It is pretty scary to think that God puts his reputation in the hands of a bunch of imperfect humans that are really good at messing things up. I do my best to love the people around me and show them Jesus, yet I know that I fail. I say things that are judgmental, careless, and unloving. And yet God lets people like me be his representatives in this world. Yikes. It makes me feel very small and incapable. I have some very dear and wise friends who reminded me this weekend that if we are humble and start the day off asking God to glorify his name through us and not our own, then he will use us to speak his words and do his will. It is amazing what God can do witha bunch of failures. This song gives me hope.
