2 Corinthians 4:1 (NIV) says, "Therefore, since through

God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart." Wait, I have a

ministry? I didn't know. The Bible is full of things we didn't know were

ours. Wealth, blessing, favor, restoration, a healed heart, healing,

authority - God's word lists a litany of things you maybe didn't know

were yours. I just got a truck with great big tires. It was riding funny

so I took it in and my tire guy said one of the tires was defective. I

found a receipt and called to see if the tire was under warranty. Turns

out it was. We just need to call on the Lord to find out what exactly is

available to us. Here we find we have something many didn't know we had.

A ministry. And you say, "Hey I didn't go to Bible school, I'm not

qualified. My resume would be rejected." But it said that it was because

of God's mercy, not your qualifications. Jesus qualified

you.
