I’m nothing special...

I was talking with the kiddos the other day and was reminded again today in church about the story of the burning bush. What made the bush special was not the bush itself but rather that God was “within the bush” Ex.3:4. What made Moses special was not Moses himself but rather that God said, “I will be with you” Ex.3:12. As believers we are nothing special but “I can do all things through him who gives me strength” Phil 4:13. The Strength is not my own it is Christ’s. Christ gave us the mandate to “GO” but didn’t send us out in our own strength. We can accomplish this only because of the closing sentence in Matthew, “I am with you always even to the end of the age.” Matt 28:20

I am not special, Christ is special in me.
