A Tool in His Hands

A tool is not worth anything until it is used. If I am a hammer, I can’t pound a nail if someone does not pick me up and put muscle behind me. To be a tool in God’s hands, I must allow Him to pick me up and put His spiritual muscle behind me. I have no skill or power on my own, but as a tool in His hands, my skill is limitless; my strength is assured. Unlike a hammer, I have a will to surrender. I might try to hammer that nail myself, but it will be crooked, and even bent. My power is limited, and my view is flawed. His view of that nail is perfect, and in His hands, I can hit that target perfectly. Consider the tool He has called you to be, and allow Him to empower your target–your vision.
