Even if I am
    unskilled in speaking...

              2 Corinthians 11. 6

(What matters is not our skills,
           or strengths,
           or achievements,
but our faithfulness to God.
"It is not I who live
         but Christ who lives in me."
When we are faithful,
     seek Him in our work,
     pursue with excellence
             what is before us,
     God redeems.
Even if we are unskilled
     --or think that we are--
   even then God can use us
     when we give Him our all
   when we do our very best,
   and let Him bring about the outcomes..
God will redeem,
       if we are faithful to Him
and respond in love to Him
      in whatever
        He has placed before us.
God gives the strength and wisdom 
       and how to navigate.
God brings His glory to it.
Even in this.)

O LORD,
Help us to realize that
    Your work is not divided
    into great and small.
Neither is ours.
There are no small obediences,
     no insignificant work,
     no unusable details.
Almighty One,
      use us for Your glory today.
Help us to approach our work
       with a new heart
       and to see Your hand.
Your work is not limited
       by our skills
       or our lack of them.
Be glorified in this.
Align our hearts with Yours.
