GOD WANTS TO USE YOU!

God wants to use you to point others to Jesus

We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.Romans 8:28 (New American Standard Bible)

GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU TO WASTE YOUR EXPERIENCES

Embrace your experiences

Jesus… Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame.Hebrews 12:2 (New Living Translation 2nd Ed.)

Learn from your experiences

Journal your experiences:

  • What were the benefits of this experience
  • What pattern do I see developing in this experience
  • What lesson have I learned from this experience

Use your experiences to help others

[God] comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When [others] are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us2 Corinthians 1:4 (NLT)

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.Proverbs 27:17 (NLT)

  • There are those of you who are COMFORTABLE with your life stories.
  • There are those of you who are sitting ON your stories.
  • Then there are those of you who are sitting IN your stories.
