God Works through You (Part 2)

b'God often works through people in amazing ways. Some biblical examples of Him working through people include:\\n\\u2022 Working through Joseph to save the country of Egypt from famine by making Joseph a ruler under Pharaoh. Joseph predicted the famine would come and told the Egyptians to store up grain in preparation for it (Genesis 41:25-36; 47:13-27).\\n\\u2022 Working through Moses to free God\\u2019s people from slavery in Egypt (Exodus 6:6).\\n\\u2022 Choosing Mary to be the mother of Jesus, who saved the entire world from sin and death (Luke 1:30-33, 38).\\nYou might be asking, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153How can God work through me? I don\\u2019t know if I could do amazing things like Joseph, Moses, or Mary!\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d\\nDon\\u2019t worry\\u2014you don\\u2019t have to put that kind of pressure on yourself! God was the One who did those things, and that same God lives in you if you know Jesus. He has given you many abilities to use in your life: your sense of humor, your compassion, your encouragement of others, and your willingness to help. No matter the abilities God has given you, God will use you to bring about His kingdom. \\u2022 Alexis Wohler\\n\\u2022 Why does God use us to help bring about His kingdom? \\n\\u2022 What are some ways you can use the gifts God has given you? \\n\\u2022 The people in this list were normal, flawed, sinful people, just like we are. But God used them to do incredible things. How does this affect the way you view your ability to serve God?\\nFor it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
