Don't assume you have to be extraordinary to be used by God. You don't have to have exceptional gifts, talents, abilities, or connections. God specializes in using ordinary people whose limitations and weaknesses make them ideal showcases for His greatness and glory.
Nancy Leigh DeMossBrokenness is the shattering of my self-will - the absolute surrender of my will to the will of God. It is saying โYes, Lord!โ - no resistance, no chafing, no stubbornness - simply submitting myself to His direction and will in my life.
Nancy Leigh DeMossDo you know who you are? God made you a woman. Accept His gift. Don't be afraid to be feminine and to add physical and spiritual loveliness to the setting where He has placed you. You are a child of God. You are a part of the bride of Christ. You belong to the King--you are royalty. Dress and conduct yourself in a way that reflects your high and holy calling. God has called you out of this world's system--don't let the world press you into its mold. Don't think, dress, or act like the world; inwardly and outwardly, let others see the difference He makes in your life.
Nancy Leigh DeMossChristmas is all about surrender. It's all about the surrender of the Son to obey the perfect will of the Father and enter human history.
