I Make No Mistakes

The Lord is saying:  I Am here and I Am with you.  Each of you have a special place in My heart, for I created you the way you are.  Many of you have negative feelings about yourselves because you are different from everyone else, but this is by My design.  I have great plans for each of you, but you cannot do what I have assigned for you if you have the same characteristics as another.  I created each of you unique in My eyes, so that you can fulfill a specific role in My kingdom.  So, when you have feelings of inadequacy because others around you seem to have smoother paths, know that they struggle differently than you, and therefore I have another task for them.  When you have these negative feelings, come to Me and I will show you your worth to Me.  Each of you has your place, just like parts of the body all work together in their roles.  My Body is being built up with living stones, each different from the others, but all necessary in order to function correctly.  And I make no mistakes.

 

1 Cor 12:12-31 (ESV) For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13  For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. 14  For the body does not consist of one member but of many. 15  If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 16  And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 17  If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? 18  But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. 19  If all were a single member, where would the body be? 20  As it is, there are many parts, yet one body. 21  The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 22  On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23  and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, 24  which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, 25  that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26  If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. 27  Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. 28  And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. 29  Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? 30  Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? 31  But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.
