Know the plans I have for you plans for good and not for evil plans for hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
I feel that God is calling me to serve Him. I don't know in what capacity yet. I want to  witness and bring others to Christ. I want to lead Bible studies and women. I am frail and human and so imperfect. But God says this:
2 Corinthians12;9-10 9And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.10Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
In my weakness relying on Him I am stronger than in my strength.
God my prayer is that you use me the way that you want to. That I be fully submitted to your will for my life.
Show me what you want . Give me utterance to speak and not be afraid of saying the truth.
Fill me with Your Spirit and give me utterance.
Acts 2:4 - And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
I want to love the way He loves and let Him live in me.
19"For through the Law I died to the Law, so that I might live to God. 20"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. 21"I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."
I am a sinner. I am so sorry for my sins. They grieve my heart as they grieve God's. Sin leaves scars on us. But I have been cleansed of my sin with my confession and repentance.
