That should be about enough shouldn't it? From Felisol Dear Renae,
The Norwegian Bible says; “He will fill everything in everybody.”
That should be about enough shouldn’t it?

I've often found that it is in the areas where we feel the most lacking that God likes to shine the brightest. Hi Alyssa.

Especially when I feel so lacking in my teaching abilities. It's not about my ability but about my willingness to follow. Great reminder! Especially when I feel so lacking in my teaching abilities.

You're right - as I look at the key players in the Bible, most of them were pretty ordinary . . . except for their faith and their willingness to obey God. I think He did that on purpose, don't you? It gives us regular people hope, that we really can please Him. Hi Lillie.

Moses stuttered, David was the young son in a family of outstanding men, and the disciples were fishermen and tax collectors. He calls all of us ordinary folk. Renae,

But I know what you mean. I'm glad God doesn't look for the same things the world looks for. Well, Jeanette, I think you are far from ordinary! But I know what you mean.

And what comfort this post gives! I think every one of us has times when we feel pretty useless, and especially when we get older, we can't always do the things that used to make us feel useful. But that doesn't figure in when God looks at us! He sees me so much differently than I see myself, and I'm SO thankful! I am so very ordinary, Renae! And what comfort this post gives!
