Never, ever quit at becoming whom God has called you to be

There are times that no matter how much effort we put in trying to succeed that we feel like a failure because of the temporarycircumstances. II Corinthians 4:17, 18, "For our light affliction,which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal." As you read the following list of names, remember God sees the end and it is good. Jeremiah 29:11. Never, ever quit at becoming whom God has called you to be. The next time you feel like GOD can't use you, just remember...

Noah was a drunk

Abraham was too old

Isaac was a daydreamer

Jacob was a liar

Leah was ugly

Joseph was abused

Moses had a stuttering problem

Gideon was afraid

Samson had long hair and was a womanizer

Rahab was a prostitute

Jeremiah and Timothy were too young

David had an affair and was a murderer

Elijah was suicidal

Now! No more excuses! God can use you to your full potential. Besides you aren't the message, you are just the messenger. A single grain of corn will produce several ears; these ears will produce several ears more; and the increase, in time, will fill the field, the province and the entire country. Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in > the whole world for a witness to all the nations.

Rejoice & become who God has called you to be... inspite of the circumstances or delays. (This is not my original work... someone sent it to me awhile back.)
