Assignment

Don’t be giving excuses for what God has for you to do in this lifetime. I’ve had a multitude of teachers and professors instructing me in my life. However, the one with the best information about the subject matter and who had the most impact on my life carried only a sixth-grade education. I’m not putting down education because I hold a Master of Christian Studies degree. This man knew his calling to the ministry and didn’t use his lack of degrees to hinder him.

Moses was faced with this decision at eighty years of age:

Exodus 4:10-12

 But Moses said to the Lord, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.”  Then the Lord said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord?  Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.” 

Don’t argue with God about your assignment in life. He has been assigning individuals for different tasks for a long time and knows what we are capable of.

Give it some thought.
