The Two Legged Dog!!!

As I was waiting for my coffee at Bigby with my good friend Amanda we saw this 2 legged dog walk across the parking lot. It was so random, yet it brought such joy to my life. It only had its front legs so it balanced on them and it's butt stuck way up in the air. It was quite an amazing thing to see. The craziest thing was that the dog got around just fine with only its two legs. It's like the dog didn't even notice it had a problem. He just walked around like any other dog pretty much.

As I sat there catching up with my friend I started to think about that dog. How he was just as mobile as any other dog and he seemed okay with only having two legs.
I also pondered how I sometimes find myself thinking that "God can't use me. I'm still really young and I'm not the strongest Christian" I sometimes feel like that dog, but instead of using what God has given me I start to think I'm unworthy.

Do you feel that way sometimes??? Do you feel unworthy of God's love and grace in your life??? Do you sometimes think that you're not good enough to be used by God??? Or that you've screwed up too much for God to use you???

Let me tell you something. You are good enough for God. Why? Because of what Jesus did on the cross some two thousand years ago. He paid the price so that we could be good enough.

I hope that you'll remember what Jesus did you for you and me. And that you'll remember that you are good enough. No matter what you've done God will always accept you :)

Just think about that dog that only has two legs, and he gets around just fine...and so can we


just being honest,
Joe
