For many years of my life I did not feel like I was worthy to serve God. I did not feel that I could do anything right in God’s eyes. I felt like I was a sinner that didn’t know anything about the bible. I felt like I was just a guy that went to church and could never say a prayer, read scripture, or teach a lesson. I was not born with a bible in my hand, and didn't feel worthy because I didn't grow up in the church.
Today I am here, and I'm WORTHY! Through the principles and steps of Celebrate Recovery I feel worthy to serve God. I now feel that God has offered me grace and forgiveness over my unworthiness. I feel that He has given me trials in my life to lead me to become the person I am today. Today I look forward to saying a prayer, reading scripture, and teaching a lesson.
Last week I was honored to go into a college classroom and speak about Celebrate Recovery in front of 32 college students. I felt worthy to do this. I feel like God has prepared me to be a minister and serve Him in this way.
Worthiness only comes from God. I truly believe that God has delivered me from the past and will continue to lead me in the future. I now realize that I don’t have to know everything in the bible and I don’t have to know everything about life. All I have to do is look towards God and he will get me through.
So, do you feel worthy to serve our God?
Grateful Believer,
