Thought for the week 2

There's no such thing as ordinary

All of you who know me a bit will probably agree that i'm a fairly ordinary person. I was average at school, i was ok at sports, i really just got on with things. I always had that feeling of being a 'Mr Average.' Although i know that i had been taught it at church/youth group i didn't realise that i am actually much more than average, i am in fact priceless. The reason is that i am made by and have a relationship with the God who made the universe. He has given me talents and skills to comlete the tasks and life that he has set before me. Although i often feel average and on the face of it i am, i become more than ordinary because of my relationship with an extra-ordinary God who all things are possible for.

In the same way God has made you unique. He has given you your own skills and abilities. He has made you exactly how he meant to and you are an important part of his plan for the world.

Read: Psalm 139

He knows all about you, your strengths and weaknesses.

Pray: Ask God to help you to find out the plans and things he wants you to do with your life.
