We allow fear to cripple us, and we count ourselves out, detailing our disqualifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">One thing we forget is that when God calls us, He does so because of Himself and His plan; it&#8217;s not really about us. Also, He doesn&#8217;t do things half-heartedly, or have incomplete projects or purposeless things. Everything He starts, He completes successfully! Everything He does has generational implications for His plans for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1\">Our calling requires us to place our focus on Him and be assured that He will equip us with the skills, wisdom, and knowledge we need to accomplish those tasks. It&#8217;s a matter of trusting the One who called us instead of trusting ourselves. We have to walk into those terrifying places and tasks with one assurance: that He who called us will accomplish the task through us as we place our total hope in Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>God has a way of calling people with no experience to projects and missions of great generational impact and importance.
