The Part is Yours

Jeremiah told God, “I cannot speak, for I am a youth”   Sound familiar?  Have you been saying, “I don’t have what it takes?  God told Jeremiah, “Do not say, I am a youth, for you shall go to all to who I send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak.  So not be afraid of their face for I am with you.”  After actors audition for a part, the director conducts what are know as “callbacks.”  At that point the actor either gets the part or it goes to someone else. But when and actor is experienced and well known, sometime the director will offer the part without an audition.  Understand this; God doesn’t do auditions and callbacks.  That’s because He’s already designed a role for you that nobody else can fill.  Even if others were to study you endlessly they still couldn’t by you.  When God says, “I know you by name and you have found favor with me,” be careful about responding to any other call except the one that comes from Him.  Since God designed you with the built in qualifications you need, you don’t have to compromise your convictions, manipulate, drop names or do special favors.  The part is yours!  And don’t be jealous or intimidated by anyone else no matter how talented they are.  In God’s eyes there are no other contenders; you are it!  You are the only one who can fill the slot because He created it with you in mind.  When you feel insecure and unqualified, remind yourself, I have been called by God Himself.”
