I am only one, but still am one. I cannot do everything but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something I can do.

-Edward Hale

I believe we as humans have the natural instinct to underestimate our own abilities. Why is this? Because we are afraid of what we're capable of. We're afraid of stretching ourselves to the limit.
.....but Jesus brings a confidence and a strength to overcome these lies.

We each have a gift. A talent or a trait that is a tool for God's kingdom. He calls us to use this for Him- for expanding His kingdom here on earth

Rob Kaple brought up a good point at bible study on Monday- "God has 'delayed' his return in order for more people to be saved." Time is running out, life isn't going backwards. Why not use what you have? I certainly can't leave my friends and those I have yet to meet, miss Jesus.

Jesus has never been so real. I find myself saying this many times- therefore, he becomes more real to me each day. What an amazing gift. I have prayed and prayed and sought after God and asked him to REVEAL things to me; this week that's just what happened. Not just to reveal himself to me but to drop hints and show things to help me find what my PURPOSE is. I know his kingdom is my purpose- but in what way will I reach people? Music? Speaking? Teaching?

I don't exactly want to put what I received this week- but it's time for bigger things. To step outside and find Jesus is other places. And I'm stoked.

I pray the same for you. That you'd have a hunger and thirst for Jesus so strong that you find yourself on your knees each day. Begging for his presence in your life. There is no better satisfaction. He doesn't just satisfy. He saturates and still pours out.

God speaks. He loves. He cares. He rules and reigns over ALL things. Do something for Jesus- something outside of the "ordinary"- you'll find Him.
