PROMISES

God uses some of the most unlikely people.

Young D.L. Moody, the great Bible communicator, was a poor uneducated man.  His grammar was so awful church members would squirm in their seats whenever he spoke.  Yet by God's grace he would become one of the greatest preachers of his era.

Billy Graham's first sermon lasted only 8 minutes (Don't say it).  Those listening to his early attempts concluded he showed 'little promise' for that vocation.

'God uses some of the most unlikely people.'

It seems God isn't nearly as interested in our beginnings as He is our obedience.  God never fails - not even one of His promises fall to the ground.

We're in a way better position than all those earliest heroes of the faith we so laud today.  None of them had the benefit of Romans 4:21 like we do:  " ... being fully persuaded that God has power to do what He has promised."

Trust and believe ... and walk toward Jesus.

And be blessed.
