God does not expect instant spiritual perfection in you, just obedience. – Anon
God called scrawny little Gideon to lead His army over the Midianites. Gideon didn’t know how to pick an army nor really lead one, but the key is he OBEYED, and God was victorious.
Too often, many of us sit on the sidelines or in the pews of life and church very much aware of or in the “know” of what needs to be done. But yet we feel we can’t do it because we’ve not mastered it yet. God has never looked for the ‘perfect spiritual’ soul (He provided His own – Jesus), but the perfectly ‘willing’ heart; who is obedient to Him. As our opportunity to shine for God comes along this week our prayer should be that we will be obedient to Spirit’s promptings.
Until tomorrow……
