God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, He has chosen the weak things of this world to shame the things which are mighty.
Is your life ingrown? Do you just listen to Christian music? Watch Christian movies? Read Christian books? Have relationships with Christians? Talk Christian talk?
One: God has called us to be salt and light. To take the news of Christ to a lost and dying world. To spread His love to the broken, poor and suffering. They may not all be Christians. He wants to stretch your tent. To bring many others in. Tell them your story. It is God in you. It will give them hope, faith and love.
Two: God rains on the just and the unjust. God is in everything everywhere. He reveals Himself through His creation. He speaks through even those that are not Christian as well as those that are. He blesses them as well as He does us. He displays Himself through the gifts He has given them. Enjoy them. Love them. Learn from them. Bring them in.
You may think, I can't go out and do anything for God or others that really matters. I am too young, too busy, don't know enough, too old. God wants to bless others and give you the desires of your heart to be used by Him. God does not call the equipped. He equips the called by His Spirit. But God can use a donkey. He can use a stick. Even a rock. A burning bush. A 90 year old woman to have a son. He used the blind. THe mentally illl. The sick. A tax collector who was a wee little man. A virgin to give birth to His Son. A murder to be a man after His own heart. A cripple to walk. The condemned to be forgiven. The dead to live. The prisoner to walk free. A boy to fight with the strength of an army. Men to walk through fire. To walk through water. He has use the fearful to be fearless. The unfaithful to show mercy. He who stutters to deliver a message of deliverance. A prostitute woman to be His witness. A young boys sack lunch to feed thousands. A shepherd to be at His birth.
He has given you love and faith. He can use anything. He can use you. He uses the unlikely. Those that are not qualified. It is about revealing His greatness through those that have failed. About revealing who He is and His love. He uses the foolish things of this world.
