If you feel like God doesn’t love you, and can’t use your potential, just remember this:
Abraham was too old,
Isaac was a great dreamer,
Jacob was a liar,
Philippe’s daughter, Léa, was ugly and had a dull look,
Joseph was mistreated by his brothers,
Moses had a stuttering problem,
Gideon, also known as Yeroubbaal, was afraid,
Samson had long hair and was a womanizer,
David had several wives and was a murderer,
Elie was suicidal,
Isaiah preached naked,
Jonah fled from God,
Job went bankrupt,
Peter denied Christ,
The disciples fell asleep while Jesus was praying,
Marthe worried about everything,
Nalda, the Samaritan woman, divorced more than once,
Zacchaeus was small in stature,
Paul was too religious,
Paul’s friend Timothy had an ulcer,
And Lazarus was dead!
And don’t forget that Jesus helped them all
Now, no more excuses, God loves you and expects you to use your full potential because you are not the message but the messenger.
There are 10 things we need to understand:
Live simply, love generously, take a deep interest, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God.
