Ready For the Big Time

Very few individuals jump into the big time, though most would prefer doing just that. As soon as we walk across that stage and get our diploma, we think we are ready for the big time. Our slick resume makes us look like a combination of Joan of Arc, Winston Churchill, Donald Trump, and Mother Theresa.

But that is not God's way. He prepares His servants most often through extended periods of waiting, designed to hone skills and break self centered wills, to shape character and give depth. While He works we must be patient, for we are being made ready.
