Being part of God's work

means, be the answer to a need. Sunday, God used a missionary who works among the native american indians to remind us, God wants us F.A.T. not the true meaning of the word, but in taking the letters apart, it goes like this, F- Faithful in small & big things; A- be Available to God for His purposes and then, T-Teachable, we don't know everything so have the kind of heart that listens well and take advice. When we become F.A.T for God, you will find that you are actually an answer to someone's need, maybe not right away, but it will happen as you pay attention to what God gave you, HE will do something you never expected that will also surprise you because you did not do it, He just went ahead and did it HIMSELF. Remember Joseph in the Bible? He was FAT for the Lord, and he became an answer to all of Egypt's need and while he was taking care of that matter, God did not tell Joseph that HE was going to use him to answer the need of Israel. God just went ahead and brought Joseph's brothers to Egypt to buy grain, and the rest is history as they say.

When we work together to build the kingdom of God we will be met with some surprises on the way, God will use whatever HE gave each of us to be the catalyst for HIS purposes in other places or people we never even thought of. But, then, that's why HE is GOD! because His ways and thoughts are much higher than ours and much better than ours..
Isn't it? Praise His Holy Name..

bless you today reader... be
