The next time you feel like GOD can't use YOU, just remember....

* Noah was a drunk * Abraham was too old * Isaac was a daydreamer * Jacob was a liar * Leah was ugly * Joseph was abused * Moses had a stuttering problem * Gideon was afraid * Sampson had long hair and was a womanizer * Rahab was a prostitute * Jeremiah and Timothy were too young * David had an affair and was a murderer * Elijah was suicidal * Isaiah preached naked * Jonah ran from God * Naomi was a widow * Job went bankrupt * John the Baptist ate bugs * Peter denied Christ * The Disciples fell asleep while praying * Martha worried about everything * The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once * Zaccheus was too small * Paul was too religious * Timothy had an ulcer * Lazarus was dead!
Jesus does not pick the qualified;
He qualifies those He picks.
He qualifies those He picks.

I'd like to share an exchange I had with a friend after I posted this message on Facebook. Perhaps some of you may be asking the same question.
Thomas: @Josette, I guess Noah had a platypus on the boat. So, why is that they are only in one area of the world?
Josette (Me): @Thomas, I don't know. Why don't you ask God and then let me know what you find out. ;)
Thomas: @Josette, Same thing with the whales and the dolphins? I just asking you Jo? Apparently you may have some inside information that I don't.
Josette: @Thomas, why would you say that "I may have some inside information that you don't?" I wasn't there. But like I said since it's important for you to have this question answered just ask God yourself.
Josette: @Thomas, while I was writing my last comment it came to me... Noah built the Ark because God warned of an imminent flood that would engulf the whole earth right? Well I guess it would be safe to say that ALL water creatures were SAFE and didn't need to be kept in Noah's Ark.
Thomas: @Josette, thank God you know that stuff!
