Insufficient at my best

I spend so much of my time trying so hard to be prepared, ready, and equipped to do the work of the gospel, and it seems that in moments where it matters most, my best is still like, "filthy rags." Again following along with the theme of dependence, I guess I shouldn't be surprised by this. The amazing thing, and the thing I take great comfort in, is the reality that it seems God finds a way to make good of and use my utter failures to still further his kingdom. For that, I am a grateful man tonight.
