Does God have a plan?
Posted By admin on January 7th, 2010
I received the following in an email from my mother this morning . . .
The next time you feel like GOD can’t use YOU, just remember…
- Noah was a drunk
- Abraham was too old
- Isaac was a daydreamer
- Jacob was a liar
- Leah was ugly
- Joseph was abused
- Moses had a stuttering problem
- Gideon was afraid
- Sampson had long hair and was a womanizer
- Rahab was a prostitute
- Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
- David had an affair and was a murderer
- Elijah was suicidal
- Isaiah preached naked
- Jonah ran from God
- Naomi was a widow
- Job went bankrupt
- John the Baptist ate bugs
- Peter denied Christ
- The Disciples fell asleep while praying
- Martha worried about everything
- The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once
- Zaccheus was too small
- Paul was too religious
- Timothy had an ulcer…AND
- Lazarus was dead!
When I really take a look at the examples of who God includes as major players in His story in scripture and throughout history I become more and more convinced that I have a part too!

I was interested to see how many “pervs” were on the list. There is a place for all of- me.

I really like this Noel, it forces me to see that God can, and will, forgive and look beyond our worst failures.
Yes, I like this.
