old chapels

i decided that since the devos on baseball chapel are so short, and since some of them pertain mostly to baseball wives, i'll read a couple each day to get even more out of this whole chapel thing. so, from october 2, 2006, here's the thought for the day:

“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service.” 1 Timothy 1:12

"There is no doubt that God uses His people. He places us in specific places where we will be most useful to Him. Over the years I've learned that wherever we are is exactly where God wants us to be...Every person we come in contact with is entrusted to us by God. We may have two years or maybe only two seconds to make an impact. As the Lord laid these thoughts on my heart and mind, I began to think about the people He entrusted to me this past week...Now the question I must ask myself is, “Did I please God with how I spent my time with these precious people?”...I'm so honored that God counts me worthy enough to place people in my path. I will strive harder every day to pay more attention to everyone God gives me..."
