I'm pretty sure that every. single. person. reading this can probably write a better blog than me. I'm pretty sure that most of you probably read through my blogs and mentally point out the bazillion grammatical errors that I make in every post.
In every single thing that I do, I know for a fact that there are a bazillion people on Earth that can do it better than me.
And I'll tell you what, that used to (and sometimes still does) stop me from doing them.
Second, I open myself up to be taught by people who are better at it than me. So, if you want to correct my grammar and instruct me about how to do it the right way...maybe I'll make less errors in the future. Which means I have to be humble and open to being taught. There is no room for pride amongst growth.
So what's my point?
Is there something you want to do but are afraid to try because you know that other people are better (or just as good) at it than you are? Guess what!? That will always be the case. But there is room in God's plan for you.
Whatever it is...cooking, keeping your home, singing, writing, gardening, losing weight, reading your Bible, starting a new career...don't let fear keep you from doing it. Think you're inadequate? Well maybe you are (I KNOW I am)...all the more glory it will bring to God when He displays his power by accomplishing something awesome in you!
Whether you're a ten talent man or a one talent man...use what you've got, do what you love and learn as you go!
God is awesome. And NOTHING, yes NOTHING, is impossible for HIM.
This brought tears to my eyes. Because I'm constantly impressed by your insights and quiet wisdom. Thank you for being you, Hannah. I'm so glad I'm getting to know you.
ReplyDeleteWell, I for one, am always happy to see someone TRYING. I'll never call you out publicly for your grammar, but if you're concerned, be sure to keep an eye on my blog. Keep inspiring those around you to do their best for Him.
ReplyDeleteInteresting to see this again a year after you wrote it. I don't see anything that needs to be corrected, and if I don't see it, Baby Girl, no one sees it! You and I both know that we need to quit listening to the lying voices in our heads. I'm a lousy blogger too, you know. At least that's what the voices say. I'm trying to ignore them. You try too.
