Bible words from 1 Corinthians 2: The Message.

I love these words spoken by Paul:-

“When I first came to you to let you in on God’s master stroke, I didn’t try to impress you with polished speeches and the latest philosophy. I deliberately kept it plain and simple: first Jesus and who He is; then Jesus and what He did – Jesus crucified. I was unsure of how to go about this, and felt totally inadequate – I was scared to death, if you want the truth of it – and so nothing I said could have impressed you or anyone else. But the Message came through anyway. God’s Spirit and God’s power did it, which made it clear that your life of faith is a response to God’s power, not to some fancy mental or emotional footwork by me or anyone else.”

Hum!

Does this sound familiar?

Paul wasn’t the first, and he certainly wouldn’t be the last to feel so inadequate!

Are you feeling incapable, lacking the necessary skill or knowledge? Unqualified?

Hey! We have this reassurance –

God doesn’t call the qualified, He qualifies the called

Come on!
