Sometimes it feels like I'm in a deep place of reflection, balancing the weight of my struggles with a sense of purpose. It’s powerful that even in times when you might feel like you’ve reached the limits of your own strength, you’re still able to recognize how you’re being used for a higher purpose.

Sometimes, we can feel disconnected or even unworthy of God’s calling when life’s challenges seem overwhelming. But I think, just like it's mentioned, God often works through those very imperfections to bring about something greater. Maybe that sense of "what more can I do for this Church?" is part of the process of recognition —recognizing that even in our brokenness, we are part of something much bigger, and that God sees potential in us even when we can’t see it ourselves.

I really believe that the journey we're on, even if it’s difficult, is shaping us for something extraordinary, even if the world can’t yet see it clearly. How do you feel about the ways you’re being used right now? Have there been moments where you’ve seen the impact of your actions, even when you weren’t expecting it?
