Skill verses faith

"It would be well to know much, but better to love much. It would be delightful to have abundance of skill to serve God, but better still to have abundance of faith to trust in the Lord for skill and everything." -Spurgeon

I love this quote. I consider myself to be decent at a lot of things but not really good at anything. I have no special talent or skill. My husband is really smart and business savvy. My little brother is academically superior. My father can sing and play multiple instruments. Me? I can do nothing in particular. BUT NONE OF THAT MATTERS!

God doesn't use those who are equipped, He equips those He uses! Faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains!



I find that in God I find purpose and value. In this world there will always be someone better, smarter, nicer, prettier, more talented, more of whatever you wish you could be. Don't look out, look up.
