The Joy of Being Used By Jesus

You have a new purpose in Christ.  God purposefully uses you through everyday tasks: God uses your hands to feed, protect and care for others; God uses your honest labor to bless your community; God uses your mouth to speak comfort, truth and love; God uses your ears to hear the hurts and hopes, fears and failures of your neighbors.  And God uses you to bring Jesus to other useless runaways, thereby making them useful again.
