When You Feel Unqualified
God uses ordinary people.
Stepping out despite your doubts.
The big idea
God isn't looking for the qualified — he qualifies the willing.
What does “When You Feel Unqualified” walk through?
I Am Sends You
Exodus 3:14 · KJV
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM.
In plain English
God told Moses: I AM. The eternal one. Beginning and end. Always was, always will be.
His Name Is Enough
Moses felt unqualified too. God's answer wasn't 'you're enough' but 'I AM.'
Power in Weakness
2 Corinthians 12:9 · KJV
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.
In plain English
He said: my grace is enough for you. My strength shows up best in your weakness.
His Strength, Not Yours
You don't have to be enough. He is. Step out anyway.
Pray
Lord, I feel small. Use me anyway. I'll go because you go with me. Amen.

What is God calling you to that feels too big?
