God Chose Me to Be Ordinary
God chose me to be an ordinary person! He could have made me smarter, more talented, and more beautiful if he had chosen to—but his hands lovingly shaped me just the way he wanted me to be. Why? Because my ordinariness, when surrendered to God, allows him to make a miracle out of my life in much the same way as when he fed thousands of hungry people with two tiny fish and five loaves of bread nearly two thousand years ago. Truly, little becomes much when we place it in his hands.

God has created us the way we are...not too much or too little. We are God's workmanship...unique in His eyes. Therefore, God chose us to be ordinary so that we could depend on Him whatever we ask for His name.
It took me 40 years to get across the desert to the resting place of My Lord. To realize all He requires is a humble Heart to serve Him.Your will Lord,not Mine.Because your ways are much Higher than mine.And Your ways are more exalent!When we learn this He can Heal or minds and hearts!! He has blessed me so much and I will ever praise His Name for what He has done for me and What He will do.
Hi! I'm from Indonesia. Thank you for posting this article. I believe it is true: He created us so unique, beautiful, talented, and perfect in His eye. He created us to be ordinary so He can do and show extraordinary things in our life!
Thanks.
Have a nice,er..great day with Jesus :)
As He says in the Bible, we are like clay and God the potter; He molds us to the shape He wants. We must pray for his will and let Him use us for the benefit of glorifying Him and helping others. Be happy, be the individual you were meant to be.
I spent many years trying to be what others thought I should be, and the pressure was unbelievable ... until I found and felt the peace that comes with being who God created me to be. It's not only okay, but it is God's best for me.
