Vessels Of Honor

Thank God, there are no limits to His power! He can move mountains, lift burdens, save a soul, meet needs, and change the lives of substandard saints -- transforming them by grace into vessels of honor for His glory. I'm glad Jesus doesn't give up on us when we stray.

2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. . . . .

John 15:5, I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Years ago in Arkansas stirring sermons often urged me to do more for Jesus. But life was busy. I didn’t read the Bible like I should. Finally, I got out of church. Five years later the Lord gloriously brought me back in a unique way. My blessing cup overflowed for a couple of years.

During that time I was asked to teach a ladies Sunday School class, and I eagerly agreed. When I got home I  panicked. What had I done? I didn’t know how to teach a ladies class. With the Lord’s help and trembling knees and voice, I taught those sweet ladies. I learned that when you teach,  you get the greatest blessing because Bible study does that to you.
