Rubbish

Nehemiah 4:2 "Do they actually think they can make something of stones from a rubbish heap-and charred ones at that?” The world builds on the bright and the beautiful, but God builds on people who are charred and come from the rubbish heaps of sin and despair. The world may have disqualified you, but the fact that you're messed up qualifies you for the grace of God. Jesus came for the sick and not the well, where sin abounds grace does much more abound. God has chosen the foolish things to confound the wise and the weak things to conquer the mighty. Nobodies are the somebodies that God uses to change the world, ordinary people doing extraordinary things through the grace, love and power of God. The world may have counted you out, but God in counting on you to be the difference maker in your world.
