LORD, MAKE ME!!

"MAKE ME to go in the path of thy commandments, for therein do I delight" Psalms 119:35. As we are approaching the end of the year 2015, my prayer is "MAKE ME LORD A USEFUL VESSEL" for you in the year 2016. How about you? See, when you are full of yourself, God can't fill you. But when you empty yourself, God has a useful vessel. Matthew mentions his own name only twice in the Gospel and in his list of Apostles, he assigns himself the eighth spot. John even doesn't mention his name but call himself "the other disciple or disciple whom Jesus loved". Luke, wrote two of the most important books in the Bible but never once penned his own name. Psalmist above prays "O Lord, make me". My prayers for the year 2016 are: 1) Make me a channel of blessing that flows into the lives of others. 2) Make me a vessel of salvation to those who stand in need of pardon. 3) Make me an ambassador of peace in a world torn by strife, hate, and war. 4) Make me a healing balm for the hearts that mourn and break. 5) Make me an example for those who might not change, if they did not have a pattern to follow. Bro: If we will commit ourselves to doing what we suppose to do, we will discover a joy of service that we never knew existed. We will find that Peace and good feeling we long for, and be a blessing to others. And our Lord will be pleased, you think so? NOW JUST DO IT. JUST JUST DO IT, Y'ALL HEAR ME?
