“I was unsure of how to go about this and felt totally inadequate—I was scared to death, if you want the truth of it—and so nothing I said could have impressed you or anyone else. But the Message came through anyway. God’s Spirit and God’s power did it, which made it clear that your life of faith is a response to God’s power, not to some fancy mental or emotional footwork by me or anyone else.”

Are you thinking of starting your own business? Do you want to be the boss? Or maybe you want to start small – like trying a new recipe? Or a massive shift into a new career? But you have no idea where to begin?

Don’t worry – even Paul didn’t know how to walk out his calling.

Paul was unsure how he should even begin – “how to go about this.” You are in good company if you feel “totally inadequate” – so did he!

So today, realize that if you are meant to do something – or say something to people – God will speak through you. “The message came through anyway.” Often the Message comes through despite us. God can still work through us on our behalf – don’t worry. Just obey and do your part! He will help light your path!
