What is in MY Hand?

Exodus 4:2a. ~ And the Lord God said unto Moses, What is in your hand?

Every Christian needs to ask themselves, "what is in my hand that I can use to honor, glorify, and serve God?". Every child of God has something that they can use for Him. Even if it seems small and unimportant, God uses the small things.

You don't see many wise, mighty, or noble men called to do great things for God. God uses the "foolish to confound the wise...the weak to confound the strong." (1 Cor. 1:26&27)

In 1 Samuel, David, a rather insignificant young man, took his staff (note: he was a shepherd, his staff was something that he [had in his hand] most of the time!), five smooth rocks, and his sling. With these small tools, he slew Goliath, the mighty Philistine warrior. This ordinary shepherd became Israel's greatest kings; why? Because he used "what was in his hand." (1Samuel 17:40)
