2 Corinthians 12:9-11(KJV)9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
11 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.

Some days I seem to be at the end of myself. I feel as though I am empty and have nothing to give. Yet when someone makes a demand on the gift, He is there. He answers them through me. He heals them through me. It is no longer I that lives, but He that lives through me. The gifts are not for us they are for others.
If you have never depended on God for your needs and especially for the needs of other then you have never known Him in this area. God is waiting for you to just obey whatever He asked you to do. A heart meant "Yes", is all God needs to get His will done and many times that "will" will be done through you to those you love and maybe even those you have never met before.
Want to live a life of excitement? Yesterday He gave me a perfect parking place in the pouring down rain. Then when I was leaving the parking lot as the rain was pelleting down I saw a young woman carrying groceries and being drenched. I offered her a brand new (www.remarkablewoman.org) umbrella. It was a perfect moment where God allowed me to intervene and help another human being. At first she was apprehensive but then a guy in another car yelled, "Hey take the umbrella I will stop." He stopped traffic with his car for only a minute for her to grab the umbrella and go. The smile on her face was full of gratefulness.
God, I was so thankful I got to be a part of Your grand plan in such a small way.
Look for ways to help others everyday. Make the world a better place by being a better you and allowing Christ to work through you.
