How To Be Usefull!
"Please,
my lord, let me stay here as a slave
instead of the boy, and let the boy return with
his brothers."
Genesis 44: 33
Violet Liddle felt God calling her to missions, yet doors
didn’t open. Instead she became a maid. She worked
for George Bernard
Shaw and Winston Churchill,
living out her Christian testimony.
When she worked for revival groups in England,
she said, “It must seem as though my life has
been made up of lots of bits and pieces… but I
can see how all the different
experiences have
added up and prepared me for what was to
come next.”
That was true for Joseph. All his experiences
prepared him for his role as prime minister. But
the same was also true for his brother
Judah,
who had sold Joseph into slavery.
Years later, he was broken over his sin and
offered himself as a prisoner. God used it
to unite his family.
Everything that happens to us—even failures
and
confessed sins—will somehow work for God in His
timing. Thank the Lord for all your experiences,
which
He weaves into a tapestry of usefulness.
"God leads His children step
by step. I knew that was true."
