Romans 11:19-29 - How to Get Gifts

You can find this scripture here.

That last part really got me. "For the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable." I cannot deny that which has been given to me by God, and I cannot ignore my calling. And now that God has give me these gifts with which to serve Him and a calling to draw others to Him, He's not going to take them away.

God has called me to do things that are greater than me, things that I cannot do on my own. When I realize my need for Him, I can go to Him so He can give me what I need for that moment. And then, when I'm able to accomplish all that He had planned for me, there's no way I can brag or think that it was something I did on my own. It was all Him.

So, we need to realize how weak we are, and how desperately we need Him, as well as how eager and willing He is to give us EVERYTHING we need, if we just ask. If you are weak and know you need Him, you've never been in a better place. Now, just ask Him, and you'll get what you need, and probably even more than you expected, because our God is so good and gracious.
