If God Chose!
If God chose just the tall and handsome,
Saul he'd choose we all agree.
But poor Zacchaeus, short and homely,
Would be left up in that tree.
If God chose just the wealthy,
Joseph, he could surely use,
But the lad with loaves and fishes,
I'm afraid that he'd refuse.
If God looked for those with wisdom
Solomon could pass the test,
While the man possessed with devils
Is refused his deep request.
If God sought for men of strength
Look at Samson standing there,
As poor Lazarus, sick and trembling,
crawls away in sad despair.
If God only sought the worthy,
Perhaps Timothy--who can tell?
But this takes all hope away,
From the woman at the well.
But his call to men is always,
"Come ye, whosoever will.
From the least unto the greatest,
Come to me, I love you still."
Blessings!

Oh, my! So many posts this morning have dealt with my perfectionism. I'm so hard on myself. Then I read this and I know why God delayed me reading it.
It reminds me I can be used by God whatever my condition. He's loving enough to use anyone - perfect or not. I need to surrender to Him.
