One of the most common responses that pastors (and God) hears in response to ministry opportunities is, "I can't do that?" or "Who, me?"
The Bible is full of examples of ordinary people doing extraordinary things: Moses leading the Jews out of captivity, Gideon defeating the Midianities, Peter walking on the water, Abraham becoming the Father of the Israelites, Joseph becoming Pharoah's right-hand man and the list goes on and on.
The common thread in all of these examples is that God found someone ordinary to do something that he was incapable of doing by himself. The person needed God to accomplish the task, but he was willing to be God's instrument in the process - maybe not initially, but eventually.
God's looking for some ordinary people to do some extraordinary things. Are you ready to say, "Here am I, Lord. Send me!"?
