What About Me?

This is a statement that is not a laughing matter, or one that's not spoken about in many circles but I guarantee it's run through many of our minds (amen)..

If we can be honest about it > I've been here on many occasions...

What about me Lord? I see so and so getting used, acknowledged, blessed, etc.
Now if this sounds way too familar- don't be surprised "it happens" So if it is happening now, how should we respond?


Allow me to suggest three simple yet profound(in my opinion) things to help us through this:

1) The Lord Has Not Forgotten You
Read this passage slowly: Isa 49: 15-16 And the Lord answered] Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet I will not forget you.Behold, I have indelibly imprinted (tattooed a picture of) you on the palm of each of My hands;


2) He Is Not Done Using You
Phil 1:6 he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.



3) He's Dealing With Us
Please understand what I'm about to say to you: If you're feeling like you're on a shelf and God is not using you the way you would like him to: pay close attention to this: People around us may possible read us wrong when were in this place (God's dealings) For example: Remember Hannah in 1 Samuel- when she was crying out to God because she was barren: vs 12 -14 says: As she kept on praying to the LORD, Eli observed her mouth. Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk and said to her, “How long are you going to stay drunk? Put away your wine.

The point is this:
other people might see something wrong with you, but they don't know God's dealing with you .

So bottomline: sit tight this will pass!!
