You never know...

You never know when God's gonna use you.... or how.... Sometimes I write what I think is a GREAT blog, and I get NO response.... or even I get NAILED to the wall on how wrong/off base/heretical I am... Other times I write what feels like a jumbled mess... hardly makes sense to me... I have NO idea if people will properly infer my message or relate to what I'm trying to convey and BAM! It touches people. It ministers to them.

More often then not, it is when I'm thinking, "Gosh maybe I should just delete this one.... Maybe it was only the writing and getting it out of my soul that needed to be done and it should not go public because it makes NO sense." that is when I hear from people, "This was exactly what I needed to hear."

Sooooooo I have a lesson for you... my faithful readers.....

SAY it!  DO it!  Do NOT hold back on what the Holy Spirit is telling you to do!  I would bet a billion dollars there will be haters. I can almost guarantee you will get a little bit of flack. But I can also tell you if just ONE person is blessed, it is worthwhile.

sooooo.... tell that stranger at Walmart how great her hair looks when you think it.... risk looking like a stalker because your comment just might be the one that gives her the hope to make it through what she's struggling with.... ask that person whose sorrow catches your attention if you can pray for them.... it may be hard and they may say no.... but try!  Reach out!  Risk!  Take the chance!  Most often when you feel most inadequate is when God is waiting to move the most mightily.

You never know when He's going to use you..... You don't have to know.  You just have to DO whatever He's telling you to do.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
I Corinthians 1:27
