God Uses Misfits

             I truly believe at times we fell as if because we are unconventional or considered misfits that God doesn’t use us. You don’t have to be a part of a secret group or society in order to be used by God.   If you have ever been a part of a group or organization and you felt as if you didn’t fit in know this the reason you may not fit in with certain groups is because God may have another assignment for you. We are all here to edify the body of Christ. Just because you don’t fit in doesn’t mean that you can’t bring souls to God.  I woke up this morning with this in mind God uses misfits or unconventional saints.  Start to look at the things you have gone through and realize that the things you have been through will be your drawing card to bring others into Christ.  People need someone who they can relate too.  You can’t tell me anything if you have never been through anything.  My plea to you is this - no matter if someone has made you feel as if you don’t belong don’t allow that to be the reason you stop living for God. When someone mistreats you or makes you feel like you’re not accepted that is your time to pray for those who don’t have an understanding of you or your ministry.  Church has been a part of my life since I was a child and there is nothing like a feeling that you don’t belong. It’s like high school the cool kids hang together, the head bangers hang together and then you have the jocks and cheerleaders. Understand this you may not be able to fit in with each group but know that you all are a part of the same union – meaning you all attend the same school which means there is one center element which connects you all.  Everyone desires to make it to heaven and that’s our ultimate goal so whatever you do please make sure during your walk you don’t create collateral damage along the way.   If you don’t fit in don’t get upset just realized that God has something different for you.  Some of us will never fit in. It’s like putting a puzzle together were all of the pieces are square and you’re a circle.   My mind goes to John the Baptist – he was unconventional.  Please believe me I don’t think I could eat what he did in the bible.  He spoke on being saved and to turn away from sin.  I say this to encourage you if you feel as if you don’t fit in God has a purpose for you. He has a plan.  Don’t allow the thoughts of others to deter you from doing God’s will.  Remember God loves everyone – even misfits.
