our dreams to pass. 6o, let us get enthused about life again, overflowing with vitality and purpose, following our heart and be lieving in our abilities.

:hen we face set backs or difficulties, press on, nev er quit :e all have some thing valuable to do, so let¶s then be up and doing, real i]ing that stumbling blocks can be stepping stones ad vancing us to the ne[t level, and pushing us to our divine destiny.

,f *od is for us, nothing can be against us, for +e is well able to see us through whatever we may be facing.

Maybe we have been through trials that tested our self worth to the ma[imum and that left us feeling of absolutely no value. $nd be cause of that, we think *od cannot use us because of self imposed limitations.
