Appointed to JOY


            Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  God has set aside a serving that your name on it!

God has a plan!        
  As we recall the story of Jeremiah and how God appointed Him as prophet to Judah, we find so many messages that are for each of us personally.  When God enlightened Jeremiah as to His master plan for his life, that he was to confront the leaders and people of Judah, Jeremiah was scared!  He said, in verse, 6 of the first chapter:

“Ah, Sovereign LORD, I do not know how to speak; I am only a child.”

     
Who, ME?  
     How often has God asked you to do something and you respond like Jeremiah.  “Oh, God, I don’t know how to do that!  I’m not prepared.  I’m don’t have the skills or training or talent to do what you’re asking me to do!”

We don't have to be PERFECT!  
      Well, let me tell you something I’m learning along this JOYful journey, friends.  God doesn’t expect us to be perfect before He can use us!  He doesn’t expect us to be completely prepared for the task to which He calls us.  What He does desire is for us to be a willing instrument through which He can work.  When we’re depending on Him instead of ourselves and our abilities, He can accomplish so much more through us.

  Listen......
         So as God speaks to your heart about His plan for your life….no matter how young or how old you are…be receptive, be willing and be joyful.  God can use anyone.  And He will equip you with just the right tools to accomplish His purpose…with JOY!

            Be ready to drink in His JOY JUICE today…in whatever manner He chooses to serve it!
