“I believe there has never been an ordinary child born on this planet ever.” – Erwin McManus
Read 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 and journal your thoughts
Have you ever just felt ordinary? Just like you’re another part of the crowd, just like everyone else? Or perhaps you feel like a number or a statistic? We ask ourselves, who are we? Or maybe a better question to ask is; Who are we becoming? The problem is when we look at the world we see a lot of people both in the church and out, who live and die very ordinary lives. If we’re not careful, after seeing enough people live ordinary lives, we can fall into the trap of accepting the ordinary as well.
We need to be reminded that while many extraordinary people die ordinary, that is not our standard of life. God has created each one of us to be extraordinary, to do amazing things. He has created us with different gifts and passions. On the surface some of these gifts may even seem ordinary, but when we combine them with the movement of God in our world then amazing things begin to happen.
Today may you see that your gifts and abilities when paired with the work of God become extraordinary
