God uses what you have to fill a need which you never could have filled.
God uses where you are to take you where you never could have gone
God uses what you can do to accomplish what you never could have done
God uses who you are to let you become who you never could have been
In the Bible you find many stories of people that God used in incredible ways. For instance the widow with the jar of oil; God used the little oil that she had to pay her debts and was able to live with her children with the rest of the money she got from selling the oil.
Joseph is a good example of how God can use you where you are, and take you where you never could have gone. Joseph went from a slave to the second most powerful person in the nation of Egypt
Another example is the eight year old child who became one of the greatest revolutionary kings in the history of Israel. Josiah brought the nation of Israel back to God in his early age.
If God could use all these people why can't He use you? Just let Him and you will see the wonders He is going to accomplish in your life and the lives of those around you!!! God never call the qualified, He qualifies the called! Sometimes it may seem to you that you cannot do it or you do not have what it takes; But if you can just surrender your will to God, He can work wonders that you cannot even imagine!
Dictionary.com defines love as “a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person, or a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.”
When I think about it and reflect on it I discover that love is much more than just a feeling
Love is a decision and commitment. Feelings do change and sometimes the people we say we love sometimes do things that make us not want to love them.
When that happens, the feelings are gone, so what do we do?
Do we stop loving them or do we do our best to make thing s work out?
Everyone says I love you, even the devil says it. What is important is what we do for the people we say we love. How much are we willing to give or sacrifice? How long are we willing to sit at the door steps waiting for them to open the door so we could talk things out?
That’s what love is all about. If Christ was willing to let go of all the glory of heaven to come and go through what he went through, I would say that love transcends all feelings. Love is more than just having our heart race as we see the person we love, or having the palms of our hands sweat, or not being able to say a word at the site of the person we claim to love.
Love is more than all of that
Love is a decision we take and we commit ourselves to do whatever it takes.
What is love to you?

The semester has come to an end.
Those that I know, my classmate, my friends are going to be leaving soon.
It’s time to open a new chapter, time to start a new journey, things seem a little unpredictable out there.
As one of my professors will put it “the golden cage” is open, It is time to fly or for others to learn how to fly.
As sure as the world out there is uncertain, I know for a fact that He will make a way.
Now it’s time To Dream, To Dare, and To Do.
It’s time to dream big, to dare with courage, and to do by giving it your best.
Remember there is one person that you count on to give you the courage, the strength to go on.
You can count on Him to come to your help at any time; all you have to do is to call on Him.
It is said “the distance between your problem and its solution, is the distance between your knees and the floor.”
So my dear friends, I wish you all the very best and God blessing as you try in your own way to make a difference and to make this world a better place, a better place not only for you, but for the entire human race.
May God be with you.
