"I didn't ask for this, I don't want to be here, but I’m here... so Lord, use me." 👇
Think about the Apostle Paul. God allowed him to be thrown into prison, and Paul completely understood the reality of his situation. His attitude wasn’t one of defeat, but of surrender: “Well, Lord, now I’m here and I can’t go anywhere. So use me where I’m at for Your glory.” See, that’s exactly where God wants all of us to get.
You might look around your current circumstances today and think, I don’t know why I’m here. I didn’t ask to be here. I definitely don’t want to be here. But you know what? You are there. And the Lord knows it.
When we shift our perspective from "Why is this happening to me?" to "God, use me in this no matter what," everything changes. He is the God who fulfills His purpose for us, and He is masterfully working all things together for good.
No matter where you find yourself today, God can use it. Let Him.
📖 Scripture to anchor your heart today:
Philippians 1:12-14 – Seeing how chains can actually advance the gospel.
Psalm 57:2 – Crying out to God Most High, who fulfills His purpose for me.
