There is a myth that comes from our soul’s enemy that “God can only use perfect people, or at least people that are better than you”.  This little false narrative that turns over in our minds is meant to keep us from attempting anything for God; it also hinders our prayers, and believing that ours can make a difference.  It is meant to silence our voice and paralyze our service.  Break out!  Break through!  God uses lots of imperfect people to do some amazing things.  Truth is, that is all He has to work with, folks just like me and you.  This way we can make no boast and take no credit.

“Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently…” (James 5:17a)
