John 1:14,17 NIV  The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. 

17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

The whole point of my blog is to encourage it's readers to dig into the word of God and find out what he has to say to us. It seems like a very important thing to want to know but it can be overwhelming to get the big picture from such a large book.

The NIV Grace and Truth Study Bible is a great way to give you a larger perspective of the overall story of grace and truth. The Bible is easy to understand with the information contained in the notes and the references to other portions of scripture that apply to what you are reading.

Most of the notes throughout the Bible are an explanation of several verses at a time helping you to understand broad concepts of truth rather than spending time in deep details. The information in the notes is a fresh perspective for long time readers and Bible students but it isn't overwhelming for new readers to grasp.

Who Am I

The unqualified get called to serve God.

Video - Casting Crowns "Who Am I?"

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth

Would care to know my name

Would care to feel my hurt

Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star

Would choose to light the way

For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am

But because of what You've done

Not because of what I've done

But because of who You are

I am a flower quickly fading

Here today and gone tomorrow

A wave tossed in the ocean (ocean)

A vapor in the wind

Still You hear me when I'm calling

Lord, You catch me when I'm falling

And You've told me who I am...

I am Yours, I am Yours

Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin

Would look on me with love and watch me rise again

Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea

Would call out through the rain

And calm the storm in me

Part of the good news of the Bible is that I don't have to be a somebody in any way in order to be used for God's plans. The Bible proves to me over and over again that God isn't partial to people that have it all together or those that are well trained for a task.

In the previous blog post from the book of Exodus we saw that Moses became an ordinary man with nothing to offer before he was called by God to lead his people. God didn't care about his trophies or his list of credentials that he got through his worldly education in the palace of Pharaoh.

The Unqualified Get Called

Who am I that somebody so incredible, powerful and righteous would care about me and desire to be intimate with me? I pray that I will never get over the awesome wonder that God would treat me so well when I deserve nothing from him.
