God is not handcuffed by our limitations.

"And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few" (1Sam. 14:6).

I'm always encouraged when I'm reminded that God is not handcuffed by my limitations. When we are faithfully doing what God has called us to do for his kingdom we can trust that he will work for us, whether we are few or many, rich or poor, young or old. In fact, he specializes in using ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Paul wrote, "For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise..." (1 Cor. 1:26-27). God is most glorified in the lives of those who in their weakness trust him to do what only he can. Trust him to use you for his glory.
