God Sees Each Heart
9:19 AMI believe the words in 1 Samuel were written for people like me- those who feel they may never measure up to their own expectations, let alone others'! And there were others like David that I found in the Bible that God chose to use! Those like,
- Moses, murdered an Egyptian and ran away, but God used him mightily to bring His people out of Egypt!
- Jacob was a deceiver, but God created the nation Israel through him.
- Rahab was a prostitute, but God used her to help bring His people into Canaan.
- David was just a boy, but God chose him to be King over Israel.
“Certainly,” she answered. “Each evening when the sun sets, I turn on my lights just long enough to light my candles; then turn them off.”
Her home was connected to this amazing power, but she failed to utilize it. I liken this to those who have accepted Jesus for their final destination (salvation), but have never trusted Him with their destiny. The power is there, but they're still getting by on our own strengths.
Imagine what might happen if we not only tapped into His power, but left it on!
It's almost as easy as flicking the switch. Just a matter of surrendering and inviting Him to come in and take charge, sitting back and watching Him go to work. That's really it! We humans like to complicate things and make them out to be more difficult than they really are, when The Lord has made it very simple really.
Is there something He has been calling you to do? Something you would love to do, only you haven't quite figured out how? Or, just maybe He wants to do in you something you haven't even thought of yet!!! Just imagine!
Are you willing to invite Him to take over?
I truly cannot wait to see all He will do through you!
Blessings,
Sue
