Finding The Beautiful In You

You are the fifth sparrow no more!

How often does God call us to do a task and we feel unequipped? In Hebrews 13:21 it says “He will equip you with everything good for doing His will, and may He work in us what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”
God has asked me to take on tasks which I felt I was not prepared for, inadequate to fulfill. I knew without Him I would fail. I would ask Him for courage, strength, understanding, knowledge, an absence of fear to be able to do what He called me to do. But I realized in actuality I was going to complete the task on His strength, with the tools – courage, knowledge, no fear – He has given me. God equipped Moses with Aaron (an unlikely tool) when Moses was not confident in his speech (Exodus 4:10). God gave Esther courage when she had to go before the king and speak for her people. Jesus gave his disciples a great amount of knowledge to be fishers of men.In Philippians 2:13 Paul writes “for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill His good purpose.” Remember whatever task God has laid before you He will be with you in ALL THE THINGS to fulfill it. He will give you the tools, the courage, the people to surround you and help you – He will equip you to do the task He has laid out before you.
Equipped by Him
God gives us bounty in every season. I did some research (aka put it in the googler, as my mama says) on what bounty is. Bounty means gift or reward, especially from a higher power/government, and the word implies that the gifts are bestowed generously. In our own lives we have seasons. A season of bloom, growth and planting seeds. A season of hot, dry and uncomfortable. A season of change, thankfulness and carving out pieces to find the light. A season of dreariness, storms and quiet. God in His grace sees that we receive bounty in each of our seasons. “Not everyone takes action to harvest the experiences of the seasons of life in order to enjoy their bounty.” ~ Andrea Goeglein, ‘Dr. Success’ God’s bounty is a gift in its refining, stretching and growing us. We must take action by getting into His word to learn more, surround ourselves with a community of believers and reflect and be open to what God is doing.
Bounty in Every Season
When we repurpose furniture or take pieces of old furniture and put them back together, they are not exactly put back together the way they were on the first go around. They are put back together for a new purpose. Sometimes it is put together better, sometimes completely different, and sometimes left with a wobble or stuck piece.
God does that with us, doesn’t He?
Hagar in Genesis 16:13 calls our God El-roi, “the God who sees me”. He sees you. You are His daughter, and He is faithful to His promises. His promise to walk with you in your purpose and to put you back together (time and time again). That faithfulness is unfailing, everlasting, and a shield around us. “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” Psalm 91:4, NIV
Genesis 16:13,God is El-roi, “the God who sees me”
