Doing what I can

I, not to long ago came across this quote by an unknown author. "Do what you can being who you are. Shine as a glow worm if you can't be a star. Work like a pulley if you can't be a crane. Be the wheel grinder if you can't drive the train. Be a pliant oar if you can't be a sailor. Be the needle if you can't be the tailor. Be the sharpened sickle if you can't be the reaper." Doing what I can with what I've got is all the Christ asks of us. He provides the rest. I've tried being and doing what I'm not because it looks fun or interesting. What I've found is that nothing works right. I have gifts and talents that others don't and whats awesome is how everything works better for Christ's kingdom when I embrace those. I challenge you to embrace who you are and where your at in life, who knows Christ may be preparing you for your next greater thing!
