Grace and Love

I'm out of my depth.  There is so much going on that I don't know how to move forward.

I remember doing this better than I am now right now.  Even in this, I know God has called me and He doesn't make mistakes.  I was recently reminded of a Frederick Buechner post where he marveled that "God recruited so many lamebrains and misfits and nitpickers and holier-than-thou's and stuffed shirts and odd ducks and ego maniacs and milquetoasts..." We all have this idea how someone else "should" be doing something - should be responding - should be ministering - should be handling - But God has created us all with different personalities, and His purpose will be accomplished while He is glorified in our uniqueness.  So the stuff shirt won't do things the same way as the milquetoast, but that is ok!
And when it comes down to it, we'll all answer to God for the "how".  So I need to keep my heart in check. I, too, marvel how God has accomplished anything on this earth when He has us to work with!!  I'm so humbled and grateful God wants to use this odd duck.

We get it - let's extend it!!
