God Wants You Just As You Are.

Many people feel they are not competent enough to answer God’s call, some feel that they have to be a certain way, look a certain way or speak a certain way; that is so far from the truth. God wants you just as you are. Let’s take a look at the people God chose in the Bible to be leaders, speakers, teachers and doers of other works, if you noticed most of them had a past or didn’t live the life of a saint until after their transformation.  
Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future.  Jacob was a cheater, Peter had a temper, David had an affair, Noah got drunk, Jonah ran from God, Paul was a murderer, Gideon was insecure, Miriam was a gossiper, Martha was a worrier and Thomas was a doubter, Sarah was impatient, Elijah was depressed, Moses stuttered, Zaccheus was short, Abraham was old and Lazarus was dead.  Yet, God called and used each of these individuals to a special ministry and mission in doing His Will in some role or another whether we see it large or small.  We have heard the saying “God doesn’t call the qualified, He qualifies the call.” If God can use each of these people, just think what He can do with and for you. The reason why GOD gave the assignment to you and not to someone else, maybe because HE TRUSTS YOU with the task! The only way we can truly be happy is to do what God has called us to do. Remain open to him!  Be still!  God KNOWS what assignment to give you.
