The next time you feel like GOD can't use you...

I make a personal policy of not passing on chain e-mail, but I occasionally post a good one on my blog. I like this list primarily because it is true. I only have two comments. First, regarding Samson, long hair does not make me think God can't use me. Second, the last line makes the theological claim that in the Old Testament, God interacting with people is equivalent to Jesus interacting with them.


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
Rahab was a harlot
Elijah was suicidal
Isaiah preached naked
Jonah ran from God
Naomi was a widow
Samson had long hair and was a womanizer
Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
David had an affair and was a murderer
Job went bankrupt
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
And don't you forget,
Jesus Helped All Of Them!

Thank you so much :) Our God never looks at us as others do. He sees us through His son Jesus
