God really made human beings very interesting things.

a combination of the logical and illogical.

we are wired in a way, that we find it hard to understand ourselves at times.

but that's the element of mystery God has in store for us. cos that's for Him to know. and to allow us to be followers of His lead.

:) amazing.

received this in my email today.

GOD Has Called You

God has called each of us to serve Him in the place He has us. In His eyes we all have a ministry. Many serve Him in a local church through variety of ministries, such as music, teaching, youth work, or by being part of the church staff. Others serve on the mission field, on the job, at school, or at home.

God knows you and He knows your heart desires to serve Him. You are someone that He will use to make a difference, to share His love, and to touch the hearts of others. What has qualified you for this high previlege of being used by Him? Is it your talents, your personality, your education, your influence, or your resume? It is none of these; rather, it is the response of your heart toward Him. God is always searching for those whose hearts are yield to Him so that He can work mightily through them.

Sometimes we can be led to think that God's work is dependent upon us, upon what we do and upon what we know. The truth is that God wants us to be totally dependent upon Him. He is the Treasure, we are the vessels; He is the Vine, we are the branches; He is the Living Water, we are the channels through which He flows.

The apostle Peter was someone who needed to learn this important truth. Jesus taught him the futility of trying to get results through his own efforts by allowing him, an expert fisherman, to labour all night and come up empty. Afterward, when he followed Jesus' word to cast out into the deep, Peter pulled in a catch tht was beyond his dreams.

As His servant, remember that your ministry is His idea, and not yours. He is the One who knows you, who has called you, and who has equipped you to serve Him. Remain true, remain faithful, remain restful, and remain totally dependent upon Him.

God is not looking for those who are clever, but for those in whom He can be wise; He is not looking for those who are talented, but for those to whom He can be all sufficient; He is not looking for those who are powerful, but for those through whom He can be almighty...
