More than Capable.

I find it interesting how God really uses those who people don’t think are capable of being used. If God can use a rock he most definitely can use anyone. 2 Corinthians 12 speaks a lot about allowing God to work through our weaknesses. Paul pleaded to God 3 times to remove the thorn in his flesh. I imagine to him he believed that it was the very thing that made him really weak. The thing is sometimes we humans think we are indispensable. We tend to get boastful or prideful and God never wants us to think our very own hands did it. God uses us but at the end of the day it’s done by his power, might and will. We are just part of his plan, we aren’t God. You don’t know how many times I’ve seen people not think others are capable of doing something. Based on their past mistakes, weaknesses, etc. I love God because he proves people wrong, always ! All God needs is for a person to be low in Spirit.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭3‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

God is clear, the Kingdom of Heaven belong to those who humble and surrender themselves before God. When you are poor in spirit that means you are bringing yourself low before God. That means that person is giving their lives to God. That they are humble before God and understand they can’t without him. We can’t judge who God wants to use. You may think they aren’t capable but God knows they are, because it’s not them! I use to judge myself so roughly, before it was hard for me to formulate words according to what I was trying to say. I didn’t doubt that God was capable of using me. I doubted in me being capable of being used by God because of my weaknesses. I doubted so much about myself, I couldn’t speak, sometimes it would be hard for me to understand things, and I can go on… But the very thing that I believed would stop me and make me incapable of unqualified, my weakness, God made me strong in. He helped me be better at it, he wanted me to know and comprehend that he’s the one who did it! Through him I am made strong, and that’s the way it’s always been. God can use your weaknesses, in fact he wants to use it to glorify himself. He wants to show the world that it’s nothing we could ever do but it’s him through us. If you read the word of God you will read a lot of the biggest people God used had weaknesses. We need to understand that it’s all Gods doing not our own hands.
