"By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name." (Hebrews 13:15 KJV)
""Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the vows you made to the Most High. Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory."" (PSALM 50:14-15 NLT)
There are certain times when we feel totally useless when it comes to being useful to serving the Lord, even in the ministry or in doing things which we are actually felt called to do. It is really not that we are useless or incompetent, but it is more about letting go and letting God work through us, not us trying to work through God!
The thing that makes this seem easy to understand, is not really a plan or making a list of what you should do; because those are the things that we have been taught through secular understanding. God's way of doing things in our lives are simple, one step at a time; where He makes the way, even when there is no way; because it is His plan and not our own.
Hopefully that makes some kind of sense to someone; because it is not us that has the wheel; thankfully! If there is anything that goes wrong, and it is not us trying to make things happen, then it will be God's fault; but His faults, (so to speak,) are always for good reasons...
"In that day you will sing: "I will praise you, O LORD! You were angry with me, but not and more. Now you comfort me. See God has come to save me. I will trust in him and not be afraid. The LORD GOD is my strength and my song; he has given me victory."" (Isaiah 12:1-2 NLT)
