A Word About Life and Things


           

 

Whatever You Need

      There once was a missionary to Mexico who traveled from town to town and preached wherever he went. He did not know any Spanish outside of a few words and used an interpreter where ever he preached.  Once they traveled to a village in the mountains. There were no roads and the journey took three days. When they finally got there there was no one to interpret the message. The missionary got up to speak and said the few words he knew in Spanish. He went on speaking and preached the whole evening in Spanish.

      When we do anything for God, He gives us the ability to do that job. God is always asking us to do something we have not done before. When we work for Him, He does not ask us for our resumes.  He does not ask if we have the training or the schooling or even if we want to do it. He just asks us to do it.

      God has many things for us to do. The question is are we willing to do what He asks us to do? He is the One who gives us our talents and the ability to do anything. We can do whatever He asks us to do. Whatever we need, He will provide.

      New King James Version
1 Peter 4:11 If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
