We each are unique, unusually gifted, and on a mission. God has endowed each of us with specific talents, personalities and situations to impact this world for Him. We are not to be like anyone else. We are His workmanship and set apart for His work. Compared to others, we may not measure up, yet when used by God we can and will please Him. Really, that's all that matters . . . that we please Him!
Are we prepared to please God or are we trying to please others? Are we ok with how God made us or are we trying to be someone we are not? God has prepared us to work for Him. Doing it some other way will only bring frustration. Folks like Daniel, David, Paul, and John the Baptist all were used by God according to their personalities and design. Had they not accepted His calling things would have been different.
What about us? God is preparing us all daily. Will we respond? Advent is about preparation . . . for the coming of Christ. Are we doing our part????
In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” (Matthew 3:1-2)
