Just Ordinary?

Ever feel like you were made to be just ordinary?
Does God use just ordinary people?
Absolutely!

What kind of difference can one ordinary person make?

An ordinary family man saved his family from a worldwide flood.
Noah. Genesis 7.

A run-away led an entire nation to freedom.
Moses. Exodus.

A slave led a band of wanderers to battle the most fortified city in the world AND won!!!
Joshua. Chapter 6.

A day-dreaming teenager saved the world from hunger.
Joseph. Genesis.

A shepherd boy fought the fiercest warrior in the land with a sling and 5 rocks and won.
David. 1 Samuel 17.

And later became king of Israel.

A teenager changed the national religion.
Daniel. Chapter 6.

Ordinary. What extra_ordinary_thing has God created for you?
You for?

A carpenter—well, you know…
Jesus, the Bible.

He has an extraordinary imagination.
Take a step of faith and be surprised.
