"He Used Dirt"

     Have you ever had a time in your life when you felt like there was no way that God could use you to His glory?  You felt that you had no talents, weren't worthy, or a million and one other reasons why you were unusable?  Here's a thought for those times:

     Genesis 2:7 tells us that God used dirt from which to form Adam.  Now folks, I don't know about you but it seems to me there is nothing more humble and lowly than dirt.  I mean even the word "d-i-r-t" sounds so simple . . . and . . . well . . . useless.  Take "eucalyptus" now that's a word for you!  Think about it.  It's not simple, but rather a complex word that kind of rolls off the tongue, an important Latin-sounding word like a medical or legal term. That's something it sounds like God might create something as wonderful as man out of.  But no . . . He used dirt.

     Now if God could use something as simple as dirt to create something as amazingly intricate as man do you not think He can use even your simplest of talents in for His glory?
