Become

When we think about becoming a vessel for God’s use, we usually think of people who are intellectual, strong, and spiritually sound—let’s face it—we think of “perfect” people. But what about the people society calls weak, the black sheep of the family, the stubborn child, or the ones with so-called messed up lives?

It’s easy to feel alone and discouraged and believe your life is way too messed up for God to use. But God uses all the messes and all pain. They’re all part of His divine plan. You were perfectly knit together in your mother’s womb, and the Father made you wonderfully complex. Every single day was laid out before you were formed. It’s all part of His wonderful plan for you. The mess and pain are like boot camp, your training ground. Become will encourage and inspire you. There’s not a life too messed up for Him to use for His glory.
