You might feel like you’re not good at anything. You might feel like God can’t use you. You might feel like there’s nothing that makes you special. Many of us feel that way about ourselves at times. But God loves you very much and no matter who you are or what you can do God can use you to make the world a better place!
No matter what you are good at, God can use you. And if you’re one of those people who is pretty sure that you aren’t good at anything, first of all, you are. We all have gifts and abilities given to us by God for our good and for the good of others. And second of all, it doesn’t matter what you can do. Because God can work through you to do incredible things! and all we have to do is let Him.
