As I consider the apostle Peter’s life and ministry two things seem to stand out above all the rest. First, God’s ability to use ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. Peter was no towering intellect, nor was he a man of extraordinary insight or courage. He was a working man, a fisherman. This is the very thing that makes him so remarkable. He is so much like us. And if God could use an ordinary man like Peter, then surely, He can use ordinary people like you and me.
“Take a good look, friends, at who you were when you got called into this life…Isn’t it obvious that God deliberately chose men and women that the culture overlooks…”
-- 1 Corinthians 1:26-27 (MSG)
Lord Jesus, thank you for choosing a nobody like me. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
