I had such a yucky day on Tuesday. I wasn’t feeling good, I had to work and I had zero energy. And to top everything off I had to teach Bible Study in the evening.
The absolute last thing I felt like doing was teaching Bible Study. I mean I was in the kind of mood where I was ready to pick a fight with someone!
I had no one to call in at the last minute to teach for me and I had to get it together. How in the world could God use me when I felt so crummy and I didn’t want to even be present?
The Word of God just does something to you. You read it, you speak it, you share with others and you can be transformed. That evening of Bible Study brought laughter to a soul who needed a lift, a new scripture to a woman who needed something to hold on to and a bond to a group of women that are looking for connection.
Beloved, God uses you in ways you can’t even imagine…in places you would never dream and even by doing things you consider routine. If you live your life to serve others as if you are serving Christ, you just can’t go wrong.
“Oozing”is a way of life. It doesn’t always happen when you feel great, but if you step out in faith and do the next right thing…especially when you don’t feel like it.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)
